Dear Ghandi

New Remix; Old Song

2008-09-15T14:52:00.000-07:00

This song is old, it's Heartbeats by The Knife. Yeah it's old, but this mix is gooood. It's nice to hear an old song taken care of so well by a newer DJ, but a lot of people still do it for Daft Punk songs, and there's always the classics that get revamped for today's musical tastes, whether it's the beats of Run DMC or even old Nancy Sinatra vocals.

Well this song isn't that old and we probably all bought the album when it came out years ago, but enjoy this mix.

New Kanye

2008-09-14T12:36:00.000-07:00

Okay I'm not so psyched about this song, but it's worth having, and I think Kanye's a genius. I wish him and A-Trak did a bit more things together, instead of him working with Kid Sister usually. A-Trak is dating Kid Sister right?

I'll post it for you, but Kanye put this new song up on his blog here.

Either way, here's the new Kanye, with a fresh remix by Flufftronix.

Okay old song, got popular again recently with some fanfare from the GTA IV soundtrack.

Here's the original and remix.

There Will Be Blood

2008-08-29T13:37:00.000-07:00

I've never heard an Oscar winning movie have it's theme song remixed so well.

This remix of the theme of "There Will be Blood" is... pure fantastic. The group Dolby Anol mixed the song perfectly; leaving the frightening intensity of the movie intact, and using Paul Dano's dialogue perfectly.

I don't know what the purpose of a song this stupidly ominous serves, but if any of you want to mix music at an upcoming Halloween rave or something, I'd urge you to include this special snippet of orchestrated insanity.

Ew, I sound educated.

FUCK BITCHES.

There, that's gone.

Enjoy.

99 Red Bitches

Jay Z is a fool. But this song is an amazing mashup of him and Nena. It's been out for a looooong time and been available here and there. But usually I never see it on other blog's or wherever else. So here ladies, and gentlemen, enjoy the misogyny* of Jay Z mixed with Nena.

It's "99 Red Luftproblems" by Jay-Z

enjoy.

*I'm not a misogynist.

WOLFPARADE IS WOLFPARADEZ

2008-08-26T14:04:00.000-07:00

To step from one foreign country to another. Welcome to Canada. Here's Wolf Parade. They are loosely tied to the band "Frog Eyes", which I hated. But Wolf Parade has a classic sound. The last of this style of music that I actually like, which means a lot.

And here's my favorite tracks from their new album, "At Mount Zoomer"

California Dreamer - Wolf Parade

Kissing The Beehive - Wolf Parade

My MGMT Mixes

2008-08-22T12:29:00.000-07:00

Dear Internet,

I like MGMT. I know they've been around for a while, but I like them a lot. It's two kids who got stupid about themselves and started a band for fun, in freshman year at Wesleyan University.

Now they're this fantastic tour de force of neo psychedelic fury. Shit damn that was fun to write.

Every time I listen to Kids I get this really nostalgic emotional garbage brimming up in my head.

Anyway, I met this guy named Jerry last night and he wanted to see me post these songs, so everyone else gets them too.

Enjoy.

We Want Your Kids (Starters Mix) - Adam Freeland Vs. MGMT

Time To Pretend (Justin Kase Re-Edit) - MGMT

Kids (Afterschool Dance Megamix) - MGMT

Kids Are Your Friends (Japattack Pitbull Remix) - Justice Vs. MGMT

Bouncy Tracks Made Good From Bad Pop

2008-08-21T12:23:00.000-07:00

Wooowowowhoooo!!!!

I love bouncy bouncy tracks. Chew Fu is the master of bouncy tracks. This nerdy little brooklynite made me think twice about bad pop. He'll take anything from Pitbull to Missy Elliot and drop the hardest beat underneath it, shove it in your face, and make you dance for hours with a dumbass grin plastered all over yourself.

This is HAPPY dance music, but nothing super esoteric. Nothing extra special and nothing that makes my music taste look cool, but damn, look how you can bounce your head to these songs.

I'm Da Man Of My City (Chew Fu) - Popov

I Want You Back (Chew Fu Big Room Mix) - Jackson 5

AYO Technology (Chew Fu) - 50 Cent & Timberlake

Nothing But Swedish

2008-08-20T13:44:00.000-07:00

Because we all know how fantastic the Swedes are at creating great music, furniture, and 'Dancing Queens'.

Seriously, things have gotten better since ABBA, and here's some proof for all y'all.
