I had meant to put this together on Friday and didn't. So.

This is a really interesting study in how a track gets reworked for a movie soundtrack. The track is the Chromatics' 15-minute electronic space-fuzz oeuvre "Tick of the Clock." I mostly like the original and so did Johnny Jewel as he's lifted some of the best of its ambiance and souped it up for tension and pacing to go with the new movie "Drive". The movie edit is much tighter, much deeper bass, and one of the primary reasons I'm thinking about getting the movie soundtrack.
Interesting aside: I had been meaning to point to the Soundcloud posting of the movie edit but over the weekend it disappeared. Odd.

I was curious to see what Cledys Villalon sounded like in other tracks and her MySpace page has two entries. "Porque" is a sparse, fast, breathy Latin track; "Que Pasa" is more electronic but retains the high BPM. In both she's sort of rap-singing but at her own unhurried pace. It's an interesting contrast - as though she's commenting on/with the music.

Beni's "Someone Just Like You" is a really pleasant moving house-dance number. No pretensions, nothing special, just some nice beats and good vocals.

Artful, the DJ name of Mark Hill, who used to be Artful in Artful Dodger, has gone out solo and judging from the track featured on this site he's doing some really nice stuff. The track is "Could Just Be The Bassline" and it has lovely vocals from Kal Levelle (http://www.myspace.com/kallavellemusic) whose voice sounds familiar. Anyway, this is a pretty dance love song and the video is worth a watch, too.

I'm still working through the Midnight Conspiracy homepage and wanted to pull this one out as it's in the same vein as the Artful track. It's a somewhat hard-edged electro-house track, with some slinky and dark vocal samples on top. The original is also quite good, though less hard and with gentler vocals.
