“Ain’t My Fault” Gulf Aid Allstars aka Mos Def & Co (Nickodemus & PJT’s REMIX)

By chrome July 4, 2011

Nice remix of the Gulf Aid Allstars aka Mos Def, Lenny Kravitz, the Preservation Hall Band, Trombone Shorty, and Tim Robbins, the remix would have even worked up a proper storm w/o the oldschool drums and some moombahton or latin drumming, but it flawlessly manages to keep the vibe of the original track and is therefore a really solid refix. Great original in the first place and i just love playing this jam. Mos Def can do anything and i guess i’d like it, oh wait…he does anything and i do like his stuff.

YUM YUM Top 50 Tunes 2010

By Max December 20, 2010

just in time for our huuuuge YUM YUM new years eve party, here are the selected 50 top tunes of 2010. i know we ignored a whole bunch of tunes, that we especially as YUM YUM or chromemusic helped make big in our lands or even make it to the peak positions. remember our buddy Stromae?, Ben L’oncle Soul? or that song about the italian that doesnt speak any american-english lol, and many more… but seriously its not like i can bear hearing any of these tunes anymore. the old media has just being overfeeding us with our very own stuff. so here is a list of tunes that we played in 2010, some like mayer hawthorne were even released in 09, but that didnt stop us from coining these tunes in 2010 and thats why they belong here (its just very few exceptions anways). Some mellow, some soulful, some exstatic and some simply beautiful. pretty much what makes up YUM YUM. we had & have an amazing time playing these. thx to all and everyone for making YUM YUM what it is, namely.. one love

ps. the YUM YUM Dj Top tunes coming next week. All our djs showcasing their very favourite tunes of 2010.

a few new chromemusic favourites

By chrome November 15, 2010

A few chromemusic favourites for the floor and for your plugs. Enjoy the fine wines!

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Mrs-Officer.mp3]

“Mrs Officer” (Lil Wayne Cover) James Eric

Great Cover, taken straight from Sweet Serenade Vol 3, coming this month!

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Black-Bug.mp3]

“Black Bug” Wick-it

Finally a good mix of that Big Boi Tune, and a good re-use of the Black Keys.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Mayer_Hawthorne-No_Strings_DJ_Jazzy_Jeff_Remix.mp3]

“No Strings” Mayer Hawthorne (Jazzy Jeff Rmx)

Jazzy Jeff delivers and somehow this remix is more exciting than most of his late efforts.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/FuckYou.mp3]

“F**k You” William Shattner (Cee Lo Green Cover)

A cover version as only Captain Kirk can deliver. Bleep my captain says. Video rip.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Ill-be-your-Pillow-Eliza-Doolittle.mp3]

“I’ll be your Pillow” Eliza Doolittle

Not really new, just me being late on her, but i am hooked on Eliza Doolittles music.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Janelle_Monae-Without_A_Fight.mp3]

“Without a Fight” Janelle Monae

Its Janelle Monae and that means its good these days. Soulful double timer and JMs edgy vocals.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/tightrope.mp3]

“Tightrope” (Janelle Monae Cover) Conor J. O Brien from Villagers

Cant go wrong with this tune.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Mountain-Top.mp3]

“Mountain Top” Bedouin Soundclash

The Guitar tune belongs to Bedouin Soundclash.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Rudies-all-around-Hepcat.mp3]

“Rudies all around” Hepcat

A little re-discovered gem that i had on a late 90ies comp, dont know anything else bout it, but some great reggae primer.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Sarah-Blasko-%E2%80%93-Hey-Ya-Outkast-Cover.mp3]

“Hey Ya” (Outkast Cover) Sarah Blasko

Another great Cover, we’ve played the Obediah version years ago, still Sarah Blasko has nice voice, the songs a great pop tune and another ipod favourite at present.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Talib-Kweli-1st-Time.mp3]

“1st Time” Talib Kweli

Kwelis comeback tune. Talib does it, the sample does the rest. Simple as that.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Think-It-Over.mp3]

“Think It Over” Bilal a soulful gem, we’ve had the accoustic version on here before and this one is almost as good, but Bilal stands the test and is definitely the successor of the 70ies soul legends.

Kanyes been putting out tune after tune on a weekly basis for the past 3 months or so. These two are noteworthy besides, a few others (most notably Monster) that we had up on the site before.

[audio:http://www.chromemusic.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Chain-Heavy.mp3]

“Chain Heavy” Kanye West f. Talib Kweli & Consequence
