Blender: Knatterjack and Unicorn Kid
Knatterjack-Time To Pretend (MGMT Cover)
When hippy hipsters MGMT dropped their debut album "Oracular Spectacular" onto the upsuspecting masses the standout, hands in the air anthem was clearly opening track "Time To Pretend". If you assumed it couldn't get anymore epic than it already was then you might want to stay clear of Knatterjacks awsome cover version that has replaced the trippy phycadelic stylings of the original in favour of full blown orchesltral majesty. I'd like to say a little about Knatterjack but after trawling the internets music blogs it seems that no one can find out a bloody thing about the fella!

Pet Shop Boys- Did You See Me Coming (Unicorn Kid Remix)
A few months ago I happened upon Unicorn Kid at the Welly and was lucky enough to be treated to the whipper snapper (he's touring inbetween A-Levels) bash out some downright dirty 8-bit chipcore and even got to speak to him aftewards. It seems the youngster has been getting some interest with the old guard too and has recently caught the attention of Pet Shop Boys when he remixed their track "Did You See Me Coming". I'm probably the wrong person to ask I've never really "got" the Pet Shop Boys music but for me personally Unicorn Kids tweaking and new chipcore sheen really improves an otherwise average track.
