For better or worse, I never fell into the Editors-hype-machine-mania a while back, but I am slightly interested in the remix ep the band recently put out. A short collection… I wish they commissioned a few more mixes, but there are a few heavy hitters there including Sebastian and Ghislain Porier. That should make a couple of you sweat.
Kind of strange, but Paul Epworth’s mix is missing from the bunch. Lucky for us they’re using the Phones mix for promotion — which means we all save a buck.

Paul Epworth aka Phones also has a new single out on Kitsuné which is pretty damn rad. Radder than his Editors mix fo’ shr. Eh if I wasn’t so damn lazy I might upload it. I’m sure you can find it on the Internets via Hype Machine or stream on Phones’ MySpace.
Ohemmgee. Things just keep getting better and better in the world of Sally Shapiro. I’m starting to feel like the Sally Shapiro fan club here but… how can I resist the urge to post tracks this good? Dyylan’s remix is like total icing on the cake. I didn’t believe “Anorak Christmas” could be any sweeter than it already was, but here it is… total sugar buzz.
