Enough time has passed through these pages that I again bring you the ever popular Best of the Remix series. This is volume 03. If you’d like to see the entire series displayed on one page just click here. I hope you enjoy the remixes, I’ll be out of town seeing a friend play a concert and catching up with old university mates of mine for the weekend. Anyway, I thought you all could enjoy some awesome remixes over the weekend and maybe throw a little dance party while you’re at it {although would this type of music really work at a house/flat party?}. I guess the only way to know is to throw a party, invite all the gorgeous ladies, and play some remixes nice and loud. Enjoy the music.

All the tracks in one zip file : here {zshare = left click}

mp3 : Jens Lekman - I’m Leaving You Because I Don’t Love You (Spoolwork Remix)
mp3 : Klaxons - Gravity’s Rainbow (Guns ‘N Bombs Freakout Remix)
mp3 : Kylie Minogue - 2 Hearts (DirtyHands ‘Freemassons RTA’ Radio Edit)
mp3 : Maroon 5 - This Love (Kanye West Remix)
mp3 : Michael Jackson - Billie Jean (Mathematikal Rerub)
mp3 : Milli Vanilli - Girl U Know It’s True (Tittsworth Remix)
mp3 : Moby - Porcelain - (ATOM’s Blue Underglaze Remix)
mp3 : Nirvana - Lounge Act (Z-Trip Remix)
mp3 : One Republic vs Bronski - Apology (Team9 Smalltown Remix)
mp3 : Rihanna - Umbrella (Seamus Haji & Paul Emanual Club Remix)
mp3 : Robyn - Be Mine (Ocelot Mthrfckrs Remix)
mp3 : Timbaland - Miscommunication (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
mp3 : Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion (Diplo’s Optimo Remix)

The tracks by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Michael Jackson, Moby, and One Republic vs Bronski are all quality. To be honest I didn’t think Timbaland’s remix of the One Republic song could be improved upon, but Team9 has proven otherwise. If you haven’t heard this remix that’s the first one you should download. The track by Robyn is also really fun to listen to, it just builds and builds and I could imagine it being a great song to hear at a rave or new moon party.

I talked this show up a bit last week after catching the series premiere. And all ridiculous high school drama aside these cats do play some good music. Or rather good music is played over their heads as they look forlornly off camera with that unfocused gaze that says more than a nine hour narration ever could. Here’s all the music that appears in last weeks episode. Hopefully in the second episode, which shows tonight on The CW, will include more pop and less hip hop. Or at least less bad hip hop. Or at least less Akon and Rihanna.

mp3 : Air - Photograph
mp3 : Akon - Don’t Matter
mp3 : Albert Hammond Jr. - Hard To Live In The City
mp3 : Amy Winehouse - Back To Black
mp3 : Angels & Airwaves - The Gift
mp3 : Cold War Kids - Hang Me Up To Dry
mp3 : Hanson - Go
mp3 : Justin Timberlake - What Goes Around Comes Around
mp3 : Peter Bjorn and John - Young Folks
mp3 : Rihanna - If It’s Lovin’ That You Want - Part 2 (Feat. Corey Gunz)
mp3 : Timbaland - The Way I Are (Feat. Keri Hilson and D.O.E.)
mp3 : Washington Social Diamond Club - Diamond Hipster Boy

I recommend the tracks by Air, Albert Hammond Jr., Amy Winehouse, and suprise, Hanson. The rest of the tracks are worth putting in the shows premier, but might not necessarily make the cut of your next iTunes mix.
