The current exchange rate is the pits, man. To that end, three UK acts were kind enough to supply us with a trio of tracks to satisfy burning ears. It sure beats losing cash on Across the Pond travel. We've got Goldfrapp in all of Alison's mesmeric glory, the Chap and their quirky style at State 51 in London, and Switches rock the House of Blues in Anaheim, Calif.

U.K. DJ and producer Ewan Pearson has been a staple in the electronic music scene throughout the past decade. Armed with as many aliases as high profile remixes, Pearson helped solidify artists like the Rapture and Goldfrapp, remixing their tracks into floor-filling club anthems, and bridged the gap between indie rock and electro with his remixes of Franz Ferdinand and Feist. Pearson also famously reworked and renewed Depeche Mode's sacred classic 'Enjoy the Silence.'

"There has to be something that I can hear working in a different disco context," Pearson tells Spinner of his track selection. "I have to please the artist and I have to please myself, too. Nine Inch Nails I couldn't do because of a schedule thing. I turned down the first-ever Franz Ferdinand single because I was exhausted."

Pearson also waxes poetic about his biggest influence, fellow British DJ/producer Andrew Weatherall. "I have been a fan of his playing and his music since I started going to clubs in 1989," he says. "He has stayed fascinating and inspiring and relevant."

Sultry disco queen Goldfrapp just announced the tracklisting to a new remix album called 'We Are Glitter.' The disc hits stores on October 17 in the States.
