Now we're playing out every Saturday night, staying on top of new tunes is becoming a real mission. By its very nature, the combination of remix culture and the free-for-all hosting provided by sites such as Sendspace means that there's a lot of shit remixes out there.
So after a good few hours of trawling through tracks, here're just a few tunes that have brightened my morning and will no doubt be finding their way onto the decks at this weekend's Shoplifters clubnight.
In honour of their chart topping album success...
MP3 Metallica - Enter Sandman (Herve Refix)
A nice reworking of one of the best tracks from one of the best British indie albums of the year...
MP3 Mystery Jets - Half In Love With Elizabeth (Delorean Remix)
See you Saturday at Odder,
Hold steady

#30 Time For 'Bed?
Shoplifters has always been about great covers as well as great remixes - anything stolen, borrowed, pinched - you get the picture.
So while we've been stuffing our new clubnight with plenty of dancefloor 'bangers' (as the kids say), this cover version jumped off the blogs at me.
Florence & The Machine is a seemingly somewhat precocious young singer songwriter with an absolutely blinding voice and while her single 'Kiss With A Fist' was something of a festival anthem this year, it's on this, her cover of Cold War Kids' 'Hospital Beds', that she really shines.

See you at Shoplifters' clubnight tonight!
Free entry, cheapo booze, late bar, Odder 9pm.
You're sure to hear this...
MP3 DJ Mujava - Township Funk (Ashley Beedle's Afrikanz On Marz Re-Edit)
