Lasting Love by Blood Diamonds, remixed by Keep Shelly In Athens
Gorilla vs. Bear: "Greece’s Keep Shelly in Athens keeps getting weirder (and better), as evidenced on this playfully creepy remix of Blood Diamonds‘ new single Lasting Love, in which the duo warps the somewhat dancey jam into a haunting number that sounds absolutely nothing like the original."

Sooner Or Later by Trifonic, remixed by Peeterson
CCMixter editor SackJo22 describes Sooner or Later: "Peeterson colors a relentless post-punk bass drive with the passionate vocal of Amelia June (via Trifonic) and a solid groove until the voice breaks down into delicate glitch only to reemerge amid a broad wash of sound, pulse and feeling."
