Random music goodness! Ah, a very busy week. I was not able to post as many songs as I was planning this week… which makes this Random Music Fridays my outlet for what I was holding back this week.
Electronic/RemixesWe start of with a “Super Mix” from a very talented DJ that goes by the name of Akilles. I had a chance to talk to him about his new remix/mashup “In For the Kill”. This is what he had to say:
“it’s actually a mash of 3 different remixes of La Roux’s hit “In For the Kill”. It starts off with Lifelike’s remix against Clash the Disko Kids and Ming’s ‘Lo-fi 1 AM’ mix and then midway through Last Japan’s Skream re-edit bass heavy monster crashes the party. I have always wondered why people don’t put together all the good remixes of a particular song, because each one has its unique attributes. This way it’s like a supermix, you get the collective genius of a couple of great producers all rolled into one song. Kinda like killing many birds with one stone huh?”
Kind of like killing many birds with one stone??? This is more like killing a population of birds with one machine gun!! The remix is totally so dope.

Electroacoustic
Orlando, the city I live in and the very title of this beutiful song by Polynya. A mellow electronic song unlike anything I have heard of before. I cant quite describe the feeling I get with the soothing high vocals in an electroacoustic environment that at times, its disguised unorgnized melodies suprisingly produce the richest harmonies. Polynya is an indie/electronic/concrete band from Chapel Hill, NC USA that just released their new album Crop Rotation available at Amazon and iTunes
