[Recent remixes that have come across our radar. They may help bring the weekend faster…]

Active Child, “Johnny Belinda (White Arrows Remix)” – L.A. electro rockers White Arrows give the last track on Active Child’s “You Are All I See” a little boost by dropping a beat and adding shiny synth riffs, slightly changing it from a somber tune to a slick one. White Arrows play Feb. 23 at the Observatory with Starfucker and Feb. 25 at the Echoplex with Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Pat Grossi and the rest of the Active Child gang return to SoCal on April 27 at the Glass House.

Races, “Big Broom (Robert DeLong Remix)” – Races gets yet another remix for their hit single “Big Broom,” and although the dubstep vibe is strong on this reinterpretation, up-and-coming electronic artist Robert DeLong makes sure the core structure of the song isn’t too scattered. Make sure you check out the music video for the original track.

Trippples Nippples, “Golden Road (Oli Chang Remix)” – We rarely cover things of the riské nature, but Tokyo’s electro-poppers Trippples Nippples is gaining more of a following for their outrageously wild performances in comparison to their slightly-awkward-to-type band name anyway. High Highs‘ Oli Chang subdues their track “Golden Road” by laying vocals on a bed of rolling synths and inserting a shimmering build up.
