Boy, Oh Boy I got a second wind after I listen to Zion I and his remixes.

The A-side is set to be loaded down with hip hop covers meanwhile, the B-side is chock full of indie rock and electro tunes.

With the planning of SXSW 2009 already in full-swing, I'm nostalgic for this past year's party already. DJ Amplive featured numerous original remixes of artist that were playing the Hot Freaks! party on the second day. Early this year the Bay Area producer/DJ was commissioned by Jamie Lidell to put together some remixes. The first result of the collaboration is Out Of My System and features Lidell and emcee Zumbi from AmpLive's project Zion I ... [...]

I saw this over at The Ruby Hornet. I've been a big fan of Zion I for years (True And Livin' was one of my favorite albums when it came out) and apparently they are making some mixTAPES....yeah, they're really putting out cassettes, as a precursor to their '09 LP. The third one is just my favorite Radiohead remix from Amplive, since we're on the topic. Zion I - Rebel Without A Pause Jamie Lidell - Out Of My System (Amplive RMX) Radiohead - Nude (Amplive RMX) Can't find it. [...]

Zion I's dance with the rhythm/the rebel appears below and can be download for free [...]

Kind of like that jingle for Flinstone's Vitamins, although we're not 10 million strong quite yet. But we did just record our 100,000th visitor to the land of the Beast. Congratulations to some fortunate soul in East Sussex, Brighton (UK) who searched for Ladyhawke on elbo.ws, thus becoming the lucky milestone guest. Celebrations are at a minimal other than providing you with an utter random assortment of songs, cause frankly, it's what we do best. From me to you, have 26 tracks, one for each letter of the [...]
