Damn, This Shit is Fresh

I've got a whole new slew of remixes for you to get your body moving and head rocking. I'm super pumped about this Klaxons' track remixed by Australia's Capt and Crooked. I've been waiting for another track to capture the same energy as his phenomenal "Threnody" remix and the epicness of his work on "Flashover" with Klaxons' airy vocals and some hard synths is right what the doctor ordered. The track is great all the way through, but at 3:00 in the vocals get really chorused out and it sets up the song for a perfect final drop. Love it.

Speaking of epic songs, Adam Freeland let the master of showmanship himself, Etienne De Crecy, take his "How to Fake Your Own Life" and mix it into a wonder of a little piece of electronic gold. It's long, like all of the Frenchman's work, but just the same it draws you in really well and the drops are so well constructed that you won't be able to stop listening. Give it a chance up to around 2:00 in and you'll see what I mean.

For those of you who didn't think they could stomach another listening of Swedish House Mafia's "One" after all the hype off the original and then the Pharrell mix, not to mention how many people have been playing it out in their sets, sit tight and bear with me. TCHNCRCY favorite Congorock has remixed the song into a real hard hitting monster that needs to make it into your collection. Sorry about the quality but the first time I heard this track, Annie Nightingale was babbling over it literally ever 2 seconds so this is what we got.

Everyone is freaking out over "I Crave Paris", the vocals of Caribbean Flight Facilities laid over Aeroplane's remix of another TCHNCRCY favorite Friendly Fires. I've honestly given the song multiple listens and nothing about it really makes it stand out. I mean it's not bad but the original Aeroplane remix is great and the original Friendly Fires track is one of my favorites. It doesn't seem like an improvement over either, or even over the original "Crave You". Whatever floats your boat I guess. The song can be found below so you can make up your own mind, but i highly recommend the original Aeroplane remix that I'm putting up along with it. The Friendly Fires vocals are beautiful and Aeroplane chills out the song into a great summer jam.

Bonus:
For those of you who missed it, the Parisian devil Don Rimini dropped a new EP called "N-Large Your Parties" last Friday that is off the chain. I've got one of the tracks off of it called "All About" which is a hyperactive track that has some epic bass to buzz your ears. Grab the track and if you like it, buy the EP.
