hmm, mid 00s postpunk indie disco x dubstep x 'dreadlock holiday'

sending this back to the kitchen

I am not going to tell you all what my summer jam is. Because it is deeply shameful and you will all laugh at me.

(I'm fairly certain it's bro-step but I'm just obsessed.)

yeah i knew you would love the skrillex/damian marley joint

curious as to what croatian boat riddims matt dc was going to post before the thread got yoinked

Ha ha, no I haven't lost my marbles that badly.

It's just someone took a giant farting wub bassline and stuck it under this stoned-sounding girly singer a la 90s cusp coffee table ambient (she sounds a lot like that Opus III track that Orbital sampled actually) with twinkly synths and noises that sound like a chainsaw bouncing around a rubber room and it's just such a bodged together set of sounds that shouldn't work at all, but it is just candy to my ears and I can't stop listening to it.

unfortunately while you were posting that i just decided i love the skrillex/damian marley joint

o_0 that is the worst thing in the history of music. I am going to have to listen to Joie Du Sang Des Etoiles five times in a row to get it out of my head.

(now I'm just waiting for a horrible-carcrash-awful-amazing bro-step remix of Joie Du Sang Des Etoiles, then my life will be complete.)

Listened to a big wedge of this last night but my mind was so blown by the Royal T/Cheryl tune that a lot of the subsequent tunes didn't hit the same heights. Love love love that Tifa track though.

I'm assuming the first few tracks here represent the gold that makes it worth sitting through Mistajam's non-discriminatory nightly frankenstep trudge then?

Enjoying these summery House vibes...

err probably wouldnt go that far, he does get the odd tasty bit first though sure. beyond that it's a good show in a uh, musicological sense...? ie he does discriminate, you just have crank the old negative capability to 11 and figure out how

glad you singled the tifa out, it's fantastic and i agree, better than nearly everything ever

It might be nearly six months old but it's still my summer jam 2012 and I'm surprised nobody else has posted it yet

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebjXsc0UjdQ

how quickly we forget :(

Also its not on Youtube (maybe somebody could "have a word") but the Funkystepz remix of Rihanna's "Birthday Cake" surely belongs here?

undoubtedly. "The Motto" too

One more for luck

Tim and r|t|c, are you not into this? kind of surprised it hasn't show up yet:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hk1uEn7bmpE

that Tifa is really good, but be sure to check out Alaine, both Waynes, and Voicemail on LoveBug too

omfg "man up", "away we go", "my ex-man", "sparks (wookie remix)" etc etc

thank you so very much for bringing these songs into my life

call me maybe
king louie - val venis
kylie - timebomb

REPEAT

god that cheryl cole royal-t remix is everything

i do like 'love di vibes' but it's a bit like vybz 'summertime' last year where it feels a little too prepack ubiquitous tokenistic to really clasp to my bosom the same way as other stuff; you would be right in pointing out i tend not to hold similarly on-the-nose hits from other genres up to that same standard however.

there is something slickly opportunistic about musicians from tropical countries putting out well-timed for foreign audiences summer hangout anthems. I definitely felt that way about 'summertime' (I mean, i'm not Jamaican, but I don't think you need to wait until summertime to have a pool party there), which is why 'ravin' was so obv superior. maybe it's because Pacific Northwest summers don't really start until July--it's 58 degrees F right now--that I'm not as bothered by 'love di vibes' and its transparent attempt to bottle summertime magic in a three-minute package.

HOW D'YOU THINK I FEEL WHEN YOU CALL MY NAME
YOU GOT ME CONFUSED BY THE WAY I'VE CHANGED
HOW D'YOU THINK I FEEL WHEN YOU CALL MY NAME, MY NAME
SAY MY NAME BABY!

what the hell does that lyric even mean she wants

doesn't matter
