DOWNLOAD: "Jump Up" by Major Lazer (zShare) The Beatcakes family is heading off to Philly today to check out the Major Lazer show so this post seems appropriate. For those who haven't really been paying attention at all, Major Lazer is Diplo and Switch's Jamaican alter-ego. A little bizarre..I think its a little controversial for black-ploitation; I mean if you check out Major Lazer's twitter its all written in like some faux Jamaican accent. The tour kicked off in Jamaica as well so idk whats going on [...]
DOWNLOAD: "We Own the Sky (Udachi Remix)" by M83 (zshare) Alright I'm a liar about posting remixes. Ukraine's Udachi takes a dubstep spin on M83's "We Own the Sky". The original is already nice and space-y sounding but Udachi just adds a killer bassline to it. Keeps the song beautiful as is and danceable. Here's what Udachi had to say about the mix: "I decided to re-master the edit i did of m83's "we own the sky" made the drums a bit [...]
DOWNLOAD: "You'll Disappear" by The Phenomenal Handclap Band (Right click, save as) Alright lets just soak in this image for half a second. Yeah, there is present day David Crosby to the right. Anyway, I love this song by The Phenomenal Handclap Band. Its just disco-y. No real purpose to posting this song apart from the fact that they are playing at New York's Santos Party House on June 25th . Its going [...]
DOWNLOAD: "Earthquake" by Little Boots (Right click, save as) DOWNLOAD: "Hearts Collide" by Little Boots (Right click, save as) Alright laying off the remixes of remixes of covers of remixes for a bit and time for some original stuff. I've been a little slow on downloading Little Boots for my obsession with her back in the winter. Album's been released in the UK already like a week ago [...]
DOWNLOAD : "Fire" by Lupe Fiasco (Sharebee) Here's a tagless version of Lupe's unreleased track, "Fire" off of the Fake Shore Drive mixtape. Gotta get the mixtape here . Also thanks to SOMS for the download. Lupe's third album tentatively entitled, We Are Lasers Lasers is set to be released sometime in December. My vote is for another album name. What's with all the lasers lately (ahem, lazers and major lazer, [...]
DOWNLOAD: "Gifted (Treasure Fingers Remix)" by N.A.S.A. (divshare) So how many remixes of "Gifted" can one person post? A lot apparently. Remember the Steve Aoki remix ? Seizuriffic but still quite good. To be honest, as much as I love Treasure Fingers, I was a little skeptical about the remix just because I feel like its been done. I'm pleasantly surprised though especially in comparison to Steve Aoki's mix. It's smooth and calm but still danceable. Also, make sure to check out Treasure Finger's this Saturday at the [...]
DOWNLOAD: "1901 (Bright Lights Day Remix)" by Phoenix (zShare) DOWNLOAD: "1901 (Bright Lights Night Remix)" by Phoenix (zShare) Man Phoenix's Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix is so kick ass. How many people have been remixing the shit out of their songs? Bright Lights, a new project from Chicago, takes a stab about it with 2 different remixes, a Day and Night version. I'm not too into the Night version since its a little too trancey for me but the Day [...]
So the entire Beatcakes family went to the Lykke Li concert at a paaacked Highline Ballroom in New York this past Monday. Twas a super short set (30-40 minutes) but it's okay, we love her. She had me balling on the inside to "Tonight." I still have it on repeat btw. We've known Lykke to break it down with covers at past shows, singing to ATCQ and Vampire Weekend and such. Watch a lil bit of "A Milli" before closing out... In between her set, she took a moment to ask the [...]
DOWNLOAD: "Who Will (Buffetlibre Remix)" by Patrick Wolf (right click, save as) Not going to play like I know a lot about Patrick Wolf but I do like Buffetlibre. Song is great; its like a choir + electro beats. Look out for more Buffetlibre remixes of this song as well.
DOWNLOAD: "Knocked Up (Death to the Throne Remix)" by Lykke Li vs Kings of Leon (right click, save as) DOWNLOAD: "Knocked Up (Rodeo Mash Up)" by Lykke Li vs Kings of Leon (right click, save as) TECHNOO REMIXXXX! I had a little too much fun with Blingee.com but raving random girls are just way too easy to add in. So as most [...]
DOWNLOAD: "Turbo Love (Shinichi Osawa Remix)" by Bag Raiders (zShare) So "Turbo Love" has been around for a while now but BangGang 12s is releasing "Turbo Love" with a horde of remixes including Shinichi Osawa, K.I.M. and others. I included the Shinichi one just because its a fun dance song and shit, hes going to be opening for Fatboy Slim at Terminal 5 on June 24th . 90s Rave kids unite. This remix though is super typical Shinichi Osawa though and nothing too inspiring.
DOWNLOAD: "Paparazzi (Yuksek Remix)" by Lady Gaga (zShare) Oh my god Lady Gaga keeping it so freaking classy. Has anyone seen the video for " Paparazzi " btw? Its everything that you'd expect out of Lady Gaga including gimpy/hot mess dances on crutches. Word up Yuksek for taking advantage.
DOWNLOAD: "Hooligans (Noisia Remix)" by Don Diablo and Example (zShare) So I don't know much about Don Diablo but "Hooligans" and the assorted remixes have been freaking everywhere. I really love this new Noisia remix. It actually makes me think of some of Justice's songs a bit.
DOWNLOAD: "Spaceship" by Snob Scrilla (right click, save as) To be honest I don't really know much from Snob Scrilla but I love anything about spaceships and crap....and also electro and hip hop collaborations. This is produced by the Bag Raiders. Reminds me of MSTRKRFT or something.
DOWNLOAD: "Summertime Clothes (Dam Funk Remix)" by Animal Collective (via RCRDLBL) Animal Collective, you guys are crazy but sorry, Dam Funk's spin on "Summertime Clothes" just appeals to me more. Weird that every time I see Dam Funk I half think its like the Dutch version of Daft Punk? Random thoughts.
DOWNLOAD: "Here's What's Left (Hensforth Remix)" By RJD2 (zshare) I was a massive RJD2 fan way back when so this remix makes me happy. It starts off a little mellow and then an electro beat kicks in.
DOWNLOAD: "Confusion Girl (Don Diablo Loves to Slowdance Remix)" by Frankmusik (zshare) Happy Memorial Day weekend y'all. Damn the working life. I'm just going to listen to this song and stare at this picture tomorrow. Heres a song to get you reminiscing about chilling out on your deck/beach/porch.
