ALL THINGS GOLD 002: THE KNOCKS + ANR

With the launch of All Things Gold a raging success last month (500+ tix sold, whoa) as Penguin Prison, RAC and Reptar tore the roof off a sold out (and then some) U Street Music Hall, we're back with yet another stacked lineup to shake DC to its very core. For starters, we've got our resident partystarters The Knocks headlining what will be their first US gig in a minute with a revamped live

BACK TO BUSINESS.

And so the Year of the Captain continues. What began as an official remix for Beyonce's ladies night anthem "Girls" quickly turned into a whole new beast once Captain Cuts introduced it to the Beastie Boys' classic of the same name, and my how these "Girls" play nicely together.Leaving the traditional major label remix approach in the rearview, the Captains take a detour and go the mash up route,

POPSHOP RADIO 007

After emerging unscathed from an adult-sized weekend that saw us kicking off a new great American pastime with the sold out Stars + Stripe Festival, we're back in the game with a bit more color and a much deeper thirst for live music and free drinks. What better way to get back in the swing of living the NYC dream than another Popshop to shake up your daily routine? We've got a rogue's gallery of

POPSHOP007: PENGUIN PRISON + K. FLAY

NYC you're killing it this summer. Rooftops are buzzing, the streets are alive and there's beautiful people everywhere you look. And things are only gonna get better next week when we throw down Neon Gold style with an all-American Popshop for the ages July 7th at Tammany Hall. But first let's talk about last month for a minute, because it might have been the biggest Popshop yet - Body Language

SO PULL THE SWITCH.

So last week our main man Xaphoon Jones promised a new beat to his fans when he hit 20,000 followers, and now that he's eclipsed that milestone he's come to us to help him deliver the goods with an exclusive premier of his remix for Grouplove's "Colours". This track's already been remixed into oblivion and beyond by the homies Captain Cuts, but here Xaph's intertwined elements of their

INTRODUCING: BEYOND GOLD.

It's been an exciting year of new ventures for us here at Neon Gold, but we're not about to stop now. First came Popshop, bringing you the best new pop music the world has to offer the first Thursday of every month in the heart of the LES. Then there was our publishing joint venture* with Warner/Chappell, which resulted in the signing of Alex Winston as our first foray into the pub world. And up

THIS HOUSE IS FULL OF MIRRORS.

Suns out guns out and the Captain Cuts dudes are just in time, bringing the heat once again on yet another completely unfuckwithable remix. This time it's fellow Golden State dreamweavers Superhumanoids going under the knife, as the Captains light a fire beneath frontlady Sarah Chernoff's beautiful, lilting vocals - and in turn, a fire betwixt our loins - transposing them over club-swallowing

TAKE A SECOND LOOK AND YOU'LL SEE.

Captain Cuts exploded onto the scene earlier this year with their 1000% gamechanging remix of Grouplove's "Colours", and now we're thrilled to have them back with their sophomore effort on our latest Neon Gold release with Icona Pop (available here at the Neon Gold Shop). We've already made our feelings known about "Manners" (basically that it's pop music perfected), but now here's the Captain

THAT'S WHAT WE CALL IT.

We first introduced you to Grouplove (then known simply as Group) last March via the world premier of their triumphant anthem "Colours", which now 12 months on is set to become the band's debut single when it sees release via our sister label Chess Club next month. The original still sounds every bit as vital and refreshing now as it did when we debuted it last spring, but now breathing new life
