It's not like your calendar doesn't already have a huge red circle around this Thursday marked POPSHOP, but just in case you were somehow unaware, there is indeed an amazing evening of pop and electronic sounds transpiring this Thursday eve at Tammany Hall. We've got The Knocks. We've got Penguin Prison. We've got Like Diamonds. We've got Lightwaves. And we've got a crippling addiction to hot jams and good times. To ring in the occasion, The Knocks have put together a brilliant little mini-mix featuring the artists involved Thursday and other generally amazing tracks, available for streaming and download via Soundcloud below. Get involved, the transition from "Golden Train" into the '96 Bulls remix of "Dancing With The DJ" is kind of the fucking best. Tracklisting, ahoy.

2. "Manners" - Icona Pop
3. "Golden Train" - Penguin Prison
4. "Dancing With The DJ" (Monsieur Adi/96' Bulls Remix) - The Knocks

8. "Loveliest Creature" (Lightwaves Remix) - Savoir Adore
WHERE TO GO FROM HERE.
It was nearly 18 months ago that we first declared our love for Australia's Gypsy & The Cat and their triumphant single "Jona Vark", so we're thrilled to see it finally getting the official campaign it deserves through RCA in the UK. And even more thrilled to find that with that campaign comes a brand new remix from our beloved Starsmith, who's been quiet on the remix front as of late concentrating on his debut solo album. It's one of his more interesting remixes to date, trading four-to-the-floor beats for stuttering piano chords and nimble synth flourishes, bringing a dramatic weight to the dancefloor previously absent from his mixes.MP3: "Jona Vark" (Starsmith Remix) - Gypsy & The Cat [exclusive]
UNDER THE BLUE.
There's a new thing. Lightwaves is the name, and the sound is some of the freshest electronic pop coming out of NYC at the moment. Our introduction comes by way of his debut remix, for Brooklyn darlings Savoir Adore's brilliant new single "Loveliest Creature" (cop the beautiful original here), in which Lightwaves and Savoir come together under the trees, lost amidst an enchanted forest of sprightly synths and neon fairy lights. Catch Lightwaves on the decks at Popshop next week in his NYC debut.MP3: "Loveliest Creature" (Lightwaves Remix) - Savoir Adore [exclusive]
