That guy’s a terror since the public-school era:

This one’s also excellent (it’s still Party in the USA – but mixed to “I Got a Story to Tell You” instead of “Party and Bullshit”) – in fact, it might even be the superior mix as it contains absolutely zero Miley Cyrus (just the Party in the USA riff).

I’ve been on a Pixies cover trip the last few days, so I’ve been looking for all sorts of weird and wonderful covers, remixes and other paraphernalia. And then I hit this:

I just don’t see how you’re going to do a better one-man version of Where Is My Mind? than this one by ThePETEBOX* – phenomenomenal! =D

Relatedly, if you’re in a more electronic, minimalist mood – you could always try the refracture remix right here – both are top notch in different ways:

* = apart from getting the lyrics right – “see it swimming” not “singing swimming” =P

Was listening to some Big Pauper (Panzah Zandah) stuff the other day when I heard this on the (free) Cops Eat Flowers EP – and I really like it, it’s kinda corky and has a cool beat and some nice samples and stuff. Perfect summer trip-hop/chillout stuff, so I thought I’d share.

There’s lots more free/pay-what-you-want stuff at the Big Pauper site – Me & THIS Army (Radiohead remixes) is especially good, and there’s also some nice tracks on the Beck remix album Aphids on the Lettuce!

My current fave track off DCfC’s recent album Codes and Keys…

Great song, but I’m not entirely convinced by the video.

Also, from the forthcoming DCfC remix album Keys and Codes comes this 2 Bears remix of the very same [Warning: May contain traces of disco] =P

My wife put me on to this track, and it’s rather nice. It starts a bit slow, but a decent refrain that kicks in around the 1:33 mark saves it in a big way.

There’s a dance remix by RUFUS available here [link gone, sorry - r3dux 2012] which people are seemingly loving and hating in roughly equal measure. I, for one, welcome our new dance remix overlords…
