E-Rock + Taylor Swift + Oliver

My love for Taylor Swift in the year 2011 went something like this:

1. Ring in the new year playing "On to the Next One." I secretly wish I were playing "You Belong With Me" or "Love Story."

2. I don't really like "Sparks Fly." Am I not a true T. fan?

3. OMFG, GTFO. Songs as good as "The Story of Us" exist? Why have I ever wasted my time listening to anything else ever, ever, ever? OMG, this song. OMG, OMFG, ZOMG.

4. My hair looks really good in my new Taylor Swift women's XL tee.

5. "The Story of Us" is the perfect last song for my mix Where's My Meet-Cute? The Search for Friendly Greg's Future Wife!. I can't wait for her to meet my cat. And I can't wait to meet hers. Our family is gonna be quite literally too adorable.

6. E-Rock plays "The Story of Us" at Westway, I go honey baked ham, Turbz stares at me like I'm one of these or something of the sort.

7. E-Rock ends his best of 2011 mix with "The Story of Us" and I'm like, "Um, yes! Totally neat, radical, and super!"

8. I play "We Found Love" at midnight instead of "The Story of Us" on NYE because I wanna "do a good job" and "get paid" and "not piss everyone off." And thus 2012 begins just as miserably as did 2011.

Joy Division + Youth + Oliver

Goodness gracious. The kid Youth. His edits. Absolutely flawless stuff. So you know that feeling where you see a remix or edit of one of your favorite tracks somewhere? And you're all, "OMGeez, I can't wait to hear this!" And then it totally sucks butt. And you're all, "OMGeez, it's ruined! Wah!" Well that'll never happen with Youth. Dude stays making nice, tasteful edits of all things wonderful. This here track is no exception:

Also. The Texas Rangers. How are they so nice at baseball? Nelson Cruz. Where did he come from last series? Mike Napoli. When did he decide that he could, you know, play defense? Derek Holland. When did he start bodying folks in the postseason? CJ Wilson. OK, well CJ still can't pitch a playoff game to save his life. Shouts to consistency. Oh, and Oliver made another good song. Duh.

Sneaky Sound System + Oliver + Meek Mill + Young Chris

Sneaky Sound System has a new album dropping on Friday. In Australia and New Zealand, that is. It comes out on Monday the 17th for the rest of the galaxy. So ready. Their self-titled album was huge. "UFO"? Total banger. Anywho, the new album. "Big." Another banger. Unsurprisingly, the Oliver remix is LVLz as well.

Also. So I DJed a Food Network party hosted by Bobby Flay last night. Riding home in my friend's car. Hot 97. Meek Mill track featuring Young Chris comes on. Yea, I'm feeling this:

Oliver + Sneaky Sound System + Moullinex + Dirty South Joe + Kamp!

Um. Oliver. The dudes are kind of killing the game, right? Right. And their remix for Sneaky Sound System is no different. Epic, sexy, and borderline overwhelming. Swag me out, catty. Shouts to Gotta Dance Dirty for the track.

Plus the Moullinex remix of Kamp!. Quieter, tamer, equally sexy. But can we talk for a second about SoundCloud comments? I mean, yea. It's great that wonderful songs like these are getting OD love all over the internet. But like. When I can't skim through a track because comments keep popping up on the player? Like seriously? Get outta here with that noise, SoundCloud! Yeesh. Spectacular remix, though.

And oh my word. Dirty South Joe's Me, Myself & Irene mix for Fingers On Blast. I dunno. I have no words. Every mix this dude does is pure genius. So versatile, so knowledgable. Blah, blah, blah.
