arabesque: anna conda + feist remix.

I promise I’ll return with real posts in the near future. I’m not a business man, I’m a BUSY-ness man.

EDIT: Okay, okay…not quite a “remix” so much as adding a rap towards the end. Pardon my lazy ass blogging. I come from the era when Missy Elliott adding a rap to something was considered a “remix”. However, peeps in the comments are right– Boys Noize should be given credit for this remix.

the death set: negative thinking (james stovall remix).

—————————————————————
Ok, so The Death Set may be totally so 2007, and this remix doesn’t have the Dan Deacon or Bonde do Role brand to push it to the people. However, if you’re observant enough to notice the “CLICK HERE FOR OLDER REMIXES” link on their site, your ears will be graced by a wonderfully mindless interpretation by this dude, James Stovall. It makes me feel like I’m in an overcrowded moonbounce drinking red wine from a jug with my grandma. In Precious Moments sweatshirts! I believe that I can’t be the only one who feels this way.

leif: little bit.

Leif has been mentioned on this blog plenty of times, but it was mainly for his mash-ups and remixes. For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure of his voice tenderly colliding with your earbuds, the time has now come. “Little Bit” is a cover by Swedish songstress Lykke Li, who you may have heard of on some blog that one time.

I’m not about to go make some big claims that Lykke Li will be the “next big thing” to come out of Sweden, and I’m not about to compare her to Feist or some crap like that. Homey don’t play that. I have one single thing to say about this song. And I am going to say it with hesitation, because this isn’t the sort of thing you should admit to the internet. I’m not really even sure if I’ve ever felt this way about a song ever. It’s kind of inapprop…THIS SONG MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE MY CLOTHES OFF. Now I said it. There’s no looking back.

Consider Lykke Li’s version the foreplay. Leif’s version falls somewhere before or after that depending on how you go about in your freaky ways. It still retains the vulnerability that makes the original so drawers-dropping, yet brings the song to the CLUBZ in the most delicious way possible.

Predictable blogger pun: I think I’m more than a little bit in love with this jam! LOLcat.
