Where is the money George?

Yo Boppers

Here’s another post of some classic gems. We’ve got a 90s classic remixed by a modern House master. Then we have a classic French electro hit, predating (and perhaps, in part, creating) the mega trend in the mid 00′s.

Our first track is a remix of the 1997 Basement Jaxx hit, Fly Life. Its a long and deep mix by UK House producer and dub hero, Switch. This is a good remix if you want something more mellow to play in your sets. Nice baseline too.

To close things off, I present to you one of the most critical french dance trax ever made, Flat Beat by Mr. Oizo. Driving baseline and a simple beat keep this track going. Mix it up with some filters and a few minor cuts, and you have yourself a floor filler. Also, check out the classic music video for it.

Keep it fresh.

Welcome Boppers

Hope everyone is doing ok and moving about. I’m actually writing this post while listening to heavy metal… Sometimes its good to cross-pollinate as a friend of mine says. With that said, I have 2 very funky tracks to share with you, both happen to be remixes that came out in 2005! Wow does that seem long ago…

First track is a re-edit of Basement Jaxx’s filter house tune Jus 1 Kiss. A track off their massive hit album, Rooty. Overall, its just an extended and more dancefloor friendly version by bopper favorite Boris Dlugosch along side Michi Lange. This track came off the US CD single of Where’s Your Head At?

Finally, a remix by one of my personal favorites… MSTRKRFT, of my other personal favorite band… Death From Above 1979. Recently, I got really nostalgic and decided to buy a T-Shirt of DFA79… so I figured this was a good way to top that off. With that said, theres also been talk on the MSTRKRFT MSGBRD about Jesse starting his own record label for the purposes of releasing awesome dance tunes designed to CRUSH dancefloors. I have heard some of the tracks and I am quite quite impressed. More on this to follow. This remix was found on the Death From Above remix LP, Romance Bloody Romance.
