Our trip to Los Angeles wouldn’t have been complete without a stop at Dim Mak Tuesdays, their weekly party at Cinespace in Hollywood. This week, Dim Mak’s own Villains celebrated the release of their new single, “Victims”. Whiskey Pete, who provides the vocals on the track, was on hand to hype the crowd and perform a live rendition of the song. Get a free download of the Designer Drugs remix from RCRDLBL, and head to Beatport or iTunes for the original track and more remixes, including a fantastic dubstep remix by 12th Planet and Flinch.

Also on the bill for the night – residents Dan Oh and Them Jeans and New York’s own Telephoned in their LA debut. Tamara Sky brought a taste of her native Miami for a solid closing set.

Meet Fool’s Gold’s latest signee, Telephoned, the brainchild of Maggie Horn and Fool’s Gold DJ/producer Sammy Bananas.  The 18-track “Off The Hook” Mixtape features a new spin on many songs that we already know and (in some cases) love.

The project’s tracks are neither remixes nor covers, rather a hybrid of both. Sammy Bananas expertly morphs the original beats into infectious tunes fit for the dance floor. Paired with Maggie Horn’s vocal stylings, each song on the mixtape brings a fresh take on the original track. The reggae-tinged “Dancin’ On Me” (Featuring Jahdan Blakkamoore) samples Enur’s Calabria and has a hint of dubstep, while “Million Dollar Bill” (originally by Whitney Houston) samples Major Lazer’s “Keep it Goin Louder”. The mixtape also features reimagined versions of “aNYway” by Duck Sauce, “Turn My Swag On” by Soulja Boy (featuring Telli Gramz from Ninjasonik), and “Empire State of Mind” by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys.

Cop a free download of the mixtape from RCRDLBL or stream it after the jump. The duo’s self-titled EP, released today, is available on iTunes and features full versions of “Dancin’ On Me”, “Turn My Swag On”, “Rockin’ That Thang”, “Pop Champagne”, and “Can’t Believe It”.

Telephoned will be celebrating the release of their EP tomorrow night at Ella. Check out our events page for more details and to RSVP. You can also catch the duo at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on January 30th with Cubic Zirconia and Cage. Click here for tickets.
