_remix: Zebra Katz x Dj Sliink – “Ima Read” feat. Njena Reddd Foxxx

For the past 3 or so weeks I’ve been trying to find out what remix of “Ima Read” Rick Owens used for his Fall 12 show which exposed Zebra Katz to the fashion conscious public. Turns out it’s DJ Sliink who remixed and cut it up to an infectious dance tune. It isn’t a complete makeover, but a few extra beats can take this minimal track a long way.

_Beach House – “Myth”

I’m not the biggest fan of Beach House. Not as much as before, at least. I went through a huge phase where all I listened to was Beach House for a month and I think I just got tired of them. Welllllll, they’ve released a new song called “Myth” last night and it’s a bit too early to tell but I think it’s one of my favorite tracks by them. Everyone else seems to think so too.

Their next album ‘Bloom’ is set to be released on May 15th. Download the mp3 for free:

_Crystal Castles x HEALTH – “Suffocation” (& Music Video)

It’s been a couple years since I’ve heard of any new releases from Crystal Castles. Yesterday, Crystal Castles released their new music video for “Suffocation”, and their friends HEALTH gave the song a proper remix. It’s darker, gothier, sexier. Download it:

_Portico Quartet – “Steepless” (Dogtanion remix)

A friend of mine posted Dogtanion’s remix of “Steepless” by Portico Quartet on facebook, both artists unknown to me. Being hungover and bored on a Saturday, I proceeded to listen to it, and I’m glad I did. The original is hauntingly beautiful as well.

 
Thanks Kara!
