Busy P & DJ Mehdi Present: Let The Children Techno

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
About damn time!  International law should demand at least one Ed Banger compilation very 3 months.  Sadly, we have to wait untim Feb. 14 to get up on this ::wink wink:: but whatever.  It will be jammed, and it will be jammed with the utmost of gusto.

All new and unreleased stuff from the usual suspects of Busy P, Mehdi, Mr. Oizo, Mr. Flash, Breakbot Cassius, Feadz & SebastiAn, as well as some feature work from Flying Lotus, Discodiene and a bunch more.

Man. this news just made my month.
Valentine's Day is relevant again!

Katy Perry - Fireworks (DJ Mehdi Remix)

    Katy Perry - Firework (DJ Mehdi Remix) by Hypetrak

Q: How do you turn chicken shit into chicken salad?
A: Replace the terrible track with newness from an Ed Banger producer and minimize the vocals and awful lyrics to such a level that your remix hardly bares any resemblance to the original song.

This formula will NEVER fail.

Side note:  I really don't use enough .gif action around here.  Gotta work on that.

The Ed Banger Seven: Episode 1 (The Storm)

You're not new here...so you know the deal.
I can't properly express my affinity for Ed Banger Records.
Short of anything Daft Punk has ever recorded, electronic music just doesn't get any better that what this ridiculously loaded stable of talent pumps out on a regular basis.  It isn't remotely debateable.

Anyway...Starting today, and continuing with one episode daily, Ed Banger is releasing a 7-part documentary series that follows Justice, Busy P, Uffie, DJ Mehdi, Sebastian, etc on their journey to NYC as their crew finds growing success in the US.

I will not be missing a single minute of this.

Miike Snow Deluxe Edition

My favorite album of 2009, Miike Snow's self-titled debut, is being re-released with a Deluxe Edition that includes 2 new songs:

The Rabbit
Billie Holiday

And 3 remixes of tracks from the original album:
Animal (Mark Ronson Remix)
Silvia (Roboberget Remix)
Burial (DJ Mehdi Remix)

Carte Blanche - In The Mix

Carte Blanche = Ed Banger's DJ Mehdi + Riton(?)

DJ Mehdi: Black Black & Black

The story:  DJ Mehdi of the Ed Banger Crew (remember them?) has a remix compilation album coming up entitled Red Black And Blue, but thanks to copyright issues and whatnot, all the jams couldn't be thrown on.  SO...instead, he's "released" the rest as a playlist on Fairtilizer (along with a download link).

You will dig this.  Trust me.  There's mixes of stuff from Busta, Biggie, CuDi, Miike Snow, Jay-Z, Nas...and MUCH MORE!

Holy Ghost! - I Will Come Back (DJ Mehdi Remix)

Ed Banger x Ed Banger = that good shit

What's that, you say? DJ Mehdi remix of an already fresh Holy Ghost! jam? Yeah, I'll have summa that, thank you. Have some.

Miike Snow

Shout to SF for the heads up.

I still don't know who "2 I's" Miike Snow is (and apparently, something about his name makes me too lazy to do my usual interwebs searching), but the man has taste. A Crookers remix, a DJ Mehdi remix and a Jackelope logo? I'm sold.

::instant 27min blog time warp::

OK . . .laziness has past. I've been to The Space. I am officially down with Miike Snow...but I'm even more confused, because THEY list 3 members, and none of them are named Miike. Whatever. It's Thursday (I think), and I've already checked out mentally.
