Audio Blasphemy: the heretic of the music world!

So I have unexpectedly run into some extra time this academic semester, and accordingly decided to stop posting shit on Facebook and instead move my musical discovery to a more suitable place: blogspot (yea like everyone else.)

Here it is everyone the first post of Audio Blasphemy. I intend for this blog to bring you a variety of music from several genres in the form of news, recommendations, posts, events in my local community, etc. As well I will be providing you with mixes, remixes, live sets, original works under my DJ and production aliases Erol-E and Strangelove.

There you have it folks, my newest hobby. Give me time to get things figured out and remember to snag the tracks I post before I get threatened by big name record labels. In the mean time here's two remixes for today:



If you think you've had just about enough of M.I.A.'s most popular track this year (perhaps one of the most popular period), check out DFA's remix (not sure which DFA artist but I would guess that it's Hercules) it will make it feel brand new again; it's to be featured on a Paper Planes EP that's due out soon.

Black Lips' "Veni Vedi Veci" is perhaps their most popular track off of last year's Good Bad, Not Evil, although arguably not the best from their most recent title. A few months back Vice (www.viceland.com) commissioned Mad Decent remix genius Diplo to put a spin on the Atlanta quartet's first single from the album. Anyways here's a rework on that remix containing some more aggressive percussion and a little dancehall vibe.

Keep your ears open and your feet moving kiddies!
