Today’s Song of the Day is taking a look back at one of my favorite remixes by MSTRKRFT. The track is D.A.N.C.E by Justice from their 2007 album †. The video for the single is also a classic as it was nominated for a 2007 MTV Video Music Award for “Video of the Year”. While the original track is indeed a great cut this remix is by far my favorite. 2010 might be huge year for Justice whose new album will probably surface sometime post WMC. Be on the lookout! I know I will!
OK St. Louis just in case there is anyone out there that doesn’t know that yes there are women in the DJ game let me hip you to a thing or two! There are indeed many top female DJs out there but if there was a “Queen of the Decks” that title would have to be bestowed to UK artist DJ Rap. DJ Rap (AKA Charissa Saverio) has been in the DJ game for over a decade and has brought an aggressive female vibe to Jungle/Drum and Bass style electronic dance music. Her breakthrough CD “Learning Curve”, was released in 1999 to widespread critical acclaim and she has continued to release six more solo albums building on “Learning Curve”s success. This is one busy lady because in addition to her solo music and performance schedule she is a member of the DnB influenced band Metasyn. Metasyn’s latest single was released last month and I have to tell you I think it’s really hit on something new. Check it out here…
In case that Metasyn track was a little to rocking for you here is DJ Rap’s latest single “I’m Ready”.

Adam K and Soha are one of the premiere remix artist teams out there. The list of hits they have disassembled and recreated is long. Some of my favorites include the oh so classic remixes of Kaskade’s “4AM”, and Benny Benassi’s “Come Fly Away”. These two seem to infuse a jazzy mellow vibe into the songs that is melodic but with enough punch to still groove to on the dance floor. Their latest and greatest remix is of the already classic “Loneliness” by Tomcraft. Check it out…
