Remix 33 –Basstown Edition

DJ Die Young and Choyce Hacks! — Great Scott

Bigs ups to the Basstown crew for an awesome weekend in Boston. Music was spot on, every one was friendly as hell and the Boston kids were dancing their asses off everywhere I looked. So, to celebrate in true Resonator Fasion, here’s pretty much my whole set from Saturday in remix format.

Enur Ft Natasha - “Calabria 2007 (Hatchmatik Clubabria Remix)”

I’ve loved this track since I first heard it and, given the style Die Young was throwing down, I thought this to be a quite fitting opening track. Crowd seemed to appreciate it a ton.

Grizz Le Beast - “Rock It Out (UNK vs. Phunk-a-Delic)”
Links: Grizz Le Beast
Something I snagged from the old Chazology blog a while ago; this track is getting some love again recently and I decided to test it out on the dancefloor. The result? Still fresh as fuck.

RUN DMC - My Adidas (Pilotpriest Remix).mp3
Links: Pilotpriest
One of the dopest remixes in recent months, this track has killed dancefloors comprising of two completely different types of crowds. I snagged this from KissAtlanta but they appear to have taken it down and, since its no longer posted anywhere else, I’m not gonna post it up here again. Sorry kids. You should take the time to stream it from Pilotpriest’s myspace though.. its a killer.

Three 6 Mafia - “Stay Fly (D & G remix)”
Links: D&G
Some random dude dancing his ass off with a custom shirts for the night asked if I had any Three 6 Mafia. Normally I’m not one to pander to requests at deejay nights, but I happened to have this remix that’s been chilling in my collection for almost a year now. I think i’ve posted it before, but its ravey as fuck and I don’t think anyone had any issues with it.

Juiceboxxxx - “Sweat (Blanche DuBois Remix)”
LINKS: Juiceboxxxx | Blanche DuBois
I’m sure you remember the original of this.. it was a catchy and dancy blog smash hit over the summer. Well this remix notches up the funkiness a level to absolute can’t-help-but-get-down-on-the-dance-floor levels and I can’t get enough of it. Figured this would work really well as a transition into the more electro-styled tracks I wanted to drop. Pretty sure the crowd dug this as well, but I was too busy jumping around like an idiot to tell, honestly.

The Touch - “Heart Of The City (Stuffa Remix)”

Really solid track. Not a banger like the ones I have later, but it fit perfectly as a transition into more throw-your-hands-in-the-air material. Plus looping the ending provides a perfect transition into..

Robyn - “Be Mine (Ocelot Mthrfckrs Remix)”
LINKS: OcelotMTHRFCKRS | Robyn
Best. Remix. Evar. Or at least within the recent memory. I’d been saving this one for a while and wanted to use it to highlight a live set with a crowd rather than one of my radio sets (sorry guys!). Damn did people love this. Ocelot never disappoints.

Xinobi - “BMX (Moulinex Remix)”

A staple of mine at this point. Its starts off so unassuming and then just kicks it up into high gear. Perfect track to keep up the energy coming out of Robyn’s driving vocals.

Muscles - One Inch Badge Pin (Vanshe Tech City Gym Remix)”
Links: Muscles | Muscles Music | Vanshe Tech | More Muscles | More Vanshe Tech
Older remix but still solid. I had just heard the Shizam remix of “Sweaty” earlier in the week and couldn’t get Muscles out of my head. Didn’t want to play that Shizam remix here (didn’t think it was the right flow) and this one fit right into the throw your hands up mentality I had going.

Daft Punk - “Da Funk (Thunderous Olympians This Funk Is Broken Edit)”

Little bit of a change of pace. Should have gone with something else here in retrospect, but I thought the crowd could use a little funkiness after a few bangers in a row.

Hollywood Holt - “Caked Up (Klever remix)”

I’m a huge fan of Hollywood Holt and wanted to try this remix out on a crowd. I think it would have gone over better if more people knew who he was, but dancing was still going strong.

??? - “Rocky Theme”

Random cut from the first Flamin Hotz EP. Saw that my time was up so I figured I throw in a little something different/kinda cheesy.

And that’s that kids. Enjoy!

Secondly, Remix!

One of the problems with me only really posting on Fridays is that when I get the hook up on a track, and then sit in it till Friday, people tend to post it up before me. Case and point: The VanShe Tech mix of Feist’s 1234. I came across this yesterday morning, sat on it, and now 4 different blogs have already posted it… ah well. Check it out from one of them, its a good listen.

Here’s a different VanShe Tech remix to make up for it:

Remix Friday Week 11: Shuffle It!

I have something to confess:

I’ve started using iTunes again = [

You see, trying to manage all the incoming music I get for both Resonator and for personal deejay is getting kinda out of hand for me (seeing as its just a hobby at this point and i usually pulll around 50-60 hour work weeks), so I’ve started to use smart playlist within iTunes. I now have a playlist of all unrated tracks to easily determine exactly what has or hasn’t been listened to, and it gives me an easily way to update the genre id3 tag to my liking. I can also easily import any custom iTunes playlist straight into Traktor… sigh, can’t believe I’m telling you all this. It still lags like shit and crashes on me from time to time, but not as bad as when I had those 150gigs of music loaded into it.

So.. I’ve no idea what I want to post this week. I’m just going to put this smart playlist on random and see what comes up (I’m tired and over-worked was up all night dealing with server issues, I think I’m started to bitch like Shaun):

First up. This is like a year old?

“Do You Wanna (JoolsMF Diskob0xx Remix)” - Franz Ferdinand

Not sure if I’ve dropped anything by him before, but he does some crazy chopped and screwed remixes of main-streamish songs, and I generally always like what I hear. His website makes me giggle like a school girl as well: http://www.joolsmf.co.uk/ Though it doesn’t look like its been updated in a while. Check his MySpace here

Haha ok. This one must be karmic revenge:

She’s like, so whatever… NEXT!

Ok, this one’s been around for a while as well, but I fucking love this remix.

“We Run This (Duke Dumont Remix)” - Missy Elliot

Duke Dumont being, well, the man. This track is sooo sick. Fluokids posted up a fanfare/deejay tools track he did not that long ago, and ChazOlogy posted up live rip of his remix of Debbie D’s “Music Makes Me Dance” as well.

What next?…Yay trance!

“North American Scum(Kris Menace Remix)” - LCD Soundsystem

I forget where I found this (I’m sure HypeMachine holds the answer) but its straight up OLD Rave. Like, Late 90s euphoric trance. This track has a surprisingly high number of really good, and really trancey remixes. Hey, no complaints here.

Ok, enough shuffle. But, since this track has been stuck in my head for, oh.. 4 months now?

“Ice Cream” - Muscles

Muscles!

I don’t need her number, I just want to dance with my shirt off. Or, as we drunkenly sing around here in Grant Park, I don’t want your loving, I just want to dance with my PANTS off.
