Kendall's Favorite Songs of 2008 : Part 3

Ugh! I’m trying not to get another one of my Favorite Songs of 2008 posts stricken down by the nefarious DMCA, so I have begun to speak in code. Discodust found out that whenever a certain artist’s tracks were upped on the interwebs, the associated post is almost always deleted by the DMCA Bandits. The machines have taken over, we have been forced underground. So don’t be confused by that certain artist’s name, I’m sure you can figure it out.

On the post taken down yesterday, I lamented the fact that I forgot to include Everyone’s Got To Make A Living by Dances With White Girls on my favorites of ’08 list. Ask my roommate, this song ruled my life for about four days and annoyed the shit out of him. I won’t go back and amend the list but it would not be fair unless I posted Everyone’s Got To Make A Living here and here. Enjoy the rest of the best below.

Dizzee Rascal Pussyhole Remixes

Three posts in quick succession was definitely not the way to go,I should have mashed this and the previous two posts all into one big post. Guess I was felt a little sparky or something when I started this an hour ago.

When I began my journey five hours ago, I thought Schlachthofbronx, the ghettotech/bass group from Germany, sent me a re-edit they did of the Radioclit remix of Dizzee Rascal's 2007 track Pussyhole. Since SSDT strives to meet the highest journalistic standards and practices, I had to get a concrete answer as to who was behind this remix. So after an extensive seven minute search to find the true remixers of Pussyhole (I'm typing "Pussyhole" at least three more times), I couldn't even find the alleged Radioclit Pussyhole remix.

So what I'm gonna do is post this track with a big thanks to Schlachthofbronx for sending me this fire and I'll give the remix credit to Radioclit. No worries the internet is good for clearing up these kind of misstakes, you see how quickly it dismantled all those Justice fakes.

ABX - Strangerole (Windskool) (Dizzee Rascal x Cut Copy) [YSI]

* Update: I told yall the internet always works these mistakes out, even the ones that it helps create. Jakob from Schlachthofbronx just sent me an email stating that the above Pussyhole remix I previously credited to Radioclit is actually a Schlachthofbronx remix that uses a sample from the Radioclit remix of Cobrastyle. I think the remix on top of another remix was too much for my mind to handle. Anyway, sorry for the mistake Schlachthofbronx, you guys rock.

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.

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.
