pmaCAST #3 – The “Best Remixes of 2008″ Episode

pmaCAST #2 (ft. Gnarls Barkley, Amy Winehouse, Arcade Fire, Coldplay, TV on the Radio, and more) mp3

Alright, a lot of you left comments and emails asking me to podcast this years Best Remixes list, so here you have it. This is probably the only time I will have an episode of the pmaCAST be 100% remix. I know you have to be in a certain mood to listen to a remix, so I tend to steer clear from those in podcasts. Whatever the case, let me know how/if you like your remixes on your podcasts.

Not much so say here, refer to my Best Remixes of 2008 list for more on why I chose the remixes that I did. Enjoy your almost-an-entire hour of pmaCAST. A less danceable podcast is to come in a few days. I’m already almost done with it.

MGMT – Kids (Petshop Boys Synthpop Remix)
Kid Sister & Kanye West – Pro Nails (Simian Mobile Disco Remix)
M.I.A. – Paper Planes (Remix for the Children by Adrock)

Some Remixes on a Sunday

Some Remixes on a Sunday listen

It’s Sunday and I’m sort of bummed. Bummed because I can’t go here anymore and download wicked remixes every Sunday afternoon. I’m sure many people here feel the same way, so here’s to keeping the seat warm until Palm’s Out moves over to wordpress!

PS: Wordpress is THE shit. And if you’re still on blogger, go die you need to move your butt over to Wordpress ASAP. You don’t have a single excuse. Hosting is CHEAP (~$10/month) and a domain is even CHEAPER (~10/year). Why are you still on Nazi-Blogger?? While you’re thinking this over, here are some remixes I’ve been feeling lately.

Pretty Much Amazing’s Best Albums of 2008

Pretty Much Amazings Best Albums of 2008 best of 2008
2008 was quite a year for music. Maybe it wasn’t as great as 2007, but we made due with what we had. I didn’t connect with an album in 2008 the way I connected with In Rainbows, or Neon Bible, or Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. Those were albums that had me falling in love with every track listen after listen. However, the following twenty albums are my favorite albums of 2008 and ranking them was somewhat painful/futile — which is why we came to the conclusion that numbering year-end lists was completely sacrilegious and spat in the face of music lists everywhere.

After deciding to trash the option of numbering this list, I went with dividing my Top 20 albums into 3 categories: Big Albums by Big Names, Newcomers, and Eye Openers. Are you ready? Here are Pretty Much Amazing’s 20 Favorite Albums of 2008.

Leave your top albums in the comments, if you’d like! We’d love to hear them! Oh and if you have a blog and have posted a year end list, drop the link in the comments as well!

Here’s the next installment of Pretty Much Amazing’s year-end list extravaganza. All of these remixes are top quality, hot-as-fuck, bad ass mixes that deserve to be heard again and again — even if they were whored by the Hype Machine enough. I wanted to get this list up before NYE so you can get your freak on proper. Don’t forget to leave your favorite remixes of 2008 in the comments!

Without further adieu, the best remixes of 2008 (in no particular order).
