The Virgins

What a year this has been. It’s almost over! Scary. Final exams are coming up and like I said before, it’s time for procrastination…aka, dance parties! So, I’ve compiled two mixtapes full of songs I’ve been loving lately. The first is for d-party fiends woop woop! The second is for when you actually feel like studying, relaxing, making origami.

Mixtape one: THE STORM

Mixtape two: THE CALM

M1 Playlist:

01 Black Kids – Hurricane Jane (The Twelves Remix)
02 The Hours – See The Light (Calvin Harris Remix)
03 Kanye West – Flashing Lights (High Contrast Remix)

I heard this during London Elektricity’s Essential Mix and it BLEW MY MIND. This EM is incredible and one of the best of the year so check it out!

04 Felix Da Housecat – Somethin’ 4 Porno!
05 Silicone Soul – Right On!
06 Deepest Blue – Give it away
07 The Doppler Effect – Beauty Hides In The Deep
08 T-Pain – I Can’t Believe It (Gods of Fashion Remix)
09 The Virgins – Rich Girls (Beatards Remix)
10 Friendly Fires – Paris (Aeroplane Remix)
11 Britney Spears – Phonography

So, I was one of those people frantically looking for a bootlegged version of Circus…Sue me! Her new album is full of dirty guilty pleasure pop…MMMMM it just sounds so good. =) This song = shakin’ booty all night long.

12 Yelle – Tristesse Joie
13 Soulwax – Compute
14 Jib Kidder – Windowdipper

And you thought Girl Talk was good…

15 Juiceboxxx – Thunder Jam 1
16 Juiceboxxx – Righteous Rage

Milwaukee has the hottest rap scene. Period. Give this guy a chance. He is nerdcore at it’s best and at first his lyrics and rhymes will throw you off and you end up laughing at him instead. But then after another listen you realise how effin’ awesome this dude is. The illest rhymes. The slickest beats. Infectioooooous! P.S. The album is only 8 bucks…buy it. It’s totally worth it! =)

M2 Playlist:

01 Santogold – I’m A Lady (Diplo Mix Ft Amanda Blank)
02 Kanye West – Street Lights

I. Love. This. Song. I think this is one of the best songs on 808s and Heartbreak. Sorry if you’re sick of Kanye hype, but it iiiiiis exciting! I really like the album and totally dig his use of taiko drums and autotune. But, I don’t think it’s better than his previous albums…yet.

03 Madvillain – Accordion
04 El Perro Del Mar – Party
05 Radiohead – Go Slowly
06 Trespassers William – Lie In The Sound
07 Tribalistas – E Voce
08 Manu Chao – Me Gustas Tú
09 Hot Chip – Playboy
10 Kraftwerk – Elektro Kardiogramm
11 The Knife – You Make Me Like Charity
12 Felix Da Housecat – Moviedisco
13 Modeselektor – The White Flash (Feat. Thom Yorke)
14 Misteur Valaire – Press 2
15 Quiet Village – Utopia
