A few posts back we featured the UK’s Futurecop! remixed by Cryptonites, but this time around we’re featuring a remix Futurecop! did for Florida party rappers Yo Majesty!
There’s not much I can say about Futurecop! other than they know what they’re doing and they do it well. Here’s the catchy-80’s-nostalgia-synth-loving Futurecop! take on Yo Majesty’s cut ‘Club Action’..
Europe’s Billion Dollar DJs have been keeping pretty busy, recently remixing electro rock cuties Robots In Disguise, as well as cranking out other awesome remixes for the likes of Brazilian dance punkers CSS and fellow UK bad girl M.I.A..
They’ve also recently collaborated with London’s Oh-Death, so keep your eyes peeled and ears open for that.
The BDDJ’s were kind enough to give Missingtoof an exclusive remix of Florida’s party rap superstars Yo Majesty- this’ll have you doing some major electro aerobics for real…Bounce-ba-bounce-ba-bounce-ba-bounce!!!
DJ Paul V. is kind of an authority on mash-ups. What makes him an authority? Perhaps because he does a little mash-up heavy program for (arguably the coolest radio station in the world) Indie 103.1 in Los Angeles. The show is The Smash Mix! airing every Friday afternoon at 5:30 and, alternatively, downloadable over the internet by visiting the site (as well as streamable from the Indie 103.1 Smash Mix page). Always something fun going on over there!
Paul V. sent us this mash-up which he is particularly proud of, and works very well. It’s a blend of Yo Majesty’s ‘Club Action’, as remixed by Bag Raiders (which also uses some of Enya’s ‘Orinoco Flow [Sail Away]‘) smashed with Depeche Mode’s ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’ as remixed by Dirty South.
Sounds great, although I must admit when the Enya part finally drops it’s a little abrupt in contrast with all the, ‘fuck that shit, nigga!’. But we love abrupt, that’s why we like love ‘fuck that shit’ chorus in the first place!:
Now, here’s another one of his most recent mashes, which takes Lil’ Mama’s ‘Lip Gloss’ and glazes it over the classic tune, ‘Tequila’ by The Champs (a listen will likely bring up fond memories of Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure):
DJ Paul V. also does the Neon Noise radio show on Indie 103.1 every Saturday night (midnight-3am); It’s a mix of all sorts of tracks you’d probably love, check program’s page on Indie’s site here and know that you can stream the show live from the website!
Paul V. doesn’t quit there, he is also a regular at the monthly mash-up party, Bootie LA, as well as the resident DJ of L.A.’s longest-running underground dance club, Dragstrip 66. And, lastly, of course, he has a MySpace.
