Possibly my 2nd favourite electro band (the first being Soulwax, also Belgian), The Subs, released an updated version of their Mitsubitchi single just 2 days ago. The single no includes a remix by Bobermann, a pseudonym of Sir Cornelius Bob of The Bloody Beetroots.

While in Europe this summer, we missed seeing The Subs play live by about a week in Amsterdam. It was probably the greatest disappointment of my life. After all, where else could I hear things like ‘Music Is The New Religion’ live?
Got some brand new edits from DJ Kue of Calvin Harris and the ever popular Ke$ha. Gotta say the Calvin mix is plenty outta-this-world.

So what’s new with Kue in 2010? Well, he’s now engaged, is working on a new project that we’ll get around to talking about, and of course makes slews of minor edits you can find over at his website. If you’ve never heard of this guy, please check out the other tracks we have of his as well as his amazing and very popular Blowfish mixtape.
As a bonus for y’all enjoy Kue’s remix of ‘Always’ by Bent. This was released sometime towards the end of 2009, but somehow we managed to miss it. Epic tune.

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard from our favourite Canadian Yacht-rocker Hemingway. Turns out he made a brief appearance in DCUP’s new Style EP offering a smooth and satisfying ride.
As of late 2009 he also released a funky retro edit of Pelifics’ ‘Forever’.

The kings of trip-hop have emerged after a very long break since their last LP, Massive Attack returns in 2010 as Heligoland appears in stores in just 5 days (February 8th). It’s been seven years since the amazing 100th Window and I am personally very excited.
As a promotional offering, Massive Attack is offering a free stream of Heligoland: Remixed via their Facebook fan page. The EP will come with the special edition of Heligoland featuring remixes by Gui Boratto, Tim Goldsworthy, Ryuichi Sakamoto & Yukihiro Takahashi, Breakage and She Is Danger.

Norman Cook and one of his many alter egos, Fatboy Slim, have been an important part of dance music culture since the late 90s. A main contributor to the big beat genre, Norman (like his peers) introduced the world to a new and evolving electronic sound influenced by late jazz and funk sounds mixed with contemporary synths and breaks. Norman, who is still active today under the moniker The Brighton Port Authority, continues to deliver new and exciting tunes featuring a wide spectrum of influence and special guests as well as supporting his label Southern Fried.
The record that started it all, You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby, was responsible for many singles that hit North American and curved my appreciation for dance music including ‘Praise You’ (video), ‘The Rockafeller Skank’ (video) and ‘Right Here, Right Now’ (video). You can easily notice how different all three tracks are, yet how amazing they are in their own right — something that really set Fatboy Slim apart from everyone else.
‘Right Here, Right Now’ is a powerful dance track with an an electrifying crescendo that still, to this day, is well known in the club environment. Australians Trumpdisco (pictured) decided to emphasize this with a small edit that really just brings the punch of the track up a decade without compromising any of its original flavour.

I came across Tommie Sunshine’s edit of Ke$ha’s ‘Tik Tok’ awhile back on the artists’ Soundcloud. This mix doesn’t really change the landscape of the track, but definitely cleans up the original for any DJ in need.

Another favourite from this years P3 Guld 2010: songstress Amanda Jenssen performing her single ‘Happyland’ from the similarly titled LP of 2008. Amanda is the 2nd place finalist of Sweden’s 2007 edition of Idol. I’m sure like other North Americans, it’s pretty shocking to see something so good come out of such mediocre programming.
We return this Saturday night / Sunday morning as per usual with another edition of THE DOCKING STATION live out of Ottawa’s 93.1 CKCU.
Check us out live right now for the next two hours from 0:00 to 2:00 EST. If you have a request feel free to give us a call at 613 520 CKCU (2528) or drop us a message in the comments below.
