Vampire Weekend, Treasure Fingers, Chromeo, Remixes

 

 
Not long ago in blogs far far away Chromeo’s remix of Treasure Fingers ”Cross The Dancefloor” was blowing up. Looks like Treasure Fingers returned the favor with this remix of “100 %”.
 

Chromeo - 100 Percent (Treasure Fingers Remix)
 
Since we are on the subject of Chromeo, check out their remix of Vampire Weekend. This is just a good track that is guaranteed to uplift you [...]

The Virgins + The Chimney Climbers + The Twelves

 

 
Here we have a new track from one of Jacuzzi Killers favorite upcoming producer/songwriters, The Chimney Climbers. This time they mixed up Rich Girls by NYC’s Indie sensation, The Virgins.

Also, we can’t forget about The Twelves remix of the same song that just came out. I think everyone knows the Brazilian duo by [...]

Peace Fire Remixed by Keenhouse and Grum

 
 

 
p e a c e FIRE is an American living in Japan who is relatively unknown to the casual blog observer, but I think that will change in the future. p e a c e FIRE delivers with heavy 80’s influence and some really unique touches, but it sounds like his production techniques are still evolving. Keenhouse is a [...]

Mailbag

 

So I’ve been really lazy not only in posting lately, so I thought I’d make up with it for a longer than normal post.  Here are the best tracks that found their way into our inbox recently:
 
First up, our good friends The Chimney Climbers took a stab at DatA’s “Rapture” for the remix contest hosted [...]

New Track from Mansion

 
 

Toronto’s Mansion just sent us this unreleased new track. Incase you didn’t know, the Mansion duo are MSTRKRFT’s protégés and it shows in all the right ways.  Check it out.

A-Trak + Sinden = Say Whoa

 

 
I’m not really sure how I feel about this track yet, although I usually love what both of these electro/hip-hop producers do with almost anything they touch, so I figure it just hadn’t had time to grow on me yet.  Siden takes A-Trak’s blog hit “Say Whoa” and makes it even more dance floor ready.  [...]

Animal Machine - Para One

 

Here we have an older remix by Para One of the seemingly demented Polish artist Animal Machine. (Not that there is anything wrong with being demented.) Anyway, if you think back to Para One’s signature remixes, like Daft Punk’s “The Prime Time of Your Life” and the Ayumi Hamasaki mix, you can see that Para One loves that choppy Boys Noize feel on the lyric track. [...]

Herve’, A-Trak, and Cadence Weapon

 
I’m not sure how alot of you are going to feel about this track, the lyrics are kind of stupid, and I actually didn’t like it at first, but now I can’t get it out of my head.  It is a collaboration between our favorite world champ turntablist from Montreal, A-Trak; Herve’, the UK producer [...]

Mailbag!

Our inbox has been getting hammered lately, but here are a few tracks that made their way onto my Ipod. 
First up, check out this track by Bipolar Badwise titled “Entwined“.  They are a three peice electro unit hailing from Melbourne, Australia who cite their influences as “Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, The Presets and Cut [...]

The Producers

I always have alot of respect for artists that have nothing to hide when it comes to their production methods.  If you look back through time, all of the biggest acts always had cameras in the studio, showing off how and what they did every step of the way.  This lack of insecurity might [...]
