Every once in awhile, during one of those "old school" mixes radio DJ's like to spin during the lunch hour, a TLC classic is pulled from the '90's vaults, resulting in sighs of bliss over a superior urban music era and the reminded ideal that the Crazy, Sexy and Cool trio were the the last great girl group to have ever done it (Props to Destiny's Child, but their hard-to-ignore Beyonce-centric ways kind of spoils the whole "group" thing in our eyes). No, they weren't as glamorous as some and didn't have the amazing vocal chops of others, [...]
It's raining in Brooklyn. And when it rains, it pooouuurs... remixes! Ahhhhh! A bakers dozen of the hottest, freshest, gooeyest (sp?), finger-lickinest good remixes to hit my inbox in the past week. Chiddy Bang - Truth (Ft. Passion Pit's "Better Things") / We are big Chiddy Bang fans over here at TBE but their last effort was lackluster at best and it's awesome to see them return to mic-shredding form on this killer rework of Passion Pit. Miike Snow [...]
( fffound ) This is not blogging. Sorry again for not being on the up and up with music. Last week I worked 70 hours on Monopoly and this weekend I drove to/ from NYC to help a friend move into Brokelyn. For real, where's the glory in saying you're from Brooklyn? No where. Anyway, I was able to sift through submissions and I've narrowed them down to what you see below. Andreas Tilliander + New Moscow - Caught in a Riot (Kite Remix) (darker) Andreas Tilliander + New Moscow - [...]

(via a Flickr search for " pepper " and found this awesome shot) Just got the second installment of killer tunes by a dude named Yukon Ho with an original track called "Spicy". Last time we heard from him he sent us over a remix of Matt and Kim 's "Daylight" and you can hear that by clicking here . Check his myspace for some more tracks and/ or follow him on Twitter to get your creep on (I'm joking, it's not creepy... is it? I don't know, if it's [...]
So this is a mix Yukon Ho and I (LA Vice) did for my two good friends Matt & Kim. They are very talented artists and awesome people as well. Their live shows are amazing. Next time their in your town hit em' up! I highly recommend you to download this track, you won't be disappointed! Matt & Kim - Daylight (L.A Vice & Yukon Ho Extended Mix) (mp3) [...]
So I kinda feel like a dick because I had this track sent to me ages ago and I'm only just posting it. At first listen I disregarded it and now I'm starting to regret it. It popped up on my shuffle the other day and it made me realize just how good this Matt & Kim remix is. Everyone and their effing neighbor knows about Matt & Kim , mainly for their feel-good-indie tunes and quirky YouTube videos , but also because of their tracks being remixed. With their simplistic vocals and basic [...]
The day before yesterday the rain came. Yesterday it continued...then became colder. Today it's still here and it's even colder. Grey days. Early nights.
