Another collection of recent remixes for your listening pleasure. Some real gems in a here and a few others that are more "interesting" than "awesome." Read on. Rock om. And if you want more jams by any of these artists use the 'tags' links at the bottom of the post! ♫ Vampire Weekend - Cousinz (Toy Selectah Mex-More Remix) / The challenge of the evening is going to have more fun than this remix. It's as if the song itself is grinning from ear to ear. And jumping up and down. ♫ Boy [...]
Here we go again... I'm a bit late with TTYN this week thanks to connectivity issues, but here we are finally with this week's post. Before I let you go download just a quick rant. I was reading an article about Milli Vanilli and how it's been 20 years since they won the Grammy, lost the Grammy, lost their career, and then were essentially exiled from music. What's interesting to consider is that if they were around now, would anyone even care that they didn't sing those songs? The domination [...]
We've missed out on a bit over the last few days because, as some of you may have realised, our site was plagued by a big fat "Account Suspended" message the last few days. Don't go stressing out though, we're not in any trouble as such - just went over our server limit due to a huge spike in visitors, so can't really complain about that. Hopefully February will be a better month for us here! Anyway, A-Trak has collab'd with fellow Canadian Drake on a remix of Drakes 'Money To Blow', appropriately naming it 'Loonies To [...]
Photo This week is eargasmic, to say the least. I've been receiving a lot of mp3s and I promise you, the ones in this post are surefire ways to pump your week. New stuff from Goldfrapp's album Head First, Joanna Newsom's 81, Hot Chip graces this blog once again with I Feel Better, Dangerous Muse, Lemonade and a recent discovery for me, Wakey Wakey, is something to check out too. Dave Wrangler also does a The xx of Stars. Broken Bells (which is The Shins plus Gnarls Barkley) is in with their [...]
The week before the Super Bowl is always the loneliest week of the year. It's so bittersweet. The thought that there will be only one more game of meaningful football until September. Sigh. I'm happy to see that the Saints made it to the big dance. At this point, I'm 50% sure about Favre being 50% sure about coming back. On a music related note, the Grammys are this Sunday, and I can't say that I'm too excited. The nominees are the same year after year and the voters seem a bit out of touch with [...]
So yeah yeah the weekend is here and it is gonna be a hell of a time! So much crazy stuff going on this week. Fake Justice is out a supposed new track by Daft Punk...the electro world is a bit on tilt from all the hype. Also found out that I might be helping throw the infamous Anthem Coachella party again. I am super psyched about this as I have helped out in the past and it is always insanity in the sun! Get ready for that. This weeks playlist is full of a lot of great stuff and [...]
The XX – Stars (Dave Wrangler reMix) The XX – Crystalised (Popular Damage Assimilation)
We've had a couple of reMixes of The XX (who, apparently, haven't split up) drop into the electronic rumors Inbox this week, so listen up! Dave Wrangler take on the track 'Stars' and ends up with an almost old school EBM powerhouse, all heavy kick drum and arpeggios which seems to counterpoint the sparkling melody line. Popular Damage assimilate 'Crystalised' and produce something equally as heavy. This time, though, it's a big Electro banger that we find with some choppy distorted lead lines worthy of Justice [...]

NFL Championship WEEKEND! I don't have a horse in this race, but going to New Orleans a couple of months ago has kind of made me like the Saints. The passion behind their fans is burning one. Their team has never been to the "BIG SHOW". On the AFC side, I like the J-E-T-S. Any spawn of Buddy Ryan is OK in my book. Especially the evil spawn named Rex. Toro Y Moi: "Timed Pleasure (Body Language Remix) " (via P4K ) The Antlers - Two [...]
Ok...I know. I didn't get chance to post Ten Tracks You Need last week. Long story, but let's just say that last week was not a good week in any way, shape, or form. It's sometimes amazing to think how 30 seconds can alter your life for days, weeks, months, years at a time. Anyway, I just wasn't in the mood to do TTYN last week or even listen to music. If you know me that's when you know something is seriously wrong. So here we are again and I'm happy to report that [...]
