    Destroy-Rock-And-Roll-Remix-Blog-Pump-Up-The-Jam-The-Album-Technotronic

    This song takes me back to the late 80!

    Pump Up The Jam the original version which came out in 1998 was a early Belgian house club classic that actually played on the radio. It became a worldwide smash hit going all the way to the top of the pop charts. This new version a remix by D.O.N.S. which is actually several years old now is a fresh take on the original hit by Technotronic. It’s got a more modern beat to it and it’s more in line with the sound of the clubs now. I like it but there’s something about the original that still takes me back to the days of acid house, new beat and an awesome era in club music. Both worth owning. Check them out below.

    The original Pump Up The Jam is off of the Technotronic album of the same name.

  3. Heartbeat (A Touch Of Class’ Class-ic Vocal Mix) by Taana Gardner

    Destroy-Rock-And-Roll-Remix-Blog-Taana-Gardner-West-End-Records2

    I love Heartbeat in it’s original form by Taana Gardner but this remix from 2001 is pretty darn cool. It’s much more sped up so it’s not as mellow as the original is so it’s more geared for the club floor. Heartbeat was originally released in 1981 off of West End Records and it’s still pretty darn cool. It’s so laidback and chill but very early 1980s disco. Worth it if you disco lovers have never heard of. Heartbeat and Work That Body are the only hits Taana Gardner is known so she had a small career in disco music. Taana Gardner has worked with some very legendary folks from that era including Larry Levan and Dr. Buzzard’s Original Savannah Band.

    This remix of Heartbeat is part of a disc called Dance For Life West End Records Celebrates the 10th Anniversary of LIFEbeat. It’s def worth owning as there are new remixes of old West End Records classics including an Angel Moraes remix of Work That Body by Taana Gardner. Check it out!

  4. Dalminjo feat Anja Oyen Vister Covers The Smiths Song There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

    I love it when musicians take a song that’s so well known from an era with such a specific genre and put a new spin on it. This is the fact with Dalminjo Featuring Anja Oyen Vister covering The Smiths classic There Is A Light That Never Goes Out. Dalminjo is known for jazzy housed up club and electronic music and he’s remade this very well known Smiths track and made it housed up clubby but nothing too obnoxious with the beats sort of laidback but you know midtempo. This is the remixed version below as the original version is pretty mellow minimal. Check it out here with the original Smiths version. I like it and I do like it that he’s used Anja Oyen Vister to record the vocals so hearing this with female vocals is a pretty cool thing. What do you think?

  5. Just Can’t Get Enough (Dirty South Remix) by Depeche Mode

    Destroy-Rock-And-Roll-Remix-Blog-DepecheMode-Picture-Martyr

    This is a vinyl promo release of the Dirty South Remix for Just Can’t Get Enough – the Depeche Mode synth pop classic that kick started their 25+ year career in the music biz. It’s a pretty darn good remix by Dirty South the Australian DJ/musician that’s known for his electro house sound. The remix keeps the original famous synth sound but it takes a while to actually hear something borrowed from the original Depeche Mode track but I still dig it. It’s very fresh and now … well from 3 years ago part of the Depeche Mode greatest hits CD that came out then with their single Martyr – their 45th single. It’s always fun to see the video to Just Can’t Get Enough as well. Check it out below.

    Check both the original and the remix below.

  6. Give It 2 Me (Eddie Amador House Lovers Mix) by Madonna

    Destroy-Rock-And-Roll-Remix-Madonna-Give-It-2-Me-Portrait

    Give it 2 Me is a pretty darn good song on Madonna’s Hard Candy album. This version of Give It 2 Me is a remix off of the CD single for Give It 2 me and it’s one of the better remixes on the disc. It’s the Eddie Amador House Lovers mix. The CD single contains lots of choices but among all the talent that have been hired to remix this track only one has actually been able to create something original so I was a bit disappointed with the whole collection and unfortunately failed to even listen to the Eddie Amador House Lovers Mix. Just earlier today I was a clothing store and I heard this version playing loudly on the system and quickly thought to come back and check out the collection and sure enough they were playing this version. So at least the collection is worth it for this version. Check out both the original and the remix of Give It 2 Me by Madonna below. Whatcha think?

  8. Follow Me (Fred Everything & Olivier Desmet Sf Vocal) by Aly-Us


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    Follow-Me-2009-Aly-Us

    Follow Me by Aly-Us is a spiritual or gospel house hit way back from 1992 off of the Strictly Rhythm Records. The original is very soulful and I can hardly consider it house music. The recent remixes package that was released contains this Fred Everything & Olivier Desmet remix. I like it it tries to hold on to it’s soulfulness but I still dig the Full Intention Remix that was released back in 2002. Check out both versions below. The original, original version from 1992 and this latest remix by Fred Everything & Olivier Desmet. What do you think?

    I was never a big fan of In And Out Of My Life by Adeva but this remix has changed my opinion about this house classic from 1988. It’s been remixed and remade countless times but this remix by Eric Prydz wins me over. Eric Prydz gives it a slight electro touch to the house music classic. Check them both out below. The original by Adeva and the Eric Prydz sampled track which is a remix of his own working of In And Out. The original version below is the 1995 rerelease with a new remix by Roger Sanchez.

  10. Feeling Good (Epic Mix) by Huff & Herb Samples Feeling Good by Nina Simone


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    Huff-And-Herb-Feeling-Good-SingleBuddha-Bar-1-CD-Cover

    I had not heard of this track Feeling Good (Epic Mix) by Huff & Herb back when it came out in 1997. It’s basically a sample of Feeling Good by Nina Simone. This of course the Epic Mix is remixed by the genius Rollo of Faithless fame and the brother of Dido! Anyway I first heard it several years later when Buddha Bar 1 came out. It’s a pretty darn good mix and of course a remix by Rollo with his signature sound. And I love how Nina Simone’s voice is perfect against the electronic dance beats! Pretty risque pic of Nina below … didn’t know she did that type of stuff! In the nude!!!!!!!!

    Nina-Simone-Nude-Portrait

    Check it out below and compare the original with a very minimal background well at least the first part of the song is pretty minimal and the Huff & Herb version with the Rollo Epic Mix. The video is below too. Not anything special and it’s pretty dated but worth a look! Also check out the black and white vintage animation with the song Feeling Good at Dailymotion.

    This is a pretty darn good track from Bob Sinclar off of his Western Dream album which is really fun very pop friendly which is what this track is. Rock This Party samples Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) by C+C Music Factory. I always thought C+C Music Factory was the mass produced and marketed Black Box so I was never really into their music as I was into Black Box but this sample of Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) is sampled perfectly in this song. Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) is off of C+C Music Factory’s Gonna Make You Sweat album. Check out both versions out below … and comment.

  12. Louie Vega Covers Thousand Finger Man by Candido

    Candido-Thousand-Finger-Man-AlbumCandido-Photograph

    Louie Vega does a great cover of the disco classic Thousand Finger Man by Candido. Love this very Latin inspired track as was the original by Candido. This track comes right off the Elements Of Life “Extensions’ CD which I highly recommend for a bunch of other awesome tracks by Louie Vega all remixed. Sexy Latin inspired house music. This Thousand Fingered Man and along with the Mon Amour (DJ Gregory Remix)are the winners on the release. Pretty darn cool.

    Alan-Braxe-Fred-Falke-Picture

    Intro by Alan Braxe And Fred Falke is a fun, groovy and festive dance track. It samples the track Crush On You by The Jets. But there’s also mention that Crush On You by The Jets was originally sampled by The Wee Papa Girls in a track called Get In The Groove and that is the sample that Alan Braxe And Fred Falke have used for this track but who knows. You be the judge.

  15. From: Disco To: Disco by Les Rythmes Digitales


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    Les-Rythmes-Digitales-darkdancer

    The now classic Les Rhthmes Digitales album Darkdancer contains many samples and covers on several of the tracks. It’s a great album and I still come back to it and listen to several of the cuts on it. One of the better uses of samples music is this track From: Disco To: Disco which contains the sample of the song with  the same name From: Disco To: Disco by Whirlpool Productions.  I don’t know much about Whirlpool Productions but I know the original From: Disco To: Disco was released in 1996.

    Check out the fun video for From: Disco To: Disco by Whirlpool Produtions:

  16. Paris (Aeroplane Remix) by Friendly Fires featuring Au Revoir Simone


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    Paris_Remix_Friendly_Fires

    friendly-fires-band-picture

    WOW! These two versions are completely different. I have to say I first heard Paris (Aeroplane Remix) on FabricLive 45 – A-Trak and had to find out more about Friendly Fires and I was like what nice I like the music they release and I needed to research them more.

    I really love these both versions of Paris but as I said above they are completely different from one another. Like night and day. I favor the remix over the original more indie alternative sound but they are both cool. Preview both versions below.

    The original Paris is off of the self titled Friendly Fires album.

     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    This is pretty nice! Let The Music Play … the classic high energy 80s dance track by Shannon has been given the remix treatment by multiple remixers and released for sale/download. My favorite is the Chris Cox & Trent Cantrelle Remix but you folks can be the judge on the other. They are well worth it for anyone into dance music, remixes or 80s music. It’s released by Perfecto the Paul Oakenfold label. Perfect for clubs or your the club in your house!

    Unfortunately this remake is not as solid as the original by Candido. The Candido version is a disco classic from the Salsoul catalog and Creamer and Vukas have taken an awesome track and made something mediocre. What do you think? Check out both versions below.

  19. Vampires (Louie Vega House Remix) by Thievery Corporation


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    This Vampires song is one of the weakest tracks off of the Radio Retaliation disc from Thievery Corporation. And unfortunately this remix by Louie Vega has not improved it. It’s unfortunate but this last album by Thievery Corporation is one of their weakest. This remix is off of the Radio Retaliation Extras digital download which comes with a remix for Mandala by Pathaan and the bonus track Philospher’s Stone which is not availble on the album.

    What do you think of the two versions?

  20. Champagne by Motorfunk


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    I absolutely love this track. It’s from a not very well known act from the very late 90s and early this decade called Motorfunk. They might be French but I could be wrong probably from the UK.

    I found this cut off of The Dirty House Session mixed CD by Groove Armada. It’s a free disc that came with my favorite magazine of the mid to late 90s called Muzik. Lot’s of great reviews and features of awesome electronic and dance music. The magazine folded around 2003 or so but this mix is one of their great mixes that came with the magazine. I have several of the mixes and I do enjoy listening to them still every once in a while.

    The track Champagne is basically sampling the Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King track Love Come Down. You kind of get that because it’s called Champagne. I kind had to listen twice to figure it out at first. I just didn’t know where the track from but I put two and two together and voila it turned out to be Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King! I absolutely dig this track because Evelyn’s version is so early 80s funk dance but this version by Motorfunk is so fast and ready for todays clubs. Even though it’s several years old now it’s still sounds fresh! I can still hear it at any hopping club.

    Check out the video with Evelyn singing Love Come Down. I absolutely love her hair. Don’t you think?

    And a live version which I think it’s from Solid Gold?? Maybe?

    Here are the two versions:

    Love Come Down (12″ Version) by Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King
     Champagne by Motorfunk

    Love Come Down (12″ Version) comes from Evelyn’s Greatest Hits CD.

  21. Can’t Fake The Feeling (Quick’s Amped Up Discopass) by Geraldine Hunt


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 



    Taking old disco classics like this Geraldine Hunt classic from the late 80s and sampling and or remixing was a common thing in the 90s. This remix came out in 1999 almost 20 years after the original version was on the billboard hot dance club chart. It was on in 1980 in October and spent it there for 7 weeks.

    I certainly do enjoy the original alot and disco even though is old still doesn’t sound tired. This remix though by Prince Quick is sounding quite nice but maybe a little tired. I’m still digging it though only and it’s certainly in Prince Quick’s typical style/sound.

    Prince Quick has made a pretty nice update here even though this remix is 10 years old it’s moves. Don’t you think so?

  22. Hide U by Suzanne Palmer and Kosheen


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    When this song came out there was so much controversy surrounding it. It was recorded by Kosheen which I think is the better of the two versions but Suzanne Palmer from the Star *69 Records gang had the better remixes more housey and club friendly as Star *69 Records have known to be. But why release it at the same time? I don’t think it hurt either artist but was a stupid thing to do as it confused people!

    I heard the Kosheen version first and it left an impression on me and their first album Resist is quite amazing! In my book the Kosheen version is still better – dark and moody with great drum & bass background and my favorite out of the two. What do you think? Which is the better for you? Check out the video of the Kosheen version below as well.

  23. Gypsy Woman (Acapella) vs Gypsy Woman (Dim’s Special Re–Touch) by Crystal Waters vs Montefiori Cocktail


     Powered by Max Banner Ads 

    Here’s a song that came out way back in 1991 around the time when house and dance music was just about to explode. It’s a great pop dance track and has a nice groovy beat to it. Crystal Waters was just an up and coming singer when this came – she later had another song 100% Pure Love a couple of years later but this was the song that put her on the map. I especially love the La Da Di La Di Da part as it’s quite catchy!

    This version is totally different and it’s excellent. It’s been given the jazzy loungy treatment by Montefiori Cocktail from Italy. it’s still quite upbeat but you got the big band horns and the live orchestra sounds that goes along with the jazzy feel. I absolutely love it. This version though comes off of the Dimitri From Paris In The House – off of the 3rd disc that is unmixed. Dimitri From Paris has added the Acapella of Gypsy Woman to the instrumental remix of it by Montefiori Cocktail. Check it out and let me know what you think of the two different versions. I think the new version is quite more now and it doesn’t sound so dated like the original does. Boy when I hear the original version it certainly takes me back. Way back to 1991! Long time ago!

  24. It’s Gonna Be Alright (Original 2001 Mix) by Pussy 2000

    This has got to be one of the best mash-up’s ever made. It came out before mash-ups were really in vogue and got big – so it’s done quite perfectly and it’s quite listenable compared to most mash-ups. The track incorporates elements of Rock The Casbah by The Clash and also It’s Alright by Sterling Void. Of course you’ll probably remember the Pet Shop Boys version of It’s Alright and not know that it’s originally done by Sterling Void.

    I have both versions below as well as Rock The Casbah and The Pussy 2000 mash-up. Check them out and let me know what you think.

  25. Horny As A Dandy (Original Mix) by Mousse T vs. The Dandy Warhols

    I love this mash up of Horny by Mousse T Featuring the vocals of Hot ‘N’ Juicy and The Dandy Warhols Bohemian Like You. I like the original but it’s a little too housy and of course it sounds a bit dated for today but this recent mash up sounds quite nice and more ‘now’. You think? Tell me what your thoughts are on these two versions. I think you will go with the more recent version but you never know some of you may prefer the house sounds of the 90s over the rock, new wave electro sounds of the last couple of years. I like both but really into the new mash up.
