what would you do if you found out one of your friends posed in some very naughty photos? hmmmm???
listen to modeselektor and division kent?? maybe not? i sure as hell did..
well maybe after this you will too....

modeselektor always surprise me.. i always forget how....... deep their tracks are.. so intricately textured. like little pieces of art. they have managed to get thommy yorke on the mic for this track as well which pretty much means that there is no way for this song to be anything less than awesome.

Modeselektor - The White Flash (Feat Thom Yorke)

the trentemoller mix typically brings out the darker side of the track.. their tough electro days are sadly gone though with the lads instead producing more proggy and minimal beats- not my cup of tea but what the hey.
this remix is a bit more menacing than a lot of their recent work and definitely worth a listen

Modeselektor - The White Flash (Feat Thom Yorke) (Trentemoller Remix)

swiss duo division kent recently sent through one of their tracks and a couple of remixes, and i must say that im quite taken by their cool as fuck electro pop.. perfect for the contemplation of naughty friends.
'l'heure bleue' is also a very intricate track.. seriously the only word to describe with this song is 'cool'. tres cool. tres lush. good driving song too.

Division Kent - L'Heure Bleue

Division Kent - L'Heure Bleue (Keenhouse Remix)

Division Kent - Offshore (The Phantom's Revenge Remix)

the remixes are also pretty rad- i really like the keenhouse remix- really gives the track a bit of a cut-copyish twist. i think its even more lusher than the original. such good chill out music.. and dont we all love to chill out.
