Remix monday!! (cue sirens)!!Alright, its a big week here, first of the semester, with a fatty party lurking at its end. Me and the Count are on a non-stop listening party with ourselves (and burritos). The whole TRP crew is accruing their selections for Saturday's flosstradamus/plastic little after party. I haven't thrown anything really hot up in a few days (sorry, I'm sloppy when I travel and I was stealing wifi from a mexican restaurant called Las Chicas for several days) so I thought I'd slam down a few saucy refits. Because seriously, who doesn't need to remix their Monday?
BOOKA SHADE
BOOKA SHADE! All electronic music just seems to be pointing towards Booka Shade these days. I came in on these guys late, but damn if Mandarine Girl isn't just the fucking sound right now! Sorry for all the present superlatives but if you haven't purchased their album Movements yet you are just sleeping. This track comes off the Roxy Music Remix 01 double 12" which I hope will be the first in a series, because this is that fire.
Nothing can knock the Roxy!

ROMAN
Roman Flügel has been doing it real big for a long time. I'm not sure which I heard first: the stuttering uberbanger Geht's Noch or Roman's "23 positions in a one night stand" remix of (HEARTHROB) Audion's masterpiece Just Fucking: both tracks are mind melters and either way it was clear that this Flügel guy is BOSS. This remix, which I found on soulseek, is by Swedish House Mafia stalwart Steve Angello and comes off the Bass in Ya Face mixtape.

BOYSNOIZE
And now for something that's totally not from Germany: PSYCH! I can't get enough of Berlin's Boys Noize, whose wall of sound approach to trashy electro makes him distinctly not French. This is that dark and dangerous shit, Feel Good (TV Off) is an amazing cut I may have already posted, you can also hear it on their myspace (also check out Erole Attack). This Kaiser Chiefs remix is a little slow to go but soon becomes totally off the hook and Haldern is money.Kaiser Chiefs and Boys Noize - Everyday I Love You Less and Less [alt link]

Also, DYF and check out the Rex the Dog remix of the Sounds on fluokids or any one of a number of other places and Bird Peterson's constant barrage of remixes on the hollerboard, and that new Curses! Damn. Good music in 07!
Have a good week and enjoy the music, it might be a few days unless something like comes up. Yerp yerp!!!
