Canadian selectors-turned-producers Jokers of the Scene (aka DJ Booth & Chameleonic) drop a bomb for their debut single with "Y'all Know The Name(1)," a massive club re-work of Pharoahe Monch's "Simon Says" that's been getting played by everyone from MSTRKRFT to Annie Mac, Sinden to DJ AM. After turning in varied remixes for DJ Blaqstarr, Brodinski and vitaminsforyou, this one firmly establishes the JOTS sound: huge build ups, distorted bass and full on rave-age. Speaking of rave monsters - if that's your thing, wait'll you hear the Flosstradamus remix(2). (I'm writing this on a Monday morning and it definitely just woke me the fuck up.) Equally intense but slightly less abrasive is Nacho Lovers' remix(3) with its rolling techno bass, stuttered samples and squelchy effects. Also on wax for the first time is JOTS' "Juggle It(4)," a shape-shifting Young Leek remix which was getting love last year from Diplo and some of the usual suspects. Look for more from these dudes on Fool's Gold rill soon.
