Copycat's Top 10 March
@ AudioPorn Central



Tremendous music month, it's been. Had a really hard time deciding on the top 10 this month. So it became a top 15 - with 5 extra mashups. And several Bonus Beats... (Check the comments). As usual, you'll find the full, agggregate, official APC Top 10 over at AudioPornCentral.com. And guess who made it all the way to the top...

#01 The Aikiu – The Red Kiss [link]
No remix can do this original justice. One of my faves from 2010 finally on APC.
#02 Hercules and Love Affair – Shelter (The XX Cover) [link]
Nothing short of amazing. A fave track covered by a fave band.
#03 Metronomy – The Look [link]
Brilliant. Watch out for the Fred Falke remix – huge!
#04 Mark Morrison – Return of the Mack (Guy Gadobis Remix) [link]
It’s tres bien, you kneuow…
#05 The Human League – Never Let Me Go (Aeroplane Remix) [link]
This is so right. In so many ways. Do I even need to elaborate?!
#06 Logan Lynn – Quickly As We Pass [link]
Mellow electro pop goodness. Lovely! Surprise of the month!
#07 Pacific! – Unspoken (Anoraak Remix) [link]
Sweden’s Pacific! are back with lovely dreamy and laidback electro disco vibes
#08 Shit Robot – Losing My Patience (Hot Chip Remix) [link]
Ah, this is so good it hurts. Night shift electro drama…
#09 The Ramones – Blitzkrieg Bop (Drop Out Orchestra Rework) [link]
Defies both belief and ANY reasonable categorization and description. Mental as ever. And brilliant.
#10 Das Pop – The Game [link]
And it’s das perfect pop, too boot.
#11 She Wants Revenge – Take The World (Nadastrom Remix) [link]
Very 80s sounding take. Very good.
#12 Miles Kane – Rearrange (Skream Remix) [link]
Even if it’s not really my bag, I love the drama in this. Watch out for Miles solo album. Stunning.
#13 Depeche Mode – Policy Of Truth (DJ Tripp Club Mix 2011) [link]
Nice little re-rub of one of my fave DM tunes.
#14 Teddybears ft. Robyn – Cardiac Arrest [link]
Simple and stupid trademark Teddybears electro rock.
#15 The Strokes – Under Cover of Darkness [link]
They’re back. And they’re good – again!

MASHUPS OF THE MONTH

Kutiman – My Favorite Color [link]
Wow. WOW. Fuck dance, let’s art!
MadMixMustang – Alice in Boogie Wonderland [link]
Mad indeed. Insane rock disco. Extra plus for the title.
Fissunix – I was made just for show [link]
Wow! KISS meets Atmosphere in what must be the coolest move of their career.

Insane combo. So feckin cool. And it works!

John Legend - Rolling in the Deep
(A Copycat Remix)



Dunno if you've heard John Legend's magic cover of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep". Well, I just did earlier today - and rushed off to the studio...

Veronica Maggio - Jag Kommer
(Copycat Glam Rawk Remix)



Veronica Maggio goes electro glam rock - or something...
[click the down arrow to d/l]

Veronica Maggio is a Swedish singer with Italian origin. She became a household name in Sweden immediately after releasing her first single, "Dumpa mig" (Dump me), which was a huge hit in Sweden, with ample airplay.
A subsequent follow-up single, a major contract, a debut album and a national tour later, she was awarded the "Newcomer of the year"prize in the Swedish Grammy Awards.
The original version of "Jag Kommer" is a bit more, erm... modest, its raunchy lyrics notwithstanding ("Jag kommer" means "I'm coming"...).
If you enjoy this remix, why not pop over to SoundCloud and listen to my synthpop remix of her hit "Måndagsbarn" from last year. Or listen in the player on the top of the page.
