DJ Aristocat

I have two 12"s by DJ Aristocat and the other one is boatloads better. I can't find it though so until then, this will have to do. There are three tracks on the record (with two added instrumentals that I didn't bother to rip.) The first track is a mix of DMX's Disco Inferno with the Cure's Close to Me. The second track is Chris Isaac's Wicked Game with some song I don't know. The third track is The Nerd Anthem.

The Electro Project 12"

I'm not really sure where I got this 12" from. I think my brother bought it for me in London. The A side contains the uptown and downtown versions of Yam Who?s remix of Genius of Love. The B side is Si Begg's Al Naafiysh. Both are great.

The original is of course by the Tom Tom Club and the video is very cartoony.

Flagrant Fowl 12"

I picked up this 12" the other day at Turntable Lab. It includes a remix of Lykke Li's Breaking It Up as well as remixes of Kanye's Love Lockdown and Champion. Flagrant Fowl is made up of Brooklyn DJ's Cousin Cole & Pocketknife. The Kanye remixes are definitely stronger than the Lykke Li one.

Ahmed Fakroun/Belle Epoque 12"

I just picked up this 12" this afternoon at Turntable Lab. The Belle Epoque track is definitely stronger but both are really good. Check out the space disco/country house video of Bamalama below. Both video and 12" are highly recommended!

Time Zone - World Destruction 12"

In 1984 John Lydon of Sex Pistols fame teamed up with Afrika Bambaataa to release this 12". I just learned that he's the stepfather of Ari Up of The Slits.

Lindstrom & Christabelle - Music (In My Mind) 12"

I think I got this 12" at Turntable Lab...or my brother gave it to me for my birthday. It's pretty good but I like the Lindstrom/Prins Thomas stuff better.
