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.

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.

Secret Handshake - Summer of 98 (Crookers Remix)

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.

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.

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.

Animal Collective - Daily Routine (Phaseone Remix)

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.

Robin S. - Show Me Love (Afrojack Remix)

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.

Boys Noize - Kontact Me (John Roman Remix)

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.

Kid Cudi ft. Rat-a-Tat & MGMT - Pursuit of Happiness (Steve Aoki Remix)

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...

Royksopp - Happy Up Here (Boys Noize Remix)

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.

The XX - Shelter (Death To The Throne Remix)
