Tomcraft ’s amazing “Boogie Nights” from last march is still unforgotten, but it was time for his next bomb, produced again in cooperation with studiomate Tobias Lützenkirchen.

Using the main theme from one of Tomcraft’s favourite films “Basic Instinct”, this track should become a milestone in atmospheric clubmusic for the german techno legend. Belgian wonderboy Ramon Tapia added his first remix for Great Stuff, just after release of his fantastic mini album “Mini Jack”, which gets massive props from all around the globe. The bonus track “They Don’t Know” is a simple but very effect! ive clubtune with its driving stabs and exploding breakdowns.

To mark this World AIDS Day, on Monday only, Starbucks will contribute 5¢ for every single handcrafted beverage purchased at participating stores.

In honor of their partnership, the iconic Empire State Building will turn (RED) too. If you’re in New York City, it’s a great way to remember to do something good this World AIDS Day.

As Bono said, “It’s pretty mind-blowing to think that millions of people can buy (RED) going about their daily lives and in doing so raise millions of dollars to fight AIDS in Africa. That’s not a bad hit from your caffeine.”

Bruce Springsteen’s single “Working on a Dream” is available for FREE in the iTunes Store and on BruceSpringsteen.net today ONLY.

The track will be a paid download in the iTunes Store from tomorrow through December 8. So get your skates on now!

Springsteen’s new album ‘Working on a Dream’ has been set for January 27 release on Columbia Records. ‘Working on a Dream’ was recorded with the E Street Band and features twelve new Springsteen compositions plus two bonus tracks. It is the fourth collaboration between Springsteen and Brendan O’Brien, who produced and mixed the album.
