Awesome new track and video from the ever throbbing Hercules & Love Affair taken from their new album due out at the end of this month….

…plus this ace remix from StopMakingMe will be featured on the single release…

BONUS BEAT: Hercules & Love Affair – My House (Leo Zero Remix)
Unsure whether this is an official remix or he’s got hold of the acapella and done his own re-rub, what ever it is it’s all over the internet and its an absolute burner so sure they wont mind us sharing it.

good friend of COYO The Countach has re-upped his DJ friendly re-edit of Detroit Experiment’s Think Twice… we though that if you missed it the first time then you best be quick and get you hands on it now as its a proper late night burner!

Dear Contortees.

Its with a heavy heart that we must inform you that Contort Yourself as you know it will be no more as of 2011.

As a famous man once said “We’ve had a good run”… and we thank everyone who’s ever played or attended any of our parties. It’s all of you that have made Contort Yourself so special to us over the past four years, so Thank You.

We’re going to go out in true style with our NYE party at Night & Day this weekend. As you know the door price is LOW and there’ll be plenty of drinks offers on the night to help loosen your boots. We’ll also have a whole host of friends joining COYO residents on the decks to see things out proper. SO if you’ve not made plans as yet we’d love to see you and help us celebrate the special night.

For more information and ticketlinks check the event page here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=149187165128421

Big Love.

Team CoYo.

PS. We’ll still be running our blog with free mixes and party vibes dished out on the regs as well as ruining other peoples parties when given the opportunity as guest djs… who knows there could even be a few one offs every now and again?!?

Last months guests, full time blog champions and all round handsome chaps BICEP just dished us a promo of their new EP. Let me tell you its wild. Now i know that COYO’s BPM counter has been turned down a few notches lately but this doesn’t stop this slew burner from packing any less heat! If you dont trust us check out what all these top boys have to say and cop the lead track Darwin at the bottom… but while you’re here keep your eyes on www.throneofbloodmusic.com as its getting its full release in early 2011!

Hudson Mohawke showers Hoya Hoya’s own Krystal Klear’s track ‘Tried For Your Love’ with a bucketful of heat that’s sure to get the dancefloor so full it’ll be bustin’ at the seams. If you got that mad and undying love for divine piano stabs then quite frankly, this ones for you.

If you’re looking for more reasons to listen then this guy is one of the biggest personalities in Manchester…and plays one helluva mean set that makes that wannabe-cool-folded-arms-against-the-wall thing damn near impossible.

Click here to download the remix for FREEEEEEE from RCRDLBL.

This guy knows what life is about. He’s got god awful teeth, an enviable microphone waggling technique and serious miming skills. Not to mention an out of sync dance troupe all kitted out in painfully 80s full-body-leotard type-ish outifts.

I wonder where O’Gar is now?

Contort Yourself takes the reigns of the good ship Night & Day for one special night, seeing off the old and ringing in the new with a back to basics NYE Party!

With a SUPER low door price (£5 Early Birds), drinks offers at the bar and maximum disco vibes, not many can rival this as number 1 choice for your NYE celebrations… Keep your eyes on here for announcements soon on the full line up!

Picture House just sent us this tasty little nugget, that as you’d guess from the title is a cover of the ubiquitous Candi Staton number of the same name. I cant help but think there’s been a little Christmassy influence in here, well at least that or he’d been glugging a few Gluehwein’s whilst putting this together, because although the original remains true as a stout underbelly there’s a festive ping alongside the acidic pop twist that he’s created.

Check it out for yourself, i think you’ll rather like it, and while you’re here why not get involved in his recent mixtape as he gets down and dusty with a collection of his favourite records from all over the place recorded live… yeah live, on them spinny things.
