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)

let's not try to figure out everything at once



The National - Fake Empire

Mackintosh Braun - Wake Up
Chuck (the show) brought my attention to this song of theirs. Here was fantastic and this revels in the same electronic soundscape. Pleasant and easy on the ears, with a simple beat that makes you tap your feet, I really think these guys are one to look out for. This is what they said of their album, "The idea was to create an album that you didn’t have to skip through, hopefully this is one of those albums for people."

Scanners - Salvation

Wild Beasts - Two Dancers I
One of the most underrated bands of last year, they were stellar and slipped under the radar of most. Raw and filled with vivid imagery (not very pleasant ones), the outcome is a gritty and tight song that makes one feel disconsolate.
