Passion Pit Unvelis "Little Secrets" April 24

Are you a "Secret" remix genius? Then throw your hat in the ring for Passion Pit's remix contest for a new song off their forthcoming LP, Manners, which is due out on May 19 via Frenchkiss. The Massachusetts electro-rockers are offering snippets of the track "Little Secrets" through their site, encouraging fans to trade with other participating remixers and build their own versions. Fans will vote on the final products, and of the top 10, five will be hand-selected by Passion Pit to be released as part of a special vinyl version of "Little Secrets," while the five runner-ups will receive a copy of the vinyl and a signed Manners CD.
