The Young Punx – You’ve Got To (Norman Cook Mix)

[Download]
Ok, I really didn’t care for the original but this remix is fun and has the usual hijinx of a Fat Boy Slim track plus some reggae dub sounds to round it all out.

Underworld – Crocodile

Tons of trance sounds on this track with echoey vocals by Hyde. Nice to hear Underworld again, after their five year hiatus.

Isabelle Antena – Omerta (Bossa remix by nicola conte)

This is a groovy down tempo brazilian bossa nova jazz track to start your day off right. Has a very Koop sound to the track.

Basement Jaxx – Nifty

Here’s the latest from Basement Jaxx, which has put me back in good graces with them. Wasn’t a big fan of the last two albums they released, but this track shows them getting back to true form. This is a house track with a rumbling bass synth and all the “classic” basement Jaxx sound.

David Vendetta Featuring Akram – Unidos Para La Musica

Not something I thought would mix well, but does so with surprising emotion. Haunting Arabic vocals over a deep electronica groove – who knew… The vocals carry so much pain and love they seep through the track.
The track starts off sounding rather Depeche Mode-ish, then vocals start wailing which sounds like Andy Bell (erasure fame), and then quickly turns into more of a Dead Can Dance Vibe. All the while propelling the dance rhythm further and further.

Belleruche – Northen Girls

Downtempo trip hop esque track with a haunting bass line. The bass line itself sounds like it would fit nicely in a Gorillaz track. I love the vocals on this track sung by Kathrin deBoer.

Shout Out Louds – Tonight I Have To Leave It

Yes, How I miss the days of mascara and puffy sneakers… if this track doesn’t take you back to the early 80’s Cure nothin’ will. This track reminds me alot of the Cure’s “In Between Days”

Album: Our Ill Wills

Artist: Shout Out Louds
