DJ Medhi - Pocket Piano (Chewy Chocolate Cookies Remix)


Awhile back I did a "Masters Of The Remix" post about the Brazilian group The Twelves. I never thought of MOTR as a potential recurring theme until I heard this new Pocket Piano remix from Chewy Chocolate Cookies (who will now be referred to as "CCC"). This now makes about 10 dope remixes from CCC on my computer, stay tuned because I will definitely be throwing together a MOTR post about CCC in the coming days.

DJ Mehdi's original Pocket Piano had the potential to be one of the few dope tracks on the lackluster Ed Rec Vol. 3, but the light piano and guitar instrumentation left too much to be inferred. The bass that emerges about halfway through the song should have hit harder. I mean, it's Ed Banger Records not Ed Adult Contemporary Records, am I right guys? Don't worry though, CCC took care of that by adding some banging bass that continues throughout the track while keeping the chord progression that made the original track so great. Anyway, enough from me, download this new CCC remix cause if I'm up at 10:30 on a Saturday morning, hung-over after much drinking last night, doing a post about it, you damn sure better at least listen to it on zshare. Holla!

Yeah, I've Been Drinking Again

The epitome of cool? I think so. (via LNP)

I'm a firm believer in the saying, "It's never too late for a good remix." So, in the spirit of that belief, I give to you a remix of Timbaland's The Way I Are by newcomer Sarcastic Fetus.

Timbaland - The Way I Are (Sarcastic Fetus Remix) [YSI]

If there was a competition for greatest song ever, I would seriously vote for Music Sounds Better With You by Stardust. I can't pinpoint exactly why this song commands so much of my adoration but it is the balls for sure. Here is a Miami Horror remix that falls in the same category as the above track.

Stardust - Music Sounds Better With You (Miami Horror Remix) [YSI]

I know I already posted this track awhile ago, but this here is the real version. This song is so good, after I heard it I was ashamed for me and the all the rest of the bloggers that posted the crappy radio rip. The real version is righteous.

MGMT - Electric Feel (Justice Remix) [YSI]

I just like this song, not much else to say except go visit Terry Poison's myspace, then swing by Aston Shuffle's myspace.

New Wale "Artistic Integrity" Video



Here is the new video for Wale's Artistic Integrity off his recent mixtape, The Mixtape About Nothing. There is nothing special about the video, I just want to call some attention to a righteous mixtape I forgot to blog about a couple weeks back. You can pick up The Mixtape About Nothing here.

A-Trak - Running Man


You know why I like Kidz By Colette, cause they just don't give a flip (I know, "flip" is lame but there may be children reading this post). I have a feeling that Running Man, the new Nike workout album mixed by A-Trak, is not supposed to be spread across the blogosphere the day of its release, but they did it anyway. Thanks guys. And all the peeps who are downloading this from here, you're welcome.

A-Trak - Running Man [YSI] *

*Removed due to my own growing feeling of bloggers' guilt. Here, have the free single from the album instead.

Hatchmatik and DJ Excel Remix Your Morning

* Did I forget to mention MtO is also a graphic desinger? This is one of his creations.

Hatchmatik has remixed Bring It On Now, the new single by MtO released on Coco Machete, and of course it's super hype. I really should have more to say but I didn't get around to reading the promo kit Coco Machete was nice enough to send. So make sure you visit their official website and myspace to hear more music and get more info on their artists.





In the past month, I've started listening to more music with obvious hip hop influences, so when I got this DJ Excel remix this morining I was pretty excited. Anyone who has heard the original Flipside already knows that Just Blaze killed this beat, then you have DJ Excel remix it, Flipside will incite dancefloor pandemonium. Somebody throw some water on this post.



* Can you believe this post took 3 rewrites? I know, I'm an idiot.

Little Boots & Portmanteau

Before I heap praise onto Portmanteau for their cool electro tracks, I must admit I felt a sizable level of apprehension about initially giving their tracks a listen. First off, the name Portmanteau. Calm down guys, we didn’t all go to Ivy League schools here. I like my electro groups to have monosyllabic, at most disyllabic names. Daft Punk, Justice, Danger. See what I mean, easy. I can’t even pronounce the last part of their name, let alone spell it. Once I overcame the confusion their name caused, I began reading the email and found this, “Portmanteau combines live instrumentation, children's instruments, synthesisers, samplers, visuals, and their owl known only as "the Colonel".” I think the presence of any animal in a track (especially one ironically named “the Colonel”) is enough to make any electro fan stop and think for a second. I don’t claim to speak for all electro fans but I’m sure most would agree that we don’t want “experimental” music, we want bangers made for maximum dancefloor grinding. The Looks not Pet Sounds.

However, it didn’t take long for my love of new music to quell my rising apprehension and I downloaded the tracks anyway. And what can I say, they are good. I didn’t even hear an owl in any of the tracks, but I did hear the rest of the good stuff mentioned in their email. My two favorite tracks, Thouse and Defibrilator, are included below. Check out more tracks here.

Portmanteau – Thouse [YSI]
Portmanteau - Defibrilator [YSI]

*No animals were hurt during the making of these songs (not sure if this is true, but I don’t want PETA on my ass).




My anchor for today is the new Little Boots track, Meddle. Meddle is another anchor track that I’m not being totally cynical about. I became an instant fan of Dead Disco (which Little Boots was a member of) after I downloaded their self-titled EP and the numerous remixes of their work. So when I heard Dead Disco was actually dead, of course I was like, “WTF?” Then, I heard Little Boots was gonna keep up the good fight and release more music on her own and I was like, “YES!” Stuck on Repeat, Little Boots’ first release was pretty dope and Meddle is also dope. So there you go, this is not simply a shameless attempt at more blog hits.

Little Boots - Meddle [YSI] *Removed upon label's request.

Girl Talk, Lap Dance Love Affair, and Fukkk Offf


I don't feel like typing much today, so I'm keeping this post short and sweet.

I was led to Fukkk Offf in a roundabout way by first hearing the club edit of the Monosurround track, Cocked Locked Ready To Rock. I visited MSRD's myspace and found out that Fukkk Offf did a remix for CLRtR, so I visited FO's myspace page and there I found the remix and some more gems. I typed all that to explain this pairing, which without an explantion would seem quite arbitrary. Check out more Fukkk Offf here.*

Monosurround - Cocked, Locked, Ready To Rock (Club Edit) [YSI]
Fukkk Offf - Rock Paper Scissors [YSI]

Lap Dance Love Affair have not gotten a lot of blog exposure yet, but I'm sure that will change soon. Here are two of the five cool tracks they have on their myspace page.

Lap Dance Love Affair - Boozer [YSI]
Lap Dance Love Affair - Utopia [YSI]

My anchor today is a random track off the new Girl Talk album, Feed The Animals. I really didn't know this dude was that popular but, since the release of his new album on Thursday, he has ruled the top stop on Hype Machine's "Top Blogged Artist" and "Most Searched" lists . Below, enjoy a track you probably already have.

Girl Talk - Don't Stop [YSI]

*Update: In my rush to finish this post and go to sleep last night, I forgot to mention Fukkk Offf's label Coco Machete. Thanks to Sean and the rest of the cool people over at Coco Machete for not getting pissed about me posting Rock Paper Scissors. Why can't everyone be that nice (Yeah I'm talking to you, Tobias)? Check out more tracks from Coco Machete artists here.

OMG!!!! NFW!!!!! Glass Candy in Houston


OMG!!!! NFW!!!!! Imagine the highest, shrillest, gayest scream streaming out of my mouth and you will still only experience half of the shock my office mate is coping with right now. Why am I whipped into this frenzied state of hysteria? Because Glass Candy is performing in Houston tomorrow night and everyone must know about this. Yes, THE Glass Candy, will be at the Museum of Fine Arts trying their best to make the statues dance tomorrow night. Damn, I’m excited.

Ticket Prices:
Free if you are a MFAH member
$10 with a school ID
$15 General Admission

Glass Candy starts performing at 10PM. I missed them the last time they came to Houston because I was stupid and I don’t want this to happen to any of my fellow Houstonians. Complete info here.

Romulus & Remus


I do a couple of posts about new talent coming out of Australia and now 75% of my emails come from Aussies. I think I hear New Zealand getting jealous. I’m not complaining though, as long as all of the emails contain tracks that sound as good as this one from Romulus and Remus (somebody has been reading up on their Roman history).

Here is an excerpt from their email, “its like KillTheNoise/MSTRKRFT/The 12's/GRUM/LeCastleVania all chopped up, fried, mixed with eggs and pepper and made into a spicy electic omlette.” I’m not sure about this talk of cannibalistic electric omelettes but RAR is definitely cool. Check out the track below and someone start a search to make sure Kill The Noise, MSTRKRFT, The Twelves, etc. are still alive.

Romulus & Remus - RAR [YSI]

Lillica Libertine wants everyone to hear his B-side, Love Affair, off his new Glastique EP. If the B-sides sound this good, I can’t wait til the EP comes out.

Lil' Wayne Video Blog: Day One



I'm posting this not to commemorate the first in a long line of Weezy video blogs updated daily with his thoughts on everything from book drives to African American activists, no I'm posting this to start a countdown til he gives this up. Really, how long will he be able to focus himself for the two minutes necessary to string together the non sequiters that flow from his drug ridden brain? I love the guy, but is this video weed/lean induced brilliance or another example of your brain on drugs? Either way it’s funny as hell. My guess is he will put out 2-3 more videos.

Anchors Away!!!!

Despite what the “experts” predicted, I survived my harrowing wisdom teeth removal procedure yesterday, however my face wasn’t as lucky. I look like Kanye West in his Through The Wire video. I won’t be picking up any girls until this swelling goes down cause no matter how great your sense of humor is chicks just don’t dig the Elephant Man.

Alright, I admit I don't look nearly as bad as these two guys. FREAKS!!!!!


Besides suffering from unwarranted body image issues the past two days, I realized I need to start using anchors on my post. My definition of an anchor is that track that comes along every 2 or 3 days that every blog with a functioning internet connection posts within seconds of discovery. Today, it’s the new Clipse track, a couple of days ago it was the new Diplo remix, a few days before that it was the Pharrell/Santogold/that guy from The Strokes song…..you get the idea. Well, since the blog business is about exposure for the artists and the bloggers themselves, I’ve decided to include an anchor on each of my posts for that extra hypem/elbo.ws traffic. This will satisfy both the objectives of the mp3 blog. Today’s anchor will be the aforementioned Clipse track, Fast Life.

Clipse - Fast Life [YSI]

I had to go through all the hard work that signing in to my email entails to discover these two cool tracks from Polygon Palace. The first track is a nice remix of Hearts On Fire by Cut Copy. I think HOF remixes are impossible to mess up, the original track is just too solid. Not sure what the Unterhaag means, but their second track Disko Unterhaag is cool Calvin Harris-esque electrofunk. Pick up the tracks below and go visit their space to listen to more goodness.

Cut Copy - Hearts On Fire (Polygon Palace Remix) [YSI]

Polygon Palace - Disko Unterhaag [YSI]

I’m gonna apologize now to Culture Of Me cause I’m stealing this track. While I post a lot of electro bangers and b-more club music, I still think you can’t beat a solid remix of an electronic dance rock track. I guess since they use real drums, guitars, keytars and such, it sounds more real. Or I could be completely wrong, maybe instruments will go the way of the vinyl in the next 5 years. Who knows? I know I love this Sta remix of These Electric Lives though. Enjoy.

The Electric Lives - We Should Be Believing (Sta Remix) [YSI]

Unrelated question: While downloading a track off zshare, I saw a banner ad for a “free” ringtone download of the Katy Perry single I Kissed A Girl. This especially caught my attention since I posted this track not too long ago. My question is when did Katy Perry become mainstream pop with the same name recognition as Chris Brown or T-Pain? This is not good for the blog rep at all.

B-More......... By Way Of Montreal

I haven’t posted any b-more in about 3 days and I’m starting to get antsy. Here are four banging tracks that would really appreciate it if you told everyone they are from Baltimore even though we know they are not.

Wiz Khalifa - Say Yeah (Bobby LaBeat Remix) [YSI]
Busta Rhymes - Touch It (TMNS Edit) [YSI]
Alexander O' Neal & Cherelle - Saturday Love (TMNS Edit) [YSI]

New Breakbot and Torso X


Torso X is a fresh act out of the UK that has been getting some DJ love (the most special kind of love) from Punks Jump Up, Looses Cannons, and Jaymo and in the last couple of weeks. The track posted below has already been played twice by Loose Cannon and included in Jaymo's newest NLLR mix. Get it while its hot below.

Torso X - Crystal Ball [YSI]

New track from Breakbot. I really don't know how to explain his music other than its distinctively French. His music is so French that, if somebody played this song to me at 4 in the morning while I'm sleep, I'd wake up and say "That song was made by a Frenchman. And I would love some pancakes."

Breakbot - Iron Zombie [YSI]

This post was written under the influence of alcohol. Kids, please don't drink and post. It's not good for your health.

Five For Friday


I received the new Soda & Suds track, Zapatista, at 2am this morning (Houston time). Included with this banging track was this oh so sweet message that states "We send it to you guys exclusive, cuz we like your blog, hope you guys like it". Now, I'm not a psychic, but I don't think I'm the only person that received this email. I think the fact that they used the phrase "you guys" at least 5 times throughout the email tipped me off. Exclusive or not, my feelings are not hurt, the track is dope. As they also state in the email, "Its kind of boys noize shit". Thanks for the track guys and you can tell me the truth next time, I'm a big boy.

Soda & Suds - Zapatista [YSI]


I've discovered another fresh act out of Australia. He goes by the moniker Magic Happens and he makes some pretty cool electrofunk. His track Cold Start drove me crazy trying to think of what sample he used (you gotta figure it out yourself). Check out that track and his Kid Cudi remix below.

Magic Happens - Cold Start [YSI]
Kid Cudi - Day N' Night (Magic Happens Remix) [YSI]


By now French DJ, producer, and graphic artist, Danger, needs no introduction or extra hyping to get people to listen and download his tracks, so I won't even try. What I will say is that his new track, 00h00, features the Chicago rapper Vyle. Don't fear however, 00h00 is not Bounce, it does not contain cliched lyrics about partying or girls going "south" (NORE really killed that track, and not in a good way). Danger keeps his signature sound while incorporating Vyle's vocals and produces another dope track.

Danger - 00h00 ft. Vyle [YSI]


And finally, I have a remix by the man that will keep the party going tonight at Boondocks for Don't Fight It. All your favorite electro, indie, remixes will be played by Dave Wrangler and the bartenders will $2 dollar Lone Stars all night. Choose your own attraction.

More Rolf Honey



Just because I liked that last Rolf Honey remix so damn much, I'm throwing in this remix they did for the Alizee track, Fifty Sixty. These guys don't have many remixes on their myspace page, so I'm guessing they really love French female pop singers. Cool remix and I'm posting the video for the remix too. The video isn't as cool, but I need something to go on the top of the post, I couldn't find a picture or logo of the group on their myspace page or with a Google image search. This makes four videos posted in one day. It's gonna take about 10 minutes for this page to load now.

Alizee - Fifty Sixty (Rolf Honey Remix) [YSI]

New Yelle Video Just Like Old Yelle Video



This new Reebok "commercial" featuring the Rolf Honey remix of Tristsee/Joie reminds me a lot of the video for the TEPR remix of A Cause des Garçons. I'm not even gonna lie, the second this video was over I went on a 15 minute hunt to find those yellow Reeboks that dude is wearing near the end of the video. As you can see from this website, they are sold out. Damn sneaker snatching Japanese*. Compare and contrast the two videos yourself.



* I love you Japan. You can snatch my sneakers anyday.

It’s That Beat (Lapse Remix)


Here is a nice remix of the Playdoe track It’s the Beat. If I’m not mistaken, SSDT was the first to throw this song in the blogosphere when I posted the Toxic Avenger remix last month. Yep, we were the first.

New Hollywood Holt Video, Bobmo Track



I never understood why, but a couple of years ago mainstream music listeners were told to believe Houston was some kind of renaissance hip-hop town. The nation was enthralled with the sample-heavy hooks, talks of purple stuff/lean, and screwed and chopped albums. There was Slim Thug, Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Chamillionaire and others I can’t remember because of their overwhelming mediocrity. I’m not “hatin” or anything, I respect these rappers “grind” and I love the way they “repped” Houston but I was not too excited about their MTV-fueled movement. MTV needed a new trend after Crunk fell to the wayside and Hyphy failed to make it out of the Bay, so they dubbed 2005, "The Year of the Screw". While the country rushed to buy grills and sit sidewayz in there newly aquired slab, they were slow to realize that none of these artists made innovative music or possesed much lyrical skill. They simply made what I like to call "suburban hood music", not too misogynistic, not too many references to sex, and not too much talk of doing or selling drugs. If Goldie Locks had to pick between three rap albums she would probably pick Paul Wall’s The People's Champ. The nation’s interest didn’t last too long (predictably), and now Mike Jones never has to worry about the hoes being all on him anymore.

I have a feeling he could chew through a car door.


Now that I’m through stabbing my own city in the back, I want to know where is the MTV special for the Chicago area. I’m not even talking about Kanye and Common. Where is the special for the Cool Kids, Hollywood Holt, Million $ Mano, and Kid Sister, etc. Chicago has been on fire for the last two years and it seems like mainstreamers are clueless as a bunch of squirrels wrapped in tin foil. Maybe there are no more MTV/mass media movements; maybe all movements take place online now. If this is the case, Chicago has received its fair share of hype on the Cool Kids alone. Anyway, all that was to introduce this new video for the track Hollywood from Hollywood Holt.

Hollywood Holt - Hollywood [YSI]

This track by Bobmo was included in a mix put out on Arcade Mode earlier this year. I couldn’t find this track anywhere online so I thought I would throw it out here and see if it sticks.

Bobmo - Turn On Cop Out [YSI]

Update: So, the internet goblins stole the HH video from youtube right when I'm trying to do a post. You can still see it here.

Long time comin


Sorry for the long time since my last post... well you probably haven't even noticed since my good mate here has been picking up the slack with some great posts. Anyway I thought i'd better redeem myself with a couple of tracks which are pretty much essential to have at the moment.

The Crookers, as you will undoubtedly be aware of have remixed Busy P's "To Protect and Entertain" and is due to come out any time now on the "Pedrophilia" EP. For now you'll have to be content with this great set rip I found which is sooo much better than the Myspace teaser rip that has been circulating. By the way, this track is fecking tits!


Next is an upcoming producer who has been causing a stir lately. His name is Duke Dumont and he makes bangers, but don't pass this dude off as just some-other remixer/producer person, his beats are Scribe-like f.r.e.s.h. This track in particular is causing shockwaves, appearing in sets by the likes of Erol Alkan. Also make sure you check out his remix of "Two Doors Down" by Mystery Jets - its a pure gold.


The Proxy are another group who, like Duke Dumont, are solidifying themselves as legit players in the industry. Their tracks "Dancing in the Dark", "40 seconds", and this track here - "Raven" are appearing in sets and blogs all over the place and for good reason too -- they are absolute grinders that make you wanna fight and party at the same time, what a combo!


Whats with the picture you ask? Well it's pretty much what i've been trying to do lately... you know it's hard to get through your HSC when its the year you get to do everything you've ever wanted to do!
Until next time...

Neon Nites, Dizzee Rascal


This part about Neon Nites will only pertain to about 0.07% of the people who visit this blog but I'm doing it anyway. Felix Cartal at the Backroom tonight. Come out for some good music and a chance to get groped by yours truly (that means ME*). Tonight promises to be one of the best shows in the Houston area this summer, don't miss it.

Dizzee Rascal released his new video for Dance Wiv Me a couple of days ago. Dizzee Rascal is cool and all, but I guess my dumb American mind can't decipher his thick British?, Cockney?, African-English? accent so I usually take a pass on downloading everything he releases. But yesterday I took enough time to read another blog's post about his new track and discovered it was produced by and featured my brother-from-another-mother Calvin Harris*. Dance Wiv Me now has me seal of approval.

Dizzee Rascal - Dance Wiv Me ft. Calvin Harris [YSI]

The moral of this story is if you're in the Houston area, come to the Backroom tonight. I need more women to sexually harrass while I'm drunk. They all can't call the police right?* Check my tag or Felix Cartal's myspace for a little taste of his stuff if you've never heard him before. If you're not in the Houston area download the Dizzee track, it's a winner.

* Calvin Harris is not my "brother-from-another-mother".
* I am not a sexual offender.

Hearts On Fire Remixed




I just downloaded this new Hearts on Fire remix by Holy Ghost! today. In standard DFA fashion, Holy Ghost took a five minute song and stretched it into an eight minute exercise in tight basslines and sharp percussions. Truthfully, I don't even know if the last 3 minutes are part of the original Hearts On Fire. My advice, don't worry about it, just go along for the ride.

British master of electro-funk, Calvin Harris, remixed Hearts On Fire also; I think the track was released last week. I had to listen to it about 5 times before I conceded to its greatness. This may seem bias and that's because it is, in my mind Calvin Harris can do no wrong. Any Calvin Harris fans (better be all of you) will fell right at home with this remix.

Plus I'm posting the original because I'm still not fully convinced either remix is better than the original. Cut Copy ftw.

Bamboo Banga Mix - DJ Tameil & Tim Dolla


Dj Tameil and DJ Tim Dolla of the Brick Bandits crew have collaborated to put together the Bamboo Banga mix cd. One look at the tracklisting and you already know this mix is hot. I'm not even gonna try to hype it up, the fact that I was willing to retype the whole tracklisting should be enough proof of the unerring ability of this mix to make you shake dat ass. I hate superfluous typing but it's kinda hard to read the tracklisting in the above picture. You're welcome in advance. Enjoy.
DJ Tameil & Tim Dolla - Bamboo Banga Mix [sendspace]
Tracklisting:
  1. Tim Dolla - Bamboo Banga
  2. DJ Sega - Be
  3. Kud Cudi - Day 'n' Nite ft. Crookers
  4. Justice - We Are Your Friends ft. Scottie B & King Tutt
  5. Tim Dolla - Let's Bang
  6. DJ Tameil - Bump Like This
  7. Claude Von Stroke - Jam On It
  8. Crookers - Big Money Comin'
  9. DJ Laz - Move, Shake, Pop ft. Pitbull & Flo-Rida
  10. DJ Tameil - Fuck Em' Up (Fight)
  11. KW Griff - Get Pumped
  12. Rye Rye - Wassup Wassup
  13. Rye Rye - Wassup Wassup (Crookers Remix)
  14. Majik Johnson & Claude Von Stroke - Scanning For Viruses

  19. Tim Dolla - Let The Music Play
  20. DJ Booman - Love The Way

Bonus: I'm posting the Crookers track Big Money Comin' that's included in the mix. YCCMP was the only blog on hype machine that has posted the track and that is a serious crime against the internets in my opinion. The song is dope.

Crookers - Big Money Comin' [YSI]

Extra Bonus: Damn, this started as a simple one-mix-and-one-track post but then I discovered these two tracks that I have too post. The first is a remix of the Lil' Wayne track A Milli, in my opinion one of the four or five good tracks on Tha Carter III. The original A Milli already has a dope beat, all DJ Tameil does is get this track ready for the dancefloors of Baltimore. The second track is a remix of So Hood by Kazey. Since Kazey is French, I guess I need to retract my previous sentence about the dancefloors of Baltimore. Bmore is officially worldwide (like my proclamation means anything).

My Name Is Ricky Blaaaazzzeeeeee!!!


Damn, what the hell is wrong with me?! How did I let Ricky Blaze fly over my head, under the radar, whichever phrase that means I totally missed out on some hot shit? Ricky Blaze is a producer coming out of Brooklyn slammin crowds with electronic/dancehall beats that will make you sweat just from listening. For a dude that claims to love M.I.A. and Diplo so much, I'm pretty embarassed about never listening to any Ricky Blaze til now. To redeem myself (and probably some of you too), I'm posting three tracks and a video of my cousins dancing to some Blaze. They're not really my cousins, but I'm Black so I'm claiming them, Barack Obama, and that guy that made all that stuff with peanut butter. Not Flava Flav though, I'm not yet convinced that he is even human.

Ricky Blaze - Tek It To Dem [YSI]
Ricky Blaze - Cut Dem Off Remix ft. Tony Matterhorn & Elephant Man [YSI]

Update: I changed from the original Cut Dem Off to the remix. The remix has better sound quality.

Baby Diamonds

Scouring the internet today, I discovered a pleasant surprise on the MSTRKRFT forum. His name is Baby Diamonds and, from what I can gather from his technicolor myspace page, he is an oft-shirtless producer from San Diego that is really into the Food Network. In his spare time from drooling over food he’ll never be able to prepare himself, he creates cool tracks such as this Danger-esque remix of the Thong Song. The second track, Teenagers, is a dope track that garners extra points simply because it contains the lyrics “slut”, “dick”, “fuck”, and copious amount of sexual moans. He is going the right direction with this track, I’ve always said they need electro music that could be used in porn targeted to hipsters. It’s an untapped goldmine.

Bird Peterson & Romeo Erotic remixes


This new remix from Bird Peterson, is the perfect remedy for people with the urge to jam to both Chicago and Outkast simultaneously. For everyone else, it's simply badass song.

Bird Peterson - 25 or 6 to Blow

This Romeo Erotic remix is perfect for the 5 people that still go to roller rinks. And I mean the REAL roller rinks, the kind where everybody still skates on those old block skates, not the ninny little inline skates. Those are for girls. The track is hot though, so even you inline skaters will love it.

Eclier Remix


Not much chit-chat today. I’ve was caught blogging at work last week and I’m afraid the next time will be my last. But you don’t worry about that, just listen to this cool track by Eclier and this cool remix by Redial.

Eclier – Boxon Say Hello
