It’s been far too long since our last post, but fear not! We’re plotting a comeback of sorts, so don’t give up on us yet!

For now though, here are a few tunes from YouTube-land that I, for one, can’t wait to get my hands on….

First up, an incredible collaboration between Joker and TC:

Joker & TC – It Ain’t Got A Name

Next, a teaser for a tune that we can only hope will be released on Never Say Die sooner rather than later:

SKisM – Rave Review (Teaser)

PS: hardcore did it first.

Lastly, a ridiculous Passion Pit remix from Israel’s Borgore. (Yeah, we really like Passion Pit.)

Passion Pit – Sleepyhead (Borgore Remix)

Watch the synth at the drop on this one; it’s secretly a “Live to Tell the Tale” remix as well.

EDIT: Whoa! this one actually got released today.

Dude, have you heard Passion Pit? Until recently, neither had I- but if you like somewhat happy and melodic electronica with a catchy vocal, then this one is for you (and me).

Chunk Of Change was originally created as a Valentine’s Day gift for songwriter Michael Angelakos’ girlfriend while attending Emerson College in Boston. The sound can easily be compared to that of The Postal Service.

For me, standout tracks include I’ve Got Your Number, Smile Upon Me, and Sleepyhead.
