One of my favourite new bands around at the moment are Florence And The Machine. They cross the indie/chart/dance music divide and have a very unique sound. There are some great remixes around of thier song Rabbit Heart. The first remix has been hammered over the last few months from Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1. It is Jamie T’s remix and in my opionion is absolutely quaility, especially the piano, that Jamie T says is reminiscent of the Hacienda, which I totally agree with. Anyway here it is:

There are a number of unofficial remixes flying around the youtube, but this is my favourite by P.E.S.T whos myspace is below.

In true dance music crossover fashion Florence and the machine have been getting a reputation for covering dance music classics. Here they are performing the legendary The Source’s ‘You Got The Love’ on Channel 4

(It’s funny Channel 4 have removed embedding from YouTube, but WordSpace only needs the URL. These kind of posts are great PR for Channel so it baffles me why these media companies don’t embrace the internet more instead of hiding behind copyright.)
