Remix 39:

So this week I’m posting the best tracks from the past couple times I attempted to write a remix post (and failed). Enjoy = p

I like this better than the Diplo one as it uses all the basic elements I try to employ while remixing, yet it gets pulled off oh so much better.

Every little thing

The other day, Hacks basically posted some old stuff with the disclaimer of “um, but it’s good”.

Amen to that.

Last year was rough on me, musically. I basically spent every minute of every day complaining whilst listening to a very small palmful of sounds, while only chronicling a too-limited few. One of those albums that I never wrote a word about was Panda Bear’s Person Pitch.

There’s no love here at Res for Animal Collective, the freak-folktronic collective from which Noah “Panda Bear” hails. In fact, it’s pretty much always the exact opposite. Being redubbed the “Happy Super Fuzzy Animal Friends” by Hacks is really the lightest they’ve gotten off-they’re also the bearers of any and every fault for any and every thing. Hell, if the coffee pot breaks it’s their fault, and it will remain so until they finally reign themselves in and make something that sounds like the half-ecstasy half-terror that’s professed to be there sound, instead of the leaves-and-sticks potsmoke they actually purvey.

That said, the Panda Bear album was one of the best releases of 2007. Given that indie and punk culture began sopping up the minimal techno aesthetic like they’d never heard a closed hi-hat in their entire lives (and, fuck, when you’ve lived on a diet of tattoo ink and Blood Brothers albums, you probably haven’t), Noah’s second solo record was his first to sound anything at all like God making tech, and he nailed it in one go ’round. Harmonious, enveloping and surreal, Person Pitch, undoubtedly, saved many a life last year.

It’s such a sublime, life-affirming, sun-soaked record that, initially, the idea of anyone getting grease and Ableton all over Panda Bear’s perfection pissed me off. Then, about a week or so ago, Spank Rock’s XXXchange stepped up .

Panda Bear: Comfy In Nautica (XXXchange remix)

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Now, granted, this is a ‘lectro heart-rattling rumbler, but XXXchange does something I’d never have thought someone who is more used to making Friday Dance Party jams would begin to play at: he translates Noah’s nearly-indecipherable vocals into a cold, robotic form, juxtaposing them with the original’s honeykissed harmonies to create something both sweaty and transcendent. This is, really, the only way a Panda Bear remix should be done if the dance floor is the ultimate goal.

With that sort of rejigger, I almost feel as though I’m given a free pass to throw Person Pitch on repeat (again) for the rest of day. If you’re a RES reader and you missed this record last year, now’s your shot. I never thought I’d witness these words being written by yours truly, but…if Brian Wilson made electronic music, he’d make Person Pitch. It’s that heartfelt, weird and remarkable.

Friendly bears of china, they want to be friends with you.





Sunny Day Sets Fire

Sunny Day Sets Fire

Due to moving, incorrect addresses, and just general laziness on my part (because we’re being honest here) this comes to you as much delayed. However that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t listen!

Sunny Day Sets Fire, on their own, is this catchy, almost haunting 60s-ish, psy-rock, getting-high-on-a-beach, pop-rock band hailing from just about every place in the known universe. Influences vary based on who’s writing about them, but personally I hear a lot of the old Tripping Daisy in there mashed up with something kinda sounding like the Beatles, only not really, yet still reminds me of them (How’s that for being indecisive?). They had their first remix EP drop last month, and it reworked the original hazy rock tunes into some 6-headed monster made to lurk around in the darkest recess of the dance floor.

To start, here’s the headlining single “Stranger” to help give a feel for their sound:

Sunny Day Sets Fire - “Stranger”

Heavy-hitters CSS come up first with a remix of “Wilderness”; adding a solid electro baseline to otherwise ethereal vocals, it ends up as one of those tracks that’s perfect for headphones and jamming to while at work… not that I’m doing that now or anything.

Sunny Day Sets Fire - “Wilderness (CSS Remix)”

And, my personal favorite on the EP: Baron Von Luxxury’s remix of “Brainless”. This one is total dance floor material (shocking, I know) and is the most heavy hitting remix on the EP. A nice tennis-ball bass line combined with some dirty riffs and chopped vocals.. its-a nice.

Plim Souls!

Plim Souls

So I’ve a little bit of a change of pace to bring to you kids here (for me at least). Its this slightly glitchy remix of a rock number set over to us by Plim Souls. Its one of those tracks that isn’t gonna blow up a dance floor, but when it it finds its way into your play list you’ll get so caught up in the moment the next 5 minutes of your life is nothing but total auditory immersion. Its in the same frame of mind as the To Strings remix of Sufjan’s “Chicago” which, coming from me, is a big complement.

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.

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.

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)”

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.

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.

More Spitzer Love

They Are Spitzer!

The brothers Spitzer have sent us over a new remix in part to “thank everyone for the previous postings”. As if we need thanks for other people giving us good music! Its as yet un-released, was sent out a few hours ago, and is already starting to make its way around the blog sphere AND -as with the previous material- this remix delivers.

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Spitzer - “Avida Dollars”

Need more info? here’s there Bio [translated from] their own words:

“Hidden behind “Spitzer” are two Rock brought-up brothers. Two
brothers who got breast-fed in their earlier years by Axl Rose and
Jimmy Page. After 7 years of faithful and loyal services towards the
Indie music scene, they decided to abandon their mediator and
drumsticks for a new passion. They found themselves utterly seduced by
the synthetic environment and the animal beats of Techno. Musicians,
and now producers, their music became a hit amongst bloggers on the
net. The blogosphere was amazed by the twilight dark ambiance and the
frenetic robotic sound of some of their tracks available on the Web.
Understandably backed up by the whole electro Lyon community, booked
by the Festival des Nuits sonores, they were also called by Kylie
Minogue to create a crazy remix, that is still very secret. Track
after track, Spitzer creates a new map without boundaries nor rules,
frenetic and grandiose techno music set in between Nathan Fake’s
grandiloquence and the rhythmic scathing of Trentmoller. Sought by
many labels, Spitzer is already cooking some new remixes and is
working to finalise their first EP, “Roller Coaster”. The two brothers
will also start an Australian tour beginning April 2008. The two
Spitzer brothers will road trip from one club to another and get the
dance floor groovin’.”

Stream their other tracks via http://www.myspace.com/therealspitzer and then leave a warm tingly comment about rainbows and unicorns.

<hacks/>

(anti-riaa note: While I’m pretty sure (I.E positive) this remix will end up being released on a major label (it is Kylie, after all), I made the executive decision that since we a) have given Spitzer love before b) they themselves are still unsigned and c) they are awesome as we love them, it was not completely breaking our rules to post it. This is the opinion of hacks and does not reflect the rest of Resonator, but personally I think its the only opinion that matters!)

P.S. This post contains excessive use of punctuation because I’m hung over and, frankly, I just want to.





One Hand Loves The Remix Follow

Shaun posted up a couple tracks from the One Hand Loves The Other remix LP, and I’d figured I’d add mine into the mix as a quick addendum. Its not as readily accessible as some of the other stuff, and giving it an honest critique, I think the synth line is a little too hot and it looses a little focus towards the end. Overall its still a solid effort I think; I’ve gotten good reception from those I’ve let listen but I don’t expect it to be rocking out any dance floors.

Hollywood Holt & Mano

Hollywood Holt



I first heard Hollywood Holt a few months back, not really sure where (If I’d to guess it’d be discobelle). I really dug the mixtape but it managed to get lost for a bit. Well after my most recent laptop death I was digging through my external drive to get things organized and found Hollywood’s mixtape again.

God damn its good –like had it near on repeat for like 2 weeks now good. And you know the best part? Its still totally available to download directly from his website.

Hollywood’s got a fresh vocal sound: crisp and tight whether he’s flowing fast or just throwing down some background narrative. He’s got production work done by fellow Chicago rocker Million Dollar Mano (who’s done some slick production and remix work I’ll refresh you on later).

The second is by Mic Terror and illustrates some more production work he’s been doing.
