Our pal Gus from Bang Gang is drawing on the wall in honor of the new Bang Gang compilation LP. The crew has been dropping a series of mini mixes to promote it, including this one from Bag Raiders. Kingdom + Kid Sis in there!
The looooooong awaited Bag Raiders “Big Fun” EP on Fool’s Gold – featuring some fresh remixes of their signature tunes + brand new surprises – is out in a matter of days, stay tuned…
Grab the two latest remixes from our friend Mr Fingers: the Death Set’s “Negative Thinking” (out now on Bang Gang 12 Inches) and Big Gipp’s “Hot” (out now on Scion Audio/Visual). Right-click, save-as, rock out. More to come from the TS lab very soon, keep checking for the latest news and tourdates over on his MySpace. And if you haven’t copped the full “Cross The Dancefloor” single yet…
