Label GB

Death From Above (DFA) is a punk funk record label founded by James Murphy, Tim Goldsworthy, and Jonathan Galkin. The label's name was inspired by Murphy's nickname for his punishing tour PA set up while working as the live sound engineer for [a472959]. Since its establishment, DFA has become synonymous with innovative and boundary-pushing music.

DFA was born out of a passion for merging punk and funk genres, resulting in a unique sound that captivates listeners. With an impressive roster of talented artists, including LCD Soundsystem and many others, the label continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in music.

Known for their authoritative presence in the industry, DFA remains at the forefront of discovering new talent and releasing groundbreaking albums. Their commitment to quality and creativity has solidified their reputation as one of the most influential labels in contemporary music.

Sometimes the best remixes come direct from the artist themselves. Following the success of their debut EP, CCFX return to reimagine and reiterate all four tracks. At times turbulent, at others serene and throughout unabashedly raffish, these instrumental versions take the liberty of exploding the originals and thrusting the fragments into deeper and more ornate sonic territory. Minimal beats as well as pumped up breaks take the forefront here, rendering nascent atmospheric jungle and dubbed out Balearic new wave. Though it was released last October, the original EP is still making waves, having been hyped by the likes of NPR, Pitchfork and NME. With this new record, the band demonstrate their versatility in addition to their songwriting talent. Always willing to take risks, The Remixes is a masterful selector’s spin on their late 90s / early 00s indie pop-oriented sounds. The band aren’t slowing down either, as this release comes on the heels of the band’s debut live performance on KEXP and ahead of their appearance at Sasquatch Music Festival in Washington state. For fans of Omni Trio vs Everything But The Girl, Massive Attack vs Mad Professor, Andrew Weatherall vs Primal Scream.
