SHREM'S FUTURE ANTHEMS: "DO THAT DANCE" - Shit Robot feat. Nancy Whang + Leisure Connection Remix

Ireland's best kept electronic secret Shit Robot has just released another luminous collaborative effort with the one and only DFA prime diva Nancy Whang. Shit Robot releases his 2nd full-length album "We Got A Love" on DFA/PIAS on March 17 (UK/EU) / March 18 (US). It features guests also including Reggie Watts, Museum Of Love, Holly Backler and Luke Jenner from The Rapture.





It's also a perfect moment to remind ourselves of Shit Robot and Nancy Whang's previous and equally brilliant joint effort, the sublime "Take 'Em Up":

SHREM'S FUTURE ANTHEMS: "GET DOWN" - The Juan Maclean

Are you ready for a brand new startling dancefloor-ready anthem featuring the impossibly cool Nancy Whang? Well here's an absolute stomper by The Juan Maclean soon to be released by DFA. "Get Down" is available now as a Valentine's Day free download on NPR. As anthemic as "Happy House" which I always thought was unbeatable! Here they are together!

SHREM'S FUTURE ANTHEMS: "Le Goudron" - YACHT

YACHT's brand new single based on 1969 Brigitte Fontaine's track sounds like the best single DFA was involved in releasing in quite some time. Neon dancefloor, irresistible beat and a sizzling hot mish-mash of disco, electro and punk. My new number one tune! Download your free copy from the soundcloud clip below. P.S. Gutted I missed them playing Workman's Club here in Dublin last night...

CHOON OF THE DAY: "HOW DEEP IS YOUR LOVE" - The Rapture + Sidechain's 90's Rework

The Rapture's eponymous "How Deep Is Your Love" now finally has a video! It is easily one of the most accomplished disco punk singles in the New Yorkers' catalogue now spanning over a decade of tunes. Sidechain's 1990's rework below is absolutely ESSENTIAL!

CHOON OF THE DAY: "HORSES" - Montevideo + Mickey Rework

Hungry for some fresh disco punk DFA style? Montevideo's "Horses" should soothe all those where-is-my-new-LCD-Soundsystem-tune cravings just fine. This electrifying single by the faux-Uruguayans from Brussels is out now via Smile Recordings. Top quality production!

SHREM'S LATE MONDAY NIGHT SESSIONS... "WORK" - The 2 Bears

Well it seems like Joe Goddard is taking over Alexis Taylor's position as the busiest bee of all Hot Chip members. First we heard "Gabriel" his vastly cherished single all around the blogosphere. Now it's time for his brand new EP under the alias The 2 Bears (his collaboration with Raf Daddy) about to be released on New Year's day. Such a sunny piece of synth pop much needed these chilly winter days...

SHREM'S LATE MONDAY NIGHT SESSIONS... "I WANTED TO TELL HER" - Holy Ghost! feat. Juan Maclean & Nancy Whang

Time for another dream collaboration coming from the DFA nu-disco tent. This ultra-funky sonic threesome will sizzle up your chilly winter evenings. Nancy Whang has some set up underground dance anthems on her account at this stage, do you remember "Happy House" or "Take 'Em Up".

CHOON OF THE DAY: "LOSING MY PATIENCE" - Shit Robot feat. Alexis Taylor + Hot Chip remix

Shit Robot's excellent collaboration with Hot Chip's leader Alexis Taylor finally gets the attention it deserves with this amusing video and a bunch of fresh remixes by Hot Chip themselves among others. As good as "TAKE 'EM UP".

CHOON OF THE DAY: TAKE 'EM UP - Shit Robot feat. Nancy Whang

Nancy Whang has been gracing the dance scene with her sweet vocals for quite some time. An underground muse if you wish. From Munk to Juan Maclean, from LCD Soundsystem to... Shit Robot. Strictly cool musicians that is. This cute little video stole my heart only recently when recommended by my muso friend Jason. I was haunted by, addicted to and in love with it since.

SHREM'S INSTITUTE OF LOST CLASSICS: HAPPY HOUSE - The Juan Maclean

Here's a reminder of one of the most delicious dance records of the past 5 years. It is not James-LCD-Murphy who in my opinion is the most precious act under DFA Records... Check it out for yourself:
