Best of 2011: Part 2 (Remixes)

PART TWO.. Back here with my favourite characteristic/thing/area of the music industry REMIXES!!


Anyone can put their creativity to the test and come up with some tasty beats/cuts/filters that put a different spin to the original track.. And its all time.


Yep everyone loves a delicious froffy remix and here are ten that stood out for me in the year that was 2011.


But first of all, REMIX OF THE YEAR..

*Plastic Plates has been an absolute standout for the year. He pushed out a large number of top quality remixes, not one was bad.. He is a freak.. It wasnt rare or odd to see his remixes being better than the actual original tracks.. Big Ups to this man. Cant wait for your 2012*


Rest are in no particular order



Download New Navy Zimbabwe (Flume Remix)
*Once again.. a big fuck you to commercial shit.. Flumes sound is so fucking amazing. Cant stop listening to this one*



Download Jeremy Glenn New Life (Perseus 'Summer of 83' Remix)
*So Chilled, so good, so 2pm poolside froffies*



Download Mark Ronson & The Business Intl Record Collection (Perseus Remix)
*#2 for this lad.. Unlike the other remixes in the EP he keeps all the lyrics and adds a touch of sunset*



Download Friendly Fires Hurting (Tensnake Remix)
*Im not sure this one has actually been released yet. This is only a 192.. but whatever. Makes this track so fun and dancey. Almost my number one for the year*



Download Foster The People Call It What You Want (Treasure Fingers Remix)
*Still keeps so much of the original track but more punchy.. Preparty in a chunnne*



Download Clubfeet Last Words (The C90s Remix)
*Dance, Dance, Dancier than the original, faster, and with those lyrics is a match made in heaven. This isnt their only good remix either. Suss the C90s*



Download Graz Edits Afrika (GRAZ edit) 3rd version
*uhhh Amazziinngg track. Dunno what the non-edit is like but this track is palm trees, smiles and bongos. I guarantee you no one knows this track, its brilliant*



Download Niki & The Dove Mother Protect (Goldroom Remix)
*Has never done a bad remix and this one was his best.. I heard this and frothed super hard when i was in bali, at the supper club, with The Twelves.. Holy shit.. 10s*



Download Poolside Do You Believe (Goldroom Remix)
*This was second best and still made the top 10.. The cutups in the pianos are something to idolise.. Goldroom you my man are the man*

Frothy Friday

Cowabunga. Here is a few frothy gems gathered over the past little week. Some old, some not so old. But all super fun songs that create lots of entertainment. Few Australian artists as well just getting the job done on the remixing frontier..


Cassian is and always will be putting on clinics, and as it seems Mitzi as well can do no wrong. Killaqueenz have been magically gifted with the sounds of DCUP, which turns the track into a mid-summer hangout and is very easy on the ears. Defiantly get you mittens on the Viceroy remix of Together, it is by far the best one around. And the shock inclusion of Lily Allen is a very nice remix by a man i have never heard, Lazaro Casanova - ahh best name ever.. But i dig it.


Hope your weekend will be as frothy as my night tonight at Friendly Fires, should be Alllll timeee.
