since i kicked it down a notch last friday, ill kick it up two notches this friday. today features one of my favorite tracks from the most recent peter bjorn and john album “living thing”, entitled “it dont move me”. i just never could get into “nothing to worry about” with all the kids screaming in the beginning, but this song does really hits the spot. and how do you take a great song and make it even better? mix in one of my favorite new acts of the year, miike snow, to remix the song. not only is their album “animal” one of my favorites of the year, but theyve also put out two of my favorite remixes of the year, the other of course being their incredible vampire weekend remix, which im going to post again below because i like it just that much.
the remix for “it dont move me”, which i think tkop first told me about a few months back, is very different than the vampire weekend mix. its signature miike snow moments are not always as obvious in this one, but when they hit, they hit hard. and once you get to the breakdown in the third minute of the song, fuggedabatit. this remix is very reminiscent of a live miike snow song. get through the song and just when youve got the crowd, break into a multi-minute electronic jam.
peter bjorn and john – it dont move me (miike snow remix)

vampire weekend – the kids dont stand a chance (miike snow remix)
Jam. Ming.

Just thought I’d let you know, since you designed your site so nicely, than you need to copyedit your content. I’d start with the about section. It’ll make you come across a little more professional.
Cheers.

interesting that matt critiqued your copy edit skills – he probably should’ve given his comment a “once over” before submitting… additionally, as you said, it’s a freaking music blog… tough to make people happy these days, eh?
digging the site, my man. see ya at Phoenix on 12/8.
