Back to your regularly scheduled programming.
Kraftwerk vs. Michael Jackson. Please don’t hate me. In case you don’t know who Kraftwerk is, they embody the stereotype parodied on the SNL skit “Sprockets”. Kraftwerk also made comments in an interview declaring the supremacy of robots to human life forms. Really, this mix is part of my circular quest [...]
A mix of samplings from the Orb’s discography. Trippy, ambient and spacy.
The more sensitive, light-hearted side of electro. Up next: Orb mix, and Kraftwerk remixed with Michael Jackson (no, I’m not kidding you.)
Heavy beats, rap and industrial samples over house. Forgive me in advance for subjecting you to a house remix of DMX’s “Lord Give Me a Sign” during which he has an all too intimate moment conversing with the Lord.
More house/rap remixes. Really, where else are you going to hear John Dahlbäck (Swedish house) remixed with Lil Kim and Nelly Furtado?
A new experiment: remixing rap vocals over dance music. 2Pac, Lil’ Kim, Lil’ Wayne, Ja Rule, Ludacris, Paul Wall, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, et. al sampled over house and funk beats.
Lil’ Wayne and Pitbull feature prominently in the last of my installment of the Get Krunk series. I’ll stick to my more white-kid appropriate hip hop remixes, since, well, I’m white and I ain’t got no hustle.
Challenge: tell me what the track is that runs from 48:20 to 51:30 is (it’s been rather heavily remixed, but is from a rather popular artist / album).
French electro is a bit different than German electro (which is something a machine might enjoy listening to it while going about its daily tasks) — it’s beat heavy and grimy, but is produced more like pop or rock.
Something a little more ambient and chilled out.
A little less Southern, and a lot more clubbin’.
Indie rock mixed with disco, minimalist techno with funk, German pop with electro, and a whole lot more.
Nothing especially pretentious about this one.
A remix of the Get Physical Music catalogue, one of the finest progressive house labels (IMO).
A mix of Latin electro. Next in the international electro series is a compilation of French electro.
In the spirit of those rap show fliers with huge ghetto booties, diamonds and low-riders, I’ve compiled some music suitable for only one purpose. Even the Germans have come to understand the true meaning of krunk.
I suppose this isn’t quite what I had in mind. Rather, I’m mimicking Tiga’s remixes of the Gigolo Records catalogue, an American house label. His mix has the title “American Gigolo”. I’m Polish, hence Polish Gigolo. I suppose this is following in the legacy of the Polish szlachta, who dressed like pimps [...]
To clarify, unlike part I, this is not the overly hyper, cocaine-riddled 80s music, but rather the more mellow dance and pop from the 80s. Mellow except for the house music and 80s electro used for the beats.
