Ik weet niet wat het is met Maroon 5. De Amerikaanse band, die zeer bedreven is in het maken van een crossover van pop en rock, is muzikaal niet vernieuwend, maar door strakke producties en catchy refreintjes hebben ze een aardig arsenaal aan hits opgebouwd. En zoals ik zei: ik weet niet wat het is met Maroon 5. Aan de ene kant is het allemaal misschien niet heel bijzonder, maar ik vind het toch vaak lekkere licht verteerbare muziek, goed voor op de zondagmorgen . En weer weet ik het niet met deze gasten. Hun laatste release [...]
Maroon 5's remix album, Call and Response , is (in concept) very cool. There are various artists remixing M5 songs, with widely differing backgrounds. From Pharell to the Cool Kids; DJ Quick to Deerhoof, you get some serious hip hop credibility fused with indie style. Throw a little Mary J. Blige and Rihanna vocals on top of the already talented pool, and the end result is a surprisingly strong collaboration. Again, in concept- very cool. In practice? Well… The Hmmm… [...]
Off the Maroon 5 "Call & Response" Remix album, which is in stores now. The video was directed by Eric Wareheim of the Adult Swim show, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!

Australian popsters Cut Copy have a extensive collection of remixes of their track 'Far Away.' Enough that after collecting 4 of the best, we've finally decided to post them. Who made the cut: Fellow Aussie's Bag Raiders , Damn Arms ( G.L.O.V.E.S ), Hundreds of Thousands and New Yorkers The Golden Filter . Cut Copy'll be in Toronto this March for a North American tour after finishing off their current Australian one. Cut Copy - Far Away (Bag Raiders Remix) [...]
I admit to being a closeted Maroon 5 fan. Well a closeted It Won't Be Soon Before Long fan, I will admit Songs About Jane was a baseball-sized wad of bubble gum pop. But I find it hard to believe that one, without prior knowledge (and preconceived disgust) of Maroon 5, could not fall in love with the electro-funk-R&B amalgamation Mr. Levine and his band present on their sophomore album. The funk presented on Makes Me Wonder will not be denied. You will snap your fingers. You will sing. You will pop [...]
Eric Wareheim is one-half of the duo Tim and Eric , best known for their creation of the shows Tom Goes To The Mayor and Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! on Adult Swim. Wareheim has directed videos for Ben Folds , MGMT and The Bird and the Bee . Apparently he also has directed Maroon 5's If I Never See Your Face Again . It looks like no one from the band is in it, but I don't think he would do this just [...]
Original post link: http://www.confrontmagazine.co m/web/2008/12/10/2-out-of-3-ar e-bad/ December 10th, 2008 - Written by stevek In the few years I've been reviewing music for CONFRONT Magazine, I've learned a lot about the music business. For instance, the last couple of weeks at the end of one year and the first couple of weeks that begin the next there is a lull in music releases; little-to-nothing comes out, and what does come out isn't exactly 'A' material.Case in point: Maroon 5's latest, 'Call and Response' [...]
When there's new Quik, it must be a good day. "Shiver" is from Maroon 5's remix album, Call & Response , which dropped this past Tuesday. It's produced by Compton's finest and is funkier than George Clinton's pop-filter . On a side note, the beat reminds me of a certain classic rock hit from the 70's, I believe. I know it has an extremely distinct raspy-voiced male vocalist, reminiscent of Van Morrison, but I can't pinpoint the song for the life of me. Help. [...]
Ok, so I guess I am slightly embarrassed to be making this post. Any self-respecting blogger knows that in order to keep your audience, you are not allowed to post on Maroon 5, Mariah Carey, Nickelback, or anything on CMT for fear of losing your status as a "tastemaker" (which I've never actually considered myself as). For this reason, it might come as a shock to you to see me post this Maroon 5 remix. Let me explain why I feel the need to share with you: 1. "Harder to Breathe" was HUUUUGE when it came out and [...]

There has been a lot said, both positive and negative, about the influence of PitchforkMedia.com on music. Pitchfork proponents hail it as a one-stop-shop for trustworthy opinions on music that don't pander to the masses. A brain-trust of witty, insightful writers combine to make a whole lot of music available to the masses. A favorable review from the King of Hipster Media can vault an unknown band into the spotlight (see: Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire, Titus Andronicus), giving opportunities to bands without huge advertising budgets, savvy managers, or more than a [...]
For all the Preeeeeemo heads out there.. I'm gonna go ahead and put up the zShare to this.. I have a feeling that the RIAA be lurking dem Maroon 5 links.

Call And Response: The Remix Album is the 2008 album by Maroon 5 . These NOW art-rockers (just my assumption based on their choice of indie acts) remixes hits from indie faves like Of Montreal and Deerhoof seems oddly conceivable. The group's brand of bubblegummy pop is the perfect candidate for a remix treatment, don't you think? It also features remixes of hit singles and tracks from Maroon 5's first two studio album's Songs About Jane and It Won't Be Soon Before Long by various artists and producers. The best remix, in the album, Deerhoof's blip heavy "Goodnight [...]
Usually really enjoy their remixes, but this one fell a bit short... Maroon 5 - This Love (Cut Copy Galactic Beach House Mix) (ALT) It's too bad... having them remix Maroon 5 sounded like such a cool idea.
Ok, before the Maroon 5 Call & Response: The Remix Album drops tomorrow, I have to lace you with one more track from the album remixed by DJ Premier. As a bonus, because that's how we roll, we have the track "Goodnight Goodnight" remixed by Kno that didn't make the final cut for the album. Make sure you cop the album tomorrow which features appearances from remixes from Pharrell, Ali Shaheed Muhammed, Just Blaze, The Cool Kids & more! Download: Maroon 5 - "Secret" (Premier 5 Remix/ Produced by DJ Premier) [...]

Oh jeez. Bad hangover. That makes two this week - probably not healthy but it's the Christmas season - excessive drinking is allowed. The pictures above are from the Serbian's leaving drinking extravaganza at Amber on Thursday - he got a rad job in Belgrade and will be out there for 6 months...or possibly forever. I'm sad :( But how classic is that picture with him and Ideal Man?! He always wanted to be a ventriloquist's puppet....anyway, I'm still in Socal and watching Pregnant Best Friend (!) (formerly English Best Friend) run around the kitchen which is making me dizzy [...]
