This place about to blow!

Laidback Luke, the Filipino-born, Netherlands-bred DJ and producer whose name has become more and more of a staple within remix packages from some of MuuMuse’s favorite acts, including Wynter Gordon and Christina Aguilera (and of course, that truly awe-inspiring take on Robyn‘s “Indestructible”) has a new solo single out: It’s called “Timebomb.”

“Timebomb” is a very good, rave-y stormer complete with glitched-out moments of 8-bit electronica and rocket launch-like, surging synthesizers. A club affair, if you will.

The song was an instrumental at first but then it wasn’t, thanks to a vocal melody penned and sung by John Mendelsohn (not to be confused with Jonathan Mendelsohn, the director of general election resources for the British Labour Party, nor John Mendelsohn, former Rolling Stone rock critic), but rather John Mendelsohn, an attractive singer from Brooklyn.

Together, the two crafted the final version of “Timebomb” entirely via email (oh, technology!). And thus, there you have it: “Timebomb (feat. John Mendelsohn).

The song’s accompanying Tron-esque video follows in step with the song’s futuristic trance beat, as we follow a gang of bad ass roller derby chicks duking it out within a space-age pinball machine operated by a sexy lady who looks like the forgotten lovechild of La Roux‘s Elly Jackson and Her Majesty & The Wolves‘ Kimberly Wyatt. It makes entirely no sense, and yet, it’s entirely perfect.

And there you have it. OR DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?!

“Timebomb (feat. John Mendelsohn)” was released on January 18. (Beatport)

STOP WHATEVER YOU’RE DOING.

Wynter Gordon is FINALLY releasing her music!

“Dirty Talk” is Gordon’s official debut single from her upcoming album. The song is Madonna‘s “Celebration” done once better, jam-packed with rave-happy synthesizers, an unstoppable middle eight section, and straight-up sexy speak. Literally, the verses are just a procession of nouns that are naughty and/or dirty. It’s BRILLIANT.

I’ve been listening to this song non-stop for weeks!

The song will be accompanied by remixes from Laidback Luke, Kim Fai, and Hagenaar & Albrech very soon.

I WANT TO DO SOME DIRTY THINGS TO YOU TONIGHT.

It’s disgusting outside. Absolutely. Disgusting. So why not put up a few streamers ’round the house, strew some condoms and beer cans around, and make your own home the scene to beat tonight?

I think that’s the best course of action for night skies as grim as these…

As usual, take what you’d like, leave what you don’t. I HIGHLY recommend the Friday Bridge track especially…goes down exxxtra smooth.
