Danish downtempo dub-bers Lulu Rouge, comprised of DJs T.O.M. (Trentemøller’s touring partner and right-hand for the last three years) and Buda, have been busy since the release of their debut album Bless You on June 9th of this year. The duo that Trentemøller calls “the next big thing to come out of Denmark” played a killer set at the Roskilde Festival on July 6th, are gearing up to play at the Amsterdam Dance Event later this month upon special request, and today announce the release of two brand new remix collections. Each disc presents four different remixes of debut single “Bless You,” which features vocals by seven-time Danish Music Awards nominee Mikael Simpson.
The bonus version of Bless You Remixes Part I includes a nasty cut by Pilooski, calling himself PSKI here, along with a synthy club number from Minilogue that you can download below. The duo’s compatriot Trentemøller makes an appearance on Part II with his remix of the haunting track, while 16-year-old production prodigy Mike Sheridan adds his unique take to the second volume as well. Parts I and II are available in all digital stores today. Tracklists after the jump.

This week, Copenhagen-based DJ T.O.M and DJ Buda unveiled their debut album, Bless You, under the moniker Lulu Rouge. Thomas Bertelsen aka T.O.M has earned fame in the electronic realm by playing the best clubs in Denmark and all around the world for more than 10 years, alongside popular Danish electronic artist Trentemøller. Beatmeister Torsten Bo Jacobsen aka Buda is well-known for his production works with Sergio Mendes, Le Cirque du Soleil and Telepopmusik.
T.O.M and Buda have gathered to establish a new landmark in deep, dark down tempo music. Lulu Rouge’s tormented sounds are heavily influenced by electronic pioneers Kraftwerk, and New Wave acts The Cure, and Depeche Mode.
