Double Reading

More than ten again but there has just been so much good music out there lately! This time I added links to YouTube if the song was on there (usually not an official video but just the music). Beyoncé – Sweet Dreams (Harlan Pepper & AG III Remix) [YouTube music] Kid Cuid – Pursuit of [...]

Madonna – What It Feels Like For A Girl (Tracy Young club mix) Miss Kittin & The Hacker – Suspicious Minds (Elvis Presley cover) L-Vis 1990 – Compass (Christian Martin remix) Gui Boratto – No Turning Back NightWaves – She’s Electric (House of Nada remix) Cadgedbaby – Medicine (Radio Slave reprise) Raw Man + Blance [...]

I ended up having twelve songs this month. Worth noting, I think, that not all of these songs are remixes — some of them are album tracks! Metronomy – Not Made For Love (Joakim remix) Shinichi Osawa – EEAA Mumdance & Brodinski – Eurostarr Bag Raiders – Shooting Stars (Siriusmo remix) Boys Noize – Jeffer [...]

Here is my latest mix. Originally I planned to use this mix to practice using a capellas ontop of different songs (I have a capellas for both “Music Sounds Better With You” by Stardust and “The Sound of Violence” by Cassius). Once the mix was done, though, the random a acapellas just didn’t seem to [...]

I’m going to try to start a new thing where every 22nd of the month (my birthday is on the 22nd of February so it seems like a good day), I’m going to post a chart of 10 songs that I’ve really been into for the month. Sometimes this means they are new songs that [...]

The other week in my post about Michael Jackson I made a terrible mistake! When I listed my three favorite Michael Jackson songs (“Thriller,” “Off The Wall,” and “Wanna Be Startin’ Something”) I left off my true favorite Michael Jackson song: “Beat It.” I’m not sure why I omitted it. I think I was caught [...]

I’ve recently been dealing with a fairly difficult (for me, at least) breakup. As part of the cathartic process I’ve been working on what I’ve referred to as my “bitter breakup mix.” It’s finally finished and I must say that both the experience of making it and the final product have made me feel a [...]

Due to the nature of my job, it’s usually a few days after a huge event until I start to really reflect on it. This weekend I (along with probably a lot of other people on the planet) I’ve been thinking about Michael Jackson. My mom reminded me that as a kid I really loved [...]

Seriously? Another DJ mix from Who Shot JR? Wasn’t the last one posted only a week ago? Yup! Coachella is coming up in just a few days (Friday, April 17, to be exact) so I was under a tight deadline. The mix contains artists and DJs who are going to be performing at Coachella this [...]

Now that it’s only four months too late, I’ve finally finished my “Year 2008″ mix project. Before that, though, I wanted to share some of where I came from and do some year-end lists. Don’t worry — I actually compiled these lists way back in December before I was swayed by all of the other [...]
