Parisian indie disco and punk house upstarts Kitsun� M�ison are back with their fifth compilation which showcases their recent hits with some unreleased remixes from some of the heavyweights on their books. Kitsun� compilations have always been one�s to check, many of their previous outings breaking new tracks from the likes of Digitalism, Boys Noize and Simian Mobile Disco that have gone on to be huge hits in their own right and this promises to be no different. It has just the right blend of live elements from the likes of The Teenagers and Does It Offend You, Yeah? to the more clubbier tracks from Digitalism while still remaining dance floor friendly, which is of course what Kitsun� are all about.
New additions to the label autoKratz� offering �Pardon Garcon� is a definite highlight, a jump up house anthem that guarantees to get any party rocking. Digitalism do their best Daft Punk impersonation on �Pogo� and the excellent Friendly Fires lead the UK charge with �On Board�. M.I.A�s effort comes out of the speakers like a welcome burst of sunshine while DatA bring the noise with some typical French house, Justice style. Some of the compilations more leftfield moments come surprisingly from Alan Braxe and Rex the Dog, who both turn in good electronic yet downbeat tracks with �Addicted� and Circulate�. All in all it�s a superb package that should appeal to both staunch fans of the label and clubbers alike.
