Broken Bells – October: Alternative

These guys are just getting started with their debut album Broken Bells released in 2010. But by getting started I mean producing together! This duo is made up of James Mercer of the Shins and Danger Mouse who is ½ of Gnarls Barkley and has produced with names like the Gorillaz, the Black Keys, and Beck. These two proven artists combined create a unique sound that is very refreshing and new in a world of remixes and spinoffs that we so often see popping up today. Following their debut album they released an EP Meyrin Fields so check em both out on iTunes!

Serge Devant ft. Hadley- Dice

Dice was an awesome song that I first discovered years ago (don’t laugh) while watching The O.C. The original is by Finley Quaye and William Orbit. This new version with Serge Devant ft. Hadley is awesome and really brings a cool new twist to the original song. Definitely more of a girly song…but enjoy it 🙂

Keep an eye on this kid, he could be huge one day.

Mashup Monday #25

I was a little worried about this mashup when it started going, but once Marvin came in, I was sold. This mashup has fantastic cuts and and bumpin’ beats that will make you cream your pants. TMI? I think not.

D.Veloped – Throw Some D’s On That Blink

The download is being weird so here is another just in case.

Though this mashup doesn’t have much complication and is pretty straight forward when it comes to editing, I am still extremely impressed to see that the chorus of both songs are so well laid together. It really does sound like the song was made in a studio. Very impressive.

D.Veloped – Womb Raider (Frisky & Foolish Edit)

This mashup isn’t meant to get you movin’ on the dance floor, if anything it should only get you to start bobbing your head. The greatest bit of this entire mashup has to be the guitar “singing” to us through out the song. It’s surreal in a way.

Sektr – Who You With

Fucking Remix Friday

I don’t normally post on Fridays, but you are in luck. I just have way too much music so I am passing on the greatness onto you. All these songs are posted purely because I love the original artist. Don’t get me wrong the remixers did a great job and well I guess you’ll see.

First up is a remix of Foo Fighters song ‘Everlong’ and the remix is pretty subtle, but gives it a Postal Service kind of poppy electronic vibe. It is hard to explain. See for yourself.

Next is a Killer’s classic ‘When You Were Young’ and I don’t really know what to say about it. I have just listened to it 7 times trying to put words to the awesomeness. It’s just not happening, so you be the judge, because I am at a loss here.

Lastly is a Katy Perry song. Not a big fan of her, but the remix is good plus she is so fucking hot. (Just look up.) [Damn…]
