Graveleaf: ‘The Crusade’

graveleaf Graveleaf: The Crusade

Graveleaf, or N.Y. come L.A. residents, Thee Mike B and Omar Doom (a.k.a. Sir Graves, a.k.a. Doomington) have something special with ‘The Crusade’. The expedition begins briskly with funky little break, and builds up to a full on rave-siren peak-hour knob-twisting electro ‘bow thrower. Peak-hour sound keeping at 100 bpm? Woah. You’re too clever.


MP3: Graveleaf - The Crusade

In the past, we’ve shared Sir Graves remix of Thieves Like Us’s ‘Drugs in My Body’, which you can still d’load right here. If you feel it, give the recent cowbell-heavy indie-styled, Doomington release a look on iTunes. The single, ‘Teenage Shotgun’, comes with a notable remix by N.Y. mixmaster, Eli Escobar.

For a free treat, get at the recent, eclectic and brilliant, ‘Mixin’ It Up for Discobelle Mix’ that Thee Mike B made available for download on, naturally, Discobelle.

For further education, dip into Mike B.’s blog, Mike B. vs. Dickie G..

Thieves Like Us - ‘Drugs in My Body’ remixes from Electroluxe Family’s Jim Starck, Sir Graves, Clique Talk & Popes on Dope

thieveslikeus Thieves Like Us - Drugs in My Body remixes from Electroluxe Familys Jim Starck, Sir Graves, Clique Talk & Popes on Dope

Now Kitsune and Thieves Like Us are just wrapping up their ‘Drugs In My Body’ remix contest advertised here (actually, the contest ends today, so hurry up if it’s news to you!). Every bedroom producer and their second-cousin has a remix or a remix-in-progress, and now they’re coming out of the woodwork!

Thieves Like Us hail from Sweden and the US, met in Berlin and now reside in Manhattan. They make sweet indie-pop and sprinkle it with references to stuff like drugs that give it another layer of flavor—one that might make you see double.

We’ve been championing France’s Electroluxe Family this month, since that just perfect Kris Kross remix we put up last week, and now Jim Stark of the Electroluxe Fam. threw this remix at us to whet our appetite for his upcoming ‘Gunman’ EP.

Removed at request of artist and label.

Another super hot club version comes courtesy of L.A.’s own Sir Graves. L.A.’s finest Mike B of Mike B vs. Dickie G hipped me to this and he certifies it gets dance floors moving. Dude would know, trust.

Those remixes are apples and the following are oranges. Where those are for the club, these are for moody brooding on the mellow tip. One remix from Clique Talk (who BiBaBiDi turned us on to) and another from Popes on Dope (a.k.a. the guys behind Certified Banger and Eclectic Hermit)
