dis-tortion

Monday 19 May 2008


well well my week of fun is over. it really is easy to forget how fun things can get when you work everyday. riding around on quad bikes, watching aidan getting hit in the groin with a paintball, and shimmying to russ chimes were all legitimate and enjoyable elements to my fun week.

anyway, i chucked a bit of a midnight run last night- left perth at 1am and arrived in sydney at 7am just in time to get to work. planes are shit to sleep on so im f'ing tired.

{tired+work=long day}

something that brightened my day a little bit were some nuggets of nuggety goodness in our mailbox.

Cut Copy - Hearts on Fire (Midnight Juggernauts Remix)

this remix is a lot different to the other juggers mixes (like the dragonette one)- i think it sounds a lot more like their album (a lot more '''''cosmic'''''). i wasnt 100% sure about this the first time i listened to it but im sure it will grow.

you might know buffet libre from their (slightly dodgy) verbena selected mixes where they get djs and etc to select tracks to go on the mix.. well they have a new project where they get heaps of artists to remix their favourite old tracks (which will presumably be mixed together- hopefully their beatmatching skills have improved). These three tracks are some teaser tracks that will be featured on this mix..

Marietta - Destination Unknown (CSK OK Remix)

Men Without Hats - Where Do The Boys Go (Mr Miyagi Maximisation Version)

George Benson - Turn Your Love Around (Database Remix)

i never have been a massive CSK OK fan- i thought their sound was a bit too laptop producer-ish.. but this remix is wicked son.. as are the other tracks.

so... as an afterthought- i checked the mailbox first thing this morn and by the time the arvo had rolled around the goodness was gone.

lesson learnt= ration out goodness whilst at work.
