rise & moonshine: Kelis goes country (disco)

I am both highly amused and mortified by this remix. Keljet, one of the most talented remixers in the world, takes a song that has been remixed into club nauseam, and makes a cowboy disco rework of Calvin Harris's Bounce. Because, you know, Kelis is such a cracker.

I cannot help but put it on loop and laugh my ass into a frenzy. Well, I personally would not prefer a frenzy around my ass, but I definitely want this song to keep playing... so I may have to choose between the two. But, for now, FRENZY IT IS! Enjoy!


weekenditty: "The President (Keljet remix)" - Snow Patrol

Once again, Keljet is workin' my shit. They are just a talented outfit who repeatedly makes me dance, and then continues to throw chill-pop that is second to none. WTF?! Why aren't they HUGE?! They mix electro and nü disco in a style all their own. Repeatedly they've made acts such as Adele, Scissor Sisters, Wynter Gordon, Mike Posner, The XX, LCD Soundsystem, The Temper Trap, Passion Pit and Coldplay (check the Keljet tab if you don't believe me) even better than their original tracks... and now they do so with a track from the new Snow Patrol Record, The President, which dropped this past Tuesday. Indulge:

NEW Keljet remix! (of Wynter Gordon)...

Remember that time I said I wanted to poop on Wynter Gordon's face? Well, I stand by that... BUUUUT, I do enjoy this remix by the flawless Keljet. Every single damned remix has been awesome. God bless fucking Scandinavia!


remix monday: two door cinema club invades your jogpod

Two Door Cinema Club is an act to which (or whom, rather) I've slowly become attracted. From Northern Ireland, they have made a quick mark on the Euro Alt/Rock Indie scene with a sound that is delightfully familiar, without boring the hell out of its audience. Pop-heavy, but not rotund, they show signs of great promise for a band that has been together only three years. Keljet has been mentioned a few times on here before. Once again, they have worked some fantastic magic here with what is to be Two Door Cinema Club's next single, What You Know. This will be one of those moments, I'm sure, where the remix actually makes me like the original track more that I would have otherwise. Additionally, the remixed song becomes addictive much the way that its band has: it is pure without simplicity and challenging without becoming arduous. Well done. Oh, and I definitely recommend this song to start your jogging mix. No joke.

remix monday: adele gets danceable

Keljet, who did a hell of a remix of Any Which Way, by Scissor Sisters, returns to make a gem out of this Adele track. Definitely check this one out. I love it, and it has definitely made me like Adele a great deal more. Sing it out, woman! God I dig this track... I don't know why, either. I figure maybe it makes the deeply-rooted soulful angry bitch inside me bawl out like a retarded siren.

The song, by the way, Rolling In The Deep, is the first single off Adele's new album, 21, which hits stores February 22, 2011. I think it might just be great. Who knows? I don't really care... I just love this remix. Big THUMBS UP to Keljet. This is the second remix I've heard by Keljet... and the 2nd one I love. Kudos y'all! All I really know about Keljet is that it's a duo from Nijmegen, Netherlands, who create some proper shit. Hooray REMIX MONDAY!
