It’s Mix Time: Dirty Article

If it’s 128bpm funky house you’re looking for, go no further, because I’m back to doing what comes easiest: blending dancefloor friendly chunks of house from current and future chart-botherers and even U2. Yes, U2. It also has that Chican€ re-do of that Sigur R0s/Planet Earth thingie which no doubt many will find to be very distasteful and others will catapult into the Top 5.

We also had to pay some kind of respect to Micha€l Jackson and what better than this rather groovesome Dr Kucho rerub of Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough.

And has anyone noticed that WaWa seem to be becoming the new Freemasons/Seamus Haji?

While you’re at it, I’ve uploaded a better version of Pure Imagination that fixes the dodgy bit of cacophony at the beginning. Please download it and replace it in your iTunes and we shall never speak of it again.

It’s Mix Time: Pure Imagination

Um, it’s been a while…

It’s Mix Time! NSFW

 

 

Leo Giamani a little more overdressed than usual.

Of course it’s not really NSFW (except for Lily Allen’s naughty swearing).

 

Yes, it’s mix time again, and we move from my latest (EOTS) and my oldest darlings (PSB) through some moody stuff. And then it’s funky house all the way home. Or ‘nosebleed house’ as Other Half inexplicably calls it (sheesh, it’s hardly bloody gabba). This might be a good mix to put on to get the cool kids to dance and then while they are up, they may as well stay up. 

It also features some ropey transitions as I couldn’t get my paws on proper extended versions of a couple of tracks, but I’m sure you’ll overlook that as you frug wildly in a drunken haze around the living room. 

Tracklist: NSFW

1. We Are The People (Burns Remix) Empire of the Sun
2. Love Etc. (Gui Boratto Mix) Pet Shop Boys
3. Blue Monday (Vandalism Remix) Kurd Maverick
4. Need To Feel Loved (Adam K & Soha Vocal Mix)  Reflekt feat. Delline Bass

It’s Mix Time: Recessionista

I may be poor but I’m not cheap etc etc…

So everyone has or will be made redundant as a result of securitisation and other made-up things, but we can still dance, right?

We’ve got lots of this year’s critical darlings such as Lykke Li, Santogold and Ladyhawke. All of whom will be forgotten this time next year when we are talking about Empire Of The Sun and Little Boots. We’ve got a groovy proper dancey mid-section. We’ve got some class with the Grammy award nominated Deadmau5 mix of Morgan Page. We’ve got some Kings of Leon (Kings of Leon!!!) for Dr Pat Jones who insisted I play it last time I DJed (and I didn’t ha ha. But it is totally amazing.). Then it all goes to hell in a handbag and Soulwax heavy metal up Kylie, Diplo fucks around with Marlena Shaw and Enda dispenses with time signatures entirely.

And nowhere else will you hear The Undertones being mixed into Ashlee Simpson.

1. Lights Out (David Rubato Remix) Santogold

If that’s all a bit heavy weather, why not get yourself some mince pies, mulled wine and download my gentle seasonal Scarves & Gloves mixes instead?

New Empire Of The Sun Remix: We Are The People

‘We Are The People’ is making a strong bid to be my track of 2008, and now the remixes are starting to appear. This one, by Ted & Francis, is not as dancefloor-friendly as some of the remixes of ‘Walking On A Dream’, but it ain’t bad. It underuses the heartbreaking refrain from the original, which, given the weird structure of the original, is understandable.

I ordered the CD from CDWow (couldn’t resist buying it again even after getting via iTunes – I’m such a sucker.)

UPDATE: CDWow seem to be selling the album for €1.99 at the moment – that has to be a mistake! Grab it quick! Looks like that ship has sailed!

It’s Mix Time! Freemasonry

Gratuitous shot of hunky Olympic chap.

 

In which Enda asks just how many Freemasons tracks can you take before you start yearning for Motörhead’s Ace of Spades?

This mix is partially inspired by my first foray into DJing when my noisy Soulwax tracks brought the gay boys up to the box to (nicely) demand Freemasons.

I love me some Freemasons as much as the next boy. After all they have managed to miraculously convert some of Beyoncé’s dreadful robo-R&B stuff into swingorilliant disco stormers. They’ve just done the same for Moby and their own stuff is pretty ace too.

So why have one chocolate when you can gorge on the whole box?
