We bet he looks good on the dancefloor, but does Stephen Malkmus sound good on the dancefloor? We'll find out August 28, when Domino UK releases the Kindling for the Master remix EP, featuring four club-ready takes on the title track. "Kindling", from last year's Face the Truth, gets tweaked by Hot Chip, Canadian experimentalist Polmo Polpo, Emperor Machine (aka Andy Meecham of Chicken Lips), and Norwegian space disco king Prins Thomas under his Major Swellings alias.

Tracklist:

A1 Kindling for the Master (Emperor Machine Remix - Vocal)
B1 Kindling for the Master (Major Swellings Remix - Vocal)
C1 Kindling for the Master (Hot Chip Remix)
D1 Kindling for the Master (Polmo Polpo Remix)

Not much Malkmus news to report at the moment, other than that he's got one show coming up (September 8 at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon) and that the Wowee Zowee reissue is coming out in November.
