Got some brand spanking new remixes of Trash Yourself’s collaboration with the Toxic Avenger in the inbox today. Do yourselves a favor.

Trash Yourself & The Toxic Avenger – Die (Ghost Klub Remix)

Trash Yourself & The Toxic Avenger – Die (Kids at the Bar Remix)

The Ghost Klub Remix is dubstep, not even dubstep / electro crossover really. And the Kids at the Bar remix is in their inimitable style, anyone following our blog over the last couple months will undoubtedly be familiar. Anyways Trash Yourself are going to be all over the Midwest in the near future. Check them out.

We have been slacking lately, can’t say much about it, just that real life took over for awhile. But we’re definitely back (well I’m back, Flashcards is in France ATM) so here’s a few goodies. You will probably all remember how big a fans we are of the Dirty Disco Youth right?

Well they’ve done a hilarious (and also very cool) electro cover of the Survivor hit Eye of the Tiger. Its very much in their usual style except for the dubstep sounding basslines that keep popping up in everyones beats recently. Check it.

Dirty Disco Youth – Eye of the Tiger (Survivor Reinterpretation)

And now for something completely different, we’ve been enjoying a few of the Tittsworth tracks that have passed us by recently. I in particular have liked this track he did with the Yay Area’s Federation, if any of y’all remember hyphy you know what I’m talking about.

Tittsworth ft Federation – Drunk As F*CK (Meterhead Dark Disco Mix)

So once I’d heard that I was like who is this Meterhead character?

Well apparently he is involved in a group called WZRDZ, who are bicoastal, and their style is a little bit more over the top. So here is one of the WZRDZ tracks (again with the wobble, what is going on people?) and a track off Meterhead’s EP from last year.

WZRDZ – For The Ladies

Meterhead – Let It Go

That Meterhead track is basically a fidget AC/DC remix, very gnarly. Alright we promise to post more shit to make up for this gap in service, Flashcards is putting the finishing touches on a new mix, so we’re pretty excited about that. Oh yeah, one more WZRDZ remix as a bonus.

CT Burners and Jubilee – Kick It (WZRDZ Remix)

John Roman comes through again with some enormous remixes. Skeleton brings skittering ratchet percussion, deep dubstep bass, and distant submarine pings to the dance floor with Roman’s trademark overdriven synth. This one is filthy.
Felix Cartel – Skeleton (John Roman remix)

The Golden Gloves track is all blips and sirens, with the titular “huh” provided by none other than James Brown. It stays pretty smooth and clean until the metal-guitar synths show up in the third act to tear shit apart, closing the track on an odd, galoping dubstep rhythm.
Golden Gloves vs John Roman – Huh?

And of course, some tracks.
First, a pair of Choose Your Own Adventure remixes, one by Streetlab and one by Flosstradamus. Streetlab offers a darker, busier take, while Flosstradamus aims for the dance floor, but both are worth a listen.
C.Y.O.A. (Streetlab mix)
C.Y.O.A. (Flosstradamus mix)

Next, this Dubka remix of Ultraviolence, which is the most pitch-perfect replication of an 80s action movie anthem I’ve ever heard. If you need to run up and down stairs like Rocky, you’d be hard pressed to find a better song.
Ultraviolence (Dubka Remix)

The good people over at RCRD LBL have recently put up a remix of the Animal Collective’s Summertime Clothes by the master of intergalactic boogie known as Dam Funk. Its got a breezy summer feel to it, and if you’re anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere now’s the time.

Animal Collective – Summertime Clothes (Dam Funk Remix)

I always did think that was the best song on the album, heresy I know. And just so you know what else Mr Funk has got to offer I thought I’d post up one of his better originals.

Dam Funk – Hood Pass Intact

Dude mostly records for Peanut Butter Wolf’s Stones Throw label, if you’re of the vinyl collector sort I’d highly suggest picking up some of those beats, if you can find them that is. All of you hitting us up for those Flying Lotus and Shoes remixes should give this guy a listen.

Just been poking through the old inbox and I’ve got some interesting stuff from two groups.  We recently posted a La Dolce Vita remix of Trash Yourself, and since y’all seemed to like that one here’s another from them. This is a remix of a track off The Faint’s album last year.

The Faint – Forever Growing Centipedes (La Dolce Vita Remix)

We’re always happy to support local artists here, so good luck to them doing their thing down in Chi right now.  And on a slightly different tip we’ve got a track from a new group from France called Bach & Gina.

They seem like a couple of nice guys, so I’d excuse a little minor ESL hilarity when it comes to their lyrics. The track itself is quite interesting, it sounds if they’ve started with an influence from old Italian Disco and warped it into more modern sounding Electro.

Bach & Gina – Space Pirate

Keep the beats coming people, we love hearing new music.

I’ve been disappointed with some of John Roman‘s output lately, but this is pretty good. And anything with the Tribe is worth a listen. You can expect a big grinding synth line, busy drums, and some epic screeching build ups.
A Tribe Called Quest – Scenario (John Roman Remix)

While I’m posting rap remixes, here’s a few that fell through the cracks. The Discotech track is perfect for sending home a floor full of tired dancers, and the Biggie is massive (even if the man himself doesn’t make an appearance).
T.I. – Whatever You Like (Discotech remix)
Notorious B.I.G. – Mo Money Mo Problems (Laidback Luke Bootleg)

This next one won’t get anyone dancing, but since I’ve already posted a pitch-dropped Milli, I might as well put up a chipmunk version.
You probably won’t be seeing much Lotus around here, so snap this up.
Lil Wayne – A Milli (Flying Lotus Robo Tussin Remix)

A Passion Pit member calling himself “Shuttle” has decided to amp up the ironic with a 90′s rave throwback remix of blog favorite The Reeling, brilliantly titled “Super Club Megamix 99″. If that doesn’t remind you of Napster, you’re too young.
Get out your E and glowsticks.

We’re big fans of Designer Drugs around here, but their latest remix is pretty over-the-top fantastic. It prominantly features the main theme of Tchaikovsky’s March Slav, which is the first Classical reference I can think of in blog house history (correct me if I’m wrong. I would love to be wrong on this). They even auto-tuned Karen O’s hook to match. Since we’re music nerds with a fondness for the low-brow, this is like Christmas morning.
Never in my life did I expect to hear ODB chant “Wu. Tang.” over Tchaikovsky.
Thank you, Designer Drugs.

N.A.S.A. – Strange Enough (ft. Karen O, Ol Dirty Bastard, Fatlip) [Desinger Drugs Remix]

Since I didn’t post these the first time around, here’s my two other favorite DD tracks of the moment.
Annie – Antonio (Designer Drugs Remix)
Midnight Juggernauts – Tombstone (Designer Drugs Belated Bootleg Re-edit)

Diamonds, also known as Asher of the Glamour, recently sent Hot Biscuits a couple of original tracks. And we likey, never been ashamed to borrow an exclusive track here or there.

Especially when they’re this good, he’s got a 2005 Booka Shade meets 90s Disco House sort of thing going on. The Glamour have rocked every set we’ve seen them play, so its exciting to see local artists develop their sound so quickly.

My personal favorite is Do It To You.

Diamonds – Do It To You

But the other track has definitely got something going for it.

Diamonds – You’re So Cruel

Peace to the Milwaukee scene.
