There are about a squilizillion LCD mixes out at the mo' but my current fave is Loving Good's slightly dubby tweak of 'Home'. Honourable mention to Soulwax's version of 'Hit', too.
One of the hottest remixes in the world right now from production duo and all-round midas-touched maestros Holy Ghost!. This rmx of Monarchy's 'Love Get Out Of My Way' has more than a passing resemblance to one of house music's very early classics and one of my fave tunes, 'Trapped' by Colonel Abrams. Or maybe it's just me ...
One of DFA Records new Young Turks, NYC duo Holy Ghost! look set to be one of the stars of 2010 with a string of great remixes (in particular Phoenix's 'Listomania' and Moby's 'I Like To Move In Here') and a handful of great singles. While we wait for new stuff here's a smashing little mix the lads made for Red Bull Radio.

Featured on the Rapture's nifty K7! mix last year and probably best known for supplying one of the numerous breaks for MARRS' Pump Up the Volume, Stax house band the Bar Kays' Holy Ghost is a tune in its own right. Correct me if I'm wrong but it may have also been the inspiration for respected DFA discoists Holy Ghost!'s moniker. dis-co.
