The Keepers (The Knocks Remix) by Santigold


The Knocks have just released a fun little remix of Santigold’s “The Keepers.” While their press release challenges listeners to refrain from dancing, I find that this track is pretty much too hard to resist. (via Indie Shuffle)

Fader (The Knocks Remix) (feat. Samuel) by The Temper Trap


A nice one-two punch from the NYC duo known as The Knocks. We’ve posted a couple of their tracks in the past, and these two don’t disappoint. “Fader” remixes The Temper Trap’s original jam, with the help from Samuel.

Learn To Fly by The Knocks


The Knocks let out a brand new one too! "Learn To Fly" is a song that got cut off their most recent Magic last minute. They’ve been performing it live, so they decided to drop it to the masses. Hard to imagine that this was cut off of their EP.

Let It Go (The Knocks Remix) by Dragonette


Canadian group Dragonette has just released their upbeat, electro tinged single “Let It Go” along with some great remixes by great artists such as The Knocks, Laidback Luke, and Faustix & Imanos. The original track has all the staples of an amazing summer track, but each of the remix artists brings their own unique flavor that is hard to resist.

Midnight City (feat. Mandy Lee) (M83 Cover) by The Knocks


I’d estimate the over / under for number of remixes and mashups that feature M83′s already classic anthem, “Midnight City,” at about 80,000. I’ve heard so many forgettable, often crudely derivative attempts at harnessing the awesome in that song that I had written off the possibility of doing anything new with it. But The Knocks just released a cover, with Mandy Lee, and when the Knocks do, well, anything, you listen. This time it’s worth it. They add a fresh new perspective on the song, and what’s more, they manage to do it without an over-reliance on the “wah, wah, wah, wah” riff that was the original’s trademark. Is it as good as the first time? No. But it rarely is. (via Audio Cred)

R.O.Y.L. by The Knocks


DJ duo The Knocks released a new EP a little while back called Magic. Featuring some old classics like "Dancing With The DJ" and "Brightside," as well as a couple new tracks, its songs and their inevitable remixes are sure to be found playing at a club near you. And with good reason. B-Roc and JPatt have put out some of the best dance music in the business over the past few years. And when you factor in their solo efforts and their non Knocks affiliated productions B-Roc, for example, is a major player in his own music company, HeavyRoc Productions their footprint becomes understandably important.

This track, "R.O.Y.L.," which stands for "Rest Of Your Life," falls right in the middle of their KC and the Sunshine Band 80s disco funk type sound. Here’s to that. Check out information about the full-length EP, as well as their upcoming tour, here. (via Audiocred)

Brightside ('96 Bulls Remix) by The Knocks


Says '96 Bulls:

"We started 2011 with a remix of The Knocks brilliant pop tune "Dancing With The DJ" so we figured it was only right to end the year remixing their following up single "Brightside". A little something to brighten up the Australasian summer, or to heat up the US x Euro winter. Enjoy!"

Magic (feat. Gary Go) by The Knocks


Brand new tuneage from The Knocks via NYLONmag. Here we have "Magic" featuring British singer and producer Gary Go, taken from the band’s eagerly anticipated Magic EP which drops December 6th.

We have a pretty laidback track, ideal for smooth and steady Sunday drives home from... Anywhere. Or maybe at a club, a summer cookout or just at home while lounging around and doing nothing. It just fits... Anywhere! These guys are really stepping-up their game, proving to everyone that they are a duo to be recognized

Dancing With Avicii (Captain Cuts Mix) by The Knocks vs. Avicii


I know, another "Levels" remix, I hear you. But c'mon! The Knocks + Avicii? Don't tell me that doesn't interest you? It doesn't get more interesting that that. Like I said, not a big fan of the mash-up trend, but this one deserves to be an entry.

Los Angeles favorite, Captain Cuts, is responsible for grabbing two of 2011's monster anthems and mashing it like there is no tomorrow for the dance floor. Imagine the already perfect "Levels" as a vocal mix but not just any kind of vocal mix, but vocally mixed with the very infectious lyrics of The Knocks and their big "Dancing With The DJ." Perfected perfection? Not sure what to call it but I suggest you Check out this huge tune after this skip.

Brightside by The Knocks


I'm a big fan of B-Roc and JPatt, also known to their fans as the electro-pop duo of The Knocks and I am  very proud to say that they now have an official single release under a record label with "Brightside" via A&M Octone Records. To those familiar with the group, we all know that they are experts when it comes to upbeat and feel good electronic-pop music. Pop-filled and fresh but not the annoying kind. Give it a listen cause it is deserves the attention.

Says Heavy Roc Music:

"For those of you who follow us on Twitter and Facebook, we've been promising a taste of our new upcoming single "Brightside." We'll, the wait is over! The full-version of "Brightside" will be released on October 19 with some special remixes by Fred Falke, Discotech, Lenno and Jaybird. For now, check out this teaser video featuring exclusive tour footage and a snippet of the song!"

Sun Goes Down


First time I came across this artist called Icona Pop. Turns out, they made a song that was considered one of the best pop songs in last year's line-up with their "Manners." The track was so successful, their track got sampled to make another fine creation with "Mind Your Manners" by Chiddy Bang. Now they're back with a track called "Sun Goes Down" from their upcoming full-length album, Nights Like This. With production work from The Knocks, these chicks aren't messing around. Check out their hot new track after the skip.
