The track will be available from the 16th of January from all good online retailers. The single also includes mixes from Sian and Kassey Voorn. Here’s a clip of our mix :

The tour then moved onto Australia to the legendarily badly titled ‘Brown Alley’ club Melbourne, then on to the equally legendary Chinese Laundry in Sydney, equipped with it’s new monster sound system. My new digital Soundsystem set up sounded massive in there, so much so I thought I’d better record the whole thing and serve it up again here as a live 3 hour mix which is free to download.

Here’s a list of the tour dates :

13th Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Vintage Lounge , Orloando
14th Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Suite , Jacksonville
16th Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Vangurad , LA
17th Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Public Works , San Fransico
23rd Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Brown Alley , Melbourne
24th Sept Hybrid Soundsystem @ Chinese Laundry , Sydney

Thanks again to everyone and hope you enjoy the mix.

We’ve amassed a hearty collection of material from and hope to add even more in the future, it’s amazing to finally have all our current work to date in one place and would like to thank all the people who helped us to create the site. We hope you’ll have a look through the site and let us know what you think, there isn’t the option to leave comments there but feel free to let us know what you think here. Thanks for all your support and we’ll be in touch with more updates soon.

As always, the highest quality versions are available direct from HybridSoundsystem.com. Choose from FLAC, Apple Lossless or 320kbps MP3 and the video comes in HD Blu-Ray as well as a version optimised for iPod/iPhone, all for $2.99.

We’d like to thank everyone who so generously took the time to send us their thoughts on which track we should cover. Proof, if ever it was needed, that our supporters have impeccable taste in music (aside from the person who thought Joe Dolce ‘Shuddupayourface’ would make a great cover). We’ve had loads of fun (and a few arguments) deciding on which track to cover from the 700+ suggestions you all left on our website, Facebook and Twitter. It was great to see lots of alternative genres being mentioned from artists such as Nine Inch Nails, Helmet, Pink Floyd, Kate Bush, Doves, Massive Attack and New Order to name a few.

So, we’ve decided on which track to cover and are in the process of putting it together right now. We’ll let you know what it is very soon and post a clip when it’s finished and mastered. We’ll then announce the winners and will be twisting the arm of Distinctive for a goody bag full of CDs and deluxe editions (as many as we can filtch from their office) and post them off to the winning participants and runners up.

Thank you all again for your tireless iTunes, record collection and memory bank searching for the perfect track for us to cover, you lovely lovely people.

Distinctive are planning to release a Hybrid greatest hits album to celebrate our 12 years working together and although it feels slightly odd to have reached this stage in our career, we have released four albums of which we are very proud and this will be a fine way of showcasing some of the highlights. We’ve specially chosen our favourite tracks and have curated a selection of unreleased and rare versions for the deluxe edition. The album is due for release this Autumn and will be available digitally and on CD.

We are going to record a special cover version of another artist’s track to go on the album and would like YOUR help in deciding exactly which cover this should be. If you want to get involved, please feel free to leave your suggestion on this site, Facebook or Twitter and let us know which song should be given the royal Hybrid treatment! We will record our favourite for the Classics album and give those who came up with the idea a Deluxe signed version upon release at the end of the year. We’ll also be giving ten runners up who’s suggestions we liked the most a copy of the Classics CD.

Good luck and for f&%k’s sake no Alanis Morisette!!!

We’ll be working on many parts of the score and so far have been concentrating on the dynamic action sequences, lots of mental sound design and alien battle sonics! We’ll post updates when possible but can safely say, it’s going to be massive…

Find out more on about Cowboys & Aliens on the official website.

The full release will include numerous remixes and alternative versions but until then, you can get hold of the tune here on our website by clicking on the ‘Get Blind Side Now’ button to the right.

We’ll be debuting the track during our live set at Ultra Music Festival in Miami this month and will be videoing the event for posterity, however we cannot do this alone and want to include your footage too! If you have some video you’d like to share of us playing Blind Side at Ultra, you can upload it by clicking the link below. The footage will be edited into a live video which we’ll post soon after the festival. We can use practically any type of file, from HD cameras to iPhone / Smartphones.
