The Saturday Mix #38 - asleep for twenty years with this feeling



Sebastien Tellier - Divine (Danger Remix)
Oh so divine. What do you get when Danger does a mix on divine music? You get a dangerously divine song. (Cheesy I know, but had to let it out.)

Mille - Crysteena (Fear of Tigers Remix)
Mille means 1000 in French. Wonder if it's derived as such.

Fear of Tigers - The Adventures of Pippi Longstrump (Diamond Cut Remix)
Who is Pippi Longstrump? I have a feeling it's Pippi Longstocking, a fictional character in a series of children's books by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren, and adapted into multiple films and television series. In Swedish, it's Pippi Långstrump; Pippi Langstrømpe in Norwegian; and Pippi Langstrumpf in German.

Scanners - Salvation (Don Diablo Remix)
Just how do you turn a rock song into a dancefloor mix?

Metric - Sick Muse (Adam Freeland Remix)
I'm in love with this remix, it's way too dope. NOO! He broke up the "I'll write you harmony in C".

The Radio Dept. - David (The Rice Twins remix)
This is going down with me as slow and purposeful. Good beat, could be semi chillout too, for a change of pace.

Beni - Maximus (Harvard Bass Remix)

you stood out, like knots on old, walked-on wood



All Wrong and the Plans Change - I Get Down
This song is so full of girlish sweetness. All Wrong and the Plans Change is essentially Kassia Conway on vocals, bass and acoustic, while best friend Amy Wood is on the drums. Like they say, along the way the plans (might) have changed, but the music keeps coming. That's the spirit girls, love your stuff! Visit their official site for a free download and more on them.

Beni - Maximus
The small little kid, I reckon not more than 6 years old?, has dope dance moves. Totally sweet.

Riot in Belgium - La Musique
It's a real riot!

The Black Atlantic - Walked-on Wood
The Black Atlantic is a Groningen (The Netherlands) based acoustic pop band formed around singer and songwriter Geert van der Velde, former frontman for American metalcore group Shai Hulud. Listening to them immediately brings to mind Bon Iver and The Antlers in terms of the sound, but Fleet Foxes when it comes to the multi-instrumentalism. Very beautiful song, and fitting that these songs from the album "Reverence for Fallen Trees" were recorded in a log cabin. Sounds familiar?
