Blog Wars: The Genius Playlist | Round 2, Battle 1

On the last battle of Round 1, Music Is Art took PMA on. They were a worthy adversary — one that almost got us beat! But in the end, PMA won with 51% of the votes (by the smallest margin yet!). Now, now, I won’t say much because I’m sure plenty of people are ready to tell me that PMA won because of the “homefield advantage.” Maybe so, eh?

But what’s done is done so let’s move one the the Second Round of this Blog War! To remind you all, the blogs that made it were: Sheena Beaston, We All Want Someone, Nialler9, The Culture of Me, and Pretty Much Amazing. Because Sheena Beaston beat Pigeons and Planes by the biggest margin (26%), she get’s a freebie this round and is automatically placed in the finals. The last battle will be a Winner-Takes-All style threesome — the winner will be our Blog Champion.

Also trying to secure a spot in the finals are Nialler9 and The Culture of Me who are both in this rumble, fighting to the tune of “Voyager” by Daft Punk. A classic, indeed. Enough talk, let’s bring the Genius Playlists out. Continue reading →

Mixmag Presents: Soulwax / Part Of NYE Never Dies

Mixmag Presents: Soulwax / Part Of NYE Never Dies mp3

Mixmag and Soulwax teamed up for their January issue on a little disc called “Part of NYE Never Dies.” It’s a 14 track retrospect of some of the biggest tunes that the 2ManyDJs have been playing, remixing or just enjoying throughout 2008. It includes tracks and remixes from Tiga, Late of the Pier, MGMT, The Chemical Brothers, Mr Oizo, Zombie Nation and more.

Enough of the pleasantries. Let’s talk about NYE (New Years Eve for you slowpokes reading this) for a bit. Maybe I’m alone here, but I think it’s pretty overrated. It’s never as fun as its supposed to be, I guess. Basically Soulwax wants to make me believe that, through this mix, “Part” of my NYE will be, in fact, immortal. Now, I’ve never partied NYE Soulwax-style before, so here’s what I’m going to do: this NYE, I’m going to blast this fantastic mix all night long — or maybe I’ll throw in a few others I have downloaded this year — and see if NYE 2008/2009 is any better than the otrocious NYE I had almost 365 days ago.

Read on the the tracklisting and the free download Continue reading →
