Passion Pit - The Reeling




I'm always looking for artists who habitually cross lines and get my blood flowing. I have to thank SPZSHIP for this one...Passion Pit, "The Reeling". Music videos always have been a way for artists to captivate their audience and express sound visually. "The Reeling", nail's it, morphing pulsing synthesizers and keys into a picturesque harmony. I'm sick of the champagne, clouds of money, and gangster grillz we see far too much, so thank you Passion Pit. I first heard these cats on "Sleepyhead (Streetlab Mix)" from the Streetlab Remixes '08 album, finding myself continuously playing the track.

Passion Pit brings an euphoric and blissfully melancholic electro feel out of Cambridge, Massachusetts. They released Chunk of Change EP, in the fall of 2008. However, it was just a tease featuring a few songs. Be on the look out for their debut full length album, Manners, to drop May 19th (U.S.), on French Kiss Records.

Paul Devro Throws Down on Pacemaker



















Paul Devro, made this "Albino Ndebele Bellybutton Mix" on Pacemaker. The Mad Decent artist obviously knows what it is right now, blowing your mind and making you stomp your feet to this one. Using a tool that was given to him in India when there were no Cd’s to DJ from, he absolutely kills it.

"This thing is sick, you can do all the loop stuff like on cd players and the volume goes to 11! It’s like a dj ipod on future steroids. Hope you like the mix, its 18 tracks and its full of some of my favorite songs right now, Some UK Funky, New Afrojack, New Yank with added drums, Hoy without no Horns (!!!) and to end it off some never heard Britney Spears and Katy Perry Remixes," said Paul.

I'm not too keen on where he conjured up the title, but hey a good title is where it all starts. Listen for titillating rhythms and a heavy Spanish vibe. It's absolutely raging and you will immediately want to find a SPANISH MAMI and sweat allllllll night.
