Yessssss Mr Wilkis is back in action; working his magic to reimagine the Yeasayer’s Ambling Alp. He gives it a fresh spit’n polish choosing to slough off the excess and crack open the essential beats. It is, as always, a spectacularly well done remix.
Ambling Alp (Alan Wilkis remix)
Team Teamwork
Mash ups are a total guilty pleasure. The pleasure I take from effortlessly identifying samples that have been chopped up and reconfigured is fairly well know among my friends. Which is why this edition of Team Teamwork’s Vinyl Fantasy landed in my in box multiple times in the last week or so. Overflowing with dope-tastic tracks it was just the fix I didn’t know I was jonesin for. While there has been a spot of controversy around this little project I still thought it worth sharing with you all. So click the link

This Cali-cago duo have been incredibly busy smashing all sorts of business together crafting some fairly delicious mash ups. Recently they completed their Versus Mixtape; 33 tracks of assorted musical rearrangements, all of them fantastic. This mixtape will be my gym soundtrack as I try to snap myself out of the standard midwinter sloth status. They have even tackled that ridiculous Owl City song and manage to make it rather enjoyable, a sign of a true skill.
