5 Feet Of Horchata In My Dream

Not much exceptional music around these days. Don't worry, I'll treat you guys to something special soon.

Miami Horror remix of 5 Feet Of Snow has a Toxic Avenger feel, albeit more tame. Kid Cola remix of Horchata has that tropical Carribean fidget sound going on, and the Redial remix is different to most Walking On A Dream remixes, it has a more 'Danger-ous' feel about it.

I started building my Fixie today! I have a frame, two dodgy wheels, and a handlebar. It's a load of crap, but at least I'll be doing my bit for the environment. Not only am I not clogging the atmosphere with pollution from my car, but I'm making it from second hand parts, so that things are recycled. Because, you know, the environment is very important to me! I feel that everyone should be doing as much as I am.

Ha.

London Loves You Too

Crystal Fighters resfreshing single, I Love London has garnered much deserved attention from various blogs, and, well, why not? It buzzes and reverberates along at a frantic pace, and the whole song just screams, erm, I love London? Sorry. Stuck for a description.

80Kidz and Kid Cola (play the two remixes at the same time for an 80KidzCola remix) both apply squelching, squealing synths, but in slightly different ways. 80Kidz maintain the hectic feel of the original, as well as adding a 90's techno rave stab, while Kid Cola slows it right down, showing off a more fidgety type of approach.

Oh, Crystal Fighters remix for you kids. Hurried and brilliant, as always.

The unmistakeably Spanish accent shouting I Love London reminds me of a Japanese tourist I once saw in Cambodia. He wanted to buy a souvenir, which was fixed at a price of 10 American dollars. Despite the tourists attempt to haggle, the Cambodian vendor stood by the original price. The persistent tourist then started to say I Love Cambodia in a heavy Japanese accent. Needless to say, the tourist got the price down to 7 American dollars.
