As Chicago-based musicians like The Cool Kids and Flosstradamus outgrow their roots and play fewer and fewer local gigs in favor of sold-out shows and the worldwide festival circuit, the Windy City's air clears for the next generation of Cool to step into the spotlight. Often referring to themselves as a "Team", Starters DJs mix genres for a refreshing take on club music filled with personality. Combining popular Top 40 tunes, hyped-up blogger favorites, and hip-hop classics, the duo create irreverent mashups like Justice vs. [...]
OMG, TGIF, welcome at last to another BOTR on TWF. I thought this month I would try to get this volume of Best of the Month onto the interwebs in time for the extended holiday weekend {only extended for us Yanks, much apologies to the rest of the globe. And have fun working on Monday}. For those of you looking to get some folks dancing at a Labor Day party {or just looking to get the ladies in the mood} feel free to download all the tracks below or cruise through this link to check out all the [...]
I do seem to enjoy this mashup of Coldplay 's Viva La Vida and Nas ' If I Ruled the World by Starters . No matter how much I can't get into the whiny band, the polarity of the eternally great Queens-bred rapper makes the track soar. And yes. I know this track has been floating around blogworld for weeks, but if I had posted it a while back, would you have really swung on by here when you could have gotten from [...]
Það er voðalega hipp og kúl að dissa Coldplay þessa dagana. Mér hefur alltaf fundist þeir fínir, en hinsvegar hefur mér alveg láðst að tékka á nýjustu afurð þeirra, Viva la Vida. Eftirfarandi plötudómur segir líklegast allt sem þarf, fenginn að láni frá rateyourmusic.com : "I have to say, I wasn't expecting a new U2 album any time soon. They've got their two albums in for this decade, I figured. Imagine my surprise, then, when I heard a new U2 album playing at the record store last week. [...]
Sometimes we all just need to sit back, relax, and enjoy. Roadsworth . Oh and these... mp3: The Coast - Tightrope (Tokyo Police Club Remix) mp3: Coldplay Vs. Nas - If I Viva La Vida (Starters Remix) mp3: Lykke Li - Little Bit (CSS Remix) mp3: Santogold - Starstruck (Diplo Remix)
It feels like I've been listening to this song for ages and it is now barely getting a music video. "Viva La Vida" has proven to be Coldplay's biggest hit ever - bigger than the GRAMMY-winning "Clocks" and its carbon copy "Speed of Sound". This week, "Viva La Vida" celebrates two running weeks of keeping Katy Perry AND Rihanna off the #1 spot in the Global Track Chart (though only by 19,000 units) and it's experiencing a steady increase in Top 40 Radio (its currently beating out American Idol Jordin Sparks, fellow Brits [...]
So, same old, same old. I will now be enjoying my last day of Barcelona. I've never done this before, but here's a little role play of what I believe my Sunday in Barca will be like: "Ooh, it's sunny here. 30 degrees, in fact (Celsius, people!). Let's go grab some chocolate con churros. Ooh, Sagrada Familia/Park Guell. Lovely. More food. More drink. It's baking hot now. Walking down to the Olympic Port. Chilled afternoon. Wait until 9.30. Finally grab more food. More drink. Flight Home. End." As you can see, it should be fun. Anyway, [...]

If you haven't noticed, though I think you have, I like remixes. In the past I have posted 26 remix mixtapes (hence the term "(re)mixtape") on this blog and I think it's about time we make it official. Because Friday seems to be the ubiquitous "remix post" day in the blogosphere, I decided to make Monday Has The Beat , our 27th (Re)mixtape: Enjoy. Justice vs Wu Tang Clan - Cream Your Friends (Starters Remix) M.I.A. - Bucky Done Gun (Billion Dollar DJs For Kicks Remix) [...]
Lots of good stuff going on today, I'm not sure if you caught the other 2 posts I threw down today, but you really need to if you want a high dose of sweet beats. Continuing the trend of Sunday hotness that Palms Out have paved the way for, here are some new joints from Starters DJ's ; a local Chicago crew. If you like what you hear below... I'm sorry, when you like what you hear below, you should add the I Know Who You Juked Last Summer event to [...]
