ATTENTION ALL DIRTY DANCERS OF THE SUMMER!
This year we are amped to be joining forces once again with our good buddies in Collaborative Media and Dim Mak to bring you the 2011 Pacific Festival in Orange County. The makings of the answer to a ‘SoCal Outsidelands’, the Pacific Festival is putting together the perfect balance of summer music now in a proper location for all festival-goers. With a relocated festival site to Oak Canyon Ranch (recent location of Lightning In A Bottle) and a full day of music starting @ 10am, this year’s Pacific Fest is gonna show off the true summer festival atmosphere in its deserved setting. Getting a huge boost from last year, the 2011 lineup is staggering (Just find your favorite groove makers below):

Snoballing off of my new ‘Tropicool’ alter ego and the success that has been attributed to the new set chocked full of steel drums, ocean and breeze samples, synth, cowbells and keys, I have a very special treat for you. I’ve been digging deep into the genre and the archives surfacing with many goodies hidden in both my sleeves and trunks. Within the next week, there will be 2 more installments of Waves ≠ Raves inspired by the tropicool beginning of summer sun-kissed weather. Also to top things off, our friends The Ampal Creative who we put this collab on with are releasing the Summer line of Aloha hats, that for the lack of better words, are the Frothiest lids from here to Bali.
“The waves ≠ raves consists of hand-picked gems that inspire us, tickling and tempting our creative juices. Some are old, some are new, but it is what we are listening to now. They are groovey, flowing, and sun-kissed just like that perfect wave. They are uplifting and guaranteed to put a smile on your face. They sound the best with a babe in one hand, a cold brewski in the other, and the sand beneath your feet. Stay Dreamy.”
Waves ≠ Raves Vol. 8
Familjen – Det Var Jag (Boeoes Kaelstigen’s Remix)
Penguin Prison – Golden Train (Penguin Prison Dub)
Pacific! – Unspoken (Anoraak Remix)
Cosmic Kids – Reginald’s Groove (Classixx Remix)
Jessica 6 – Prisoner of Love (ft. Antony)
Saint Etienne – Spring (Air France Remix)
¡¡Bonus!!
Dj Falcon & Thomas Bangalter – Together (Le Castle Vania & Computer Club Summer Bootleg Mix)
All Files Zipped —-> HERE <—- Kick off your shoes, put on some chapstick, and keep it casual.
Here’s the first little sneak peak of The Ampal Creative Summer line – More to come with future Waves ≠ Raves. Entitled “The Seven Seas”

It’s been almost two years since Classixx remixed YACHT’s “Psychic City” (one of Classixx’s all-time uh…classic remixes). And being the good buds that they are, YACHT are returning the favor in big fashion with their remix of Classixx’s “Into The Valley” (anchored by the soulful groove of Brooklyn’s Karl Dixon). YACHT’s remix starts off like Stevie Wonder on a pill and continues to build into a disco rave stomper. Classixx: consider the favor returned.
Be sure to hop over to Green Label Sound to get a behind the scenes look at the new video for “Into The Valley” (which some of you may actually be in!) and to see what funny chaps Michael & Tyler of Classixx really are.

While Classixx are readying their next single, “Into the Valley” (due in early March), they’ve decided to throw this little nugget of retro gold out to the public. It’s a dub edit of “Lucky Star” by Madonna that people have been going bonkers for during their recent DJ sets.
Sticking with retro artists being remixed by contemporary heavyweights, check out Mustang’s re-jiggle of “Wild Boys” by Duran Duran and Aeroplane’s remix of “Never Let Me Go” by The Human League. “Never Let Me Go” is the second single off of The Human League’s new album, “Credo”, which is set for release on March 21st.
