This is fast becoming a lazy list of tracks I can’t be arsed or don’t get round to posting during the week, anyway, don’t let that distract from the tunes on offer this week.
Most of this weeks selection need little introduction. M.I.A returns with a cracking electro punk vibe and Holy Ghost! has remixed the shit outta LCD Soundsytem’s ‘Drunk Girls’. It strangely reminds me of The Undertones, think it’s the backing vocal harmonies or perhaps I’m losing it anway I’m looking forward to the new album. 2 more mixes for your aural pleasure; a thumping rework of Boy-8-Bit and more graphical references with the 16Bit Remix of Skism, simply awesome Dubstep! Last but not least is The Cast of Cheers ‘Tigerfox’, certainly one of the best rock bands in Ireland without doubt, they absolutely blew me away at only their second live gig, not to be missed.
Mp3: Skism – The Blank (16Bit Remix)
Mp3: Boy 8-Bit – Wolfen (Jokers Of The Scene Remix)
Mp3: LCD Soundsystem – Drunk Girls (Holy Ghost! Remix)
A wonderful blog I only stumbled across through a link to my own!
The Cast of Cheers album is still on repeat here too, I think ‘Goose’ is the standout. Not alone are they one of the best bands in Ireland at present as you mentioned, but the whole album is.bloody.free. FREE. Nobody has an excuse not to right click/save it.
Thanks very much. Your blog great by the way, really interesting stuff. (my cuz Kev put me on to it.)
The Cast of Cheers album is pure class and as you mentioned even better, it’s free from here: http://thecastofcheers.bandcamp.com/
