DOWNLOAD THIS NOW: Raime’s Rare Mixes For Blackest Ever Black, Sonar and FACT

Raime's ridiculously rare DVD/CD release from earlier this year

After releasing an utterly flawless EP and 12” last year, Raime have remained relatively silent in 2011 aside from a CD/DVD package that was limited to just 50 copies. So yeah, they’re total cock teases, although the London duo is delivering a new AA single (“Told and Collapsed”/”You Will Lift Your Frame Clear”) through Blackest Ever Black next month. In the meantime, we thought we’d share their three acclaimed mixes: the You Can’t Hide Your Headcrack CD-R, the Sonar exclusive that was expanded on Living In the Gaps We Cannot Jump, and a recent FACT entry. Perfect All Hallows’ Eve music basically…
