R.I.P. Penny (My Puppy) (A little delayed Sunday Six)

Here is said specimen of Dog... and at 3 months old, she died after not pulling through a fairly routine operration.
I am faairly gutted (not gonna lie) and also quite lost as to now what to do..)

SOOoO, I realised I had not blogged for a decent amount of time, so here comes a post (as you can see)...

First of all this week we start off with a classic

Eye of the Tiger - Survivor (Dirty Disco Youth Interpretation)
This tune has one of the most recognizable riffs of all time, and belongs to a legacy of films which are legendary. This track is perfect to drop in a set midway through, or just to listen to on your iPod (other generic MP3 players are available) to bring a simle to your face.

Walking on a Dream - Emperors of the Sun (Kids at the Bar Remix)
Emperors of the Sun have created a catchy little number in this, and Kids at the Bar, famous for creating a stonkingly phat remix of Technologic, have worked their magic again.

Gauglione 2008 - Ciscko Brothers (Alex Gaudino Remix)
Whilst recently doing photography, I came across Danny Bond DJ'ing in Leeds, at a night called Daft he dropped this beast of a tune. He specifically mentioned that it was the Alex Gaudino Remix that was the best one, and I tend to agree...
It feels like its a song you've heard before, when actually you haven't... its reasonably large.

Hi Fatmau5 - Deadmau5 vs. Fatman Scoop
This shouldnt work at ALL, but it does. Weirdly

Brazil (2nd Edit) - Deadmau5
This song is one ofthose beautiful songs that can make you feel better whenever your down. It helped me with Penny's death, although I've still not really got round to realising that she is dead. Brazil is a 'hands in the air and lets all float around' kinda tune, its really beautiful.

Rappers Delight - Dan the Automator
Speaks for itself...... :D

Philosophy is very bad.

A mans wife had recently died. He was distraught, and after months of mourning alone in his new family home, he seeked out mental help for him to get past his depression.
He scoured the internet and eventually got in touch it a psychiatrist named Dr. Winton.
The very next day he went along to the office of Dr Winton with an open mind and very hopeful to get on with his life.

The whole process went as one would expect.
"When was the last time you saw her?"
"How do you feel this last memory effects your grief?"
"What do you think of living in the marital home meant for your new family?" Asked Dr Winton.

The man talked through his problems with the Doctor, and over the course of the session started feeling better.

Then, Dr Winton asked abruptly, "Why is it you bury the dead? Why must they be forced underground away from all those who love them?"
"Well, they carry disease, i suppose"
"That is what we are told, but i don't see any proof. Infact, I believe........"

2 hours later the man emerged from the session ready to start his new life. He found new purpose and was ready to pursue it.

Later that night he was arrested for necrophilia.
In prison, he was raped many times, until he finally killed himself.

The moral is, Sometimes, the professionals are the ones who've got it wrong. Find your own way of gettin about.

story time.

Music is not all we offer the world.

i have decided that once a week i will share with the public, a short story. Either, the best one i've heard all week, or just one i made up.
This story may be in the form of a joke, a fable, a hillari-tale, or just a short story.

This week:

Either live with an open mind, or just stick to what you know...

Confined in the dark, narrow cage of our own making which we take for the whole universe, very few of us can even begin to imagine another dimension of reality.

“Where do you come from?” asked the frog in the well
“From the great ocean,” he replied
“How big is your ocean?”
“It’s gigantic.”
“You mean about a quarter of the size of my well here?”
“Bigger.”
“Bigger? You mean half as big?”
“No, even bigger.”
“It is… as big as this well?”
“There’s no comparison.”
“That’s impossible! I’ve got to see this for myself.”
They set off together. When the frog from the well saw the ocean, it was such a shock that his head just exploded into a pieces.

Its *after* 1 o'clock in the morning: Sunday Six III

As the happy nature of the title of this post suggests, it is a bit late (GMT - 31/05/09) however, I have been completing art coursework.. which has been spanking me like a bitch.

First of all, heres a shout to all our german friends (in Germany) - heres the Dance scene in the UK... :)

Apollo - We Plants Are Happy Plants
My partner in crime got me onto WPAHP about 2 months ago, and their tracks blew me away, with their stunning blend of chilled electro and indie. Anyway, this is probably my favourite track by them ever, so have a listen

Boom Boom Pow - Black Eyed Peas (Mr. GASPAR remix)
This fellow knows when to pick a huge pop hit, and turn it into a big club tune. GASPAR did it in 2008 with 'I kissed a Girl', and here he has done it again, coming out, unlike Chew Fu's remix, giving a totally new feel, with a funky mid-tone riff that would tear through children's brains.

California Love - 2Pac (Big Nasty Remix)
This is such a big tune... the original makes me bop like a loony in a psychiatric ward... and when out doing photography one night, this tune was dropped, so I had to search out what it was. Deadmau5 ha5 al5o done a remix of this track, but it'5 too progre55ive for me.

Poker Face - Lady Gaga (LAZRTag Remix)
I've stumbled my way down the commercial route for this post, but fuck it, the crowd go bonkers for a commercial hit or two that they know in the set.. This again turns a huge pop hit into a club bouncer... As in it will make you bounce, not refuse you entry becuase you are too young, or are dressed like a chav. But chavs arent cool.....

Don't Upset The Rhythm - Noisettes (Kissy Sell Out Remix)
Kissy's remix turns the original quirky track from being a catchy little number into a dirty banger - Great success!!

Finally, From The 'Remix After All' Album I take the track Television Rules the Nation in the Dirty Disco Youth Remix.

Keep the beat Alive y'all

Zoooiiink!

What with the tides flowing and the moonbeams showing, work is no fun and blogging is clearly much more fun. I too am hungry, but alas farewell they shall have to wait.

I have just got my paws onto a new mix by 'Dale Castell', one of the hottest DJs around from the north: Find him on Facebook

There it shows you what how and why he blends the tunes he does, and he does do just that magnificently.
