Compression : VIII


(Mein Deutsch ist sehr, sehr, schlecht. Entschuldigung, wenn du Deutsch bist.)

One more behemoth to slay.
Noch eine Prüfung.

Can you guess what it's for?
Kannst du für was annehmen?

All the girls, catch the looks, lies, fascination, forever.
Rainstick.

New Bag Raiders! Decent, but a little too 'represent' for my liking.

Bag Raiders - All The Girls

Ahhhh, this brings me back. Indie remixed with heavy handed beats and synths. Bring this sound back kids. Now.

Dyebox - Catch The Looks (Dilemn Remix)

MMMatthias' trademark, glitched and experimental sound.

MMMatthias - Lies

NightWaves - Fascination (MMMatthias Remix)

Smooth, immaculate. I'm beginning to become enamoured with Hemingway.

Pelifics - Forever (Hemingway Remix)

Crazed, Shaman-Voodoo stuff here. For the dancefloor.

Hervé & Jack Beats - Rainstick (Hervé's Monsoon Mix)

Rarche Out! Compression too for that matter. Expect regularity soon (not too soon, kids).

Compression : VI


Hmm, another DMCA complaint. Asked around on Erol Alkan forum (of which lately I've become a junkie), and I've been advised it might be better to change my blogging ways, that is, get every track straight from the artists themselves. Obviously, it's going to take a while to build up a relationship with all these artists, but, I'll try to do it eventually. Anyway, you're probably thinking "Quitcherbitchin', where's the music?", so here it is.

So, you kids are probably overeager to here some new tracks, so I'll deliver, with some, err, Robbie Williams. Coolest kid out. But err, seriously, his new track Bodies might not be exceptional or cutting edge, but the remixers... well, are Fred Falke and Aeroplane adequate? Thought so.

Robbie Williams - Bodies (Fred Falke Club Mix)
Robbie Williams - Bodies (Aeroplane Remix)


Mars? No. Don't touch that, it's a classic. That won't stop Jack Beats from trying, and, well, he kinda pulls it off. Escalating, womping fun. Good on him.

Fake Blood - Mars (Jack Beats Remix)
Patrick Wolf - Hard Times (Jack Beats Remix)

Danger, where art thou? Apparently Danger is prowling around an Amazonian jungle, warping time to uncover more about the Code of The Pyramid. Or he's working on an album. Still haven't decided which reason I like more. Many have tried to fill in Danger's shoes, replicating his cinematic/computer game sound. But alas, none have reached his prowess. Until now. Meet Mille, a Swedish producer who may just be the new Danger (probably not, but he's pretty damn good). Check out Ghost Dancer and the Mowgli's Road remix. Wow.

Mille - Ghost Dancer
Mille - Crysteena
Marina & The Diamonds - Mowgli's Road (Mille Remix)

There has been a plethora of Night By Night remixes going around, so I'm just going to post a few. Smooth, '80s vocals, mixed with '80s synths. Sounds like it's straight from the '80s. '80s.

Chromeo - Night By Night (Redial Remix)

Chromeo - Night By Night (Siriusmo Remix)
Chromeo - Night By Night (Digikid84 Remix)

Michael Jackson is still a hot topic, mainly because of the new film about his swan song tour, This Is it. Anyway, I have a little gem here for you kids. It's an edit of Hot Street, a track that was meant to feature on the Thriller album. Apparently, Michael Jackson was quite fond of this track, but his producers/marketers thought the song just didn't quite make the cut. I think I'd have to side with MJ here, this track is brilliantly catchy.

Michael Jackson - Hot Street (U-Tern Edit)

And, here's some Screamo-Electro. What?

All Leather & The Bloody Beetroots - Mystery Meat

Bring Me The Horizon - Death Breath (The Toxic Avenger Remix)

Or some not-so-Bloody Beetroots:

Groove Armada - I Won't Kneel (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)

Rarche Out!

Hey! What? I'm In Love


I'm not a particularly big fan of Dubstep, I find the warbling, wah-wah sounds comical, and almost always a tad anti-climatic. But Foamo, well, he's another story.

Diplo & Laidback Luke - Hey! (Foamo Remix)
Jack Beats - What (Foamo Re-Edit)
Dub Pistols - I'm In Love (Foamo Dubstep Remix)

Decent Danceable Dubstep.
