The Hundred in the Hands – Undressed in Dresden
(Jacques Renault remix) [mp3 ]
I totally love the small twist in the title of this remix. DFA’s disco maestro Jacques Renault made a stripped down lush version of the original indie rock Dressed in Dresden. This small extra tag in the title totally describes the whole feeling, which is pretty much awesome, like the sunrise on a briliant outdoor summer party. [via DISCODUST]

The Juan Maclean – Find A Way [mp3 RCRD LBL]
Find A Way was recorded during the sessions that yielded the forthcoming full-length The Future Will Come (DFA), but was left off the final sequencing of the album. Now it’s landed on the tour-only CD of the same name, giving those who’ve been checking out Juan’s heavily-lauded live shows a glimpse of what he’s been working on for the past three years.

Lykke Li – Little Bit (Loving Hand Remix) [mp3 RCRD LBL]
Tim Goldsworthy (Loving Hand, DFA founder, former UNKLE drummer, and the producer of many great acts like Cut Copy or The Rapture) remixed Lykke. Very very, very very very… catchyjazzyelectrochill. Top tune for summer mornings!!

A DFA Records entourage will storm the MoMA this Satruday, March 1, for a dance party to be held in conjunction with the museum’s exhibition, Color Chart: Reinventing Color, 1950 to Today. The event is part of the museum’s ongoing PopRally series. The exhibition, which will run March 2 – May 12, examines what
happens when, according to its website, "contemporary artists assign
color decisions to chance." If your knowledge of art is remedial, think Andy Warhol, Frank Stella, Gerhard Richter, and Damien
Hirst, and you’ll get the idea. The dance party will feature Juan Maclean, T&T (Tim Goldsworthy
and Tim Sweeney), Holy Ghost!, Justin Miller, and Jacques Renault on
the decks. Attendees will be able to preview the exhibition, and should
wear bright and bold colors. As always, free booze will be available at
the open bar. The MoMA is located at 11 W 53 Street in New York. Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door. Unfortunately, the event is sold out, best use those connections.
