Friday Fun Day

There’s something interesting about artists and bands who pick names that are so generic.

It’s like they want to sort of fly under the radar with a name you won’t remember when you want to Google them at 3 in the morning… and then suddenly everyone’s talking about them and no one can remember what they’re called.

“Oh yeah! Men. Rrrright.”

This remix by Pegase uses a lot of subtle elements from different genres and it’s nicely put together.

It’s your Friday song… now shake your hair, volume up! School’s out!

I’m pretty sure Merriweather Post Pavilion will be in a lot of peoples top albums for 09′.  Continuing the trend of rapping over samples from the latest hip(ster) band for internet fame we have 607‘s take on Taste.

Animal Collective ft. 607 – Taste (Remix)

Phoenix‘s latest, “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix”, is a pretty damn stellar pop album.  It’s set for release, May 25th.  This is a tight new wave/disco/pet shop boys-ish reworking of 1901 from Mother Father.  You can download the original for free from Phoenix’s website!

Phoenix – 1901 (M_F Nu Wave rmx)

Fan Death has also done a great remix of this Datarock track.

Datarock – Give It Up (Kissy Sell Remix)

Anorak of the french house posse, Valerie is a WC fave.  French house / disco pop.  Did you know, in British slang an anorak is a person, typically a man, who is an enthusiast interested in information regarded as boring or unfathomable by the rest of the population.

Anorak – Nightdrive With You (Pomomofo Remix)

Pegase is the newest and youngest member of Valerie.  If this is the demo version, imagine how good the final version will sound.  Very excited to hear more from Pegase!
