Astralwerks has added live snaps (by ace photog Nick C.) from the duo's March tour to
the Cassius Gallery. Our favorite Mining Co. guide, Jen the Dance Music
guide, is running a little give away for Cassius "1999" CDs
(http://dancemusic.miningco.com). Landing May 4th is "Feeling For You," the
first U.S. commercial 12" release by French dance music maestros Cassius.
"Feeling For You" is the follow-up to the band's promo-only Billboard dance
chart hit "Cassius 99." Featuring remixes by Les Rythmes Digitales, DJ
Medhi and the Cassius DJ Tool mix, this 4-track slab of funky French wax
also includes a bonus track for DJs, the full 9 minute version of "Cassius
99". Artwork is by the ever creative Parisian team known as La Funk Mob,
who directed the band's first video. Check out the new mixes on the
"Feeling For You" page at
here. You can also check
out the Evan Bernard directed "Feeling For You" video (which gives you a
bit of a clue as the to origins of the Cassius superhero) over in the video
section here.
