    FREE DOWNLOAD: PABLO CALAMARI’S REMIX OF ‘WE’RE GOING TO LOMANDRA”

    Here it is, the last of our free remix downloads for the week. We had Toni Toni Lee’s remix of ‘Miimali Gang Stars’ on Wednesday, yesterday The Aston Shuffle gave us their remix of ‘Late Night’ and today we’re ending on a bouncy note…

    Pablo Calamari is our good friend. You might know him better as one half of the club duo Act Yo Age, or maybe by his old alias Elroy. The dude is a club veteran and he has brought all of his wisdom to his remix of The Lomandra Crew’s “We’re Going To Lomandra”. This percussion heavy, tropical BEAST is perfect for getting that crowd moving. Hopefully they’ll join in with the lyrics too (“Ay! Ay! What’s your name?”)!

    Download the track for free from the Soundcloud link above and learn it back to front before you head to the HEAPS DECENT SPRING PARTY tonight and hear Pablo Calamari drop it in his set! Don’t have a ticket yet? Buy one (or ten!) HERE.

    Here’s the poster for our party tonight if you need refreshing. It’s going to be a wild night! Hope to see you all there.

    FREE DOWNLOAD: THE ASTON SHUFFLE’S REMIX OF ‘LATE NIGHT’

    It’s day 2 of our remix a day frenzy! Yesterday we gave away the super funky Toni Toni Lee remix of ‘Miimali Gang Stars’. Today we’re gonna take the tempo up a bit….

    This is the remix that the lovely fellas The Aston Shuffle did of another Detours and Destinations track, ‘Late Night’, by the girls over at Miimali Aborginal Youth Services. This once chilled out Nina Las Vegas produced tune has been turned into a fast steppin’ synthy monster of a club hit! We think this might be the first Aston Shuffle song that you can actually shuffle to!

    Download this MONSTER from the Soundcloud link above and come back tomorrow for our final Detours & Destinations remix, Pablo Calamari’s remix of ‘We’re Going To Lomandra’!

    Best believe you’ll be hearing all these remixes and more tomorrow night at our HEAPS DECENT SPRING PARTY! Make sure you buy your tickets HERE.

    DOWNLOAD TONI TONI LEE’S REMIX OF MIIMALI GANG STARS

    We’re going to put up a new remix today, tomorrow and Friday to get you PSYCHED UP for our party on Friday. Please spread the word because these new remixes are AWESOME!

    Let’s kick it off with a certified rap banger, we’ve been playing this one out for a while now and it’s time to share it with everyone! You may have even heard this one live at one of Toni Toni Lee’s recent shows…

    This is Toni Toni Lee’s straight up G-Funk remix of Miimali Gang Stars, a song we made during Detours & Destinations with the boys at Miimali Aboriginal Youth Service in Blacktown. You can hear the original here, we based that beat on 2pac’s Hit ‘Em Up, but Toni Toni Lee has taken this West Coast tribute to the next level with his remix.

    Download it from the Soundcloud link at the top of the post. Tell your friends to download it. Play it in the club, in your car and by the pool as Spring kicks in. Do all of those things!

    Be sure to be on the dancefloor when this one drops on Friday night at the Heaps Decent Spring Party! Have you bought your tickets yet? Do it here!

    Tomorrow we’ll be unleashing the RAVE POWERHOUSE that is The Aston Shuffle’s remix of Late Night, then on Friday you can pick the tropical MONSTER remix of We’re Going to Lomandra by Pablo Calamari.

    Stay tuned and SPREAD THE WORD!
