Slow Down

Posted September 7th, 2010 by admin. Comment (0).


Five tracks in here, by Darius, Zero 7 / Kelly Dean, Au Revoir Simone / Little Loud, and Slum Village / Aonoch. The blog’s been having a lot of rougher remixes lately, so this one post is to compensate. Got a few nice tracks for your lazy Sunday afternoon..

Maliblue
Shiny Disco Club is still a pretty young label from Lyon, France founded in June 2010. (Their first release ‘La Jeunesse Retrouvée’ by Kartell was featured before on this blog.) We came across another good artist from the label, Darius. The track that came up on Darius’ Soundcloud page today is a slow house jam that has Shiny Disco Club written all over it: ‘Maliblue’.
Download: Darius – Maliblue

Destiny
Yes it’s a classic by Zero 7, ‘Destiny’. California-based picked it up and made a little Dubstep edit out of it wich makes the track a bit more intense but still great for your lazy Sunday afternoon.
Download: Zero 7 – Destiny (Kelly Dean Remix)

Tell Me
Brittish
Little Loud joined Soundcloud recently and has started uploading his remixes which have already been around the blogs. Earlier he posted his Goldfrapp ‘Believer’ remix (You can check his Soundcloud page if you want that one..), and his latest post is his remix of Au Revoir Simone’s ‘Tell Me’.
Download: Au Revoir Simone – Tell Me (Little Loud’s Dreamwave Remix)

Go Faster
Japanese remix on Slum Village’s ‘Faster’ by Aonoch. Would love to tell you all about this guy but unfortunately We No Speak Japanese. The only English thing Aonoch says on Soundcloud is: ‘I do remix of your music free.
Please send demo to me.
‘. Maybe you should just send your stuff over there, this remix sounds pretty good:

Time For Plan B

A lot of posts lately, yesterday had three and today you get one more, but it’s a short one tough.. Exclusive Plan B and a fresh Kid Kudi. First: Time For Plan B. That’s his name on Soundcloud if you’re looking for him. Brittish rapper/singer/actor Benjamin Paul Ballance-Drew, orPlan B, has joined the Cloud and is now uploading all kinds of mayhem for you to download. How about these remixes:
Download: Plan B – The Recluse (Nero Remix)

Download: Plan B – Prayin’ (Breakage Remix)

Did You Get It
Next to that we have a pretty fresh Kid Kudi recording. It got up on Official.fm today and appearantly (well, obviously) it’s from a mixtape on youngmoneyhd.com. With the mixtape being theirs and all, go get it there.
Listen: Kid Cudi – Did You Get It

The Dubstep Treatment.

Posted September 1st, 2010 by admin. Comment (0).


More big guys getting Dubstep remixes/edits: Incubus gets a STYTE Dubstep treatment and High Rankin does an Ian Brown remix. There are dozens more of these kinds of remixes but after a while it’s just same old same old all over again. These two just stood out a little more for today.

The Warmth
Actually this is pretty much like the original but with the heavy kicks/snare and a nice little wobble in the backgroud. (Properly tagged ‘edit’, not remix.) It’s what Styte did with ‘The Warmth’ by Incubus. Nice one.
Download: Incubus – The Warmth (STYTE Re-edit)

F.E.A.R.
This recording by Ian Brown is just good, remixing it is probably a nice way to just integrate it into a Dj-set. The Remix was made by High Rankin and Evolve Or Die. The guys know what it is and so they went and made a new genre for this track: Shameless-rape-of-a-classic-step. Don’t matter, it’s a great remix anyway.

Eat This. (II)

Next tracks are a bit more dancefloorish. We have Paris Wells / Dublin Aunts, Arcade Fire / Rob Hawk, and Cassius / Mattanoll.

Through & Through
This one has been out for a few days now, but we still meant to mention it. A Dublin Aunts remix from Melbourne, Australia. The duo does a pretty good job describing themselves: “We write music. We DJ. Together. It cuts the work in half. Plus we are each other’s biggest fan so there’s always at least one set of hands in the air“.
Download: Paris Wells – Through & Through (Dublin Aunts Remix)

Sound Of Violence
The Cassius Remix contest has doubled it’s contributors since the last time we checked. Today the competition closed with a little over 200 remixes to be judged. We have been featuring more Cassius remixes but here’s one more by Mattanoll. Good Luck to all remixers!


The Suburbs
This guy actually is from Dublin. It’s Rob Hawk and he remixed ‘The Suburbs’, a track by The Arcade Fire. He did it well too, the original track feels very different from the remix, but both sound very good.

Eat this.

Now there’s a whole lot of music here, guess it’s best to split it up in a few different posts. This first one has got Zero Loss with N.E.R.D. samples, Undaground Soundz ft. King Singh, and an unpronouncable GLXBLT. Speakers on full volume please.

Rockstar (V2)
Wouldn’t you use Pharrell Williams vocals if you had the chance? Zero Loss did it, using the lyrics from N.E.R.D.’s ‘Rockstar’ in their latest Drum’n'Bass creation. Sounds like they come from the same neighbourhood as Noisia, right? Oh wait, they do..
Download: Zero Loss – Rockstar (v2)

In The Dark
Bit more subtle Dubstep recording here by Undaground Soundz. It’s called ‘In The Dark’ and the Birmingham producer recorded it together with vocalist King Singh. Great track, so we’ll even forgive him for spelling his name with a Z..
Download: Undaground Soundz ft. King Sing h- In The Dark

Abell 2029
Behind the name: GLXBLT goes a pretty brilliant Finnish producer who makes music in the range of Breaks, Drum’n'Bass and of course Dubstep. Really, go check his Soundcloud page.. His latest track: Abell 2029.
Download: GLXBLT – Abell 2029

All featured tracks are downloadable and if you like a track you might as well go and thank it’s creator for putting it up here. You can do that by paying for a track with a tweet. (The pay-with-a-tweet system also works with Facebook now, thanks to the guys from Innovative Thunder.)

More Power

Posted August 22nd, 2010 by admin. Comment (1).


In this post: Kanye West vs. The Glitch Mob, Cassius / Rooty, and Kaskade / Alex Gaudino. Thanks to the people who are helping out with finding these tracks. All your suggestions are welcome, send ‘em to our inbox!

Power
Now let’s start off with a tip. Frail Limb Purity. These guys run their own blog and every now and then they publish awesome remixes. They’ve got their paws on Noisa, The Glitch Mob, Justice and Rage Against The Machine just to name a few. Their latest track is a mashup of Kanye West’s ‘Power’ and ‘Bad Wings’ by The Glitch Mob.
Download: Kanye West vs. The Glitch Mob – Power / Bad Wings

Sound Of Violence
Cassius’ Sound Of Violence Remix Contest is coming to and end at the 1st of September. It doesn’t look as big as Glitch Mob’s or Kavinsky’s latest contests, but there are some good remixes. One of the better ones is the Rooty remix from Warsaw, Poland. (Thanks for the tip Julius!)
Download: Cassius – The Sound Of Violence (Rooty Remix)

I’ll Never Dream / I’m In Love
Apparently Kaskade is not done uploading personal mash-ups yet. This time he took the vocals of his own track ‘I’ll Never Dream’ and put them on Alex Gaudino’s ‘I’m In Love’. Once again, simple yet effective.

Pardon My French

Posted August 20th, 2010 by admin. Comment (0).


In addition to last post, here are some more old new classics by Krafty Kuts / Cassius, Jean Jacques Smoothie / Adam Madd, and St. Germain / Max Enforte. (Post is written by yours truly somewhere at the southern coast of France, pardon the French picks.)

Cassius’ Groove
Some producers are really getting the hang of it. Selling music might not be the best way to make cash anymore (As opposite to playing gigs), but giving recordings away is a great way to keep the hungry fans sathisfied and Krafty Kuts knows. He is handing out exclusive re-rubs almost weekly. His latest little present is an edit of Cassius’ ‘1999′.
Download: Krafty Kuts vs. Cassius – Cassius’ Groove

2 People
The next classic: 2 People by Jean Jacques Smoothie. AustralianAdam Madd picked it up for a 2010 re-edit.
Download: Jean Jacques Smoothie – 2 People (Adam Madd Remix)

So Flute
St. Germain’s ‘So Flute’ found it’s way into clubs, mainstream music and even movies since it’s release in 2000. Tracks like these can’t not get remixed. DutchmanMax Enforte found the track, beefed it up with a bigger snare and made a re-edit of the thing. Très fort.
