Doorly & Dave Spoon = Avec

Yesterday, our good mate Doorly put together an 80-minute guest mix for us, featuring a handful of tunes we had never heard before. One of these tunes happened to be the closing track of the mix — a track called “disappearer” under a brand new project, Avec, consisting of Doorly and fellow UK producer, Dave Spoon (aka Shadow Child). “disappeared” is laden with piano and has an uplifting Disco House vibe to it. Oh ya, and did I mention that they brought in Scissor Sisters’ Jake Shears for vocals? Yes, they did. And yes, it’s as good as you’d expect from these 3 together. Out on Southern Fried Records soon. √+

HOT NATURED ft. ANABEL ENGLUND – REVERSE SKYDIVING (REMIXES)

In the spirit of the festival weekend in Indio and the debut of the Yuma tent, I thought it would be more than appropriate then to feature the incredible new remixes of Hot Natured‘s anthemic Reverse Skydiving” with the melodic siren known as Anabel Englund. The original track was a bomb across this year’s WMC, and with the help of Shadow Child, Robert James, and Deetron – it’s on course to be a staple in sets all summer long. The product is (3) great versions that cover the house spectrum immensely (Shadow Child for us takes the cake). Set the vibe for your weekend…

[PREVIEW] Shadow Child Remixes Lianne La Havas’ ‘Elusive’

I check in on Shadow Child on a weekly basis at this point. His originals and remixes all seem to consistently hit the bullseye for me, and this rings true once again with his latest remix for English singer/songwriter, Lianne La Havas. The remix is forthcoming on Warner Music in the UK, where the original “Elusive” was released last July as part of Lianne’s debut album, Is Your Love Big Enough? Listen below. √+

Delphic – Baiya (Shadow Child Remix)

Super suave Manchester band, Delphic, will be releasing their second studio album, Collections, this 28th of January on Polydor Records, just over three years since their acclaimed debut album, Acolyte, was released on the same imprint. Ten tracks make up the new album, including the first single “Baiya,” which I was overjoyed to find out has been remixed by one of my favorite producers of last year, Shadow Child. This should get you weekend-ready. √+

Shadow Child – Shadow Child EP + Mix

The first original EP of 2012 on the dirtybird imprint comes from the new side project from London’s Dave Spoon — under the devious moniker of Shadow Child. The self-titled EP consists of two original tracks, ‘String Thing’ and ‘Rustic Chip,’ which blend genre lines between Solid Groove and Drum N Bass and have both already received support and air time from some of dirtybird‘s finest, Claude VonStoke and Eats Everything. To celebrate yesterday’s release, Shadow Child put together a fantastic mix including a number of TUNES from dirtybird, Pets, and Night Slugs, as well as a handful of unreleased jams that I can’t wait to get my hands on. Stream the EP before you buy it on Beatport and download the mix after the jump. Continue Reading
