Yup, the Loving Hand is pure goodness, and it turns out that the Hand has stricken again. This time the victim is Swedish favourite Lykke Li and her track Little Bit. After he made These New Puritans even weirder, Tim Goldsworthy (the man with the loving hands) now tries to make Lykke Li [...]

Joakim samples and holds

August 9, 2008

The new Simian Mobile Disco remix cd Sample and Hold is out now featuring remixes of tracks from their Attack Decay Sustain Release debut. While a lot of the remixes are fairly poor and, sorry, forgetable, there are a couple of goodies on there. Shit Robot delivers a decent mix of It’s The Beat and [...]
