DFA fresh stuff


Runaway is the New York music-making team of Jacques Renault and Marcos Cabral. They have released singles for I'm a Cliche, Chinatown, and Wurst Edits, and DJ constantly in NYC, Brooklyn, and beyond. They recently remixed the newest Moby single and also completed a remix for LCD Soundsystem. Brooklyn Club Jam, their debut release for DFA Records, is co-released overseas with the premiere UK dance label Rekids. Brennan Green, one of the mellowest masterminds behind the booming NYC disco scene, delivers a can't-miss remix of the thumping, anthemic original.


Mock & Toof were infamously discovered by DFA many years ago via an MP3 demo emailed to the website address (which later became their debut Death From Abroad single, "Brownbred"). On this release, the pair finally makes its proper DFA debut with the elastic dance pop single, "Underwater."
"Underwater" is a true breakthrough--a song so undeniably laid back and catchy, the duo came up with the term "cosmic sea shanty" to sum it up. With its undeniable Madchester / Beta Band delivery, DFA decided it was more of an E Shanty, especially the dub on the flipside, which blends warm keys, euphoric piano, and a killer bass line. "Underwater" is more unique magic from the Tiny Sticks men and a new page in their still-evolving career.



Listen both at Waves at Night (DFA).
