Little Lovers so Polite (Grayarea Remix) by Silversun Pickups

6/10
I don't care for Silver Sun Pickups as it is but I like that quite a bit. It made me think of Shiny Toy Guns' coer of "Major Tom" which made me think of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" which made me want to find a remix of "Space Oddity" which led me to its Deep Space Remix.

I really enjoyed that. I would give it an 8 but the guy in the video comments is right, the countdown in the intro just sounded really off.
7/10

This song makes me feel gangster.

Kukan Dub Lagan - Saiko Dub

This is cool stuff. I got my hands on Kukan Dub Lagan's most recent album a little while ago (New Life New Vision) and this is a bit better than most of what's on it. A lot of stuff by this artist seems kinda canned, but this song manages to get around that pretty well. 6.5/10.

Here's one someone just showed me today ... it's really, really intensely glitchy and cacophonous, to the point where "-core" might need to be added to any genre classification. I'm not sure how much I like it myself but I figure I'd show it to you guys.

Kashiwa Daisuke - Requiem

Its interesting, to say the least.
Not for me though. Maybe on some Ket it could be better :p
4/10

On by Aphex Twin

Sweet! I like, Aphex Twin always makes good music. I like the "oriental" vibe of the song. 7/10

I am not sure if everyone will agree with me that this electronic music, but I would argue that real hip-hop should be identified as electronic music. I just love the sample on this one:

Madvillain - Fancy Clown

Sick as fuck. I love the sound of sped up soul samples. Drum n Bass + Sped up soul samples = eargasm. 9/10

Sub Focus - Could This Be Real

Nice soulful D&B. A little bit cheezy, but that's okay! 7/10

Zero T - Why Would You

Wicked sick!!!!! This tune is unbelievable, I can't imagine how good it would sound love on some good MDMA. =D 10/10 Oh my god, I really need to stop procrastinating and start studying ahhhhhh!!

EDIT: That song is so damn good. I can't believe it! I wish I was in Europe right now, dancing to this tune with my hommies!!!!

Now for a great classic:

Fatboy Slim - Sunset (Bird of Prey)

Wow! - it's been many years since I last heard that, and I'd totally forgotten how good it is! - those deep synths absolutely blow my mind!!! - the gentle breakbeats are great too, as is the clever use of the Jim Morrison vocal samples. This may just be the best track Fatboy Slim ever made! 9/10.


I still think that a lot of Fatboy Slim's output is cheesy as hell, but here's one of his other tracks that I do really like:



Fatboy Slim - Santa Cruz

hehe i like some fatboy slim especially better living through chemistry. i recall listening to that album when i had my first job. santa cruz is also one of my favs, always puts me in high spirits especially the 2nd half. wicked tune 8.5/10

Omar S - Plesetsk Cosmodrome
 
5/10

to me that was hardly music, let alone "dance" music as all it was some random clips of people talking about wierd shit and strange echoing noises. ok becomes music around 4 min. mark. oh why does an 8 minute track take 4 minutes to build up to anything resembling music.

King Africa-Salta....pioneer in latin house movement
 
KK, you've done it! That track warrants a rating above 5. In fact, I liked it alot. It was hard without being annoying and I really liked the fuzzy bassline. There were some elements I wasn't crazy about like that Lyn Collins overused "Whoo-Yeah" vocal break but overall it was good.
6/10
Technikal-"Hard House Slut"

3/10

If this was 2001 and I was on ecstasy I would probably rate this a 7.... its super repetitive generic progressive hard house with shitty vocal samples. This is something you would hear in the clubs KK goes to! Maybe a little less cheesy though ;)

Laidback Luke & Lee Mortimer - Blau (Original)

Decent! Is this like Fidget house? Could have used a better hook and more structure though 5/10

Now for some old school dub:

Scientist - Ten Dangerous Matches 8

To be honest, I dislike pretty much all reggae. I tend to like music that has some balls - y'know - a bit of passion, but reggae is the total opposite of that - it all just has that annoying wishy washy rhythm.

This Scientist track is ok I suppose - it had some nice real instrumentation. 5/10.



Here's some seriously fucked-up dubstep:


Zomby - Diamonds & Pearls
