Damn, a month in between posts, my apologies. Let me make it up to you with this new Aeroplane remix of Chromeo’s latest funk odyssey. It’s a classic Chromeo joint and Aeroplane’s reworking is extra smooth, easily better than anything on the We Can’t Fly LP.
Chromeo – Don’t Turn The Lights On (Aeroplane Remix)
So this is something I’ve been meaning to do for a while now. Is it a podcast? Is it a mixtape? I’m not entirely sure, which, yep, is like me. And the name? Hypercast? Yeah I’ll probably get over that pretty quickly.
But the point is, I’ve always wanted to something like this. I’m always making mixtapes. Even if they don’t have a recipient, I’ll be selecting and sequencing every week. So as Hyperbole is all shiny and new, this is the perfect place to start posting some mixtapes.
As an idea of what to expect, please know that although they’re ‘mixed’, they’re by no means expertly mixed. I don’t have those kind of skills. It’s just about the tunes anyway. So every now and then I’ll be pushing out a new tape of jams, young and old, that I am buzzing about. Here’s the first batch.
Midnight Juggernauts – Virago Reprise (Windy Night)
The Notorious B.I.G. – Gimme The Loot
The Drums – Me And The Moon
Uffie – Give It Away
Monarchy – Love Get Out Of My Way (Holy Ghost! ft. Dixon Dub)
Voltage – All Night (Original Mix)
Brooklyn Dreams – Street Man (12″ Mix)
Aeroplane – We Can’t Fly (Extended Drums Mix)
Lake Heartbeat – Between Dreams
The Originals – Baby I’m For Real
Carly Simon – Why (12″ Mix)
Koji Kondo – The Legend of Zelda – Triforce Catch Fanfare
