REMIXESSo, remixes are amazing. All agreed? We don't embrace them enough here, and we really should. There's been some awesome ones this year so far, here are 10 of the best:
- Micachu - Lips (Clark Kunt's Heavy Mental Mix)
The craziest remix for a while - Micachu's scathing attack, backed by an attack of metal guitars.
- La Roux - In For The Kill (Skreams Let's Get Ravey Mix)
The most played of the lot, Skream's killer remix of La Roux's breakthrough hit, good stuff.
- Empire Of The Sun - We Are The People (Button Masher Remix)
So many good mixes of this song but this sprawling 7 and a half minute one beats the rest.
- We Have Band - Oh! (Plugs Remix)
One of the singles of the year remixed by one of the best new electronic acts of the year, perfect.
- Rogues - Not So Pretty (Not So Pretty (Example & Wire Remix)
This could be the only good song, but it's really good and the rap transforms it into a monster.
- Friendly Fires - Skeleton Boy (Air France Remix)
From one of the best albums of '08 comes a flawless remix for the single. Euphoric as usual.
- The Virgins - Teen Lovers (The Shoes Remix)
Featuring that stupid girl who appears in A Cross The Universe. But it's electro-pop genius.
- Bloc Party - Signs (Armand Van Helden Remix)
Bloc Party have always had great remixes, and Intimacy Remixed did not disappoint.
- Yuksek - Little Dirty Trip (Vicarious Bliss Remix)
A remix so good that Yuksek put it on the end of his album. Both acts are great and so is this.
Sufjan Stevens - You Are The Blood ('Blood, Part 2' Buck 65 Remix)
Not so much a remix as a reworking. Maybe the best thing off 'Dark Was The Night'
It's been a good 6 months. We'll do this again in December if you're free. Happy day xxxcc
