Darude -- The Best Of

It's been a while since the "team-of-one" have made any posts on the blogger side of things, Facebook has been getting some unique to FB posts. It's high time I added some more of the good stuff here.

First of all, two of the most played club tracks ever, remixed countless times and still enjoyable today.

These will certainly need no introduction to anybody who has ever owned ears:

Darude -- Feel The Beat

--> Not too bad quality video, hosted by google so there is plenty of bandwidth on the servers for quick loading/buffering.

--> Give it a whack: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-507963164309110158#

--> 8.5


Darude -- Sandstorm

--> Quality is a little pants, but that is made up for in the quick load time thanks to being hosted by (the now redundant -- they own youtube) "the googs."

--> Some slapping required: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3160476304834958368#

--> 9

High And Dry -- Radiohead

An epic tune with some excellent lyrics:


"Flying on your motorcycle watching all the ground beneath you drop.
You'd kill yourself for recognition, kill yourself to never ever stop."

"You broke another mirror, you're turning into something you are not."

Give it a bash:

Project Cosmonaut

A beaut of a high energy, quick-paced, super-synth driven track. Aren't I good with cheap words?!

A good bit of Goa might be just what the doctor ordered, especially if things are sh*t at the moment, this might just be the boost you need to enter the sublime world of "those that fly above the crowds."

A real feel good belter this is.

I highly recommend the FLAC version, choose the "EKTO FLAC" link below.

Finger Eleven -- Good Times

A nice and powerful, thick sound with semi-clear vocals.

It's like if you crossed an emo with "Disturbed."

Not quite disturbed and not quite worthless utter shite either. An amusing hybrid that seems to work and not work at the precise same time.

Blast on the b*stard:

6.5

009 Sound System -- Standing Stones

An interesting and somewhat mellow piece. With periods of energy "interspliced" with some interesting riffs and whatnot.

Recommended background music for a slow day.

Doesn't necessarily have to be played loud to be enjoyed, clarity and volume are however a plus, if your 'gear is capable of both simultaneously.

Overall, a nice chilled track.

BEST OF '09 PSYTRANCE!

Now, it's long been established that any stealing of useful links to free or excellent music that can be legally played/obtained has been a little secretive.

But.. today the "Team Of One" (I, moi, me, yours truly) blow open the doors because in one of my RSS feeds I have got a summary of '09 and her best moozik.


Check it out and get smashin'!

(I have much of the psytrance listed in the post and can confirm that there is some incredible stuff there. Download the lot in FLAC format if you can afford the extra discspace and bandwidth.)

Everything But The Girl -- Missing

A golden oldie which you will no doubt have heard. A reliable piece of background music that used to be all the rage back in the day and is still played now and then.

"Like the deserts miss the rain.." gotta love that lyric!

There are also tonnes of versions and remixes, but for the moment I will list just one version -- the original mix.

(Given the tracks age, it's difficult to get a reliable link to a good"ish" quality source, so it's tough guff ya whingey sods. hehe)
