Leann Grimes

“Cats & Dogs in Idaho” feat. samples from “Cats & Dogs”
and “Coeur D’alene”, by The Head and the Heart

Check out this indie hip-hop remix project from Asheville, NC native Shane Conerty’s Leann Grimes.  Inspired and created with the music he found on music blogs, he crafts some pretty interesting arrangements with some pretty popular tracks from blog/mainstream a-listers like Deerhunter, The Strokes, CAKE, Dr. Dog, and The Morning Benders to name a few.  All the tracks are pretty up beat, short, and fun.

Careless Whisper Remix Contest

First chillwave artist to email me a good cover / remix of George Michael’s “Careless Whisper” gets a free banner ad at the top of the site for 2 weeks. I am so serious about this. I’ll even create the banner ad for you if you don’t have one. It can be instrumental, but it would be cooler if it wasn’t.

“Klutch” (Com Truise Remix)

It’s rare I meet someone I can effortlessly talk to about music.  I had that pleasure while hanging out with Brooklyn singer/performance artist Ana Lola Roman this weekend, she’s pretty awesome.  So is this remix of her vogue-esq track Klutch by her buddy Com Truise.  

Check out Klutch and the rest of Ana Lola Roman’s music on her Soundcloud page and follow her on Tumblr.

“Julius” (Painted Palms Remix)

This came out at the end of last summer but it’s amazing how great it sounds this summer! Its almost like not being brand new has no effect on it!  Crazy. 

Anyway, “Julius” is great way to get pumped for the weekend, cause it’s July and if you can not get pumped for a July weekend, then you may have some issues, in which case this track should still help.

“The Bay” (Clock Opera Remix)

First off, the original version of this track is awesome.  Secondly, this is a remix but it’s more like a complete re-imagining.  I love the chopped up verse melody as a hook.  That Knight Rider vibe is murder.   Check out Clock Opera, though they kinda sound nothing like this remix, which thirdly, is pretty rad.

Blue Jeans (Penguin Prison Remix)

Most remixes suck.  This remix, however, would not fall into that category.  I guess good music inspires better remixes… or it could be that Penguin Prision is just dope.  Either way, this track is awesome.

“One You Want (Dub Mix)”

This is rad.  Kick back and breathe in this little gem.  The original is pretty good as well…big surprise.

“Deadites” (FAKE Remix)

Last week I launched a new remix project called FAKE.  The name comes from the fact they are not traditional remixes, but more audio collage where the source stems are chopped up into new melodies and new rhythm parts.  Check out the most recent one I did for TEEEL’s “Deadites”.

Hit me up and let me know what you think!

Gold Morning Mend (TEEEL Remix)

Got this wonderful spring jam from TEEEL last week.  Rarely do I think remixes elevate the song past the original, but I think TEEEL nailed this.  Really great vibe and really great pocket, well done.  Slightly reminiscent of this smash from Filter years ago.

“Forget It” (Class Actress Remix)

Here is another fantastic remix that surfaced last week.  Dev Hynes aka Blood Orangeor as I can never forget, from Test Icicles…damn I loved that group, gets all neo-80’s out courtesy of Brooklyn’s Class Actress.

Love that laid back vibe that says…close your eyes and take another sip, it will all be just fine.

“Settle Down” (FAKE Remix)

Here is a chilled out reworking of Kimbra’s Settle Down which seems to convey the opposite of the original’s message…

“Dear Believer” (Timmy The Terror Remix)

I have been sitting on this smoothness for a bit now because I am such an absentee blogger, but it deserves to be up.
