Remixes to Ride Dirty to

Just giving a little insight into what's hot on my list right now. I'm a total sucker for remixes and mashups. But it's because i'm convinced that just because a song has been released as a final product, doesn't mean it shouldn't be fiddled with or taken to a new perspective. On that note, I've got 3 sweet remixes or mash-ups that remind me what life is like in colour.

Dntel - (This Is) The Dream Of Evan And Chan (Safety Scissors Spilled My Drink Mix Featuring Erlend Øye)

Feist - 1234 (Van She Technologic remix)

The Knife vs Ratatat - We Share Our Mother's Health

and then comes this other song featured in the film Shortbus. a candy coated song about riding dirty.

Jay Brannan - Soda Shop

IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A SCISSOR

so, great things happen when the ipod is on shuffle. tripped over this beaut, in the meantime. i had the second vocalist narrowed down to either bobby birdman, or erlend oye. Turns out, it's our buddy erlend. Have a listen

Safety Scissors (feat. Erlend Øye) - Sunlight's on the other side

and another band i hadn't heard of until recently from my boy, matt. This is a beautiful remix of a song by the band Dear and the Headlights.

Dear and the Headlights - It's Gettin' Easy (Joy E Remix)

enjØye.
