Old School Mix

Girl Talk dropped his new album "All Day" the other day... I probably won't be posting any of that. Worth mentioning though, he took almost two years to finish it, and it's a semi-dope album if you're into hyperdrive mash ups. (You can DL it here.)

However, today I'm chosing to post about a couple of mixes that came out a few years ago. I stumbled back into one of my first favorite mixes a few days ago, and got caught up in a nastalgic playlist that I used to run a while back. Their mostly old school songs that have been vamped up for todays crowd, but are easy to dive into. I'm kickin it off with my personal favorite mix, the Soulwax mix of "You can't always get what you want." Just let it roll.

This next track came out about a year ago. It's a Twelves mix of the 80's hit Take on me. Not quite as catchy as the original, but nice and upiddy for todays music.

This is just straight fun. The Police's "Roxanne" mixed by Discotech. Jump up and get down:

I wish I could take off all the little comments on this one, but it's the only DL-able one I could find. It's a little crazy for those not keen to dub, but it's mix of serene vibes and crazy beats makes me love it. It's a Good Vibrations mix by the Stanton Warriors. Dig it

Again, I wish I could take the comments off, but I can't. (You can if you just click the little talk bubble in the bottom right corner). This is a smooth Fugee's "Ready or Not" dub remic by Cillo. Sexy, fun, and real. Perfect.

God damn: what a weekend. Bassnectar was an absolute party, as he always is. But blended with a healthy mix of great people and a beautiful city, he was near leathal. With an ungodly setlist and a bumpin' venue (electric factory), it was some of the most fun I've had all semester. Thanks Philly for showing this CT kid a good time, you all know who you are.
I gotta unleash the dub in this post, so those who aren't friendly with explosive beats, watch out.

I'll start off easy: Lorin Ashton unleashed this in the middle of the set, although he clearly improvised it to fit the electric factory. Awesome song, it's a Fever Ray mix that always puts a smile on. Careful though, this a' rocket launcher right here:

I also gotta throw this next one into the mixer. I have to say, Beats Antique killed it. Almost unseen heros of the show on Friday. Here's a mix that Bassnectar created when he did some work with Beat's Antique (I think 2008?). Love it, just a circus of a track:

Alright, here's where it gets a little crazy. This one got thrown down a little before half way through the set. It was a shit show of a song. Ashton whomped it the fuck out. My personal favorite song of the set.

Zeds Dead & Omar LinX - Out For Blood by omarlinx

Just to break it up a bit, so I'm not completly fixed on the show from Friday, I'm gona toss one of my more recent favorites out there. This is a Jamrock Dubstep mix by Savoy. Get wild with it.

Welcome to Jamrock (Savoy Remix)- Damian Marley by Chicofuentz

To close it out, I'm gona put down a Diplo mix. Beautiful song, Four Floors by sunday girl. Dive inside and swim around in it.

Thanks again to everyone who was there in Philly. We gotta do that again sometime soon.

Lazy Sundays

Thank God for Sundays. The one day of the week where all the bullshit of recent history can be thrown aside, and for 6-7 hours of NFL football I can do nothing and feel good about it. Today I can tune into football, listen to the recent hypem charts, and forget about the weeks problems.

Todays picks are scattered, flowing from goofy alternative songs to beatiful mixes.I'm gona start with the goofy, and roll out Tiger Love's recent chart hit. laugh at it, it's pretty rediculous.

I couldn't get an embeded code for this next song, but it's fuckin awesome. A fresh mix of an old school favorite, Hot Chip remixed Passin' Me By by the Pharcyde. Definitely click this link and check it out. It's such a sexy and almost intimate remix,  it puts a different spin on the goofy original.


Again I couldn't get an embeded code for this, but it's quintissential Pretty Lights. Love this jam, eat it up and savor the flavor. Looking for Love

Finally, with Bassnectar commin up in 2 weeks, I'm gona lay down one of Lorin Ashton's bigger hits. This song just doesn't seem to lose it's taste.

Enjoy your Sunday. I know I will.

Monday



I'm pretty sure the red dot isn't to scale...

 It's been a great couple of weeks. the past couple weekends have been filled with seeing family and hometown times. And with the long hibernation of winter looming over the horizon, my writing has been absent, but there's still been plenty of good music flowin. With the Utica phish show commin up, and the possibility of seeing more of the home boys on wednesday, I've decided to post a quick bit on songs that bring it back home. there's no underlying theme today, just an overall post of personal favorites.

I'll kick it off with a song that deserves some love now. Easton's very own Austin Eterno broke into the hypem top 5 today, and settled in at #2 with his "I remember shelter" mix. A Fantastically serene mix, the song melts over like a popsicle in july.

I Remember Shelter (The xx vs. Deadmau5 & Kaskade) by Austin Eterno

Not to be too obvious with the home theme, but it's just too catchy not to put on here. Anyone who's been watchin the games on Sunday with have heard Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros song "Home," which is all over the tailgaiting NFL commercial (you can listen to it here). To keep it upbeat though, I'm gona put the Myndset mix down. Fun and versitile.

Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros - Home (Myndset Remix) by MYNDSET

One of my all time favorites. Shoutout to those who got to here it with me at Bisco. This one will never grow old.

LCD Soundsystem - All My Friends by thedopestopdotcom

On that Bisco note, this one's for Newman. You fucker.

I'll finish this off here with "Furr." should be able to speak for itself.

Blitzen Trapper - Furr by subpop

Colgate playlist should be soon to come. Many more songs I wouldve loved to put up, but it'll just slow down the uploads.

Sorry, I'm a sloth

Lack of posting lately, I've been busy with work and exams. Lemaitre just released a new track. It's pretty dope, as expected. enjoy:
