Glasgow-based producer Williams (William Threlfall) has emerged from his laboratory with two new singles in hand after a quiet year. He’s updated Tangerine Dream’s “Love On a Real Train” for his own label, Love Triangle; it hits shelves February 14th, in time to buy a copy for your sweetheart. Williams returns to Get Physical with a trio of tunes: “El Baile/Kiss of Life/Unbearable Truth” will be available on February 27th. In anticipation of his new releases, Williams was kind enough to compile an hour long mix set, capped off with “Love On a Real Train,” for your enjoyment.

A friend recently joked that promo mixes are the new album. While that might not be entirely true, it does underscore the recent propensity toward enticing consumers with alternate versions of what they hope people will buy. A really helpful mix gives listeners a survey of a group’s aesthetic, as well as their personal musical taste. This new mixtape from Berlin-based Jahcoozi does just that. On top of a hot remix 12″ with reworks by LWE faves Sasse and Ata, Arto Mwambé and Cassy, the trio is also set to release their sophomore album, Blitz N Ass.

Buy: Jahcoozi’s Blitz N Ass on Amazon.

As a preview, the group’s DJ/producer, Robot Koch, worked a handful of the group’s tracks into a raucous mix of Dizzee Rascal, Chromeo (remixed by LWE pals, Guns N’ Bombs), Yo Majesty, Klaxons and… 50 Cent? Trust me, it works. Fans of M.I.A. and Lady Sovereign — both of whom Sasha Perera, Jahcoozi’s vivacious vocalist, shares a likeness in toughness and delivery– should definitely take note.

Did you know mp3 recorders have many jacks in which you can plug in things? I did, but apparently not which one to utilize; sorry, Tyler. Anyway, here is a basic idea of what the Steve N’ Tyler experience whipped up for frenzied vinyl fiends. It’s probably a bit quiet, but I’m so happy to have ANYTHING I can’t be bothered to change it. Let me know what you think!
