Breakbot Releases Summer Mixtape and “You Should Know” EP This Week!

Acclaimed French DJ Breakbot has unveiled his newest mix, “Bedtime Stories” just in time for Summer! You can listen to it and download now on Soundcloud: http://snd.sc/165yqBc.
Breakbot explains:Here’s our new baby: “Bedtime Stories – Sounds For A Sweaty Summer.” The idea behind this mix was to share some of the best tracks we’ve discovered in the past few months. As you can imagine, we weren’t able to limit ourselves to new discoveries and ended up putting some old favorites into the stew. Summer is always a very special moment for us as our music seems to be the product of warmth and sunshine. For those of you fortunate enough to head to the beach, we hope this will provide the perfect soundtrack for your barbecues, volley-ball games and poolside parties. For those of you who won’t have the opportunity to take a vacation, let’s hope this gives you a little bit of digital sunshine and puts a smile on your faces.”

 

Earlier this week, Breakbot released You Should Know, a new remix EP out worldwide via Ed Banger/Because/Sire. Streaming now in its entirety on the music blog Earmilk, the EP contains the original version of the track You Should Know, featuring the vocals of Ruckazoid, as well as genre bending remixes from Busy P & Boston Bun, Homework Le Bain, Le Family Club and The Swiss.

 

Breakbot has been very active as of late, recently contributing to Ed Banger Record’s 10th anniversary compilation Ed Rec Vol. X with the original song “The Beach“, as well as releasing a remix of the popular Phoenix track “Trying To Be Cool,” which is available for free download HERE. Earlier this year, Breakbot released his acclaimed album By Your Side in the U.S., which Rolling Stone proclaimed “radiant grooves that are ready-made for the spring. Manipulated vocal samples, a meaty bassline, funky guitar and laserlike zaps dig in and let loose for a tasty blend of sounds.”

 

Breakbot has spent years delighting dance floors around the world with his infectious music and killer remixes of Justice and Metronomy, amassing hundreds of thousands of Facebook fans and over 15 million YouTube views in the process. Breakbot brought his amazing live performance to North America earlier this year, completing a whirlwind ten city tour that saw stops at SXSW and Winter Music Conference, as well as sold out shows in New York City’s Webster Hall and Los Angeles’s Lure Patio. For those who missed him, worry not! Breakbot is currently in the middle of a world tour that sees him performing at several Ed Banger tenth anniversary birthday parties, including the HARD Summer Music Festival in Los Angeles in early August.
