Ex-Otago - The Rhythm of the Night

Got this from a friend, it's a little goofy but I kinda dig it. In my opinion, Ex-Otago got it right with this cover. It captures the original tracks main elements but Ex-Otago's version is almost an entirely new song. The band took an uninspired, played out 1993 track and made it into so much more.

The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition (RAC Remix)

Good track by remix specialists RAC of the 500 Days of Summer hit, Sweet Disposition. The original is amazing but RAC does a good job of maintaining the songs feel while transforming into something completely different.

Miracles Club - Church Song

New track from the Portland band, Miracles Club. Not my favorite but after a few minutes the track becomes almost hypnotic.

Passion Pit - All These Trees

Faux your listening pleasure, Passion Pit's "All These Trees." I'll admit, I'm a little late on this one... it was featured in American Express' ZYNC campaign during the holidays. I don't expect Passion Pit's new album being released anytime soon, so enjoy this new track in the meantime.

Chiddy Bang - Youngblood

If you haven't heard of Chiddy Bang yet, you best listen up.

The duo is comprised of Chidera "Chiddy" Anamege and Noah "Xaphoon Jones" Beresin. The two met while attending Drexel University. Their sound is based on the fusion of hip hop and unique samples from popular indie artists such as Sufjan Stevens, Passion Pit, and MGMT. Above, Chiddy Bang utilizes their lyrical and rythmatic magic to give us the The Naked and Famous remix of "Young Blood."

Tokyo Police Club - Wait Up (Dom Remix)

As much as I love TPC, a remix of their stuff is always refreshing. Here's an impressive remix from the band DOM of the TPC's track, "Wait Up." What I appreciate most about this remix is even though it is technically a remix, DOM embraces the original track so well that it could almost be mistaken for a Tokyo Police Club release.
