Sash!

a century of lonely nights

And this was meant to go up last November… oops.

Christina Aguilera – Genie 2.0

And here it is, the full version of this from the VMAs. I really like it, but having listened to the short version again and again and again, this version feels a bit too long–actually, 1:21 too long to be exact. Still, I love the strings.

Sash! feat. Stunt – Raindrops (Encore Une Fois) (Fonzerelli Club Remix)

I often find long mixes of songs boring and repetitive. But I absolutely adore Fonzerelli’s short remix of Raindrops, and his long version is perfectly executed–the anticipation builds and builds until the multi-tracked chorus explodes in a well-worth-it release.

Katy Perry – Hot N Cold (Bimbo Jones Remix Radio Edit)

As light and fun as the Jason Nevins mix while often sounding like the beginning of The Cure’s Just Like Heaven.

Christina Aguilera – Keeps Getting Better (Tom Neville Club Remix)

The original of this: nice but nothing to write home about. Tom Neville’s take: driving, pulsing, actually better.

Forever the Sickest Kids – Whoa Oh! (Me vs Everyone)

Nice emo rock song with a fantastically catchy chorus.

i don’t care what you think, as long as it’s about me

Fall Out Boy – I Don’t Care (Cobra Starship Suave Suarez Remix)

First I love the narcissism of the chorus. Then I love the bombast that Cobra Starship adds compared to the original.

Sash! feat. Stunt – Raindrops (Encore Une Fois) (Fonzerelli Rework Radio Edit)

Fonzerelli takes the chorus somewhere completely unexpected, and it’s amazing.

Paul Oakenfold feat. Ryan Tedder – Not Over (Oakenfold 2008 Remix)

The downward progression during the chorus is so good.

Katy Perry – Hot N Cold (Jason Nevins Radio Edit)

I loved the original, and I love this remix even more. It’s uncontrollably joyous. There’s bouncy synth! There’s a superfluous mini guitar solo at the end! I can’t resist.
