Why, Why?

Start off with this. Then get the remix I'll post later:




Pretty cool sound huh? I'll return to that later.

So I have moved up to vail in a timely fashion. Unfortunately, not timely enough to be able to find easy work. But I've applied at so many places that I feel like something will turn up soon. I am also being pretty picky. I don't want to drive 15 minutes to places in Edwards. That seems pretty lame when I have the whole vail village within walking or free bus distance. We'll see what it comes to.

I'm also about to start taking roommate auditions. That should be fun. I wish colin would just move up here.

After I slang some more resumes today i'm going to check out the edwards skatepark and see how that is. The one in lionshead is really lame. There are cracks before all the stuff that you would want to do on street and the ramp stuff is a little intense cause i never do that type of stuff. We'll see.



Now to music. The song you have been listening to is catchy. Real catchy. There are basically two types of songs the RAC remixes. 1) Songs that are insanely catchy that will become super-songs after their golden mixers touch them (like The Worse It Gets). 2) Songs that are weird and indie that turn into strange dance jams. I'll give an example of that later.


So without any more wait, the

RAC remix to Boy by Ra Ra Riot
(just go to the rcrdlbl site so I don't get in trouble for re-posting too soon.)

I really love this jam. The little bells in the background are incredibly perfect. The strings are nice as well. And can you hear the back and forth downward arpeggio in the background at about 2:49? You know what that reminds me of? And it did the first time I noticed it last night... Treasure Mountain!. Anyone else play that? It was on my dad's color macintosh back in the day. God I loved that game. And theres another testiment to my useless ability to remember melodies and lyrics from stuff that I would never need again. Woot for wasted brain power.



So for a song that is weird and has been turned into a strange dance-jam? Let's go with this one:

Orlando Boom (RAC Mix) - Femme Generation

It's a weird one, but oddly enough, very danceable. You might enjoy it, you might not. I'm not making any promises.




And for something that is not RAC in the least, I'll post a song that was given to me by Kyle. Thanks homes!

Cracks (Flux Pavillion Remix) - Freestylers feat. Belle Humble

It's pretty mellow at the get-go but gets more intense quickly. It's dubby too. A real head-bobber.




For the last one, a mash-up done by Morgan Page (a new favorite on the dj scene):

I'll Never Dream I'm In Love - Kaskade vs. Alex Guadino

It's pretty intoxicating, though the "I'm in love I'm in love" gets a little repetitive. However, Becky Williams' voice is pretty incredible. (It is her right? The chick from Late Night Alumni?) You'll like the song if you like Kaskade or any vocal prog house stuff.


That's all for me today. Catch ya on the flipside.
