Friday Bangers (week 33)

Yay! We are finally back with some action on the blog and this means friday bangers for your ears!

Canadian Tiga released his 2nd album, “Ciao!” in April 2009. From this album we find “What You Need”, a track that got remixed about a month ago by Chicago-based Midnight Conspiracy. They gave the mix a fitting title: “Summer of ’87 Remix”. It’s so 80′s, you might even break a sweat from moving your feed to the rhythm!

Moving 10 years forward in time we hit the classic “Brimful of Asha” by British Cornershop. Back then it was a major hit, remixed by Fatboy Slim among others. HeroesOfTheParty killed the waiting time for Toy Story 3 by doing this great remix.

Another classic hit is the Beastie Boys‘ “Sabotage”. Alex Metric who did the amazing “Stylo” remix had a take on this track and it turned out pretty good. A lot of distortion is on the way!

Youngest son of reggae king Bob Marley, Damian Marley worked together with hip-hopper Nas on this next track. Normally I’m not into hip-hop at all, but this track reminds me a bit more of dancehall and reggae than hip-hop. And the fact that Foamo remixed it was an eyeopener.

Last track this friday is a danish one! Nabiha had a huge radio hit with the track “Deep Sleep” so of course it was only a matter of time before someone did a club remix of this. This someone is British Bitrocka who is know for his remixes of Kylie Minogue and Sugarbabes. As a bonus info Nabiha was already discovered in 2006 and released tracks under the alias Tiger Lily.
