Not Many Experts

I know that this is almost completely unrelevant, but for some reason I am really excited about Daft Punk right now, and I have no idea why. There was this rumour going round at Leeds last year that they were going to play a secret set on the last night, and I was all like “woahhh… sounds awesome!”, but I’ve just been left thinking; surely they’ve got to hit some festivals this Summer? According to Busy P, they’re in the studio in Paris at the moment working on new material. Yes, it’s going to take years, but it WILL BE AMAZING! Until then, just listen to how good this song is from the Alive 2007 album.

Daft Punk – Around The World / Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger

Mano has been very unfortunate; at the same time his publicists (wedonotfollow.com) sent round some unreleased remixes of his to be posted on selected blogs, not only had zshare plunged itself into a copyright coma (allegedly) so we couldn’t download the songs, but on the only blog that managed to post the tracks (Hot Biscuits), the recent intensified enforcement of copyrights meant that the tracks were removed almost straight away by t’internet Nazis. Not before hundreds of people could start getting excited about the tracks though.
Almost a week later, with zshare still broken, I managed to get hold of the remixes yesterday. The businessman in me said “Post them noooow and get some heavy traffic going to line my pockets”, however I still have some blogger-integrity (blog-egrity?) left and thought it was my duty to give them a spin and some quality control first. And yes, as you might have guessed, as they always have been, Mano’s remixes are absolutely quality. I haven’t been this excited about remixes since… well I’m not sure really, Mano just seems to get it right every time!

He’s a shrewd guy as well, if you remix such huge tracks as “Lady” by Modjo, “Pogo” by Digitalism, “Stronger” by Kanye West, “We Are Your Friends” by Justice vs Simian, “One More Time” By Daft Punk, and Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab”, you are going to attract some attention from the blogosphere.

Such blatant populist tactics would usually deter me from posting said material, but I think that everybody really needs to get an earful of Mano’s new stuff. Get them before someone deletes them!

Check out his other work, especially the old Digitalism and Modjo remixes: (myspace.com/milliondollamano)
