Colossus (New Layout)


So, we've got a new layout.  It's a lot easier for colorblind folk like myself to see whats going on.  This here batch is pretty good, I hope y'all enjoy yourselves.  It's got a little something for everyone.

If anyone can tell me the trick to beating the above Colossus, you'll earn +100 Bastille Love and Admiration points.

-M

Risingson (Bassnectar Remix) - Massive Attack (Golden Banana)
Starts real subby, then EXPLODES.  Hip-hop tempo.

Insomnia (Original Mix) - Starkillers, Pimp Rockers, Marco Machiavelli, Tom Hangs
A Dutchy remake of a 90s Anthem House classic.  You'll recognize it.

Something Good Can Work (The Twelves Remix) - Two Door Cinema Club
The Twelves just kill it.  Every single fucking time.  They were pretty fun at HARD LA.

Stinkfinger (Original Mix) - Doctor P, Flux Pavillion
Two of the most loved names in Dubstep.

I Feel Love feat. Wynter Gordo (Goodwil, Hook N Sling Remix) - Rhythm Masters, MYNC, Wynter G
Tech House with a proggy bulid, that I'm not personally a fan of, but I feel like if you're crowd is rolling they'll all be like "THATS HOW I FEEEEEEEEL"

WTNF - Marco V feat Benjamin Bates
More Tech House for the Rave crowd.  Or is it Techno?  Or is it Tech Trance.  Ugh...

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.

Grunt Birthday Party


I made a transition tonight from The Twelves remix of Black Kids into Mstrkrft's remix of Ayumi Hamaski.  It reminds me a lot of that sound of children screaming every time you get a head shot with the Grunt Birthday Party skull on.  You'll see why.
