The Saturday Mix #36

Massive Attack - Paradise Circus (Gui Boratto Remix)

Yeasayer - Ambling Alp (Memory Tapes Remix)
I like the remix, except for that odd bit starting around 2:20, it kinda spoiled the whole shizzle. Damn it.

Broken Social Scene - World Sick
Anomaly here, but just in from here, Broken Social Scene's releasing their new album "Forgiveness Rock Record" on May 4. Say what? What's music without BSS and their motley crew of talented musicians? Oh have we been waiting for this day. Get a listen on the free track they've provided, World Sick. It's one massive track and let's hear a collective O-M-G please. Gradual build up of the intro built around country-ish strumming that is an indication of how wonderful this song could/would/will be. You think that the song title is about how the world is "sick", still on the road to recovery from all the what nots that have happened in 2009? Smooth pace and strong vocals with prerequisite rock stuff and precise orchestration from BSS ensure that hype for their upcoming album will build. Will it be a climatic explosion like around 4:00 or lukewarm like around 5:05? I sure hope it's the former and will be waiting for May 4 with eager anticipation.

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed
Pop at it's boppy best. A few remixes here and there and it's all primed for the sweaty grinding of the dance floor. Pretty fanciful video.

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed (Monarchy Remix)
Slowed down remix suited for closing the night but it totally belies the fact that it's two hot new acts in one song, cue supernova. Spacey feel tendered by Monarchy that makes you feel all doozy and Ellie Goulding's vocals messing with your mind. Lovely.

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed (Penguin Prison feat. Theophilus London Remix)
Solid and power packed, Theophilus London gives it his treatment with some additional vocals for that R&B touch and Penguin Prison runs it through the works. Voila, let's roll people.

Monarchy - Gold In The Fire (Flak Attack Remix)
Got your order! One dope remix coming right up. I don't know who Flak Attack is, but one thing for sure this is a fucking sick remix. It definitely can stop a raging bear right in it's tracks, much less me. Beam me up Scotty! Maybe a new autoKratz + Delphic. Don't bet against it, but Monarchy's gonna be huge.
