Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino is an amazing lyricist. Not only that, but he tends to DJ his own tracks. Needless to say he is a multifaceted individual. Also, he has been featured here on Crossfaded plenty of times, most recently on our Welcome Back post. Off his newest mixtape “Camp” he drops Heartbeat and this song has such a soft intro that drops into heavy electro segments that make this song a juggernaut. He incorporates fast paced rapping over a sick melody. It is amazing how he can convey such great arrogance over his tracks. I find it to be such an interesting take on the rap genre. Also, the video is sick as hell and is worth a view.

Childish Gambino – Heartbeat

Buy Childish Gambino’s mixtape Camp on iTunes.

Next up is the Proper Villains remix of Heartbeat brings forth a gnarly dubstep remix and it hits hard. It is a good mix of hard melodic dubstep and constant wobbles. This song can be enjoyed both driving around and at a dance party. With that sort of versatility it is obvious that Proper Villains has been refining his view on how dubstep should be produced. It is working because this song bangs. Proper Villains has amazing star quality so be sure to check out his Facebook and Soundcloud. Now listen.

Last but certainly not least is the remix done by The Golden Pony. A relatively unknown artist who has some amazing potential. With his version of Heartbeat he gives the song a complete makeover and makes it into a great dance/pop song that will make any crowd go wild. It is fast paced happy-go-lucky take on this song. It has very fun synths and nice transitions that will keep you guessing. The Golden Pony delivers big time with this remix, so, give him some love on his Facebook and Soundcloud.

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 🙂

To start your Thirsty Thursday off the correct way, I bring you a remix of the classic, Eiffel 65’s “I’m Blue.” Mister Perfect, who is a still relatively unknown, drops a fantastic remix of one of the biggest hits of the 90’s. I’m sure if you heard the original you would want to run into a pencil because it is honestly annoying. But this remix is epic and should bring back memories of how awesome the 90’s were and will make you want to party. So please enjoy.

These songs will allow you to go hard in the paint. Singularity has been cranking out some hott remixes, especially this one of Martin Solveig’s classic tune Hello. I also added an amazing track from Pretty Ligths called Stay. I like both of these songs for their complexity and unique flavors.
