Side note: Halcyon was the name of a benzodiazepine, and is the name of one of my favorite Orbital tracks from 1992. The track was titled as such because of the brothers of Orbital had a mother addicted to the medication. Kristy Hawkshaw's voice is played backwards as the vocals of the track, and she is featured in the video:

Ellie Goulding - Explosions (Stay+ Remix)
Ellie Goulding has always been dance music's darling since she burst onto the scene. I was first introduced to her through Max Vangeli & AN21's remix of Starry Eyed. Her title track from her breakthrough album, Lights, was famously remixed by Bassnectar. She became entrenched in the scene when she started dating dubstep giant Skrillex. She collaborated with Calvin Harris for "I Need Your Love" and her latest sighting was in the video for Diplo's track featuring Gents & Jawn called "Butter's Theme."
I last blogged about Stay+ with the track "Crashed" http://jackhadagroove.blogspot.ca/2012/11/stay-feat-queenie-crashed.html. Little was known then about the artist behind the name. It has now emerged it is the work of Matt Farthing of Manchester, but details still remain murky. Stay+ has remixed Ellie Goulding's Explosions off her latest album Halcyon. Its pretty darn good!
