We Plants Are Happy Plants

We Plants Are Happy Plants was an unfamiliar name on a list of up-and-coming electronic  artists I saw recently. Apparently, WPAHP is a solo 22 year old Hungarian producer who is actually quite good. I was very impressed, and I hope he'll be performing somewhere soon. His sound isn't exactly dance music as its more mellow, but it makes for good chilling sessions. WPAHP released the first collection of tracks he was working on onto iTunes, called Uitc, (Up In The Clouds), and so I won't post any of those, you should just pick them up from there, but he has been working on a few new tracks. Check them out below, and remember the name.

Armageddon (WPAHP Edit)

Emotion (WPAHP Remix)

Time (We Plants Are Happy Plants Remix) **This track is immense!!!

Superheroes (We Plants Are Happy Plants Remix) **Remix of a Daft Punk banger!!

A-Trak Running Man

Because I posted about Duck Sauce, I thought I might as well post this mix by A-Trak. Produced for a collaboration with the Nike+ program, it is the best to work out to, and makes good listening in general. Enjoy.

"Would You Like Some Duck Sauce with that?

Duck Sauce is the insane duo made up of Armand Van Helden and A-Trak. I was introduced through my love for A-Trak, because any sound that A-Trak touches immediately turns into sonic gold. Duck Sauce have so far collaborated on two singles, aNYway and this summer's Barbara Streisand which was a massive hit. Afrojack remixed it at Ministry of Sound in London at the DJ Mag Top 100 Djs party, and that turned into an instant hit as well.
Why are they called Duck Sauce? Who cares, because as A-Trak makes it clear above, The Sauce Makes the Difference.


Ok.

If you don't know Barbara Streisand, here's the original:

aaaand the O-God Remix:



About a month ago, London DJ Louis La Roche played a set for Australian radio station Triple J. Somewhere in the middle, he debuted Duck Sauce's next single, Good to Me. I can't find it anywhere on the internet yet, but it'll be up as soon as I do. In the meantime, if you're interested you can listen to LLR's edit of it if you go to minute 40 of the LLR set. Frankly, I imagine the original to be much better, but it sound pretty good. Here it is with tracklisting below for the full set:

HURTS

Hurts are a Manchester based synthpop duo that recently rocketed to the top of the UK scene. They combine melancholy tones with almost eerie sounding vocals, over a strong electronic base and they do it better than anyone else. Their music almost asks to be remixed and you should take a listen to their sound. 

When you think of a break-up song, you probably think of a Death Cab for Cutie or similarly sounding slow, sad song that echoes that break up mood. This here is a very different take on a break up song, effectively allowing you to either sit there and sulk or get up and dance. Sounds good to me. 

Hurts - Stay (Millions Like Us Remix)

HURTS - Stay (Millions Like Us Remix)

This remix is of the band's second single, and its got that 90's pop vibe to it. 

Hurts - Better Than Love (LightsoverLA Remix)

HURTS - Better Than Love (LightsoverLA Remix)

Hurts - Wonderful Life (Arthur Baker Official Remix)

The original single still deserves mention simply because its so good: Hurts - Wonderful Life

The picture above is a still from the video for this track; its a creative video to say the least.

New Glitch Mob !!

I was only introduced to the wonder that is the Glitch Mob fairly recently as I was falling asleep in a lecture. The sound I heard that day brought me straight back to the land of the living. The LA based group are immense, and their music is best characterised as beat-based electronic music fused with hip-hop. They recently announced that their newest mixtape/album will be released on Jan 12 (mark that date down on your calenders) and will be called "The Remixes Volume 1". 


Thanks to the Mob's generosity, you can download their last mixtape, "Drink the Sea Part II" straight off their site: http://www.theglitchmob.com/music/?p=737


If you want a sampler, check out these two:

We'll be back with the Glitch Mob on Jan 12!

Swedish House Mafia Until One

As promised, here is the download link to Swedish House Mafia's Until One compilation. In all honesty, considering the amount of support these three get, I wish they would put out new material more often. This album is more of a reshuffling of what we've already been listening to for a while now. Having said that, it is still SHM, and theres no doubting the quality.
