Who Loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh. (4)



Love your enemy (Birdy Nam Nam),

It's Thursday, and yes it's also Spring Break; time to get debaucherous. I'm going to be gettin' my drank on in Lake Havasu, AZ, hope y'all have a great break too. And today we have yet another installment of everyone's favorite post, Who Loves Random Remixes? This week we got some awesome artists and even better remixes.

Kaskade & Deadmau5 released several songs together and each one was just pure electro-house bliss. Their song Move for Me remixed by Santiago & Bushido morphs the original ambient bliss of it into some fast paced dancing mania. Awesome drop beeteedubs.

Kaskade & Deadmau5 - Move for Me (Santiago & Bushido Remix)

Miike Snow is a huge breakout band of 2009 and these Swedes get down. Awesome alternative band that flawlessly blends electroctronic dance aspects into their music. Definitely recommend all of you to check out their self titled debut album. Redial is a DJ who has pumping out some massive remixes, and this one of Silvia (my favorite song of their album) just enhances an already great song.

Miike Snow - Silvia (Redial Remix)

I don't personally listen to a lot of Massive Attack but I do love Zeds Dead... these guys are just simply massive. Every song and remix they seem to put out just have an even bigger and heavier sound than the last one and this remix sure doesn't disappoint with some serious squelch.

Massive Attack - Paradice Circus (Zeds Dead Remix)

Oh, Crookers, I love you guys so much but I really think your album sucks... no hard feelings though, I'll keep listening to your pure electro shit. This song is why I love them, remixing Secret Handshake's Summer of 98, Crookers put their signature hard electro fidget house sound on it to make this song into an absolute banger.

Thee Bloody Beetroots are probably right behind Deadmau5 for my favorite DJ spot. When I first heard these guys I instantly fell in love with their aggressive synth heavy sound. These guys get the party started and keep it goin' all day and all night. WARP was argueably 2009's biggest electronic song and it was remixed by everyone and their momma... but R3SET's remix is just too good of a chune to not check out. So peep it.

The Bloody Beetroots - Warp (R3SET Remix)

The XX
is one my favorite bands out right now and their self titled debut album is amazing. And I'm a maniac about dubstep so when I heard this remix I was in electro bliss. MartyParty sprinkles in a dash of dubstep that transforms the XX's Infinity into some hard steppin' grime.

Who Loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh. (3)



We are from venice (The Bloody Beetroots),

I know you need that funk for you trunk to shake that ba-dunk-a-dunk all weekend long, so we're back again for the third installment of Who Loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh. It seems to be pretty popular with you guys and I ensure that these week's random remixes are extra funky. So listen and download and keep the bottles flowin' and party goin' all night long, till the break of dawn. Yaaaw.

So y'all remember Eiffel 65's smash techno-y song Blue? [da ba dee da <-- that was my best e-rendition] This kid J.Rabbit smashes the original into dub-steppy electro madness. It's hard to capture in words, just listen.

Eiffel 65 - Blue (J.Rabbit Remix)

Cut Copy is an amazing alternative-electro-dreamwave-pop [if that's a genre] group from da land down unda [Australia for you dummies]. One of my absolute favorite non-electro groups, and I don't know much about Midnight Juggernauts but they made Cut Copy's hit-song Hearts on Fire into a sweet ass remix. Check it out.

Cut Copy - Hearts On Fire (Midnight Juggernauts remix)

Kaskade is an amazing, and I heard his live set from Electric Zoo 200o in NYC, NY and there was this one song that just had a killer drop and I had to have it. So after some web hunting and help from my homie A-Stack, I finally found the song in the mix, Sgt. Slick's Right In The Night remixed by Mind Electric. It's just an awesome song with an even awesomer drop.

Sgt. Slick - Right In The Night (Mind Electric Remix)

During 2009 La Roux became one of the biggest music blog stars on the net, with breakout hits like Bulletproof, In For The Kill, and I'm Not Your Toy. And dubstep wizard Skream has been one of the guys who's been bringing dupstep into the spotlight, and this remix of La Roux's In For The Kill is massive, must download.

La Roux - In For The Kill (Skream's Let's Get Ravey Remix)

Daft Punk's Voyager was already a great song and Revolte's remix just makes it better... I'm usually a fan of original mixes but this one is definitely an exception. Plus Daft Punk is legendary so hear this shit.

COACHELLA !!!



Rockin' with the best (Laidback Luke),

So a little too much drinkin' and smokin' and not enough taking care of the body has resulted in an overall shittiness in well being and blog posting... boo, I know. So even though it's super late, I've decided to create a Coachella mega-post previewing all of the electronic artists (minus Erol Alkan and Major Lazer [WHO SUCK!]), so you can decide which ones to check out further and which ones you actually want to spend the time listening to during the day. Coachella is in our backyard in Indio, CA, and for anyone even sort of, partially, may be considering going... YOU SHOULD GO, end of story. Awesome line up, and why do you even need an excuse to spend three days raging and listening to some of the sweetest bands in the land? The answer is, you don't, so hope to see all y'all there!

I personally don't listen to alot of LCD Soundsystem (the musical project of producer James Murphy and is a mix of dance, punk & disco), but from what I've heard, I've liked and they are not as hard as the usual stuff I listen to but still enjoyable. Check 'em out.


Joel Zimmerman a.k.a. Deadmau5 is one of the most amazing DJs/producers/musicians I have had the pleasure to see and everything he touches turns into electro-house gold. If you have a chance I would highly recommend seeing him. Life changing.

Italian Benny Bennasi is a electronic music godfather and has been pumping out electro house magic for years. I've seen him once and wasn't disappointed, and I'm excited to see how his set is going to be.

Tiesto IS techno. More people know him than the genre itself and this trance GOD doesn't need much introduction or explanation. I'm going to be there for sure.
David Guetta is a little bit more pop and dance than I really like in my electronic music but he still gets the girls moving and that's always a positive in my book. Peep his ish.
Kaskade is the epitome of house music and both times I have seen him he has been amazing. Some of the best live mixing I have heard and you can't help but dance when he gets on stage.
Electronic music legend Soulwax, has a side DJ group, 2manydjs, which is just two of the members of Soulwax who do live sets and remixes. Soulwax is awesome, thus 2manydjs is awesome. Can't wait to see them live.
Dirty South is a Serbian DJ who resides in Australia and plays some great house music. See what you think of these remixes of his.
Bassnectar is wobbley awesomeness and these guys make the speakers CRUNCH. I saw him at Lollapalooza and the entire crowd was waving with the wobble he was blasting, crazy experience, can't wait for round two.

Psychadelic trance/dance group, Infected Mushroom, hails from Israel and these guys rock. Hard. Crazy sounds and truly an audio journey through electronica. Pretty stoked to see these guys for the first time.
Club 75 is a DJ supergroup. Ed Banger label DJs, Justice, Busy P [Justice's manager] & DJ Medhi + Cassius = Club 75. Justice is incredible, absolutely incredible and I'm excited to see the other DJs and which songs these choose to play and how they interact on stage.
The Glitch Mob is 4 dudes on tables and comps spinning some nasty ass tunes and remixes. Their experimental style combines underground hip hop elements with an aggressive electro sound. These remixes are especially dank.
This British bastid named Rusko is probably one of my favorite DJs right now and he's blowing up on the scene. With his supersonic womp and face melting wobble, Rusko is blazing his shows with a relentless bass assault and I can't wait to have my spine broke and neck snapped during this wobblefest.
