Soul Bells

SoundCloud's really helping to enhance exposure of artists worldwide. That's a good thing.

Take a look at Go Go Bizkitt! for example. Bloke has gone from bedroom producer to internationally credible artist in a few short months on the back of his soundcloud (and talent no doubt). Not once have I ever received an email asking for me to host his songs, but I know all about them cuz I can track his marked progress on soundcloud.

Technology!

Check out his latest remix. It's huge.
Le Knight Club-Soul Bells (Go Go Bizkitt! remix) 320 by Go Go Bizkitt!

It's a real 'get the f*ck up and dance' song.

Here's some other music from Keljet. They just made a bootleg of Faithless' new track, 'North Star'

Both are free for download. Both are top notch tunes. Think this Go Go Bizkitt! number may even be nominated for song of the month. Word.

When I hear music...

Wow what a long weekend. I don't think I'm the only one who still feels a bit ordinary. Wasn't sure how to go about posting up some new music for you but figure one big shot to the face has never done anyone bad. You know what I'm talkin' bout.

Firstly we have a new remix of Passion Pit by Keljet, a group out of the Netherlands. Recently we chucked up their remix of Temper Track which was pretty solid and so is this effort as well. Again, my lack of pop culture savvy means that I've never heard the original, but I hear from a reliable source that 'Folds in your hands' is pretty dope. This remix reminds me a little of Grum and Treasure Fingers in terms of a song that has playful synths and an obvious modern disco influence, but still has a bit of girth behind it which carries it well in da club. Listen and download it here from their soundcloud.

Next I've got a nice little remix of Swick's classic original 'Grow Up' by a guy named Blake and his mate Big Boss. I don't know anything about the pair other than that they are also from Melbourne but they've made a pretty simple, yet effective remix of this horn tootin' 'riginal. The baltimore kick is a touch predictable, however it works well in this instance, and while the intro seems a bit laboured, the loops and shuffles of the chorus strips back a little of the repetition of the original and creates some good rhythms.

So in all, two decent tracks that I felt like sharing. I hope you like them.

Peace.
