Come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Continuing last weeks trend of posting wonderful remixes, here's another couple that are currently blowing me away.
CSS - Let's Make Love & Listen Death From Above (Simian Mobile Disco Mix)
The original is a song that a lot of people are making a lot of fuss about but I personally couldn't see a tremendous appeal in it. It's okay, it's a bit novelty, why has it been such an enormous hit? Then a couple of weeks ago I downloaded Simian Mobile Disco's remix. It's superb - blowing away the weak original in favour of a stompier, sizzlier, and far sexier approach.
Klaxons - Gravity's Rainbow (Soulwax Mix)
In a similar vein, this remix also rips the original to shreds in favour of something far more danceable. Again, I wasn't an enormous fan of the original track, and this really makes it for me. Those of you who are DJs will adore this one, particularly at around 3'45" when perhaps the dirtiest synths in the world drop from the skies and blow your dancefloor away.
Enjoy, till next week!

You can download it by right-clicking the song name and going 'save-as'.
Hope you enjoy it :)

it's a decent remix alright
but i've gotta say though the original is superb! single of the year for last year as far as i'm concerned
sure it got a bit overplayed towards the end of the year as the masses started catching onto it but i still think it's terrific
SMD are good but i really miss their original incarnation as 'simian' who were one of my favourite bands of the last decade

That Soulwax remix is more than amazing.. Would be perfect for any indie dance-floor (DJs of Unit22 and Lennons in Southampton take note!)

great stuff, gets me pumped up for games. I would be very much obliged if more in this vein could be posted, not just for its pump up qualities, but because its just damn good music.

I heard this last night on Sirius and found your blog through Google. I just wanted to let everyone know that when I first heard the Soulwax Mix it was in my truck with a huge stereo system and it gave me chills. When I downloaded it toaday it on my work pc it sounded great, but not the same. If you are going to appreciate this song, you need to listen to it with the right stereo. :)
