    Although the French electro-madmen of Club Cheval have been very busy performing globally, they've taken time out from their incessant partying to graciously hook us up with the newest installment in our Keep Watch series. This is clearly a mix made by international nightlife moguls: It features a jacked-up blend of house, Hot 97-esque sexjams, and cerebral techno remixes which make this edition of Keep Watch appropriate for discerning partiers of all different creeds. If we're to believe what we hear in this selection of tracks, booty-dropping and "Bodytalk" in general are universal languages.

    It's no wonder the mix is so diverse – Club Cheval is a team of four well-respected DJs that all come from different stylistic backgrounds. They're kind of like the hot boy band of the DJ world in that they've got the rock 'n' roll one, the retro one, the cool younger one, and the hip-hop one...and they're all totally dreamy!

    You shouldn't expect any canned radio anthems from this wild crew, though: Panteros666 is a professional drummer who has played with Sexual Earthquake in Kobe as well as The Teenagers, and this intimate familiarity with dirty beats is reflected in his affinity for thumping, tribal percussion in his remixes. Canblaster believes that everything old can be made new again and uses vintage synthesizers and equipment to showcase that idea. Myd's fresh take on classic dancefloor goodness has made him a favorite of top-notch DJs Solo, Brodinski, Sinden, and Radioclit. Finally, Sam Tiba drops his hip-hop knowledge in the group's tracks, tweaking them with bits of ghetto goodness throughout the mix.

    Together, their stellar remixes have cropped up in our Keep Watch series in the past, and we're glad to give them the space to show us what all their talents can do when you turn them loose for an hour or so. They use both their individual and collective skills to showcase their sublimely cut-up tracks on this mix, then diplomatically juxtapose them with R&B of the sing-songy persuasion, as with Omarion's jump-rope-rhyme catchy "I Think My Girl Is Bi." The standout tracks come from the group's own Myd with the slinky "Octodip" as well as Canblaster's fresh remix of Drop the Lime's "Hot as Hell," which will almost certainly help you become fluent in the language of grinding.
