Download: The New Devices - "Everything Good (The Japanese Popstars remix)"

It's been a long time since the electro world has been this excited about a prospected talent. The Japanese Popstars have literally been getting the nod from the likes of Pete Tong, Zane Lowe, DJ Mag and others (including us, of course) and they just keep on climbing, releasing epic building tracks that are as fiery as can be. The trio don't seem to take the hype all too seriously, but in any event, they sit perched on a ledge all by themselves. The New Devices, a UK-based duo of producers who met at a squat party (fittingly enough), are searching for their rung on this ladder, too, with energy, mischief, intensely layered arrangements and soaring, is-it-analog-or-not crunching guitars and synths. So naturally we'd be thrilled at the prospect of these two acts meeting and thrilled we are. The Japanese Popstars take on the seedy original "Everything Good", turning it from a post-NIN throbber into a sky-high, bassy, club-filling anthem.
