LA Riots & Villains Take On Hot Chip
2007 was quite a year for LA Riots. Its hard to believe that this time last year they didn’t even exist and here they are now touring with MSTRKRFT playing packed show after packed show. For them, it all began with their decision to use the then upcoming Justice album as the platform to present their choppy dancefloor friendly style. They took two tunes that they expected to be the big singles, The Party and DVNO, and applied their magic, turning them into some of the biggest remixes of the summer. This catapulted them to near immediate success and triggered a slew of remix offers from various major labels. Their popularity snowballed from there earning them numerous accolades and solidifying their place as one of the biggest electro acts in America.
Fast forward to the present and they’re back to their old antics again, this time with recently adopted proteges and fellow remix technicians, Villains. The pair of pairs decided, this time, to take on the first single of the highly anticipated new Hot Chip album, “Ready For The Floor“. Already having been legitimately remixed by Soulwax and Jesse Rose, the LA duos had their work in store for them and rose to the occasion. They have been kind enough to supply us with exclusive on this hot banger and we’re pleased as punch to able to supply it to you for download! Be sure to keep an eye out as LA Riots traverse the USA on the MSTRKRFT tour (I’ll be seeing them in Chicago this weekend) and, of course, stay tuned for more killer remixes and upcoming original tunes from LA Riots.
