I know that I post a remix just about every day, but here are a few nice ones that have turned up in the old inbox recently.

The first is the Acid Washed remix of “Acapella” by Kelis, and it kind of feels like this is the way the song was meant to be heard. A track that was already made for the dance floor is only accentuated by this French duo. The beats are heavier and the fantastic chord progressions in that chorus are pumped up too. Good stuff. But I wouldn’t expect anything less from the French.

Up next, we have another track from the PEACE Compilation that I talked about here a few weeks back. This one is a remix of The Antlers’ “Two” by Buffetlibre. It’s an interesting take on a song that’s totally sad but still sounds sort of happy, namely because it sounds even happier in this remix. Since I love conflict, it works out quite well for me. And don’t forget to check out the PEACE Compilation, tons of songs from all over the world, yours with a contribution to Amnesty International.

It is no secret that I am infatuated with the music of Gui Boratto so I was pretty happy to see this one turn up. It’s a remix of “Estupendo” by Arsenal and I think it works really well with Gui’s subdued fantasticness.

And last but certainly not least, “Momma’s Place” by Roisin Murphy has been remixed by Beaumont. Murphy is one of those cats that I hear about over and over but I’ve never actually heard one of her tunes until now. When compared to the original, I like that this version is really much brighter (aka synthier).
