Who Loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh. (5)



Hey yaaaaaw,

The Kills is an amazing American alternative rock band and Fake Blood takes their original song and thrusts some mesmerizing and bouncy synths on top of some 808s and a driving bassline to transform the original into dance mania.

The Kills - Cheap & Cheerful (Fake Blood Remix)

I don't know a lot about either the artist, Baxter, or the remixer, Lifelike, but boy am I sure glad they met up and made this song. This is pure disco shit, the playful and ambient synths over Baxter's wailings makes this song into electro-trance awesomeness.

Baxter - Proof (Lifelike Remix)

You already know that da mau5 is da man, and his song Ghosts 'N Stuff was HUGE. Dirty Disco Youth takes the original, speeds it up, chops it up, false breakdowns-climatic buildups-huge drops galore. Take that all in, they just make the original that much more dancy and energetic.

Deadmau5 - Ghosts 'N Stuff (Dirty Disco Youth Remix)

I've already blogged about these bodacious Aussies, The Temper Trap, and I guess the dubbers are in love with them too. Little known Herve puts some nasty squelch over some buzzy synths and a little bit extra wobble to keep the dub steppin'.

The Temper Trap - The Science of Fear (Herve Dub Remix)

Barletta is an electronic DJ that was remixed more times than Snooki got ham-sauced at da shore in 2009. John Roman the Canadian teen prodigy takes this song and makes it his bitch, putting his aggressive dark brooding and cranking synths over this calm original. Checkity checkity check it.

Barletta - Panther (John Roman Remix)

Snoop D-o-double-G and his nephew Cudders made a tight song, and The Filth makes this remix into filthy electro bliss, The Filth definitely captures a mixture of Deadmau5 and the Beetroots and I can't stop listening to this remix.

When in Rome...



Where's my money? (Caaaaspa)

Sorry for the late posting mis amigos, I've pretty busy AND hungover from last night's festivities which were indeed debaucherous. Another day, another dollar and we just keep moving to the beat. Now, John. Roman. Wow. This kid makes the hardest most aggressive hitting dance music I have yet to hear and these original songs by this teen prodigy are ludicrously good. Remember the name, John Roman, he is going to be HUGE in 2010 and hope to see him at some major rave events especially in SoCal. Listen to these hard hitters...

John Roman - Carnivores
John Roman - Martyr
John Roman - Ready For This
John Roman - Who's Afraid of Cornelius
John Roman - Warp It Down (Bloody Beetroots v. Laidback Luke v. A-Trak)

Who loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh.



Let your love grow tall (Passion Pit),

Enough is enough, thus I've decided to curtail the dubstep posts (sorry dubsteppers, it's only for a while) and show some awesome remixes to some random songs. We got a remix from 2009's breakthrough band and on top of everyone's album of the year list (Merriweather Post Pavillion), ANIMAL COLLECTIVE. Awesome band, if you didn't catch their album I recommend definitely picking it up and giving it a listen.


Another remix that I decided to post is a golden oldie with a hard new twist. Robin S.'s Show Me Love was an absolute ginormous hit and Afrojack's remix makes a great song that much better with a much needed electro-hard house feel.


John. Roman. This kid from T-Dot (Toronto) has made pulsing electro-hard house for the past year or so and every song and remix he has put out has such a edge to them that you can tell it's a John Roman song. Here's a remix he did of Boys Noize's Kontact Me.


Kid Cudi's "Man On The Moon: The End Of The Day" was one of the biggest albums of 2009, and Steve Aoki's remix of Pursuit of Happiness has got to be one of the most massive synth heavy party tunes that I have ever heard. Play this song at full volume and tell me you and your homies won't be dancing.


Royksopp is a Norwegian electronic duo that burst onto the scene during 2009 as well with their acclaimed drop "Junior". This remix is paralyzing with its driving bass, and Boys Noize is one of the dirtiest DJs out there right now and this remix shows why...

And last but not least, yet another break out band of 2009 was The XX and this remix of their song Shelter by little known Death to the Throne is an absolute dance hit. Sounds nothing like the original and but still captures the essence of the original while putting an electronic twist on it.
