The new Klever, a remix of Hot by Big Gipp is tight. What took me back is that is shares a similar sound to distinctive MSTRKRFTs tone. This remix obviously veered away from his electronic ghetto tech dirty south sound that Klever has been known for. Refreshing sound from this producer.

Big Gipp - Hot (Klever Remix) 

So you want some electro crunk? OH SNAP!! does exactly that, his music is nothing more than good tunes to jam to… What else is there to say about a a guy rapping about being “too fat to be a hipster” … except maybe the word hipster is too frequently used and is just a shitty word hollow… I’m also Diggin’ the Hostage RMX of Bill Cosby Sweater by OH SNAP!!

The mix it tight and some of the colab/ft. of artists are revolutionary. For a full review check Pitchfork Media here.

I like the mixes and I also which I could make it to the HARD New Years Music Festival in LA. Check it here:

With one week of work left the anticipation of school is finally catching up to me. I am actually very excited to be heading back to Ottawa for school. This year will be busy, being my final year. I am however ready for the hectic schedules and busy nights. For a current look at our thesis project and blog please take the time to check out EmoCapsule.com.

LA is no longer happening. There are so many oppertunities available in Ottawa during the first week of September I just couldn’t miss them.

I am currently reading Wikinomics How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything by Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams. I was really interested when they started talking about the remix culture. They were referencing The Gray Album by Danger Mouse and a bunch of other projects. I am guessing that the Electro/House remix scene was a bit smaller than the hip-hop one they mentioned.

Here is some music…
Not all of these songs are remixes or mash-ups, there just good tunes!
