SHREM'S CLUB BIZARRE INTRODUCING: "RUDE BOY (Eli Escobar Remix)" - Jogyo

This Jamaican/Gabonese duo has just delivered one of the most original tunes in 2012. The track itself emerged first in 2011 but now with a little help from the amazing Eli Escobar, "Rude Boy" is making its way across the blogosphere with the song's barking-mad mish-mash of dancehall, electro and reggaeton. It is an exotic explosion of throbbing rhythms, in-your-face beats and sound effects. Loud, brazen and huge!  



And here's last year's original version of this berserk single, follow JOGYO now on their Twitter:

SHREM'S DOUBLE TROUBLE: "WALK ON BY" - El Perro del Mar /// "FOOLS GOLD" - The Stone Roses

There usually is so much more in common between the two tracks I present to you in my "Double Trouble" thread. Today it is possibly a very subjective feeling that made me join these two songs despite of the 23 years gap between their release dates and sonic similarities which are perhaps not that obvious at all. When I saw El Perro Del Mar's neon-tastic new video last night for the very first time it somehow oddly brought back the memories of Stone Roses' phenomenal 1989 single "Fool's Gold" - a forerunner of the indie-goes-dance movement which dominated the following years on the map of British music. No more excuses, just listen to them both here, don't they mingle with each other rather splendidly? One additional comment on "Walk On By" - it must be one of the most beguiling moments in Pop music this year, don't you think?

SHREM'S LATE MONDAY NIGHT SESSIONS... "RUNNING OUT OF TIME" + "HEAD HELD HIGH" - Frost

Frost - the Norwegian maestros of the most wondrous synth-pop melodies in the whole Scandinavia, are finally back with their long anticipated 4th album. "Radiomagnetic" is an alluring and sometimes enigmatic excursion into the fascinating sonic territories of electronica, analog instrumentation and "icicle" pop. I have been a devoted fan of this talented duo since I stumbled upon their second album, the ethereal "Melodica" a whole decade ago... These two tracks stole my heart immediately after listening to the record for the first time. The album is available now on iTunes, Beatport and other digital outlets and can be streamed in full on the band's soundcloud. For the freshest updates on Aggie & Per's latest happenings bookmark their official website now!

CHOON OF THE DAY: "THINK OF YOU" - T.Williams feat. Tendai + Submerse Remix

Such a silky melodic piece of UK Funky, pure bliss. T.Williams has been on my radar for quite some time mostly thanks to his superb remix treatments which appeared on some of the most flavoursome UK Garage releases this year. "Think of You" comes from his latest EP - "Pain & Love". His mix for Jessie Ware's eponymous "Wildest Moments" is out of this world good too!
