Goldfrapp - Alive (Vampire Mix)


This is an unreleased remix of "Alive" (although you can find it on Mute's official SoundCloud page).  It's a very good rock version by Chris Ghoulstone and The Chapel of Rock.  The album art is fanmade, and it was already in the metadata of the file I downloaded, so I don't know who made it.  But it looks good.

Goldfrapp - Believer (Davide Rossi Reinterpretation)


Goldfrapp will be releasing "Believer" in September.  This is one of the remixes from the single - it's a very nice orchestral reinterpretation of the song.


The Ting Tings - Hands


This is the new single by The Ting Tings, produced by Calvin Harris.  It's more electro pop than anything on their debut album.



Kanye West - Power


I'm not that big a fan of rap music, but I saw the video for this (courtesy of Vigilant Citizen and his report) and I liked the song, so I downloaded it.

Kelis - 4th of July


This is the latest single by Kelis.  It's kind of related to the 4th of July by using fireworks as a metaphor for how one feels about another person.

Bond - Star Spangled Banner

It's Independence Day here in the US, so I thought I'd upload a patriotic song.  This is an instrumental rendition of our national anthem, 'The Star Spangled Banner' by the string quartet Bond.  This song was originally released for a compilation or something I can't remember, and is now available via iTunes as a bonus track for the album Classified.  I think this song was my very first iTunes purchase (back when it was available as a song on its own).

Madonna vs Lady GaGa - Telephone / Miles Away


I found this at the Hard Candy Music blog.  It's really good - someone took the vocals for 'Miles Away' and mixed it with the instrumental for 'Telephone'.  I love it better than both originals.
