My Girls Proper House Remix

My friend and I were wondering what "My Girls" would sound like if it was remixed. And, until I did a little digging, I never heard one. Turns out there's a bunch. I'll share you one of the better ones. Dude named Gigamesh did it. Enjoy.

Bangers: Weezy

Weezy F Baby just dropped this lil banger. The track has a cool breakbeat and some aight 808s. Turn it up—it's the weekend.

NEW The Sounds

Here's some new stuff from The Sounds. Haven't heard anything from 'em in awhile. SO, here you go. "Dorchester Hotel" seems to be the standout track here. It's more classic Sounds...er, sound. Anyway, both are pretty dope.

Little Boots

Here's a remix for ya. It's a little remix of Little Boots' "New In Town." The remix is a little dark and brooding, but is reminiscent of an emo Ace of Base. You think I'm joking? Get it.

By the way, Little Boots is hot. Just sayin'..


Get it here.

The Big Pink

Last time I posted something from Gang Gang Dance, I told you it sounded like a freestyle from CMY2K. This time they're remixing someone else's stuff. It still has that GGD frenetic sound, but their remix of The Big Pink's "Velvet" has a more mellow sound. Still spacey and stoned. But very cool.

For some reason, the end of this song reminds me of the symphonic ending to The Beatles; "Day in the life."

Telepathe

I read about this new band from Brooklyn called Telepathe. Much like many all-girl synth pop bands from Brooklyn, Telepathe's album "Dance Mother" is full of cool, blippy 808 beats, and plenty of soothing vocals. It sounds a lot like Au Revoir Simone—except not as cutesy. That being said, I really really like this album. I've had it on in my car for the past two days.

Sorry Folks. No more Album. Telepathe's label told me to take it down. I really recommend buying the album though.

Internet Radio

One of my favorite ad agencies in the world, Wieden+Kennedy, started an Internet radio station—they call it WK Radio. You can listen to it here or in your iTunes window.

I've been listening WK radio for a few minutes now, and I'm not super blown away by their selection.I suppose I'll give it a chance for an afternoon.

This brings me to a personality quirk of mine: I judge people by their musical selection. If I'm at a party and someone's playing Brim Full of Asha I might think it's cool—if done ironically. But if there's not a mixup of some truly good music, I cannot possibly enjoy the party. In fact I will stew about it for the next few days.

"What the hell were they thinking?" I'll remark to anyone within earshot. "Don McLean's best hits? At a kegger?"

Moral of the story: I have impeccable taste in music...often I'm too picky about it.

New Diplo Remix

New mix. A little different—in a good way.
