Humans

The Scion Sessions have kept the new music coming in 2013, and this continues with some new goodies from Humans in the form of an exclusive mix and a Thomas Cade remix.

The Vancouver electronic duo put together a synth-driven, danceable 48-minute mix. It's called Tour De Ciel, and the band described it like this in a statement: "This is a mix to take you places — it's for driving, biking or riding. It's to get you into the mindset of that summer destination — the beach, the cabin, the campsite; all of the above. Think of it as a reset button. It will help you melt away the stress of all those city rectangles. Keep in mind though — sometimes the journey is the best part..."

As for the remix by the Toronto/UK-based Thomas Cade, he transformed Humans' thudding, minimal dance-pop track "De Ciel" into a slow-moving, eerily pulsing mood piece that sounds a bit like it's being played underwater.

Humans and Cade are performing with Beta Frontiers in Toronto on August 2 at Parts & Labour. Get more information here.
