How fast can I do a music post
May. 11th, 2012 02:05 pmBusy, squeezing in a few minutes between this and the next that, trying to close out a bunch of tabs. I won't have time for all of it, so expect more next week. This week, a new track with its remix, a remix of a favorite, and a full-length stream of epic awesomeness as our finisher.

The Very Best (http://www.facebook.com/theverybest) is a Malawian-inspired trio that has been storming London underground shows for a couple years now. Their new track, "Yoshua Alikuti" is a straight up strong-vocal celebration of their unique style. Mwamwaya's voice is powerful and the electronica beats/backing are good. Nadastrom's remix pulls out the vocals and makes the sound more intimate. While keeping the fundamental beat, the remix also makes the track more complex and layered. It's hard to say one is better than the other - both are really excellent.

Speaking of remixes and excellent voices, I had just been replaying Gossip's "Perfect World" the other day when this appeared on my stream. It's RAC's remix - apparently it came out about a month ago but I just heard it. The remixer is listed as André Allen Anjos, who I don't think I've heard before. It's got RAC-signature touches, though, particularly the intensely woven electronica. I suspect we'll see more mixes of this track coming soon - it's too good to ignore.

I class this as one of those "if you're in the mood" tracks. It starts off as a very typical disco-influenced banger and honestly I almost didn't listen past the opening bit, which is just so typical I didn't want more. Fortunately about 40 seconds in the entire track takes a whole new subterranean dive and about 1:30 we get the vocal over-tracking. So, if you're in the mood for something that's definitely a banger, but not your typical, then give this a go. Heavyfeet (http://www.facebook.com/heavyfeet) did a decent job on this but I'd like to see them redo it and tighten up the opening to where it matches the originality and quality of the middle.

This? This is brilliant. The word "unique" gets overused to death but what we have here is a collection of truly unique sounds. The roots are in traditional Hungarian folk music and modern dance/ectronica remix styles. Analog Cuvée have been doing this kind of thing for a couple years and here they bring in some of the best names in the business (Young Punx, Phil Retrospector, DJ Schmolli, and more) to take the idea to a new level by remixing and mashing. I've listened to the entire stream multiple times now and it still blows me away. Get your free download here: http://digitalcuvee.tumblr.com/
