Niagara EDM powerhouse Deadmau5 has officially shared his remix of Québec's breakout alien math-rock duo, Angine de Poitrine.

Deadmau5 was an early fan of the math-rock band, having professed his love for them online many times in the last few months. Recently, he's been weaving his remix of their song ''Fabienk'' into his sets, notably at Veld Festival, where stories and videos of the drop were widely shared.


Today, the producer has finally shared an official and Angine de Poitrine-approved remake of ''Fabienk'' which gives the mathy track the 'four on the floor' treatment, resulting in a surprisingly funky and danceable tune.

It's been a whirlwind year for Angine de Poitrine so far, as the anonymous Saguenay microtonal duo are performing sold out shows across the world. Not bad for a band no one outside the province knew even a year ago. Since then, they've earned themselves the title of 'Most viral artist in the world' from Spotify, earned widespread critical acclaim for their most recent album, Vol. 2, and even have impersonators in Russia.

U2 Dream It All Up Again

As of this afternoon, precisely 49 years and 342 days have passed since the four members of U2 first hung out together, and they still haven’t gotten sick of each other. Or maybe they have. “Look, it’s been 50 years of hell,” says Larry Mullen Jr., sitting with his three bandmates at an outdoor lunch table just a few feet from the Mediterranean’s pointillist pastels. He’s looking sleek, as usual, in a black polo and Wayfarers, his hair in its perpetual pompadour, shorn at the sides. “I mean, honestly, having to round these guys up, get them to go and do the songs — it’s been hard. And then when it comes to touring, OK, the stage sets and all that stuff, but sweet Jesus, the haircuts. And then having to watch them from behind. Honestly, it’s been hard.”

Stevie Wonder Surprise-Releases Four Previously Unheard ‘Songs in the Key of Life’

Stevie Wonder surprise-released Songs in the Key of Life 50: The EP, which contains four previously unreleased studio recordings, on Monday. He recorded “It’s Easier,” “My Life Story of Love,” “I Can See the Sun in Late December,” and “I’m Into Livin'” during the sessions for his celebrated 1976 album but held onto them for the past half century. Now that he’s planning a tour commemorating the 50th anniversary of that album, he decided to finally issue them.

“We’ve lived with Songs in the Key of Life for 50 years, but there’s still more to hear,” Wonder said. “We didn’t add these songs to the album, but they were part of what I was feeling and discovering as we made it. They bring me back to that time in my life, and now they get to become part of yours.”
