Listen to Bixel Boys’ first original EP, ‘Black December’
In the wake of a string of enticing remixes, LA's own Bixel Boys can finally call an EP their own. Their debut EP, Black December, is out today on the Australian record label Sweat It Out and before it even hit the Internet en masse, the title track and its partner "Red October" have gotten some very high profile support (first on Fool's Gold Radio and also in Fedde Le Grand's recent Sensation White set in Oakland).
Hot Since 82 shares ‘Transitions’ off ‘Little Black Book’
Hot Since 82 is back on his marketing game -- sharing now his second brand new original from the forthcoming Little Black Book complication/album hybrid, due out on Jaymo & Andy George's Moda Black on October 22nd. "Transitions" as it stands is a 3:25 minute clip on YouTube, and although it's unclear whether or not this is the extent of the record it really only feels like it heats up in the last 30 seconds of what we hear. "Transitions" is lighter on its feet than most of Daley's distinct sound, but the classic vocal samples and eerie topline are replaced by a menacing bassline.

Hot Since 82 to release debut album ‘Little Black Book’ on Moda Black
Smack dab in the middle of his first-ever North American tour, Hot Since 82 will release his debut album Little Black Book on Jaymo and Andy George's renowned Moda Black label. A quick look at the tracklist to the discerning eye will show that much of this album is material Daley has been sitting on for a while, but along with the full official release of an album, he'll be including some new originals not yet shared with the public. To hype the release of the LP even more, he just announced today on his Facebook that one new song will be revealed on his website each week, starting this week with "Chords." Little Black Book will be out on October 22nd, and he starts his tour on October 10th. You can access his dates here.
