Shuffle A Dream (Alison Wonderland Remix) by Little Dragon
Check out Alison Wonderland’s hot remix of “Shuffle A Dream” by Little Dragon. Rhythmically not straying too far from the original, now with a new depth and roundness to the bass portion, while sporting a subtle synth riff that has been pulled straight out the 1980's, complimented by that gated/short decay snare, a la Phil Collins. Tune. (via Party By Jake)
Little Man (Vindata Remix) by Little Dragon
Yukimi Nagano’s voice is truly one of a kind. I hear all sorts of good female vocals everyday, but nothing compares to the mystique-like vocals of Yukimi. Vindata makes good use of it and Little Dragon's "Little Man" and remixes it with a fuller, electro taste compared to the original.
Twice (DJ Twist Remix) by Little Dragon
Late night stumbling around YouTube threw up this track by the mysterious DJ Twist, who operates only through that YouTube channel. Although we’ve no idea who DJ Twist is, we love this remix of Little Dragon he’s behind. Twist provides the track with a beautiful piano-based backing – crossing almost into Nujabes territory – underscoring a chipmunked rendition of Little Dragon’s original.
While we’d normally steer away from chipmunking like the plague, it actually works pretty well here, fitting into the mellow groove of this track. (via Indie Shuffle)
Twice (Oliver Rado Remix) by Little Dragon
I did a little about this guy named Oliver Rado who just recently did a remix of Little Dragon's "Twice" but I can't find much on him. What a mystery. Anyway, excellent work on Swedish synth-pop original! The German producer giving some love to the track, dropping almost 8 minutes worth of laid back mid-tempo beats over the original's already steady vibe. Awesome!
Ritual Union (The Polish Ambassador Remix) by Little Dragon
David Sugalski, a.k.a. - Ample Mammal, a.k.a. The Polish Ambassador is a beat machine from the future. Hailing simultaneously from the far reaches of other dimensional Universes and... Oakland, California, this dude drops his own unique blend of electro-funked, glitch-tweaked, wobble-freaked breakbeats that will have you dropping that bottom like it was 92.....3092, that is.
Says TPA:
Not sure I heard about Little Dragon until their most recent album. I'm pretty sure it was the song Ritual Union that got me on board the bandwagon. Have not caught them live yet, but have had them on my play lists for some time now. I hit up their management, and they sent me the stems to Ritual Union. It was a pleasure and honor to be able to remix a group that's currently blowing up and for good reason. These musicians are way talened. This free emix comes on the heels of my Bon Iver - Perth remix. Another dreamy inditronica anthem, this time with a little more pep to set your day in motion on a positive note. So, here it is. The Polish Ambassador remix of Little Dragon's Ritual Union.

Crystalfilm (Dan Caster & Sascha Braemer Edit) by Little Dragon
Have you heard this Little Dragon edit? It's by Dan Caster and Sascha Braemer and it's just quality. I'm not sure really how to describe the track but I'm pretty sure it was handled with care. It just sounds so sleek and glamorous. Kind of dragging though but if you're in that chill out mode or maybe hanging by the beach, this song "Crystalfilm" is perfect! Wait for it to hit that 1 minute mark, beats will start rolling in by then.
Scale It Back (Milo Firewater Remix) by DJ Shadow
DJ Shadow's "Scale It Back" always a favorite on #ANT. His good mix of chilled-out indie music infused with hip-hop beats has come a long way for him. Now we have Milo Firewater doing a version like no other, a remix of DJ Shadow's collaboration with Yukimi Nagano from Little Dragon.

Cocaine (Little Dragon Kåkejn Remix) by The Internet

Scale It Back (Robotaki Remix) by DJ Shadow
And a round of applause for a first Robotaki post. Reading more on this guy lead me to ready made remixes from the likes of Shinichi Osawa, Housse De Racket, Chilly Gonzales and a few beats for those Korean hotties they call Girls' Generation, all found in his Soundcloud. Here's more on Robotaki...
"Hey! My name's Preston and I’m 20 years old. As "Robotaki," I produce music between the other happenings of my life, something I've been doing for about 4-5 years so far. I'm now in first year university at McGill University at Montreal, Quebec. Analog sounds and raw waveforms have a warm place in my heart.I plan to maintain music as an active part of my life, despite the seemingly differing career choices I'm heading towards at the moment. As far as the production hardware and software goes, I run FL Studio 9 on an average computer bought in 2008 with an array of VSTs.The only "hardware" I use is literally the keyboard, mouse, a decent pair of AKG headphones, and the screen, and maybe the nearby desk lamp since that gives me a bit of light haha. Safe to say, I'm dying to get my hands on my first controller soon. For remix and production inquiriesabraham@bigdog.fm"
His latest work is from a recent from DJ Shadow who is apparently hosting a remix competition for his "Scale It Back" song featuring the awesome vocals of Little Dragon lead, Yukimi Nagano. In my opinion, after hearing Robotaki's entry, competition over. We have a winner!
Obviously a perfect track to begin with, Robotaki simply enhances the elements of the song and effectively adding his mark to it but not too much to overdose. This kid has... Is potential. Happy to be able to post about him.
Video: Scale It Back (feat. Little Dragon) by DJ Shadow
Today I have new visuals from the Shadow. "Scale It Back," is a collaboration DJ Shadow did with Yukimi Nagano of Little Dragon. A unique video which features the absurd. It is included in Shadow's current The Less You Know, The Better which was released last September via Verve. Video stream after this jump.
Casey Raymond and Ewan James Morris' display of visual art is impressive being that this video was one continues shot all in all. The creepy guy at the beginning was not at all a factor.
Ritual Union (Captain Planet Remix) by Little Dragon
Captain Planet is the funky, globe-trotting alter-ego of Charlie B. Wilder (a.k.a. Chuck Wild). He enjoys making a lot of music. Whether Hip-Hop, Electro, Latin, Reggae, House or Funk, name it and he makes it. Also a club DJ and rapper for his electro hip-hop group, The Beatards. He has been known to do it all including this cut from one of my favorites, Little Dragon, and their track off the latest album of the same title, "Ritual Union."
