Everybodys favourite youtube beatboxer & soundcreator Dub Fx (his videos are just fun to watch & hear) made this little nice feelgood tune, that we came across yesterday, thanks to Toonie from the YUM YUM top tunes facebook group. cheers!!!
Nice & smooth Aaliyah remix by ITFW – really having a hard time these days, even attempting to listen to a remix of one of these classic soul/ hip hop tunes that get slaughtered regularly by too many bedroom djs and that whole awful mashup scene. No, Aaliyah and Daft Punk dont mix, morons! Anyway Try again has been and still is (like most of her stuff) all time classic material, minus the remixes, except that 45 king remix that was on the original 12″. This remix really lifts it up to a chill 2011 spirit, that is so much lacking these days, and is in complete contrast to the original – which was a global floor killer. Sounds a bit like the Lunice material, not as musical though, but compatible from educated hiphop to irony misunderstanding hipster.
Another gret find by chromemusic head contributor: Shawn C. White!
Already a few years old, but this great version never crossed my radar until schowi played it at YUM YUM Berlin 2 weeks ago. Sets the mood right for our lovely summer dances yet to come

While its sumemertime, i keep hearing James Blakes 2010 anthem limit to your love, everywhere i go and somehow nobody seems to remmeber that the original is just a few years old from 2007. The original is by Feist from her Überamazing album Reminder. Here you go, refresh your memory.

Loyd – Dedication to my Ex ft Andre 3000. Reminds me of the 00′ era Outkast tunes, i am not really into any exgirlfriend songs (neither whiny nor retaliating) or most of those teeny explicit lyrics in general – Rihanna sounds more mature. Really wanna see what they do for a clean/ radio version. But hey its Andre 3000 and that alone is worth mentioning it. Other than that the niveau of this song is slightly above any 2Live Crew tune. But ignore the lyrics and you’ll enjoy it.
