House Jam

I've had this song stuck in my head for awhile now.  Normally I was never a big fan of Gang Gang Dance, but their latest album is a super fun and interesting listen.  This remix simply loops and chops the intro sample over a rolling mellow synth house beat.  XXXchange did a great remix of this tune ( with vocals and all ) you can grab here

MY WHINEY VALENTINE

I went to see My Bloody Valentine perform their second of two sold out shows here in LA.  This was the first time I've ever seen them, and of course it was awesome.  At the end, they did their wall of sound aural attack during " You made me realize," which seemed to divide the crowd in half,  between the real fans, and the people that were more concerned with getting out of the parking lot before the other guy.  The kind of person who leaves a baseball game early when it could still go either way.  They basically play all their instruments as hard as they can for 20 minutes straight at the highest volume legally agreed to in their contracts, only to dive back seamlessly into a final chorus and end of the song out of nowhere.  For a band who plays moody shoegaze tunes, this is by far their best way of saying "fuck you we are still awesome, "  It made me think of a Silver Mt. Zion song called " This is our punk rock, " My Bloody Valentine's way of being punk rock.  It made me happy to see this happening in 2008 still,  go figure it was from a band of people approaching their 50's.

RADIOHEAD REMIX

Via Wikipedia
"Reckoner" is a song by English alternative rock band Radiohead and is the seventh track on their 2007 album In Rainbows. The song will be released as the fourth single from In Rainbows on 23 September 2008[1]. It will be released through the Radiohead Remix website in the form of 'stems', individual parts of the song (e.g. vocals, guitar, piano) for fans to remix, as with "Nude". The band had James Holden and Diplo create the first remixes of "Reckoner"

In 2001 Radiohead performed a song named "Reckoner" in George, WA[3]. This song, also known as 'Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses' after a part of the lyrics, was a fast-paced, 'thrashy' rock song. In 2005, at a Trade Justice Movement rally where he also played "Nude," Radiohead singer Thom Yorke performed this version of "Reckoner" on acoustic guitar. Yorke was later asked about the band's plans for "Reckoner", and he declared it "dead and buried." The song, in either form, was not played on the 2006 Radiohead tour where most In Rainbows material was introduced live. However, the song title was included in the final track listing of their seventh album.
"Reckoner" on In Rainbows seems to bear little resemblance to the earlier incarnation of the song. When the album came out in October 2007, critics and listeners who had heard both versions remarked that the recorded version of "Reckoner" was calmer, taking the form of a ballad sung in falsetto, with dominant percussion and insistent, softer guitar riffs, and entirely different lyrics. Late in 2007, members of Radiohead gave an interview to BBC Radio 1 in which they explained that the new "Reckoner" in fact came out of an attempt to record the earlier song with that title. Late in the sessions, Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood tried adding a coda to the original version of the song, and eventually the band decided to abandon everything except the new coda, which became "Reckoner."

In the interview where he explained the song's construction, Yorke also said the lyrics of "Reckoner" were the most important on In Rainbows for him.
