My digital column in the Indo’s Day and Night magazine contains lots of juicy music recommendations this week. Links to tracks from Wave Machines, Ellie Goulding, Vega, Burial/Four Tet, Liechtenstein, The Chasms, Tiga’s awesome ‘Shoes’ (check the brilliant video), Fly Girlz, Lissy Trulie and Fred Falke remixes Grizzly Bear’s ‘Two Weeks’, The Golden Filter remix Empire of the Sun, Calvin Harris doing Passion Pit and my favourite – Classixx remixing Phoenix’ ‘Listzomania’.
