here are some new tunes i'm listening to, provided by hype m, of course.
i can't help diggin' the dub styleee integration that a lot of the remixes and beats got goin' on, even portugal the man is utilizing that bass-y background.
the m.i.a. remix is just good. maybe it's my partiality towards her. this song could be terrible, i wouldn't know though because i adore everything about her. she is such a bad ass, and i can never get enough. after all is said and done, the hype m download pooped out on me and it couldn't be uploaded to this page, anyhow, if you really want to hear it it's the stern remix of sunshowers.
the dj khaled, luda, and snoop tracks are just satisfying my inner thug right now. typical rap, love it or hate it, i need a little fix every now and then.
peasant has been on my radar ever since i heard 'the end', introduced to me by boycompanion. it evokes so much emotion in the most eerily beautiful way possible, very shins-esque, and who doesn't like the shins?
my true obsession on this list is the modest mouse mix. 'fire it up' is my favorite modest mouse song and the mash-up remix is... glorious. click, listen, love.
ahh butterfly bones, this is a heavy dose for synth addicts everywhere. the beat-synth combination is delicate, it's butterfly 80's to the max, but
good (keyword: good).
the chromeo remix can speak for itself. we're all familiar enough with the musical musings of chromeo, so here's a remix.
kid sister is mysteriously satisfying and reminds my of a dubby album leaf. i don't really care for the voice at the beginning, it reminds me of corny r&b. an instrumental of this song would be wondrous.
butterfly explosion is news to me, breaking news. it brings me back to my deftones days, and has that raw quality you hear in bands that haven't yet had a major studio process the ef out of them, think naturally aged cheddar v. kraft singles.
the kissaway trail is another band that's news to me, also good news. love their use of bells.
the gorillaz new album plastic beach (which isn't even out yet, muahaha) is pretty freaky-funky. 'glitter freeze' is probably my favorite song on the album (as well as 'rhinestone eyes', 'superfast jellyfish', and 'melancholy hill'), dub-a-licious trippy-ness.
massive attack is a super beat, super dub, in your face mix. awesome.
ok go/passion pit remix is just straight uplifting. catchy, and fun as hell, a la passion pit's usual repertoire.
