There are a lot of people eagerly awaiting Soulwax’s official remix of MGMT’s “Kids” track. Only a chosen few have received promos thus far. Of course, Erol Alkan is one of those lucky few. Here is a video of Erol playing the track in his set at the T In The Park festival a couple of weeks ago. This is going to be huge!
New bootleg 12″ by Cut And Run, who added a break-beat flavor to the Soulwax Ravelight Dub of Robbie Williams’ “Lovelight.”

We are going to continue to promote the hell out of this documentary! Its going to be glorious!!
As we mentioned earlier, this documentary is going to be incredible.
If you are living anywhere near stops on the tour they are doing to promote this thing, do yourself a favor and buy a ticket. The show is going to be insane!
First, a big thank you to the good folks at Columbia Records and Sony BMG for sending us a ton of music recently. We are still going threw it all. Keep it comin! One of the highlights thus far has been the remix that Soulwax did for the movie “21.” They took a Rolling Stones classic and gave it an upgrade. They were allowed to use the original master tapes; an honor only granted to Fatboy Slim and N.E.R.D. previously.Although its a lower tempo mix, its still going to get people moving on the dance floor.

In other Soulwax news… their highly anticipated film / documentary “Part of the Weekend Never Dies” will have its premiere at the Ether Festival at the Royal Festival Hall in London on April 24th. Director Saam Farahmand filmed Soulwax on their recent international dates, capturing all the excitement, chaos and humor of the world tour . 120 shows were filmed with one camera in Europe, Japan, US, Latin America and Australia. This resulted in 2 films; a live music film and a documentary which includes 2manydj’s, Soulwax Nite Versions and features James Murphy, Nancy Whang, Erol Alkan, Tiga, Justice, Busy P, So-Me, Peaches, Kitsuné, Klaxons and many more in behind the scenes footage, interviews and LOTS of music.
SO ME takes his cheeky, 80’s inspired vision to the next level on this one. The motion design was by Machine Molle. Definitely up there with Snoop Dogg’s video for “Sensual Seduction” for video of the year thus far. Enjoy!
On another Justice related note….Annie Mac premiered a new track called “Disco Sirens” on her show last night tagged as Justice vs. Soulwax. Kind of misleading. Actually, the track is the new Midfield General single. Xavier from Justice did the bass line for the track and Dave from Soulwax mixed it. You can check it out here.
Soulwax are easily one of the most sought after production and remix duo’s in the game right now. They consistently raise the bar with each release. Recently they released a retrospective full length album called “Most of the remixes…” that is comprised of some of their best known and previously unreleased remixes. We highly recommend you pick it up. Below you will find a video that the BBC did on the Belgian duo. They got to spend the day with them in their studio talking about their process and love for vintage analog equipment. Its a great piece. Thank you to Asian Dan for the heads up on this!
And for a listen to the laundry list of their influences listen to this take on Daft Punk’s “Teachers”
