Guest mix #51 comes from Kool Thing, the Berlin-based duo made up of Jon Dark and Julie Chance. (How hasn’t anyone thought of naming their band “Kool Thing” before?) Their debut Light Games EP, which came out in January, made for a perfect soundtrack to walks in the cold winter nights, its only fault being that it is merely three tracks long. It’s available as free download so go and check it out if you haven’t already. The duo has also made remixes for Austra and Light Asylum. They are currently residing in Sydney, working on new stuff and doing shows. A new EP should be out before the Summer.
The mix starts off quietly, slowly building up to some house jams and club bangers, including Kool Thing’s take on ‘The Beat and the Pulse’ and a remix of their own track by Maya Postepski (of Austra and TRUST). They close the mix with Arthur Russell’s ‘Arm Around You’, a perfect come down and one of my favorites by him. Do I say that every time someone puts an Arthur Russell track on their mix? SO WHAT, the man happens to have loads of great songs. If you too need to be told what to do – stream and/or download this mix:
