Cazals


Don't mind me as I switch fonts and colors. Sometimes the page needs a little "oomph", whatever that may be. Or I could NOT lie and tell you that I'm bored out of my mind at work and needed to occupy my time with something constructive. Such as...checking out the blog roll. The song I'm putting up today is a Moulinex remix, the [Portuguese] artist who did that great Cut Copy "Lights and Music" remix a while back. I think this remix is even better. Too bad he's out touring the European countries instead of the US this summer.

Hifi



New Hifi track to share, an edit of Sebastian Tellier's "Kilometer Low" off his Sexual Sportswear album. Now don't confuse Sebastian Tellier with the ever popular Ed Banger SebastiAn, who is quite different. Tellier has been around a whole lot longer and has several different musical styles displayed on a multitude of albumns. Hifi's taken the beat of "Kilometer Low" and sped it up with his own drum beat, in turn making it bangin' and dance-a-ble for the clubs. Definitely worth a spot on your iTunes.

all the girls standing in the line for the bathroom...

I guess the popo's were supposed to come to campus and arrest people who have been downloading music. Like, put them in handcuff's and shit. I personally didn't see a thing but thought the whole concept was quite hillarious. Now, on to the music downloading...


Found this great EP from Herve off of neon skyline. I love the funk it brings and the smooth transitions between songs. A lot of mixes I've heard lately sound like they were made on programs that "try" to do all the work for you, and instead leave you with a crappy transition that slows one song to the other's speed. This one's pretty damn good.

This song is the full length off of the Ed Records EP that I'm sure you all just LOVE:

I really like this Justice remix by the Sunshine Brothers. Recently I've been swaying away from Justice and Daft Punk mixes because I find they are too similar to the original, leaving the listener to try and think what the hell is different about the remix. But this one you will recognize by the lyrics but find the bass beat quite different. Enjoy.

This is from a recent fav-blog of mine, curb crawlers. I like the lyrics, I like the bass beat, and I like the piano riff. Pretty good to say the least, douster is definitely somebody to look out for in the near future.

A Brooklyn Summer Story


DJ Never Forget has sent me this awesome Summer mix titled "Strangers into Friends: A Brooklyn Summer Story." He says it was created as an ode to his friends that he gets to come in contact with over the summer and those he hasn't met yet. Definitely what I keep in mind when I create the same mixes for my Summer road trips. It has some of my favorite semi-recent songs as well, definitely worth a listen.

remix the remix of the remix's remix.

I don't know what's been put in the water lately, but it seems like there are a billion remix contests going on. There's the "remix the original," "remix the remix" and "remix the remix somebody made of your remix." It gets a little confusing and I find it all quite over-rated. But I do believe that people who like to remix songs should do so, and then send them to me! I found this song off of 24 hours and I like it, but it needs "something." I don't know what that something is, and I myself am not a remix-er. So listen, download, get creative or not, either way it's still a pretty good song. If you read this blog on a somewhat frequent basis, send me an email at electroniccrack@gmail.com and let me know what you think about this music I post on here. I'd like to hear from the listeners, since I am one myself.

ready for the weekend



You might remember this post a while ago that introduced Casxio. It's not something I would normally post, but it's quite hip, I can feel it. They just released a four-song EP, featuring their hit "Seventeen." You can catch them April 22 in Vegas at the Beatles Revolution Lounge.

This one drops from fluo kids:

Somewhat disco-housy, the group Ice Cream hails from Berlin. This first one's on the verge of being progressive, but it isn't quite as fast or driving. The second one has some sweet guitar riffs, but I really like the back beat behind it all.

Ice Cream - Rockerz

Ice Cream - On My Mind

I really like how sometimes you just run across a song and it grabs you in. It happens to you too, you know it. And right now I'm talking about The Whip. But the song I'm putting down is a remix by Crystal Castles, who I'm sure some of you have heard of. Definitely worth the download.

Now for something completely different, you gotta check out DJ Vajra. Some great scratchin' skills in this preview. If you like what you hear you can check out his myspace for some previous mixes.
