Next Wednesday, The Twelves (along with Autorock and Gloves) will rock U Street Music Hall into the wee hours of morning. Does their name sound familiar? It should. They’re the masterminds behind some of the most notable remixes of the past couple of years. Take for example the following tracks (all worth a listen, I promise):
M.I.A’s “Boyz” (which made The Twelves famous)
Fever Ray’s “Seven”
Asobi Seksu’s “Thursday”
And my personal favorite… “Rich Girls” by The Virgins
+ so many more!
…
You know you want in on what promises to be an all night danceathon and lucky for you we’ve got a pair of tickets. TO WIN: Tell us what track you’d want THE TWELVES to remix next. Maybe your input might just make it into their ear…! Winner will be notified by next Tuesday afternoon so use a real email address when you comment. Can’t wait to win? Don’t worry… tickets are still available here. Word.
I Got Soul, I’m So Wasted by Wallpaper would be fantastic. A delectable velvet for the ears.
I’d deff like to hear their take on Metric’s song “Dead Disco”
“Michael Jackson” by Das Racist
Next Girl by the Black
Keys would be fun
I’d like to hear their remix of The One AM Radio- Everything Falls Apart
MARK RONSON- “Somebody to Love Me”
Grouplove – Colours, that song remixes so well, perfect summer anthem. And you forgot ‘i’m not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance’ – a twelves classic!
“Los Adolescentes” de Dënver. Mad Chile love right now.
More than this by roxy music. seriously is the jam and is just asking for a dancier beat. BOOM
First, I’d like to say I missed the Twelves at Coachella this year bc their set was at 1:00PM–like what the hell!? I’d like to hear them redo a remix of Calvin Harris – Feel So Close (Dillon Francis Remix)–so much untz/moombahton.

Charlotte Gainsbourg “Stop Motion”

would love to see what they would do with it!!!
“Did It On ‘em”. If anybody could rile up a crowd of monster-eyed georgetown kids with an electrofried Nicki Minaj bragging about shittin’ on em, it would be those Brazilian masterminds.
am I too late, wow I missed this, noooo: M83 – Midnight City
