CFCF + Active Child | “Jump Out Of The Train”.

Pretty much everything that Active Child does is amazing and beautiful and just generally perfect – and he just contributed the backing vocals to CFCF’s new song, which has immediately become my favourite CFCF song ever. I obviously would have loved to hear more of Active Child, but either way, I’ll take it.

Active Child | “Evening Ceremony”.

Active Child (one of my most over-played artists of last year) has just released new material, which is set to feature on the soundtrack to The Host – where Stephenie Meyer trades vampires for aliens in her latest book-to-film adaptation. Not sure if I would have been in any way inclined to go out and buy a ticket to see it, but after hearing this song I may or may not be considering it. Listen to Active Child’s incredibly beautiful song and watch the trailer for the movie below, and you might find yourself having a similar change of heart.

Active Child just released a haunting new video for his latest single, “Johnny Belinda”.

Bonus: As far as remixes go, this is the best I’ve heard this year.

White Arrows

I first heard about White Arrows when RAC remixed “Coming or Going”, which was used in the first season of How to Make it in America. The band are about to release their debut album, Dry Land is Not a Myth, to which RAC also produced the first single, “Get Gone”. Listen to both of these songs below.

The band have also made some amazing remixes for Active Child and Alexander. The Active Child remix is particularly incredible.

I’ve come across a number of new songs recently and thought it would be best for me to share them all in one post. First up we have Jakwob’s remix of Niki & the Dove’s “DJ Ease My Mind”.

Active Child are brilliant. Watch their video for “Hanging On” below.

While Ive known about Purity Ring for a while now, I only got introduced to “Obedear” quite recently – and so glad that I did!

New remix by RAC. This time for “Grand Rapids” by Princeton.

Rangleklods just released their new video for “Riverbed”. Watch it below.

Blood Orange’s “Forget It” got remixed by Class Actress. I like it more than the original.

Not sure where I found this song but it’s quite beautiful.
