View ArticleMarvin Gaye –“Ain’t That Peculiar” (Oddisee Remix)
Oddisee’s choice to remix Marvin Gaye is more than peculiar. Given a thousand years, no one else but Oddisee could have given this to us. Why remix 1965 Marvin? Where did this come from? It came from a...

View ArticleJamie Grind –“Time After Time” and “Dilate” remixes make a kid wanna download
This is why remixing is an artform in itself. I heard Leeds producer Jamie Grind‘s “Time After Time” remix way before I heard Angel‘s original, and I had fun judging Angel by his lyrics. In the...
View ArticleThe Dream f. Casha –“Used To Be (Slava Club Mix)” makes the grade
Tell you what. Without Slava’s monster 808 bass drum, we would have skipped this track. The Brooklyn via Moscow producer brought trouble on this remix. Without him, we definitely wouldn’t have included...

The 20 year old flexes wise techno technique. This remix completely veers away from the original by Phon.o, which is always preferable. I don’t want to hear the backbone of another song in a remix. I...
