Approved: Villains (SNAP Of The Day)

LA duo Villains, known for remixes of Hot Chip, Britney Spears and Bloc Party, are praised for their massive electro anthems.

This LA duo have been remixing noteworthy tracks for some time, and were behind a remix of Hot Chip's 'Ready For The Floor' that picked up some buzz on the Hype Machine radar last year. Recently they seem to have kicked it up a gear, though, getting involved with pop heavyweights like Britney Spears ('Circus') and being commissioned for their second Bloc Party rerub ('Ares'). Of course, like every other bugger with even a vague gap in their schedule, they were also in cahoots with the NASA project recently. Specialising in 'massive' electro anthems of the obvious-where-this-one-is-going variety, they're comfortably filed next to the likes of Erol Alkan, Boys Noize and co, and perfectly suited to soundtracking the entire party sequence in the next episode of Skins. And I mean that entirely complimentarily.
