Every year the VOODOO EXPERIENCE has one of the most diverse artist line-ups of any musical event in America–an unbeatable mix of what’s cutting edge, iconic and traditional (New Orleans) that pays tribute to the music of the region. This year VOODOO–October 29, 30 and 31 at City Park in New Orleans–is even more musically expansive than before.
The two main Voodoo Ritual stages line-up will now include The Whigs, White Rabbits, Dead Confederate, River City Extension, Miracle at St. Anna, O’ Brother, SPEAK and Michael Tolcher.

VOODOO’s expanded electronic celebration will now include Kelis, the Crystal Method, Kaskade and Swiss Chriss. They join the previously announced Deadmau5, Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten and Die Antwoord, among others.
“As we were putting together the line-up for this year’s VOODOO, we found such a large amount of talent in the electronic world that we knew this was the right time to bring it back,” says VOODOO EXPERIENCE founder and producer Stephen Rehage. “VOODOO has always been about discovery and this year’s line-up represents every kind of music imaginable.”
And the music will never stop for those interested in exploring the New Orleans musical landscape, with official VOODOO After Dark parties already confirmed at legendary venues throughout the city including One Eyed Jacks, d.b.a, House of Blues, Republic New Orleans, The Howlin Wolf and Tipitinas Uptown.

To herald the release of their new EP, We Have Remixes, on Sept 7th, Hot Chip will be bringing their explosive live show back to North America in October supporting LCD Soundsystem. The band will also go interactive via MXP4-powered release allowing fans to play with remixes of their top 20 Billboard dance hit “I Feel Better.”
We Have Remixes features alternative versions of tracks by inspirational producers. From Todd Edwards’ space age garage retake on “Hand Me Down Your Love” to Osborne’s lounge house version of “Take It In”; Caribou’s electro-acid fried reconstruction of “Brothers” to Hot City’s deranged rave revival attack on “We Have Love”, We Have Remixes manages to pull together a selection of the very best dancefloor manipulators in the world right now.
We Have Remixes tracklisting:
01. Hand Me Down Your Love (Todd Edwards Micro Chip Remix) 6.46
02. We Have Love (Hot City Remix) 4.59
03. Brothers (Caribou Remix) 5.09
04. Take It In (Osborne Remix) 7.16
Of the remixers, Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard says, “These are some of our favourite producers, people that we have been following for years and have been friends with for years as well in some cases.”
Hot Chip is also proud to announce the launch of an MXP4-powered interactive version of the band’s latest single, “I Feel Better”. The second release from Hot Chip’s latest album One Life Stand, “I Feel Better” is now available online as an MXP4-powered application at www.facebook.com/hotchip.
The interactive release gives fans a video game-like experience, enabling them to play with remixes of “I Feel Better” by producers including Richard X and Den Haan. The application is fully integrated into Hot Chip’s Facebook page, creating strong fan engagement by having them interact with “I Feel Better” right on the Facebook page.
The application also features multi-media content, including the notorious “I Feel Better” video directed by comedian Peter Serafinowicz, and fans using the interactive application are also able to easily share it through blogs, Twitter, Facebook and other popular viral and social media platforms.

“…and made their dance-pop feel spontaneous and organic and warm thanks to touches like the steel drums on ‘One Night Stand.’” – SPIN.com
“With wobbly electronic rhythms and a command of the drippy, semi-ironic disco ballad, Hot Chip plays wistful but still snarky dance music.” – New York Times

Holy Ghost! is kicking off their North American tour with Chromeo today, so in celebration, we wanted to share the official video for “I Know, I Hear” from their recently released EP, Static on the Wire. The guys shot the awesomely funky black & white, surveillance-style video at their rehearsal space in Brooklyn – keep your eyes peeled for a cameo from their good friend Caroline Polachek, who collaborates vocally on this amazing tune!

Now they’re gearing up to do it all over again, heading out for another tour of North America with Chromeo and Telephoned, as well as a high-profile show on August 4th at Central Park SummerStage with Hercules and Love Affair and Hot Chip. Below, please find all upcoming tour dates, including some recently announced shows, including DJ sets alongside A-Trak and DJ Mehdi, and live band shows in Chicago and Salt Lake City.

Following the release of the band’s masterful fourth long player One Life Stand, Hot Chip are delighted to announce details of their new single “I Feel Better”, to be released digitally April 20th on Astralwerks.
Indeed, Hot Chip is back with an epic hit of euphoric hands-in-the-air bliss. A House stomp that summons up the spirit of Black Box, S’Express and InnerCity’s ‘Goodlife’ and takes inspiration from the burgeoning UK Funky scene. From computer looped strings and Joe Goddard’s Auto-Tuned vocals, the track simmers away before the chorus lifts-off with enough power to blow a fuse in your speakers! It’s one of the great pop choruses of our time; clunky Chicago house synths colliding with an uplifting vocal sung by Alexis Taylor as if he’s been waiting all his life to sing it. ‘I Feel Better” is pulsing modern-day disco: an electronic punch that refuses to sacrifice any emotional complexity. In short, it’s a track that belongs in nodding heads, dancing feet and the annals of great contemporary pop music.
‘I Feel Better’ has had a phenomenal reaction on the band’s recently completed UK tour and special NY dates with the song rivaling ‘Over and Over’ and ‘Ready For The Floor’ in terms of audience reaction every night, despite having only appeared as an album track so far. Furthermore, this song has taken on a life of its own online becoming one of the most talked about tracks among blogs and fans alike.
As always, Hot Chip have enlisted a rich and varied selection of remixers, so keep your ears to the ground for storming remixes from the legendary Richard X, Den Haan and Funky re-edit from London’s Ill Blu.
As previously announced Hot Chip will be bringing their explosive live show back to North America in April. The band will be playing tracks from new album as well as old favorites. The xx will be the band’s special guests on this tour.
