4 Songs Fuck

Such a huge back log due to my laziness and situations that are out of my control. I want to post more but I have a hard time keeping up with the hundreds of gmails we receive every day. Here's a couple to reduce the number of un posted gems.

Sorry to anyone who tried to aurally attend our first mix session for The Hype FM. The bugs have been squashed and Jesse from THFM has set the mix to play at the same time this week - Promise. 8:00 PM EST this Saturday the 11th. All of the talk of radio shows has me thinking playlists so with that I give you a taste of the tracks that made the cut.

(Paintings - Jim Gaylord)


First up is a spacey pop tune from Telepathe who hail from Brooklyn. A mixture of Ladytron, Postal Service and M83 in a blender comes to mind. The Shoes add a bit of spice to this one bringing the radio edit some dance appeal whereas the Loving Hand and School Of Seven Bells, Fades and Shades remixes are way on the experimental side.

DL : Telepathe - Chromes On It (The Shoes remix)


Picking up the pace is Dylan Rhymes and Meat Katie on this collabo that has a distinctly Lot 49 edge to it all. Teched up house lines that morph and transmogrify into weirdo electro breaks and and sweaty warehouse trance touches. Dark and brooding but still progressive.

DL : Meat Katie & Dylan Rhymes - Longacre (Dylan Rhymes re-edit)



Lo Fi Disco with a Perry Farrell (Janes Addiction era) on vocals are some of the notes that spring forth when I play the original 'Big Weekend' from Lemonade. I haven't been able to pin down which part of the U.S. they are from because they say
3 different cites on their myspace but I guess it really doesn't matter that much.

Delorean is a highlight remix as well as the one we have here from L-Vis 1990. As usual L-Vis takes the road less traveled with fresh pads and snare drum manipulations and beats that cannot be found anywhere else... good luck mixing this one.

DL : Lemonade - Big Weekend (L-Vis 1990 remix)


Finally it Feadz. Its been a long time since the 'Happy Meal' EP which gave us the classic track 'Numanoid' My pal Leigh included the Flashin Outro in a upcoming mix he did for us and after hearing it mixed into Curtis Mayfield's 'Supafly' I will never be the same. The name of his Ep is P*N*M*B or (People Numbers Money Business) and it has all Ed Bangers brand of beefed up almost electro hop in its foundations.

DL : Feadz - Flashin' Outro (original mix) .
