At the beginning of May, RAC teamed up with Penguin Prison to release their debut single "Hollywood" (Ft. Penguin Prison). Up to this point, RAC, which stands for Remix Artist Collective, had been recognized by dance music fans for their remixing virtuosity. Getting a start in 2007 with a remix of The Shins "Australia", RAC has never looked back, having compiled a list of over 200 remixes since their inception. The tables are now turned, seating RAC at the helm of creating the original content, so it comes as no surprise that "Hollywood" is receiving the remix treatment from other adroit artists, the latest being Felix Da Housecat.

A name synonymous with House music, Felix Da Housecat has been stirring up the dance floor for over a decade. Having already had success remixing names such as Madonna, Passion Pit andMiike Snow, Felix Da Housecat's latest effort looks to continue his dominance. The "Hollywood" (Felix Da Housecat Remix) builds on the already radiant, feelgood, summer vibe of the original, turning it up a notch with the remix. Picking the tempo up over the original, the remix's supplemental layer makes it so the song is about to burst at the seams from catchiness. Enjoy the song, and if you haven't already, check out the original with it's accompanying video.
