A few days ago, the dance-pop songstress Little Boots, aka Victoria Hesketh, released her Tim Goldsworthy-produced new album “Nocturnes” on her own newly formed label, On Repeat Records. It’s a record “indebted to the night” full of infectious melodic dance gems. And it sounds much better than her first LP.
Here, we have a delightful remix of her latest single “Broken Record” by Los Angeles-based disco/house duo Cosmic Kids. They rarely fail to disappoint. Did we mention it’s free?

It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Cosmic Kids, the Los Angeles-based disco/house duo of Ron Poznansky and Dan Terndrup, here at La.Ga.Sta. We have been following them since the release of their amazing 2011 debut single “Reginald’s Groove” on Throne Of Blood and featuring all of their quality stuff. Needless to say, these guys rarely, if ever, disappoint us.
The same goes for their new four-track EP, “Reality On The Horizon” on one of our favorite labels, Let’s Play House. The EP’s lead track, “Manteiga”, a collaboration between Cosmic Kids with Classixx’s Tyler Blake under his moniker Fingerpaint, is almost seven minutes of silky-smooth disco-jam goodness. No surprise that the name of the track means butter in Portugese. The release also includes two original tracks, “Higgs Boson” and “Whisper Softly” by Cosmic Kids, as well as a new track,”Change Yr Mind”, by Fingerpaint. All great, and definitely worth checking out.
Cosmic Kids & Fingerpaint’s “Reality On The Horizon” EP arrives on vinyl on March 25th via Let’s Play House. It will be followed by a digital release on April 7th. Pick up your 12” here and stream Cosmic Kids’ “Whisper Softly” below. Fill it up!

Once more during this year we have been sharing with you tons of free music, and today we’re really excited to reveal La.Ga.Sta.’s Top 40 most downloaded tracks of 2012. This is a chart compiled by our readers, who by the way have great taste. We couldn’t agree more. Breakbot’s “Programme” is top of the list, followed closely by Perseus’ “Seychelles” and Chromatics’ “Kill For Love”. Of course there is more to this list. Who can drive passed beloved artists such as Todd Terje, John Talabot, Poolside, The Magician, Classixx, Moon Boots, among others, or tracks like Slow Hands’ cover of Bon Iver’s “Towers” and Pional’s remix of The Rapture’s “In The Grace Of Your Love”.
It’s been an amazing year vroomers, and this is the list that proves it. Here’s your chance to revisit 2012′s most popular mpFrees. Fill it up (once again) and stay gas all the way to 2013. Enjoy!

LA’s Cosmic Kids have just unveiled the video for their awesome track “Freight To My Soul” (already posted here). The video, created by fellow house producer and visual artist Evan Stalker, fits perfectly with the tune.
“Freight To My Soul” is out now on vinyl via Chit Chat Records. It features the duo’s classy edit of Fleetwood Mac’s “Never Going Back Again” on the b-side. You can download this edit for free below.

Cosmic Kids should not need any introduction to you all by now. The Los Angeles-based duo of Ron Poznansky and Dan Terndrup are back at it again with a brand new original track, called “Freight To My Soul”. This new tune is really great: elegant, dreamy, peaceful, and lush. It’s a follow-up to their much-played “Basin Adjacent”, released as a free download via Scion A/V back in July. Give it a spin above. “Freight To My Soul” will be released in November via Chit Chat Records, backed with their great edit of Fleetwood Mac’s “Never Going Back Again”.
