Just in time for Halloween, Altered Zones has debuted a brand new remix of Light Asylum’s “Dark Allies” by our own roster DJs Joey Hansom and Dickey Doo.

In advance of her tour through the UK, Germany, Austria and France — check out the itinerary below — Planningtorock is offering a stream of the bonus disc from the sold-out limited edition version of her acclaimed sophomore album W on DFA Records. Aside from an alternate version of the single “Doorway”, it features three non-album tracks.
Homoground is a US-based site that’s like some gay podcast sweatshop for your music discovery pleasure. We’ve just contributed a 40-minute mix of music (un)released this year by queer-identified artists and performers based in our Techno Hauptstadt who craft music by electronic means.
R.E.M. recorded parts of their latest album Collapse into Now in our German capital, which is how they ended up with a song title like “Überlin” and a guest spot from Peaches.

Currently, the remix is only available for streaming; stay tuned for news on an official release.
