Electro pop duo La Roux have been tapped for the second edition of Sidetracked, a mix series on Renaissance.

News of the mix comes a year after the release of La Roux's self-titled debut album, which promptly launched the duo to international stardom, penetrating charts in the US and Europe with tunes like "Bulletproof" and "In for the Kill."
Sidetracked presents a diverse array of newer tunes and older gems, beginning with "I Second That Emotion" by '80s post-punk group Japan and coursing through selections by Fever Ray, Heaven 17 and French electro act Kavinsky. Frontwoman Elly Jackson says of the compilation: "It's a really nice snapshot of both our musical influences. A lot of the tracks on here are songs we listened to while making our album set alongside some new stuff we're into..." Also included is La Roux's previously unreleased cover of "Under My Thumb" by The Rolling Stones,
which the duo often fit into their live sets. The compilation follows last year's edition by Andy Butler of Hercules & Love Affair.
