DatA - Rapture (Edwin Van Cleef Remix)

I’ll make some album art if I have time.

I’m so disappointed I didn’t post this one sooner. This was emailed to me bout 2 weeks ago and I have been listening to it constantly. I assumed I had already posted it. It dawned on me yesterday that I hadn’t blogged about it yet when I tried to link a friend to it.

Edwin Van Cleef makes an awesome remix of DatA’s “Rapture”. It starts off as a dark, heavy percussioned track but then evolves into some awesome synthed out remix. Great transitions and the vocals fit it perfectly. Well done, Mr. Cleef. Sorry I didn’t post it sooner.

On a sorta related note- what’s up with musician’s capitalizing A’s in their name? (ie: SebastiAn and DatA) Does anyone know of any other bands that use weird uppercase letters?

diplo-remix The Black Ghosts - Repetition (Diplo Remix) // I never listened to The Black Ghosts. I think it may be because someone told me they were a start-up band from Simian and I already knew about SMD so I didn’t bother. I mean, how much Simian do I really need?

Regardless, Diplo has chosen to remix their track “Repitition”. It’s not the typical Diplo remix. It’s not all about big drums and claps. In fact, it sounds a little bit like the Soulwax remix of “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”. It’s certainly not the classic Diplo remixes/tracks that sound all tropical-like. His style has changed.

I kind of miss the old Diplo. Actually, I really miss the old Diplo. Don’t get me wrong. I still like the remixes and songs “Betty” and “Young Folks Pussy”, but sometimes I’m just in the mood for some classic baile funk “Diplo Rhythm” off Florida.

I guess I can only dream of a day when Diplo will make more albums that everyone steals instead of buying.

It’s still a good track. There’s a bit of crescendo to the end of the song. It’s good. Like it’s full of anticipation. Not much else I can say. Can’t compare it to the original as I haven’t heard it. Duh. Take a listen.

And while you’re at it, someone tell me what the story behind The Black Ghosts is. Are they any good?
