I Would Like To Call It Beauty (Freddie Joachim Reprise) by Corinne Bailey Rae
Freddie Joachim's ever growing body of work contains both some original songs and a diverse plethora of remixes and reworkings of music from the likes of Vikter Duplaix, Toro Y Moi, Esthero and now Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter/musician Corinne Bailey Rae. For his latest remix Joachim selected Rae's "I Would Like To Call It Beauty" off her 2010 album The Sea. Joachim transforms the original folksy number into a lively record accented by the addition of more upbeat drums. Give the tune a listen and check out Overture, an unofficial compilation featuring some of Freddie's recent work. (via EARMILK)
Psilo by Pasta Groove
Presenting the future of Original Pinoy Music or OPM. Paolo Garcia more known as Pasta Groove is always busy brewing up what clearly is the future of local production. Cycling through old vinyl records and chopping them up in order to create that perfect beat to embody what we consider very good music. "Psilo" is his latest offering and it does not stray-away from greatness. It's all sorts of chill and it instantly melts in the ear just like candy. Alongside soulful vocals of Armi Mallari from Up Dharma Down, it just doesn't get any fresher than this. Music for the soul.
Who Are You (Lee Bannon Remix) by Bilal
Sacramento producer Lee Bannon is here to continue the Plug Research label’s winning streak this week with an eerie, experimental remix of Bilal’s “Who Are You." The remix, released via Soundcloud to hype Bannon’s forthcoming Fantastic Plastic, sets Bilal’s vocals over some distinctly extraterrestrial soul, with nearly subliminal drums coexisting with big, wide open bass notes, making for a sound I can only describe as “vintage Martian Motown.” It’s an interesting and original track to be sure, and it serves a dual purpose of getting us pumped up for Bannon’s album and reminding the world at large that it would be fantastic if we didn’t have to wait nine years for the next Bilal album.
