lights over ithaca

A guest post by the former Blerf etc. blogger, Matt. Although he doesn't know yet that I am posting this.

"Ladies,

I would love to take credit for this on a cd to Em or something but I'd be doing an injustice to the guy who put it together.  A kid who lived in my house last year, [Stephen P], started mixing recently and he put the tracks below together.  It's downright epic.  Anyway, figured the three of you might like it."

Dancing With The Dj by thegreatsaltsea

It's just so damn happy.

Dancing With The Dj (Acoustic Campfire Version) by The Knocks

Hella awesome what they did with this version. Just makes you feel like you're sitting around a bonfire on a cold beach in  NorCal. That's why I said "Hella."

Klaxons - Echoes (Steve Aoki Remix) by EssysWorld

Remember Steve Aoki from the Kid Cudi, Pursuit of Happiness remix? I feel like he really knows how to put in good positive energy. Takes a little patience to get into it, but there is a pleasant surprise at 2:16...

A week or so back Chrysan posted the original Kanye song and awesome music video. If you hadn't heard it already, the Pretty Lights remix is also worth a listen.

Kanye West - All Of The Lights Remix (Pretty Lights) by The Untz

This is why I'll love Thom Yorke forever. You can buy Radiohead's new album online at http://www.thekingoflimbs.com/. My personal favorites on The King of Limbs are Codex, Lotus Flower, and Little by Little.

I've been in a weird funky groove lately. This remix is kind of absurd and matches my mood perfectly. Mix in some Barbara Streisand Duck sauce: Prime walking-to-class music.

Ballers Believe In C.R.E.A.M (Wu-Tang Clan vs Simian Mobile Disco vs Lil Troy) - Sorry For Partying by [ m e n t a l ]


Here's the original:

I Believe - Simian Mobile Disco by Two Hype Feet

Lupe concert tickets go on sale today!!!!



I think I just fell in love. Adding this amazing feelgood song to my "walking to class" playlist now...

Paris Tokyo TKRMX [lupe fiasco + skymarshall arts] by TKRMX

There was a point in time when I listened to Paris, Tokyo on repeat for days on end. And I really believed that Lupe & I would go to sleep in Paris, wake up in Tokyo, have a dream in New Orleans and fall in love in Chicago...

I see you judging.

Pretty well publicized already, but nonetheless, in case you haven't yet seen it: Kanye's All of the Lights video. I find it amusing they actually had to feature a health warning in the beginning.

Lykke Li - Paris Blue (Death To The Throne Remix) by Hypetrak

I am taking this straight from the top of Hypem's popular list because:

1) I'm lazy.
2) I like it.
3) I'm sitting in the corner of Starbucks studying a textbook of dirty pictures for my porn paper and that is enough legitimation that I am unconventional and still my own person.

Kid Cudi- Cudi Zone (KillaGraham Remix) by ANPLAYBOYS.blogspot.com

With 7 less credits than last semester, I haven't had as much need to procrastinate. The result is fewer blog posts. But alas, the time comes again. Starting a five-page paper on porn is harder than I thought.

I've been craving a concert like none other and stumbled across this sick line-up coming into the Haunt next Sunday night. Here are a few of the most interesting selections... Possible in-person review by yours truly.



Two Fresh



Mux Mool

Ending on a sweet note with the Skatalites :)

I feel like the Ithaca music scene is definitely underrated.

My mind is absolutely blown. Shout out to the person who recommended this one to me.

Alex Metric & Steve Angello - Open Your Eyes by theinsound

Can't say I to listen to Skrillex all that much, but I like what he did with this song.

Cinema (Skrillex Remix) by Fresh On Campus

 

Not-very-techno-Sunday? Either way, it's catchy and puts me in a good mood.

Fader (Adam Freeland Remix) - Temper Trap by lightsoverithacany


And here's the original.

Awkward Roomies is snatching your people up.

This goes out to all the ladies!

Nujabes - Lady Brown ( feat. Cise Starr From Cyne ) by ModernFusion

Nothing like a subtle remix to make you re-appreciate an old song.

Staring At The Sun (Digital Time Remix) by just_ice
