Summer’s Sampled Sounds

June 20th, 2008

Happy Friday, friends.  As the last hours of Spring slip by I want to give you all the chance to fill your .mp3 players with the summer’s party tunes.  First, recently returned from another round of demonstrating their signature Bootie sound around the globe, NYC taste-makers AplusD have just today posted a double-shot of top-ten bootleg tracks proven to fill dancefloors (and headphones) from Hong Kong to Copenhagen in the last couple of months.  You can download all twenty tracks from links in their blog.  Special mention goes out toDj BC’s Stop the Violence in Africa, because it makes lift my hands up and say (as this mash-up thing so often does) Boogie Down Productions vs. Toto?  Who knew?!

And if you’re not already familiar with AplusD, they’ve got more of their favorite tracks available on their website.

And just yesterday Greg Gillis, whom you probably know as Girl Talk, released the latest and best album-length mashup yet Feed The Animals to the Internet on a pay-what-you-feel-you-should-pay system similar to what Radiohead did with In Rainbows.
