"I Won't Give Up"

Parts of this song remind me of an old song that I can't put my finger on...maybe that's something about being older and loving music. I can't say that I knew the album version...I skimmed the album and grabbed a few tracks and passed it by. Maybe it was too mellow for the mindset that I had in that moment....whatever.

This is a nice version. I'll have to watch the rest of the episode.

Thirty + Thirty for Thursday

Finally back with another little mix for you. It's been so long coming I made it twice as long.

I've been finding reggae remixes pretty steadily for the last few months now and I feel that they've really given new life to the songs. Some I've already shared via Facebook and bunch are my favorites on soundcloud as well.


One long file as usual can be downloaded with this.


Or if you're trapped at a desk for an hour, you can listen below.





Tracks are as follows:


1. Elvis Presley & The Wailers - Crying in the Chapel
2. Sam Cooke & Sound Dimension - Love Me (both sides of this 7" are fantastic)

3. Analog Players Society - I Can't Wait ft Cecilia Stalin (head over and buy this if you like it, all 4 songs are great!)

4. Phyllis Dillon - Perfida (Daytoner Edit)
5. One Blood - Be Thankful For What You've Got (ADN Edit)
6. Mario's Tuna - Skanking in the Deep
7. Bob Marley & The Wailers - Soul Shakedown Party (Fort Knox Five Remix) 7" Edit

8. Dread Ashanti - Inside Ram (one "actual" reggae song since I just dug this CD out recently and remembered how great this is. Someone bought the rights to this and has it for sale online here (and also on iTunes apparently) if you wanted the rest of the album...or at least Feel No Way)

9. House of Pain - Jump Around (Maars Reggae re-fix)
10. Fat Freddie's Drop ft Jay Z - Pull The Catch Off Your Shoulders
11. Eric Clapton - I Shot The Sheriff (Dj Disse re-work edit)
12. The Dynamics - Whole Lotta Love (dL Edit)
13. Analog Players Society - Dance Hall Days
 

First Aid Kit

Thanks to the fabulous Suzy from Beviamo for sharing the first video on FB. I investigated further and although it's a bit melancholy, I really like these ladies. Sad to say I'm not going to Lolla this year...it seems to sell out quicker every year.

House Cleaning

Been going through the old hard drive in my computer and detailing out some old folders so I can add the files to iTunes. Among those are the folders corresponding to the CDs in my dj folder I titled House Cleaning as I was compiling things into full discs.
