Boom Boom Wow

2009-08-30T13:04:00.000-07:00

I never saw myself posting a black eyed peas song on here, its just not my thing. However David Guetta has made a decent remix of their 'boom boom pow'. The lyrics still sound like they were written by a 10 year old, but added electronic sounds make this song endurable on the eardrums, im even going to go a little further than that and say i actually like it.

Long time no see fellas, got some more remixes take a listen. As the title suggests this post is goin to feature songs from the Scottish electric musician Calvin Harris.

He has recently played a part in producing Dizzee Rascal's new song Holiday and one of his songs from his upcoming album has been featured on the new coca cola advert. His new album 'Ready for the weekend' is set to be released on 17th August.

Ok so I have been neglecting my blog. Now normally one would apologise, however you see I neglected this blog as a test to see if anyone would notice, and nobody did. So if I did apologise I wouldn't be apologising to anybody. Truth is, recently I have been busier than a one legged man in arse kicking contest but now I am ready to show you some more remixes. Have a butchers at Clockwork's remix of Omen by The Prodigy.

Electric Feel

2008-11-17T15:23:00.000-08:00

Mgmt- Electric Feel (Dskotek remix)

The original The remix Download MP3

We are back to mgmt remixes again and today it's the Dskotek remix of 'Electric feel'. I have to say this remix is shockingly good (see what i did there), it makes me want to dance like a... thing that can dance. Much more dance floor friendly and thoroughly deserves at the very least 4 stars.

Ps if you would like to suggest a remix to be rated then drop me an email and i would be more than happy to do so. Bye for now.

Lovers Electric

Lovers Electric- Could this be (Sam la more remix)

The original The remix Download MP3

I actually heard the remix of this song before i heard the original while i was checking out Sam la more's myspace page. I instantly fell in love with it and discovered the original was created by a band called 'Lovers Electric.' a married couple based in Australia. They appear to be a relatively new band and in my opinion they have a bright future in store for them. I think their sound is similar to that of alphabeat.
5 star remix!

♥ Heartbreaker ♥

Metronomy- Heartbreaker (Jupiter remix)

Original Remix Download MP3

Liking this remix, great beats and beeps. In my opinion the original of this song was abit bland, this remix by Jupiter livens this up abit. 4 stars (again).

Walking on a dream

The original The remix Download mp3

I can't for the life of me remember when, where or how i discovered the Australian duo. But im glad i did! Here we have a remix of their song 'walking on a dream' by Sam la more. I quite like it and im giving it 4 stars.

Do the D.A.N.C.E

2008-11-13T11:04:00.000-08:00

If I were to describe this remix in one word it would be O.U.T.S.T.A.N.D.I.N.G. The best remix I have heard in a long time, its been circulating the internet for a while. If you don't have it download it! Listen to it here.

Mercury's In Retrograde

Bloc Party- Mercury (CSS remix)

It's not often i think that a remix is better than the original creation, however the CSS remix of bloc party's mercury is truely amazing, it has had me dancing on my feet all day.

MGMT-Kid's remixes...

2008-11-11T13:27:00.000-08:00

The original and also the best.

MGMT- Kids (80kidz remix)
Download MP3

A few more beeps and beats have been added to turn this into something more dancey. It doesn't deviate too much from the original, and the intro is the sex! 4 stars.

MGMT- Kids (Tyler Fedchuk remix)
Download MP3
Nothing special but still darn good, abit shorter and pacier compared to the other remixes. This one gets a 3 from me.

MGMT- Kids (Soulwax remix)
Download MP3
This is the most popular remix of mgmt's kid's currently orbiting the net, it is also my favourite out of the lot.Totally different from the original, and on first listen i found it too long and boring. However this one is growing on me like some furry foot fungus that won't go away. 4 stars rising to 5 if the foot fungus grows anymore.

Welcome!
