SOUND CAFFEINE/TRACKS WE'RE LISTENING TO: Hyper Crush, Daft Punk, Skrillex and Labyrinth Ear.

Sound Caffeine, distinctly Night Edition. These tracks make me wanna break out the Skittles Vodka and dance. And then hit the streets and find a place actually playing these tracks. And then dance some more. When it's almost dawn and I'm sweaty and still racing... Well, there's even a cool track for that.

SOUND CAFFEINE/TRACKS WE'RE LISTENING TO: Adele, Lykke Li and Cut Copy

Sound Caffeine, Morning Edition. These are the tracks that are singlehandedly making my morning better. May they do the same for those listening to them here.

First up is Adele, whose "Set Fire to the Rain" I first heard a couple of weeks ago during a photo shoot. Is this song not intense but also very listenable? An awesome track from Adele's 21.

Adele - Set Fire to the Rain

 

And continuing the recent Lykke Li streak from before, I'm posting "I Follow Rivers (Dave Sitek Remix)." If it's good, it's good. (Don't go messing up Lykke Li now... ) Thankfully this is a remix well done.

And finally, is another remix of Cut Copy's "Take Me Over" from Zonoscope.

SOUND CAFFEINE/TRACKS WE'RE LISTENING TO: Nicki Minaj + Cut Copy + M.I.A.

Take a little Nicki Minaj, add a little Cut Copy. Then top it off with a decent M.I.A. remix. Result? More bang than a Republican Tea Bagger's wet dream.

SOUND CAFFEINE/TRACKS WE'RE LISTENING TO: Ali Love, Frankie and the Heartstrings, Ke$ha, Oh Land, La Sera

Ali Love's "Moscow Girl" didn't appeal to me at first, honestly. But this remix turned that around. In fact, I like the original track now, too.

Ali Love - Moscow Girl (Jacques Renault Remix)

 

Frankie and the Heartstrings has a sound that fits a certain mood. Maybe it's just me. It's excellent music, sure. But it's best when I have a craving for it and not something I'll put on every day. 

Frankie and the Heartstrings - Hunger

 

Ke$ha. I never thought I'd put Ke$ha on this blog. (I sided with Uffie, even if Uffie didn't care one way or another.) But Ke$ha is relentless and the tracks just keep coming. And if I didn't know this was hers, I'd still like it. Probably more but oh well. 

Ke$ha - Sleazy (Remix) (feat. Andre 3000)

 

Oh Land's "White Nights" was appealing even before the remix. But this made it a sure thing for me.

Oh Land - White Nights (Twin Shadow remix)

 

La Sera is practically everywhere, all over the blogosphere. And as tempted as I am to hold that against her, I simply can't. Yes, this is a track I've been listening to lately.

La Sera - Devils Hearts

SOUND CAFFEINE/TRACKS WE'RE LISTENING TO: Gorillaz, Yelle, Black Strobe.

Awesome: new stuff from Yelle. We've been a fan since the beginning and it's been fun watching her career. More, we say. Also, this Gorillaz track has been stuck in the rotation around here and we don't mind. And finally, Black Strobe has a cool name. And they even refer to Madonna in the track title, so it's getting thrown in here too. Enjoy.
