SERVICES are the buzz on the street. Or rather, they are the head-banging roar on the concrete-blitzed streets of NYC and Europe. TRZTN and Christopher Pravdica, former members of the well-known noise rock outfit Flux Information Sciences (Young God Records), are lauded for their impressive live performances and raw assault on conventional rock.

The unlikely pairing of A Touch Of Class, known for its electropop success, with Services, an experimental wall-of-sound rock band, creates a unique and exciting marriage of sound, a perfectly skewed angle that cuts the edge of rock and dance music. Catching the attention of Nick Zinner and Karen-O, Services opened for several Yeah Yeah Yeahs shows in the UK in May 2006.

MSTRKRFT is the production team consisting of bassist Jesse Keeler from Death From Above 1979 and Al-P, the producer of DFA 1979. Since the duo's inception a year and a half ago, they have remixed some of the hottest bands like Annie, The Kills, and other Vice Records artists like Panthers and Bloc Party. MSTRKRFT offers a new and danceable take on Services' machine-gun beats while also staying true to the track's original and unapologetic chutzpah.

A Touch of Class, NY based artists Oliver Stumm and Dominique Clausen, are the production savants that have racked an impressive roster of production work (Scissor Sisters, The Ones, Waldorf) and remixes (The Gossip, Le Tigre, Erasure). ATOC brings straight-up DANGER into the track by stripping it down to grit and pure darkness. The evil baseline and killer breakbeat make this remix a tough A-side or B-side choice for the intelligent DJ.
