[Fresh] Daft Punk – Emphazed

Fake or not fake…..that is the question. To be completely honest it doesn’t matter right now, but this shows some light at the end of the tunnel. This could be off their upcoming 2013 album, we’re not sure yet; nonetheless it’s a funky tune featuring an infectious melody with flawless pitch bends on catchy and uplifting chords. Whether this is Daft Punk or not, is up to you. Cheers.

Remixes:

Cassettes Won’t Listen (NYC DJ/Producer Jason Drake) has been recording to the likes of MTV and Spin Magazine in recent years and even had time to make a cameo on NBC’s “Chuck.” His remix of Daft Punk’s “Derezzed” could be considered the mellow and smoother of the many remixes available of this track. Slightly ambient in sound, this would work great for a downtempo or afterhours vibe. The subtle dubstep in the middle of the track is a very nice surprise.

’Derezzed (Cassettes Won’t Listen remix)’

Los Angeles brothers Josh and Matt David (P.K.A. Breakdown) have been remixing and producing (two tracks of which peaked at #2 on Beatport’s Electro House charts) since 2008. They didn’t just ‘breakdown’ their own version of “Derezzed,” they brought the house down while they were at it. Of all of the remixes of this track, this works best as the big room banger, rich with a consistent hard beat coupled with a major banging sound at the 2:38 mark.

[Games] Dj Hero Sountrack

djhero

If you are a music fan, and by reading this you probably already are one, then you should be familiar with the plethora of musical/timing games, like Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Band Hero, and now DJ Hero just to name a few. To celebrate the release of Dj Hero we put together a small sample playlist of some of the best songs we found on the game’s soundtrack, to give you a taste of what you can expect. The game track list is mostly compromised of good quality mash-ups, combining two tracks to try to form a distinct experience for the player. Although these tracks were some of the best we found, we also noticed many mediocre ones that only seem to be enjoyable when you are playing the game but otherwise do not have much playback value.


The game is definitely worth checking out.
