Let’s talk about ill nu nu. Let’s talk about ill nu nu. Let’s talk about all the new things, sexy new things, I got for you. It’s super ILL nu nuuuu. (Appologies to Salt n Pepa). But seriously, kids, you know how much I love nu nu. And this time it just happens to come to us from land of berets, little black dresses and les Gaulois… no, not Bedford Avenue. La France!! And it comes from our Japanese enthusiast friends at Kitsuné. They’ve just put out another great remix compilation for all you aurally needy rabbitos. Look no further, cause these remixes will be sweet Euro music to your long, floppy ears. You can purchase all 15 great tracks on iTunes for $9.99, buy a bottle of Bordeaux (or Pinot Gris if you prefer), throw on your best stripy boat neck and rave out all night long to this killer iller remix album.

Here’s a quick run down of a few of the select jams off this great mix. First off, I’m a huge fan of Étienne de Crécy and his b-a-n-a-n-a-s live light show. Plus, this pioneer of French Touch paired with Boys Noize Records’ Les Petits Pilous is sure to be a banger, and guess what, “Hannukah” is just that! It makes me think of the plastic 80s Fashion Plates I used to mix and match as a wee cottontail jumping off the crayon colored page and raging and/or having an intense walk off with robot versions of the Thunder Cats. That may make no sense to many of you. But just listen to the song then try and fight me on that one.

My next pick is a remix by Britain’s own, and one of my favorites, Siden. This time Sinden gets his talented hands on fellow Pepsi DJ, and Cottontail fam, A-Trak’s “Say Whoa.”  Personally, the beat comes in off the bat and I wanna say “daaaaaaamn” cause all I can think of is voguing divas like Pepper la Beja duck walking the night away. Then I remember I’ve just imagined this dirty rave ball but instead of being sad it’s not real I’m thrilled because I can just start the track over and relive it all again. WIN!!

Lastly, I am super smitten with Blatta and Inesha Street Meat remix of MayBB’s “Touring in New York.” I mostly love it because of the New York street meat reference. Call me crazy, but it’s high time everyone’s local Hallal cart got an international shout out. So, malto grazie, guys. Italians everywhere are proud. Also, the down change and subsequent “kettle coming to a digital boil” sound is pretty epic. And, Benny Benassi is like a Tiffany lamp: a little crazy but he never goes out of style. Also, your grandmother probably loves him.

…a man who needs no introduction…

So, voila, mes petits lapins! The new stuff for you to gobble up and enjoy!!
