New Music: Basement Jaxx - Romeo (DivKid 'Loves Juliet' Remix)

I know they're the old men of club/house music now and not the cool, 'it' group any more, but I'm still a MAJOR fan of the first two Basement Jaxx albums. Here's a remix (remake?) of their first big crossover (at least in the UK) radio record, "Romeo":

More music from the ReligionDJs

Boys Noize - Avalanche ( Religion Remix ) by religiondjs
Religion - Miracles by religiondjs
Gonna switch it up to some more clubby-electronic sh-t as people (like me) get ready to go out. I featured these guys last week but they have a ton of other great remixes. One of my favorite modern house records is Basement Jaxx's 'bootleg' remix of their single, "Red Alert" titled "Miracles Keep On Playin'" (sampling the Jackson Sisters' "I Believe in Miracles"). This samples the same record and could have come off as a poor remake attempt but it's pretty good in its own right!

New Remixes from Paul Weller's Wake Up The Nation Album

Slight musical detour to close out the night...
At the risk of dating myself, I grew up on this man's music from his first band, The Jam (google them) up to his solo music today. Before I got into hip hop, his fixation as a mod with both classic 60's and contemporary black music introduced me to many artists from Curtis Mayfield to the Chi-Lites. Some of his recent solo music has sounded kind of complacent and betrayed his youthful pledge to never become staid artistically like his former musical heroes, Pete Townsned and Eric Clapton but these remixes of tracks from his forthcoming new album, Wake Up The Nation suggest he's once again become open to current musical sounds like he was during his Jam and Style Council days. Check the plug:
"Paul Weller releases his tenth studio solo album Wake Up The Nation on April 19th on Island Records.
After an unparalleled career, characterised by constant musical experimentation, we should be used to Paul Weller's relentless desire to chop and change his musical pack. But after the triumphant, Brit-bagging success of 22 Dreams (his third solo number one) Wake Up The Nation album sees rock's most iconic songwriter come up trumps once more.
Lean, mean and as uncompromisingly focused as it's maker, Wake Up The Nation also brings Paul Weller full circle: twenty-eight years on from The Jam's split, two tracks feature the former bassist Bruce Foxton. The album also sees contributions from My Bloody Valentine's Kevin Shields, The Move's Bev Bevan and legendary session drummer Clem Cattini.
Passion, progression, and, as ever, spine-tingling rock'n'roll -Paul Weller has, yet again delivered the perfect soundtrack as we embark on a new decade."

Another DJ mix of club music. Y'all dig these joints? I'm thinking of making that the focus of weekend posts along with any key joints I may miss during the week then doing mostly soul, rare groove, jazz and other mellow-type joints for Sunday posts. Make sense?

New music: Audio Bullys - Only Man (Jakwob remix)

I used to love these dudes when they were pioneering 'hooligan house' music with tracks like "We Don't Care" which I used to cane when I was DJing regulalrly and could get away with playing stuff beyond Top 40 hip hop and R&B. Not sure about this new one though:

The Connoisseurs of Culture present The Mix Mason - Shameless Self Promotion mix

The Mix Mason :: Shameless Self Promotion by mixmason Alt. links: sendspace
A 'Bangin' Live Promo Mix' indeed...
I've supported this dude before (see HERE and HERE) and now I'm proud to premiere The Mix Mason's latest mix project in conjunction with Benhameen and Stone under the Connoisseurs of Culture banner.
Its not even technically an 'official' mix, just something he put together as a calling card to send around to booking agents but its FIYA still and needs to be shared properly! With his trademark blend of hip hop, electro, house, bmore and other current club sounds, Mason is spinning all the sounds that are hot in the clubs nowadays but its his selection and mixing skills, which are ridiculous, that set him apart. Mark my words, you're gonna be hearing a lot about and from this kid in the future.
Here he is on the mix:
"Its a 100%-live mix to showcase my abilities, flavor, and style. No drops, editing, mastering, or cleaning-up. Thanks for listening."
Track listing:

And, in case you missed it, check out his Freshly Picked Nov. 2009 mix HERE. [soundcloud link]
