SummersRadio™ New Music! Phantogram - 'Don't Move' Phantogram are releasing a brand new EP on November 1st! It's called 'Nightlife' and it will feature six new songs - their first new material since their debut album 'Eyelid Movies' was released in 2009 - and it's out on the Barsuk Records label.
The first new song - and second track from the 'Nightlife' EP - called 'Don't Move' has just been released online. I actually remember the band performing this song live when they opened for LCD Soundsystem way back in the spring of 2010! This is 'Don't Move'... Enjoy!
Bonus Track! Although SummersRadio™ featured this 'RAC Mix' of their underground hit 'When I'm Small' earlier this year I thought it was worth reposting as it's still available as a free download on Soundcloud courtesy of the Remix Artist Collective here:

SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Gigamesh ft. Induce - 'When You're Dancing' (RAC Remix) Matt Masurka aka Gigamesh is a dj/producer from Minneaoplis who's set to release his debut EP next month! The 'When You're Dancing' EP has a staggered release - it will be available first on Beatport on Oct. 4th - then on itunes on Oct. 18th - and everywhere else on Nov. 1st.
It will feature three tracks - the 'Extended Version', the 'Cassian Remix' and this 'RAC Remix'. And if that's not enough mixes for you there's another remix package set to follow later on featuring remixes from Moullinex, Fare Soldi, Alexander Holland, Cyclist, 'and possibly more'!
I've previously featured remixes by Portland's RAC (or Remix Artist Collective) of Phantogram, Two Door Cinema Club, and Peter, Bjorn & John. This is their latest remix - of Gigamesh's 'When You're Dancing'.
The song itself is a bit poppy - with the vocals resembling Jamiroquai back when he sounded a bit more enthusiastic. The music takes it to another level - it has a nice funky keyboard strut that only gets better as it gets layered with other spacey and squelchy keyboard sounds - and then there's horns! It kinda makes one want to - I dunno... dance! :) Musically speaking it also reminds me a bit of (a modern take on) Indeep's 1982 club classic 'Last Night A D.J. Saved My Life'.
If this song/ remix is to your liking you can download it for free courtesy of Gigamesh himself from his Soundcloud page here: http://soundcloud.com/gigamesh/gigamesh-when-youre-dancing-2 (*update - the free download has now expired but the 'RAC Remix' is available exclusively on Beatport here: http://www.beatport.com/#release/when-youre-dancing-ft-induce/685743 and you can keep up with Gigamesh on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/Gigamesh.Music?ref=ts&sk=app_178091127385

SummersRadio™ RAC Remix + Free Download! Phantogram - 'When I'm Small' (RAC Mix) The Remix Artist Collective (who just remixed Peter Bjorn & John in yesterday's post) have been together since 2007, remixing artists such as Bloc Party, Dragonette, Chromeo, The Shins, The Gossip, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, U2 and Radiohead. They released their first compilation called 'RAC Vol. 1' to celebrate their first year together - as a free mp3 release through Stereogum.
Last month they officially released 'RAC Vol. 2' online - which features remixes from artists such as Phoenix, Delorean, and this recent single from New York's Phantogram. 'When I'm Small' was first released in 2009 on the Saratoga Springs N.Y. indie label Sub-Bombin Records. They later signed with Barsuk Records and they released their debut album called 'Eyelid Movies' last February. RAC take the already memorable trip hop song and replace the guitar hook with keyboards that eventually wash through the song, making it sound even more surreal than before!
You can download either the remix itself here: http://soundcloud.com/rac/phantogram-when-im-small-rac-mix/# or the full nine track compilation 'RAC Vol. 2' here: http://soundcloud.com/rac/sets/rac-vol-2/ - both are available as a free download on Soundcloud courtesy of RAC themselves!
