I don’t know if I’m just completely susceptible to this syrupy slice of faux-emotional depth or if there really is something almost tragic about this take on a pure pop dance-floor disco jam?
Is it totally empty? Sensationalist?
I love it.

Britney Spears – Til the World Ends (Salem Remix)
Thursday, May 12th, 2011Azari & III – Reckless For Your Love (Tensnake Remix)
Tuesday, December 14th, 2010Hopefully as you make your way through list after of list of someones favorite songs, albums, remixes, eps, tv shows, magazines, people etc… you decide to check a few of them out.
I’ve been going through Pitchfork’s song list this morning and found this excellent remix coming in at #21. Bummed I missed this one throughout the year. It certainly would have made my remix list. Great jam.

#1 Antoine Dodson - Bed Intruder Song?
It’s tough to leave Antoine Dodson off this list after the all the time I spent laughing at “Rape Intruder Song,” but alas, no room for memes here. These are my favorite remixes of the year. With all of these songs producers took the original material and made a better song than the original. CFCF has been on a truly hot streak while Memory Tapes is losing it quick (and that is not for lack of attempts). The I Am Dead remix from CFCF has been one of my favorite songs all year and was even the centerpiece to my mix from earlier this year, “The Sun is Like a Flower.”
Drop a note in the comments and let me know what I missed that’s better than anything on this list.
If you have some of these on your computer and want to create a playlist just import this file as a playlist in iTunes and voila.

Sunday, July 25th, 2010:papercutz – Lylac (Helios Remix) from :papercutz on Vimeo.
I had never heard of :papercutz before but stumbled upon this via @lizzyville on twitter. She manages a great site and was giving this vid a nod so here we are. First things first, the song is really great. Add the gorgeous, lush images which come courtesy of Japanese animation star Daihei Shibataof and you get what I believe is supposed to represent the beginning of life –heady stuff– and you also get a great piece of art. <via>

Creep
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010
Slowly getting details about this new project made up of two females from Brooklyn going by the name of Creep…
They are Lauren Dillard + Lauren Flax and up until today I had only heard the 63 second slice of music on the duo’s MySpace. I asked when we will get to hear some additional music and here are the details from LFlax:
2 new original songs will be up in the next coming weeks to our myspace with Romy from the xx singing.
Set to release on TriAngle records (Kompakt’s sublabel) in the spring time.
**Update 02.19.10**
Robin from 20 Jazz Funk Greats just sent an email clarifying the label situation…
this is robin from tri angle. just wanted to make a few things clear in relation to the post you wrote about creep, as you have been slightly misinformed. tri angle is not a sublabel of kompakt, it is merely being distributed by kompakt, so if you could make that change that would be appreciated because it’s quite important to me. to be honest nothing was supposed to have been said about the project at this point in time, so i’m a little thrown off by everything that has taken place over the last day..
I am excited to hear what Romy will sound like over the top of some dark+glitchy sounds such as these.
They just sent this remix.
Baghdaddy – Hot Shit (Creep Remix)
