Like last week, I decided that this week's THREE TRACK THURSDAY will emphasize my favorite remixes of a certain artist. Last week's post on Madonna was quite the stir. I'm sure this one will be less exciting for everyone BUT me. I often love The Ting Tings. Ever since I heard a demo of Great DJ years ago, I have been excited for the simple indie pop rock that embodies their sound. To remix a band like that is not easy, and I think these three remixes are fantastic finds. The Retro/Grade remix had to be edited by yours truly, but the end product is stupendous. The Retro/Grade remix is the only one that really emphasizes the best part of the song: its Bronski Beat sampling (produced SO WELL by the glorious Calvin Harris). Enjoy!

NEW Ting Tings - We're Not The Same
Labels:
the ting tings
I am not sure how I feel about this one. I appreciate The Ting Tings. I really do. I just often feel like they could take more advantage of their talent... but that being said, I think this isn't bad at first listen, and I'll give it some more time. I do like the first single (though I have to admit that it didn't blow me away, by any means), Hands (posted previously). I'll put that down below, as well... just to be nice. See... I'm not a big dickhead, after all.

Fresh: NEW Ting Tings single 'Hands'
Labels:
the ting tings
The Ting Tings long awaited follow-up LP (with the delightfully dirty title Massage Kunst) is soon to be public, but in the meantime they have released this little gem, Hands. At first I didn't care much for the track, but now I have warmed up to it. I also attached an interesting remix that you may (or may not... but listen anyway) enjoy. I really think that The Ting Tings are talented and have fantastic presence for a two-piece act. So, take a listen, download, enjoy, play it at your party, get busy with it, and let me know what YOU think. (Click the down arrow to DL).
