It was a slight suprise to me to see Two Door Cinema Club homed up with predominantly electronic label Kitsuné Music to release their debut ‘Tourist History‘. The benefit of such an arrangement must be that the Northern Irish band have access to some incredible talent when it comes to remixes.
So on top of releasing this live version for ‘I Can Talk‘ they’ve also unveiled remix work by the likes of Golden Bug, Crystal Fighters and French Horn Rebellion.
Hands Up Who Cares, our monthly club night, is back next friday (21st of May) at The Library in Islington.
We’ll be spinning tunes by Crystal Castles, TV on the Radio, WHY?, Foals, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Two Door Cinema Club, The XX and loads more Cougar favourites.
Entry is free to everybody registered as ‘attending’ on the Facebook event page and £1 to all others. Hope to see you there!
