I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.  Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.  I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.  All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die.

Bromance (The Love You Seek) (Avicii's Vocal Extended) - Tim Berg (Golden Banana)
For those of you that don't have the vocal mix.  One of the best Prog House tracks around right now.

Cobra Charm (Original Mix) - Tim Green (Silver Banana)
One of the most underrated producers in the blog world.  I rarely ever see his name pop up except on the housiest of blogs.  Electro kids, time to grow up.

The Phoenix Alive (Kris Menace Mix) - Monarchy
Electro House on the Nu-Disco side.

Firecracker (Ravid & Fabian Remix) - Syndaesia
DUUUUUUUUUUBBSTTETEEPEPTPEPTEPTEPTESBSUBDUB!

Solitude Is Bliss (Mickey Moonlight Remix) - Tame Impala
This is for you, Jumpman.  For everyone else, if you like psychedelic music, you'll like this.

Envy (Owl Vision Remix) - STYGG
Very uptempo heavy Electro.

Sunshine (Ernold Sane Remix) - Rye Rye feat. M.I.A.
Some Funky for the hipsters.

Dreamer (Sgt Slick Remix) - Tune In Tokyo
Progressive House, some really interesting sounds in this one.  This dude's been doing pretty well on Beatport.

Tweet It (DBN Remix) - Tim Berg, Norman Doray, Sebastien Drums
More Progggggggggggg!

Limit Is The Sky (Original Mix) - Swanky Tunes
MOAR PROG!

We have a lot to thank the Asians for.  And by a lot I mean video games.  Here's a post of random stuff:

Born Free (12th Planet Remix) - M.I.A. (Golden Banana)
Blast this from your car with the windows down and stare down the person next to you.  That's called rollin' deep.

How Deep Is Your Love - Keith Sweat
Old school R&B jam.  It's literally like sex coming from the speakers.  Tony, if you still read this, this song is for you.

Pick Up The Party - DJ Agent 86
Breakbeat, Funk, and Rap come together in the best way possible.  Highly recommend this jam.  +10 Bastille Love and Admiration points to whoever names the song and artist sampled for the beat of this one.

It Kills Me (Breakage Remix) - Melanie Fiona
Some UK Garage, this one's for you Jumpman.  Also, Breakage is killing it, everyone look out for this dude.

Freaks (Bird Peterson Remix) - Wale
Nice beat, glad to see new stuff from this guy.  If you remember, we interviewed him a while back, check it HERE.

Coco Drunk (Douster Remix) - Poirier
Not really my style, but I know lots of you get into this shit.  Bass heavy.

The Great Zany Show (Instrumental Mix) - Zany
Hardstyle Trance.  Gotta love it, really do.  Cheers DaftWho.

Twelves Reasons to love the Twelves

The Twelves:

1. They're from Brazil

2. Look at the setup in the picture, it's beautiful.

3. They make the best synth poppy electro you can find out there

4. They look like really nice guys

5. They're bearded (always a plus)

6. They make great mixes, so I assume they're great DJs.

7. They've made a remix that makes every college kid jizz their pants when they hear it at a party

8. Both M and I like them so: you should like them

9. Did I mention they're from Brazil?

10. They know what's cool (I'm really starting to lose ideas for this)

11. M sometimes acts like a twelves year old boy

12. Lastly, but definitely not least, it's been almost 12 years (or more realistically 12 weeks) since Jumpman has posted. Refer to these posts to understand better: First and second

EDIT: I forgot how amazing this one is:
Thursday (The Twelves Remix) by Asobi Seksu


Help, I'm Alive (Twelves Remix) by Metric, SO good, I've had this song for quite a while, but I never really sat down and listened to it. Classic Twelves.

Take on Me (Twelves Remix) by A-Ha, just incredible. What a great remix of this song, would recommend playing for any set with this kind of happy/feel good atmosphere. This song would just destroy a party in college. People love what they know.

Drugs in My Body (Twelves Remix) by The Twelves, This was actually the song which started getting me into the Twelves. My friend Tony gave me this even before their boyfriend remix. Though I do admit it's by no means my favorite, it holds a sentimental value so I though I'd put it up.

GREAT to play at any party:
Boys (The Twelves Remix) by M.I.A., this should be evident why this would be a good song to play at a party.

Reckoner (The Twelves Remix) by Radiohead, I don't normally approve of most Radiohead remixes, but this one is so fantastic. Really keeps the idea of the original, just makes it a little dancier.

So Far Away from the Sea (Twelves Remix) by Yuksek, an amazing original, Yuksek alone would get me to listen to this remix.

Hurricane Jane (Twelves Remix) by The Black Kids

Ce Jeu (The Twelves Remix) by Yelle, Just found this one, though it's not new, it's great.

Elena's Eruo Dance Birthday Party

Tonight, I got the pleasure of DJing for Elena's birthday party.  And yes, it is, or was I guess, a Sunday.  She's from Bulgaria, so she requested a lot of Euro House, especially the likes of David Guetta.  I went for 3 hours, playing tons of different stuff, even got to lay down some Flying Lotus and Ratatat beats while a kid from our dorm free styled over them, and well I might add.  But I also got a new challenge, as she handed me a few CDs during the show and asked me to play some of the songs from it.  I popped it into my computer and listened to them in iTunes, and they were Bulgarian songs, sort of like eastern hip-hop-ish around 180 BPM.  Some of them were songs off the Garden State soundtrack, the fuck am I supposed to do with that?  I thought I'd post some of the songs I ended up having to mix on the spot; it was a very interesting experience.  Track 10 I actually ended up mixing into Paper Planes (DFA Remix) - M.I.A. which worked quite nicely and went over really well.

Track 1 - Unkown Artist (to me at least)

Track 10 - Unkown Artist

Paper Planes (DFA Remix) - M.I.A.
