“Body Work,” Morgan Page‘s sensational new club anthem recorded alongside Canadian alt-pop crooners Tegan & Sara, has been a steady favorite on my iPod ever since the Club Mix of the song first premiered back in December. Seriously…obsessed.

And judging by the newest versions that just cropped up this week, it’s unlikely that the song will be leaving my playlists anytime soon.

Yesterday, the acclaimed DJ released the Album Mix of “Body Work,” which replaces the scorching electronica of the Club Mix with lush, trance-like beats, as well as gorgeous new vocals in the bridge.

It’s a much less frantic take on the track, yet it proves just as brilliant–in fact, it’s even better!

Page also provided his blessing on two other excellent mixes: The Lazy Rich remix, a dark, scrambling electro-attack with one hell of an explosive breakdown, and the Richard Dinsdale mix, a deeper House production.

All in all, an impressive package. (Get your head out of the gutter, I’m talking about the single release.) So drop what you’re doing and listen to all the mixes now!

The official line-up for the 2012 Coachella Festival–a strange world where hipsters, hip-hop enthusiasts, ravers and wandering Burning Man attendees, join for one magical celebration–has just been announced.

The two week line-up includes some majorly MuuMuse Approved acts, including Swedish House Mafia, Florence + The Machine, Avicii, Morgan Page, M83, Kaskade, Afrojack, Miike Snow, Santigold and many, many more.

Will you be heading to Coachella Valley for this year’s festival? Who knows…I just may show up twirling in the crowd!

And now for something COMPLETELY AMAZING.

American House/Electro producer Morgan Page has been igniting dance floors across the country for the past few months thanks to “In The Air,” the monolithic anthem (and easily one of year’s best dance songs) featuring production by BT, Sultan & Ned Shepard and a hypnotizing vocal assist by Télépopmusik‘s Angela McCluskey.

Enter Canadian indie folk-pop duo Tegan & Sara, who’ve seen their own fair share of success in the EDM world after their stunning collaboration with Dutch DJ Tiesto in 2009, “Feel It In My Bones.”

Clearly the talented sisters have developed a bit of a thirst for a thumpin’ BPM, because they’ve headed right back into the studio with Morgan Page to craft “Body Work,” a brand new cut from Page’s forthcoming 2012 studio record. The result of the collaboration? Transcendence.

“You do your body work/I feel my pulse working overtime,” the girls sing as the track dives into Page’s almighty hands-in-the-air beats. As with “Feel It In My Bones,” the girls’ jagged vocals provide the perfect contrast against the throbbing House pulsations. It’s an absolute smash, destined to dominate across dance floors, stadiums and arenas worldwide in 2012.

Really though: If this doesn’t provide the motivation for some serious body work, nothing will.

GET READY TO SWEAT!

“Body Work (feat. Tegan & Sara)” was released to Beatport on November 30. (iTunes)

Okay, so I kind of can’t believe this is actually happening right now but this is ACTUALLY HAPPENING right now.

MuuMuse favorites Angela McCluskey (of Télépopmusik fame), BT and Sultan & Ned Shepard have all come together to join forces with L.A.-based DJ Morgan Page for “In The Air,” the first single from his forthcoming studio album due out later this year. WHAT?!?!

The extended mix of the almighty collaborative club track–which was just released to Beatport on July 5 (yesterday)–is an (unsurprisingly) mind-blowing 7 minutes of luscious, pounding House rhythms, live instruments and signature hypnotic vocals from Ms. McCluskey. “I’m feeling a… / I’m feeling a change in the air,” the chanteuse croons on repeat.

Oh, and the lyrics were reportedly pieced together by clippings of magazine headlines. I MEAN…!!!

Chills. Absolute chills. This is everything. I cannot wait to add this to my Summer Nights soundtrack of ’11!

“In The Air” was released to Beatport on July 5. It will be released to iTunes on August 2. (Beatport)

STOP LIFE. STOP IT RIGHT NOW: NEW GIRL GROUP ALERT!!!

Anyone who’s ANYONE knows that one thing we LOVE (besides Godney) is a girl group.

Anyone who’s ANYONE knows that the other thing we LOVE (besides a girl group) is music of the Asian persuasion.

Meet BLUSH: Five girls making “edgy and fun” music. Together. AND ALL OF ASIAN DESCENT.

I AM ABSOLUTELY SEIZING.

Above is a viral animated clip (created by animator Shawn Harris with the iPad Brush App!) for “Undivided,” the groups’ lead single featuring Snoop Dogg (!).

The song is an summery mid-tempo electronica/R&B scorcher, much in the same vein as the recent output of Jessica Mauboy or Girlicious: “I love him and everything in me says don’t fight it / When I look into his eyes, I know we will be undivided,” the girls croon above the infectious, slow-grinding beat that bumps with an early ’00′s power-pop punch.

(PS: Do you hear those cries of “Aishiteru!” and “Wo Ai Ni” at the end? MY HEART. WON’T SKIP…A BEAT.)

And now, the roll-call for your new favorite band:

• Victoria–‘Queen V’–is the regal and poised singer/dancer with model-looks and an extensive gymnast background who while being raised in Hong Kong recorded several successful singles for the Chinese market.

• Natsuko–‘Nacho’–is the Japanese dance-crew veteran with a Hip-Hop vocal soul.

• Angeli is the sensual singer from the Philippines who was former lead singer of two bands as well as a top contestant on Pinoy Idol.

• Ji Ha born and raised in Korea, is the seemingly shy former law student with an R&B heart who has earned the nickname ‘Tiger’ because of her wild side.

• Alisha–‘L’il Ali’–is the youngest member, a multi-talented and multi-lingual Hindi singer/dancer who brings together Bollywood and Salsa with Hip-Hop and World Pop.

Regal and poised singer?! Multi-talented Hindi dancer?! MY GOD…YES!!!!

According to their official website, their upcoming studio album will feature production by several MuuMuse approved acts including Tal Herzberg, DJ Alex Guadino and Morgan Page.

For more information, check out their official website where you can currently download a free copy of “Undivided.”

BLUSH, LADIES AND LADYBOYS:
ENDING LONGSTANDING CULTURAL RIVALRIES, EASING BORDER TENSIONS AND SLAYING YOUR FAVES WITH HOT BEATZ SINCE 2011.

“Undivided” was released on June 21. (iTunes)

Nadia Ali is one of the greatest natural voices on the dance floor scene.

Formerly of Iio (“Rapture”, “Is It Love?), the singer has since embarked on her own successful career as a solo artist. After a series of songs recorded with artists including Rosko and Armin van Buuren, Ali finally unveiled her long-awaited debut album Embers in September of 2009.

A stunning collection of heavenly trance music and ambient sound, the album showcases both Ali’s unique vocal delivery and her knack for scribing deeply personal, sophisticated electronica, proving why she’s since become such an overwhelmingly admired, oft-requested collaborator for producers and artists alike.

Last Friday, I had the honor of speaking to Nadia as she prepared for a trip to Brazil. She was amazingly kind and as sweet as expected, and she provided a lot of thoughtful, in-depth responses to my questions. Instead of drafting up a short feature, I thought her fans would instead appreciate the full-on Q&A. Below is the entire transcript. I hope you all enjoy!

Click below to hear the full stream of L.A. DJ Morgan Page‘s deep house remix of “Threads,” the latest single from Temposhark.

The mix, which features chilled, stinging electronica and classic house beats, is a strong departure from Temposhark’s latest as we now find the singer stepping off the club’s smoke-filled stage and making a beeline for the dance floor.

My favorite moments include the post-chorus “woo-oo-ooh” bits and the Madonna-esque “I’m waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for you” breakdown three minutes into the mix.

The single, featuring three mixes from Morgan Page, is now available worldwide at Amazon and iTunes.
