MIXTAPE 133 – BOUNCE TAPE THE FOURTH
So this is sort of cheating, decease since this was actually recorded in like mid March, and just sort of sat on my hard drive, but whatever – as long as it keeps me on a weekly schedule it counts, right? Right?
Bounce Tape 4. If you’re new to the series, you can get yourself caught up by checking the bounce tape file.
Note – this tape (like the others) is not necessarily “good”, and has a lot of “mistakes” like – overdrawn or nonexistent transitions, me playing things 30 BPM too fast because I think it sounds better that way, and well, Super Mario sound effects. If you’re okay with that, let’s get into it…
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg – The Next Episode (Jay Robinson Clubstep Mix). This kind of scared me the first time I heard it. @jayrobinson
Simian Mobile Disco – Cruel Intentions (feat. Beth Ditto) (Joker Remix). This is such a cute song, really, when you think about it. “Call me down, we’ll hang out, I’m down for whatever.” Like riding bikes or getting ice cream or something. That said, though, I’m pretty sure I’ve left messages like this on various females’ voicemails over the years, and it’s never worked out yet, so I can’t really recommend using it.
Deadmau5 & Kaskade – I Remember (Caspa Remix). Yes, like I said, this mix is old. But seriously, this song does not get old. The bass just really smashes like that. Have you seen this video that the mad decent kids put out? It also smashes. The clip, incidentally, is from Say Anything, which I watched on the strength of this clip, and I can also recommend, as it is a really fine specimen of mid-80s white cinema, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Gucci Mane – Dope Boys (Bird Peterson Remix). Seriously, listening to this now this song is so juvenile. I know MF Doom refers to himself in third person all the time, but somehow when Gucci does it he sounds like a first grader. Oh, the remix also samples BT – “Godspeedâ€, which is pretty funny. @gucci1017
Rapture – Don’t Go Do It (Million $ Mano Remix). Yeah, this is 2007 status, but nobody cares because this song just goes that hard. @djmano
Rye Rye – Bang feat. M.I.A. (DJ Sega’s Philly Club Remix). Speaking of M.I.A., has anyone really listened to that new record? I’ve only heard pieces, but I was liking what I was hearing. @tharealryerye
Prodigy – No Good. I don’t think people listen to enough Prodigy. @the_prodigy
Martyn – Hear Me. I think we need more organs, in general. @martyn3024
The Hood Internet – Blazin Kryptonite (Big Boi feat. Purple Ribbon All-Stars vs Ghislain Poirier). Yeah, I know, Hood Internet. But they absolutely got this one right. @hoodinternet
Lemon Jelly – ’75 Aka Stay With You. I played this a little fast, so if you want the real experience, I’d recommend locating a normal copy. It’s a pretty good track. www.lemonjelly.ky
Sabotage Party – Cold Night In Paradise. I can’t say I actually understand what’s going on here, but this is a pretty great song. @sabotage1893
okay yeah so that’s this week – see you next time.
Been away for a while but you’ve done it again Dex. Awesome mix. Should really do another mixtape myself soon…
no doubt – yeah, I’ve been away myself (from my own site, ha) recently, but trying to get back up on it!
been missin your show Dex but strong return i like it.
thanks fam – just trying to keep up a solid schedule here!
Sabotage Party, that’s my boys man, London reppin!
The tune is about trying to avoid the chicken heads in the club… But you had one drink to many.
It can ONLY end badly…
Keep vibes flowin Dex
Whatup Dex good to see you pumping out mixes again, keep up the good work!
And M.I.A’s album’s pretty experimental, it could grow on you but I like her older stuff better.
This is a really good … Looking forward to the next bounce tape already! Dex – do you have a club night somewhere where you play this between a 2am – 4am timeslot? That would be bloody amazing… keep up the good work.
hitro: from 2 to 4? haha! Nah, nothing live at the moment. if that changes, though, I’ll definitely be announcing that!
Loved this mix! Great for a quick workout as well.
