There’s a new Mystery Jets album coming out in a little while, and Erol Alkan is behind the production on the whole piece(!!!) I certainly didn’t see it coming, but the Mystery Jets are one of Erol’s favorite bands. So that explains that. It’s not hard to see why when listening to “Flakes”. It is a really nice piece. And even though it’s a considerable shift in gears from the regular postings on [redthreat] – I nonetheless think it breaks the mold. Such a smooth track, I don’t always have to be spazzing to dance music.

Mystery Jets – Flakes

Other groups have also taken notice of their sound and done their own reworks, one of the more noticeable ones being (you guessed it..) Justice, which yielded a rather weak(er) effort on their part if you ask me. Mystery Jets also do their own versions of “Hounds of Love” (had to post. that Phones remix is still on heavy rotation here. i can-not get enough.) & Bloc Party’s “The Pioneers”. Check out the tunes and keep a lookout for the next release.
