The Bloody Beetroots, signed under Dim Mak Records, have a new track coming out called T*A*P*E* which pays homage to analog recording and playback equipment. The track is quite different from their other uptempo italo-house material, and is instead rather mellow and beat-oriented.

A favorite track of mine by the italian duo is their remix/rework of Metallica’s Seek and Destroy which they have re-titled Ill to Destroy.
