Free Download: FKA twigs - Two Weeks (Rationale Edit)

We're seeing FKA twigs live in concert next month and safe to say - we cannot wait! Luckily for us we came across this crazy good bootleg of her amazing and anthemic Two Weeks by L.A based producer Rationale. Her debut album LP1 needs a sidekick and here we have it! And yes, this will keep us rational and not stir crazy until the show, haha. It's a 7:36 minute trip into another dimension with the original stuttering beat amped up by a new tempo and sensation. The darkness and slow pulsating atmosphere is teamed with laser beams and a hands-in-the-air feeling - the contradiction is amazing. Laugh, cry? Both at the same time is the best option we have a feelin'. So much is going on here, ya'll better be prepared to hit repeat to catch it all. Enjoy! 

Free Download: BANKS - Are You That Somebody? (Aaliyah Cover) [Lincoln Flip]

BANKS goddess goodness keeps on comin' and we ain't complaining! This time it's a bootleg mix of her stunning BBC live cover of Aaliyah's Timbaland produced 1998 masterpiece Are You That Somebody?. San Diego based producer Lincoln takes the acoustic cover and builds on it with a super hot and hard synth and added drums. It's really awesome and adds a whole new dark dimension to her vocals. No sampled baby laughter like in the original of course, but still comes closer to it while bringing something fresh to the mix. It's hot, tight and showcases Jillian Banks' crazy good voice and serves as a reminder how cool the original really is. Love it! 

Free Download: Jessie Ware - Say You Love Me (Gorgon City Remix)

Jessie Ware's heartfelt pleading in Say You Love Me really tugs at our heartstrings and sends shivers. When that choir part kicks in - wow! London duo Gorgon City takes all these emotions and infuses 'em over a dark dance beat that we already can imagine being blasted out of a basement club in North London. Deep house baby! The reflective and wistful nature of the original really suits this amped up mix and it sure is nice to dance to meaningful lyrics and a deep bassline. Grab the DL below and enjoooy! 

Premiere: Lauren Flax Feat. Kim Ann Foxman - Pleasure Principle (Janet Jackson Cover)

Hell yes! Lauren Flax and Kim Ann Foxman takes on Janet Jackson's classic 1987 single The Pleasure Principle from the Control album and infuses with their deep house magical goodness! Too nice! Sigmund Freud's 1920's psychology term set to a contemporary dance beat we fully stand (well, dance) behind. And the powah of JJ naturally! The production is airy and tight plus incredibly addicitive - we're instantly hooked! As a bonus we get a KAF remix that adds an ever deeper groove plus a free download of the bangin' Eli Escobar treatment. Very awesome indeed. Happy weekend! 

Premiere: Say Lou Lou - Instant Crush (Daft Punk Cover)

Miranda and Elektra Kilbey a.k.a. Say Lou Lou celebrate signing to Columbia Records by doing a cover of label mates Daft Punk & Julian Casablancas and givin' it way (kinda) for free. Their take on Instant Crush tones down the robotics and breathes a new kind of life into the lyrics. More personal. It's airy like a cool night by a fading fire that gleams and slowly pulsates.
