Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

Well glad you guys are enjoying the picks and that is what is so amazing about music is there is just so much to hear, find and enjoy, especially in this digital age as it is so accessible.

I do enjoy the Arctic Monkey's and the spin off project The Last Shadow Puppets is interesting as well.

In that vain I have selected a Brit Indie track for today's song; Bombay Bicycle Club was named the Best New Band at the NME Awards last month (beating out The xx) and they have a pretty solid debut album in I Had the Blues But I Shook Them Loose and this is the first single from that disc, enjoy!

Bombay Bicycle Club - Always Like This

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

Well for today I have decided to feature a group that I am very into at the moment and the broad range of talent that they are putting out, and they have still not even released an album yet. Fenech Soler is a group coming out of the UK and what I really enjoy about them is the variety of stuff they are putting out, they have a few songs of their own, have collaborations and even remix other artists too.

Firstly a song by them: Fenech Soler - Stop And Stare



Next another song by them but this time remixed: Fenech Soler - Lies (Alex Metric Remix)



A song they have remixed: Marina And The Diamonds - Hollywood (Fenech Soler Remix)



Finally a collaboration involving them: Groove Armada - Paper Romance Feat. Fenech-Soler & SaintSavoiour

Well I really do not have much info to share on this one but found it in a compilation I have listened to a few times and I just love it!

Paper Romance is a good track, thx Blair

Paper Romance is a good track, thx Blair

I actually really like the new Groove Armada, different from Soundboy Rock, but still a great disc.

For today`s song I am going to do two versions of the same song, which are very different but I both like a lot!

Ellie Goulding is a very up and coming artist in the UK and has already got a few awards with only having just released her first album. She is not really my type of music but she does have a good voice and talent and that means she also has huge remix potential too and this is her second single.

Firstly we have a dubstep mix by Jakwob, whom I do not know too much about but really like this mix, especially when it drops around the minute mark!

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed (Jakwob Remix)



Second up we have a house version of the same song by Russ Chimes, who seems to be putting a strong effort to bringing the traditional house, disco house style back to the forefront. His mixtape Expressway Mix Part 1 is out for download if you like the way this sounds.

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

Well today I am going to bust out a classic, well a classic for me anyways! Ned's Atomic Dustbin was a band I got into in high school, back in the grunge days, I found them very interesting as a band that had two bass players, not a very common thing in most bands. Their debut album God Fodder was classic disc in that time and I still give it a listen every so often so I am going to feature a track from there!

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

I am not really sold on LMFAO, but they do appear in the upcoming documentary The Electro Wars which looks pretty interesting.

For my selection today I am going to go with the indie vibe and put up the latest Vampire Weekend single. I am not a massive fan of them but I do think they have some good tracks and this one happens to be my favorite from their second album, Contra, plus the video is quite entertaining.

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

Here is another Vampire Weekend song that's catchy as hell remixed by mike snow

Re: Blair's Song Of The Day Thread

That was not bad, but I do like the Miike Snow.

For today's song I am going to bust out a remix of the new Gorillaz. They have the new album Plastic Beach out now and I have listened to it a few times and still cannot decide if I like it or not. Anyway, here is a remix by Alex Metric that takes the house vibes up for the Gorillaz first single. I do enjoy Alex Metric's work and he appears on BBC Radio 1 the second Thursday of the month in the rotating In New DJs We Trust show.
