I had something else planned for today’s post, but a quick trip through my inbox reorganized my priorities. I got an email about Tonedeff’s reworking of Kanye’s recent song Love Lockdown. I recently posted a slew of the best of the first round of remixes for this song and, to be honest, most of them were a dime a dozen ho-hum sort of vanilla. If these two remixes, one by Tonedeff and one by Chew Fu, are a sign of the remixes yet to come then we should all get excited. Both of these tracks are excellent. Listening to the rap section that closes out the song should give you goosebumps, or at least wake you up.

mp3 : Tonedeff - Warden (Love Lockdown Remix) (Chew Fu House Remix)
Both of these tracks should be listened to immediately. Especially if you’re stuck at work and sick of listening to the boring radio station your fellow cube dwellers love.

Let’s be honest here for a minute. Who doesn’t love Kanye West? Ok, other than photogs, camera operators at LAX, TMZ, and other rappers who try to release albums on the same day as Kanye; who doesn’t love Kanye West? Even though we’d all love to hate this aggressive, megalomaniacal trendsetter, there’s something about his smooth rhymes and his blatantly obvious arrogance that draws the world back to him each and every time.
Recently Kanye has been lighting up blogs, the general interwebs, and most every airwave with his new single Love Lockdown. He’s also gotten some love from some quick on the draw remix kids the world over. Because today is Monday, and we’re all hating that fact that yet another weekend has drawn to a close, I thought I would throw up the best remixes I’ve heard yet of Love Lockdown. Granted, many of the heavy hitters in the remix world have yet to weigh in on this track {and we all know they will}, but these are the best of what’s come first.
All the remixes in one zip file : here {zshare = left click}
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Aerotronic Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Cenzo Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Chew Fu Small Room Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Flufftronix Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Jake Troth Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Jin Remix)
mp3 : Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Prince William Remix)
The first five tracks are pretty much your stereotypical remixes. They’re each slightly differnt from each other, yet the all maintain just enough of the original track to be recognizeable {and ultimately dance beat laden}. I’m not entire sure but the Flufftronix Remix might be my favorite right now. The last two tracks are a bit differnt than the standard issue remix as they feature some talented MC’s rhyming over the intstrumental portions of the track. Both the Jin Remix and Prince William Remix are of the must hear it now variety.
