Gobble Gobble Gobble. Looks like our Track of the Week fell on Thanksgiving this year!
Spencer & Hill - Cool (Afrojack Remix)
Featuring Afrojack’s remix of ‘Cool’ as a Track of the Week was an unanimous decision. Rising artist like Afrojack remind me why I live and breathe the air of blissful audio waves. His music nestles right in there with a category of tunes I like to call bubbling and it mixes perfectly with the acid like tones of house, but also has the strength and power to match the electro scene. His remix of Riverside was one of the earlier tunes to catch my attention, but I still find myself playing out his Moombah remix and let us not forget his original hits too!
The ‘Cool’ remix contains many of the elements that make up my love and enjoyment of Afrojacks music. It has those bubbling tones and fun vocals, “So what I really wanna say is…” but most importantly his music never lets you get bored by conservatively switching things up throughout the song. The important thing to notice is Afrojack’s control, he plays with a great deal of elements that can be full blown abused, such as the sirens and bubbling wah wahs, but he keeps it together and at times where most artist would find themselves leaning on a particular sample for 3 minutes he knows exactly when to drop and breakdown each song.

Dedicated to the man on the road, Papa Fe! Safe travels and try to Enjoy the Silence whenever possible..if possible…full time Mr. Mama and Touring DJ. Sleep and Silence may be limited, but it definitely makes one appreciate it more. Boppers this song doesn’t need any introduction and I’m not posting the original for download because there is NO reason why all of you shouldn’t already have it and if not go buy it or find some way to get it asap! Why am I posting a wind down song at the start of the weekend, because there is nothing more beautiful then the ‘calm before the storm.’
Flash! OoOOooOo Savior of the Universe!
Hi:Fi vs. Dave Darell - Flash 2.9 is one hell of a song and with the history of it in our early bopcasts with Papa Fe it is no surprise that it was chosen as our Track of the Week!
This is a song for the mature and although it may bring up awkward memories of the recent ice-skating movie, with Will Ferrel and that Napolean Dynamite kid, I can assure you that the song came first! Queen & Vanguards Flash (2003) is a beast to be reckoned with and the Darell v. Hi:Fi is the fruit us electronic junkies hunger for!
Sit back and load the Bopgun. I’m taking the Boppers back to Lectro/Indie tuesdays, B.M.M. (Before Mr Momma) and taking others to Blades of Glory, but I hope I’m taking everyone to a place of extreme comfort and musical satisfaction!

Deadmau5 – FML [album: Lack of a Better Name]
Welcome to November, is everyone ready for MOAR??? I know CTRL is. This song has made a mess of things time after time and although it quite similar to Laidback Luke – My God, I figured it was appropriate we get the Big Cheese up on the site (after all we have had direct requests). And what better time to release a track from the Mau5 then following the release of his latest album ‘For Lack of a Better Name,’ and his latest performance at HARD in Los Angeles.
The track is FML. And it a Track of the Week to reckon with. If anyone plans to spin this out, I recommend using it wisely. The audience will be pumped with rounds from the mau5′s laser ‘pew pew’ and kicked heavily by his thundering bass! GO get his latest release, ‘For Lack of a Better Name’ every single track on there is worth listening to over and over again as well as playing out.
