How delectable is this? We’ve already featured a sample of Gabriell’s world via his own take on ‘Jet Skiing’ by Show Your Shoe (through his Pink Is Punk ‘Grand Prix’ review), and if things were going to get even more better, then we have a free tasting of Druma Kina’s remix of the same cute track!
Stomach-filling work Druma, with more Tuesday Mainstay Delights dropping courtesy of Flashworx and Coupons in the future! Don’t you dare forget to show your shoes!!

As they prepare for a tour to celebrate their first decade together, I’d imagine it’s going to be a minute before we hear any new music from national treasure Karen O and her Yeah Yeah Yeahs . It’s Blitz! was a great record, but in the mean time we need people like Victor Klyuchnikov, AKA Cosmonaut Grechko to step in and give us something fresh, such as his remix of the YYY’s essential, and hipster make out song, “Maps”.
Off his Pilot Radio Guest Mix, the classically trained Russian disco producer turns the heavy heartbreaker into something playful, free and easy. I love the fractured and inconsistent layering that never gets heavy enough to be taken seriously, and never allows Miss O’s tragic lyrics to really gain traction. The Cosmonaut has turned a classic indie-ballad into something you can fly your kite to, and the Pilot Radio Guest Mix also features the great remix of Druma Kina‘s Walking Away that we’ve mentioned previously, and is definitely worth looking into…

Teenage Gang Records are about to release the new Walking Away EP for the Brazilian Druma Kina. The track is spectacular and if I were a betting man I would guess the album would be just as badass. Keep an eye out for it here. The release comes with remixes from Montauk, Kamei and Cavaliers of Fun. Not to mention this very smooth remix from Cosmonaut Grechko.
We haven’t featured much of Cosmonaut Grechko on here so as a little bonus we have a little recap on all the best CG.
