Maral Salmassi is one fine specimen. Hailing from Cologne, Germany, and dropping wax on Television Rocks, this DJ/Producer/Rapper makes electro-gone-rap that we can get into. She’s a little crass, but that’s just the way we like ‘em. Yo DJs, play this one at yr club. Drunks love to be told to rub their butt on stuff! It’s a banger remix by Berlin-based producer Trashtalk:

Maral Salmassi’s newest single is ‘Natural Fun’, more of the same style. But that style is so stylish we don’t mind—not even slightly. Not one, but two remixes to hit you up side the head. Two loving slaps from Germany: These versions come from Cologne’s Zero Cash and Munich’s Ben Mono. The Ben Mono remix ain’t nothing new if you troll the blogospehere—but that Zero Cash mix is prime & fresh (Ben Mono remix? OMG that’s, like, so 6 weeks ago!).

And before you think Maral Salmassi is all remix-smoke-&-mirrors, here’s a pair to set you right. Plain as day.
