Apollo Nove, Brad vs. Mortoray, Ms. Vybe

Just wrapped up some new remixes. These are also posted over on
ccmixter.

Apollo Nove is a Brazilian songwriter and producer, whose tracks I remixed for the Crammed contest on ccmixter. I stuck to entirely his original source tracks for my remix "Apollo's Creed"

I also put together a new mashup that features most of the original source music for Brad Suck's "Making Me Nervous" but instead of Brad's vocal track I swapped it for this death metal stream-of-consciousness vocal track by Mortoray. So instead of making me nervous, it's making me angry.

Finally, i've got another remix by Ms Vybe, you know it Sucks4u. enjoy.

Remix me

I offered up the source tracks for my Jack Shite song "Naked on the Meach" over on Remixfight! You can download the individual source tracks from my song, make a new version, make a completely different song, slice them up, go crazy with them. then, hopefully, you'll send your new mix in to remixfight for all the world to hear.

Stronger Than Dirt

New remix going up over on Remixfight! I took Fluffy Porcupine's "Stronger Than" and tried to trance it up, throwing a long panning echo on the vocals, and throwing a double filter on the synth to give it a wah guitar sound. Should be up soon, but here's a sneak peek.

More from the mixter

I've been spending a fair amount of time lately over on ccmixter, mostly because i think it's one of the best resources for open source music on the internet, and it's got a real cool community of like minded people. I've taken some of their source and worked up some new remixes with a number of artists there.

Slamlord gets things going, featuring vocals by Teru, with lo tag blanco kicking in some fine horn, beats, and synth tracks, and Lisa Rein bringing her excellent backing vocals. this was fun to do.

Strange Little Sunrise is a little mashup i threw together featuring the vocal work of Diane Jessurun with some of Future Boy's source tracks from "Strange Little World".

I was trying to go theatrical with Choose Valsinha which features a nice track by Gerador Zero with an a cappella vocal track by Ran Dumb Dots.

Some New Remixes

I've got a bunch of new remixes I've done lately, that are also posted over on cc mixter. I figured I'd post them here too. Check them out, share them, enjoy.

First one features an a cappella vocal track from cc mixter artist Shagrugge:

Advertise the Subliminal (Shagrugge remixed)

Next is a Brad Sucks mashup with cc mixter artist Dr. Concoction doing the rap:

Gimme a Minute (Dr. Concoction vs. Brad Sucks mashup)

here's another remix I did for the Fort Minor remix contest:

Remember the Other Name (Fort Minor remixed)

Finally we have a remix of Colin Mutchler, another cc mixter contributor.

The Blue Ocean (Colin Mutchler remixed)

Remember My Name

I submitted a remix to the Fort Minor Remix Contest that's going on right now over on ccmixter. I didn't use any of the original beats and instead opted for my own. from the original source, i used the strings (most of them) and the vocal track. You can find my track here. Give it a spin.

A Little More News

I got news from my friend Dr. Kongbalong that my Future Boy remix was one of the select few to make his follow-up EP to his excellent "A Maze of Death" CD. Check it out on his website. I also gave Ms. Vybe another flip, giving her "A Little More Sunshine".

I've also got a remix of Fort Minor's "Remember The Name", which I'll be submitting for a contest on cc mixter. I'll post it up next week sometime after I submit it.

The Buddha Vandana remix

Another new remix over on Remixfight! It's a remix of a track called "Voice of the People" by The Snyder Conglomerate, a local slug from the Cruz. Most of my remix is made up from his original source, and I added another GWB sample I had leftover from fight 10. I also threw it for a figurative loop by adding a buddhist chant track I found. “Buddha Vandana - Homage to the Buddha” recited by Venerable Indaratana Maha Thera.

Brush Your Teeth

New remix over on Remixfight! It's the Kompressor classic Brush Your Teeth. I tried to use the eggshakers for brushing effects.

Mustang

I've got a remix of Ms. Vybe's M-U-S-T-A-N-G over on Remixfight!. It's not too late to go show me some love. At least go check out the others. I especially like the remix by Rinky Dink.

Monogomous

New mashup featuring the fine talents of DJ Lang doing the wicked flow and Future Boy kicking in the oohs and ahhs. I was monogomous, and now it's me, you, and him.

Score

I got the highest form of flattery for me recently when I was asked to contribute one of my remixes to a movie soundtrack. Some independent film called "Gypsy Feet", being filmed in Dubai of all places. It's my remix of Brad Sucks "Overreacting"

I'm pretty sure brad's given his consent as he asked me about it.

Making My Africa

I did another mashup today, which features P. Mac, a rapper from ccmixter and my old buddy Brad Sucks, whose music basically provides the backing track. I used an acapella from P. Mac called "Africa" and the source music from Brad's "Making Me Nervous" and came up with "Making My Africa". Enjoy.

Happy New Year

Well, things are looking a bit grim on the remix horizon lately. I found out the Beastie Boys aren't going to be releasing their weekly acapellas to feed my acrapella jones, so that project may go on hiatus for awhile. 21 remixes is pretty good though, so i'm not complaining by any means, but i'll miss them. I've got at least one more i'm about half way done with, and there are still a couple that are released which I haven't done. It might be a good time for a beastie break though.

I also found out remixfight is going through a flux state server change thing, which might affect a couple remixes i've done lately so i'm just going to post them here and say happy new year and enjoy the latest remixes i've done. The first is by Mostly Harmless and is appropriately named "The Vishnu Recyle", which features the talents of a couple guys named Puce and Plat. The second remix is something I did as part of some bigger ongoing project which I think might still be happening, but I'm pretty clueless about this one. I know it's being organized by some guy named Aaron Ackerson. I'm not clueless at all about the mix I did for it, which I think turned out pretty good. The mix is called "10 Pounds of Love".

I also remixed a track by DJ Lang, which features a rap artist named J. Gomes. I just decided to name the remix after him as I admired his braggadacio and felt he earned it. You can check out "J. Gomes" below.

Seasons Remixes

I liked the Ms. Vybe remix I did so much I did another. This time, I took a vocal track she did called "Runnin My Mouth" and turned it into "Could You Shut Your Mouth?"

I also added a new Beasties remix to the acrapella page. A little "Body Groovin" to put some bump in your holiday grind. Enjoy.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Backing up Miz Vybe

I took an acapella track called "Emcee One" by an artist named Ms. Vybe that I picked up from ccmixter.org and added a backing mix to it. I thought it was a pretty tight track she did.

Brainpipe

New Remixfight! means another new remix by yours truly. Brainpipe is a side project of Starfinger and Heuristics Inc, a couple other songfighters whose stuff i've individually remixed before. Cool tune and a fun one to remix. Mine's kind of dancey, like something you might hear in a disco in idaho somewhere, if such a place was to actually exist.

I Love it When You Spazz Out All Alone

In Stereo. Enjoy.

It's Just a Brouhaha

Well. That's all it is.

My Margarita

The latest Remixfight features Chris Burleson, a pretty talented recording artist. I've got a new remix over there. Go check them out and pick your fave. Lots of good stuff.

And if that wasn't enough, I added a new Beasties remix on the Acrapella page.
