Blood On My Snert
Some of you might have noticed the Kypski 5 minute mix in our latest podcast. It ended with a mashup of Kypski’s remix on ‘Blood On My Hands’ by Nobody Beats The Drum and Spag Heddy‘s ‘Dubsnert (Kypski Edit)’. With his permission, we made a full version of that mashup and we’ve put it up for free: ‘Blood In My Snert‘.

Born To Die (Mattanoll Remix)
Mattanoll posted his remix on Lana Del Rey’s ‘Born To Die’ two weeks ago. The download link has just recently been unlocked, so here it is now. Nice disco vibe for Lana Del Rey’s depressed vocals. Not sure about the intro, but after a few seconds it is a proper remix that definitely has ‘Mattanoll was here’ written all over it.

Bait & Chardonnay
Another mash, delivered by Duncan Gerow. The instrumental in this track is from ‘Marvin & Chardonnay’ by Big Sean (Also features Kanye West and Roscoe Dash), produced by Andrew Wansel. (Who also produced for Wiz Khalifa and Nicki Minaj). The acapella comes from Wale’s ‘Bait’, both tracks were released last year.

The new February Podcast is up! We’ve been speaking with two fantastic dutch producer/performers Kypski and Bas Bron. Also, Le Tracasseur told us about their favorite music and Ben Mono put together a solid guest mix. Tracklists, streams, downloads etc. here. As always, we hope you enjoy. On with today’s tracks:

Dream On
This has been on several people’s mixtapes and podcasts, yet we didn’t have a clue it was actually a free download. Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs is giving away ‘Dream On’ if you subscribe here. After all, T.E.E.D. is one of those artists you should just be subscribed to anyway.

Love Love Love Going Back to Cali
From T.E.E.D. to G.L.U.B., Washington’s mashup artist recently released another cool mixup featuring Notorious BIG and Aeroplane. The instrumental is from Low Motion Disco’s ‘Love Love Love’ in Aeroplane’s remix. On top of that comes Notorious BIG’s ‘Going Back To Cali’ acapella.

Count On It
Kenton Dunson‘s new single is out and up for free: ‘Count On It’. very decent hip-hop production, and Dunson sounds good as per usual. For those of you who didn’t grow up on American television, this is the sample they used. That’s from back in 1976, performed by the Pointer Sisters. Go ask your (grand)parents who they are.

Bad Ponys
Dan Aux sent in something new he crafted. The track features the instrumental version of Ginuwine’s ‘Pony’ (1996), the acapella from M.I.A.’s ‘Bad Girls’ and guitar samples from Fleetwood Mac’s Big Love (the 1997 stripped down version).

Pharaohs (What So Not Re-rub)
And this is a pretty cool Re-rub on SBTRKT and Roses Gabor’s ‘Pharaohs’ by What So Not. To be honest, WSN left a lot of the original in tact and that is why I’m posting this track: the original is just really good. (Posted it above so you can spot the differences.) This one edit might definitely work better in live sets.

Summertime Sadness (Reich & Bleich Remix)
Another day, another Lana Del Rey remix. But hey, at least this one is pretty damn decent. Reich & Bleich (One guy from Germany) remixed ‘Summertime Sadness’. And although it has a pretty sad title, and Lana Del Rey on vocals, I can actually see this being played in a big room. Track relies mostly on a solid ensemble of sidechained synths.

Are You That Somebody (Sango Remix)
Nineties acapellas go really well with that whole bass music genre. Seattle’s Sango delivers proof with his remix on Aaliyah’s ‘Are You That Somebody’. Too bad the acapella sometimes is a bit too soft in comparison to the instrumental. Aw well, if you’re born in the late eighties or early nineties you can probably dream these vocals anyway.

Move Up
One of the best tracks of 2011 plus rap vocals. The Hood Internet was going to do this sooner or later. They’ve caught Phantogram’s ‘Don’t Move’ instrumental version and combined it with Wiz Khalifa’s ‘Up’. And that’s not an easy mashup, as the acapella is pretty melodic. Proper mashup.

Don’t Stop (St. Lucia Remix)
Ending this post with a nice upbeat remix on Foster The People’s ‘Don’t Stop’. This version kinda sorta really sounds like that ‘Bohemian Like You’ track that was used in half a gazillion tv-commercials. By the way, the remixer on this track is NY’s St. Lucia.

Super Best Friends
Last week Popeska premiered his latest track ‘Super Best Friends’. It established what we’ve been suspecting for quite a while now. Skrillex, meet your match. Popeska is able to produce the same quality of bazerk dubstep tunes. And he’s handing them out like free candy.

What Did I Do (All The Lights Remix)
Most of all, Kele Okeereke’s single ‘What Did I Do’ was a showcase for Lucy Taylor. (Who, for a singer, is pretty damn impossible to Google.) Kele himself was nearly nowhere to be found on the vocals. The track is an easy, heavily Dubstep-influenced Pop track. Australian duo All The Lights sprinkled some of their magic on it. Which results in a nice disco rendition with, most notably, a smooth rolling bassline.
