Katy Perry + Skeet Skeet


I bought a NOOK while I was in Dallas. I used to be a smart dude. Read a lot. Knew a lot. More importantly, understood a lot. Etc. Then I started napping and DJing and drinking and stopped reading and exercising and etc. And I became stupider and fatter and it really wasn't the best look for me. Which brings me back to the NOOK. I bought it. Was like, "I'm gonna start reading again!" Subscribed to The New York Times. And oh my dear sweet goodness, people are so unfathomably mean. Murders and assaults of various natures and robberies and pretty much everything that politicians do. And I mean, gross. Right? Wish I hadn't started reading again. People really are the meanest.

But Katy Perry and Skeet Skeet are totally rad and this remix is totally rad and I'm just gonna listen to it instead of reading about how mean everyone is, OK?

Friendly Greg + Robyn + Katy Perry + Nicki Minaj + Big Sean


I mentioned that NSR and I have a Robyn mix coming out soon, right? I mentioned that I'm, like, the biggest Katy Perry fan ever, right? So, like, no duh I made a "Dancing On My Own" v. "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" mash-up! Like, way no duh!

Turbz + Katy Perry + Nero + Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros + Len


So dubstep really isn't my thing. Like some of it's crazy good, but usually it just makes me feel super soft. And old. Like super, super soft and old. So when my dude Turbz hit me up all, "Yo, I made a dubstep mash-up," all I could really think was, "Bummer." But then he's all, "Katy Perry, dogs." And I'm all, "Yes!" And. Duh. It's great.

Now why I ever doubted that this mash-up would be anything less than stellar? Yea, that's a whole different question. I mean, Turbz is kinda like the king of edits. Seriously. Look at this SoundCloud page. Err, these nine SoundCloud pages. Like his "Steal My Sunshine" edit? Yo, it's a beast. And his "Home" edit? I play it out quite literally every single Saturday night. I could play an entire set of nothing but Turbz joints. That's how many of his edits I have. No joke.

Orange Juice + John Legend + Skeet Skeet + Turbotito


Today, vibes. First up is Skeet Skeet and Turbotito's remix of John Legend's cover of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep." (I wanna chop my fingers off every time I type a sentence like that.) This thing is so pro. So many vibes. Ridiculous. Skeet Skeet's such a production monster. Never seen him DJ, though. Which of course makes me wanna go to his show with Katy Perry that much more. The only question is whether my desire to catch Katy Perry and Skeet Skeet can outweigh my intense fear of going to New Jersey.

Rolling In The Deep (Skeet Skeet & Turbotito Version) by arjanwrites

In other news, I've been piecing together a new mix for the past week or so. Hopefully gonna be way different than any mix I've ever done before. Like Morrissey and The Clash and such as opposed to house and tech house and Dutch house. Also, Orange Juice. That said, the last mix I made for Discobelle was meant to be a tech house mix and that didn't exactly happen, so yea. This could just end up being Best of Katy Perry + Sky Ferreira, Vol. I. Wouldn't be mad.



P.S. Thanks to Arjan Writes for the "Rolling in the Deep" cut.

EDIT: Please take a moment to check out Top Billin's For Japan compilation. Some great tracks in exchange for a wee (or not so wee) donation. Do it.

Calvin Harris + Katy Perry + Dizzee Rascal


Listening to "Ready for the Weekend" on repeat as I studied for my economics midterm put me in a no-nonsense Calvin Harris mood. (That said, I'm more or less in a perpetual Calvin Harris mood.) So when I realized that I hadn't yet posted his remix of Katy Perry's "Waking Up in Vegas," my fingers went to tapping and typing. Love Katy (the above picture is one of my favorite things on the face of the earth), love Calvin, and the combination almost made me weep with joy.



But of course two C.H. tracks in a row simply isn't enough. Thus, "Holiday." Dizzee and Calvin did a great job on "Dance Wiv Me," and I might like this cut even more (maybe, just maybe). The cut didn't really make a strong impression on me the first time I heard it, but it's since become a favorite. So good, blah, blah, blah. Check it:



"And I'll never let your belly get empty - even when your belly's full you're still sexy."

EDIT: Second video got removed. Replaced it, but it's mad quiet. Deal with it - turn up your volume.

EDIT 2:
O.K. Looks like we're gonna have to wait a second to get a video with the latter track. Sorry, kids.
