There’s heavyweight remixers, and then there’s HEAVYWEIGHT remixers. No reference to the newly svelt Rick Rubin’s physical size, in a week that has already seen Damon Albarn save Lana Del Rey from the internet doghouse, the super-producer has “ruined” Justice’s bombastic “On’n'On” by removing much of the arena bombast of the original and turning it into a slowburn discofied cut begging to be dropped by DJs from DFA to Dixon.

When I was 11 years old, I went to a demolition derby on a family vacation to Niagara Falls. While their, the announcer called out my seat number and a won a case of Otter Pops. It was, up until that point, the greatest day fo my life.
Perhaps that’s why this new video from ZZT, the collaborations between Tiga and Zombie Nation, gets me so excited. Particularly the quick fame at 1:31. Or maybe it’s the squelching melodic acid lines that get my blood pumping. “Partys Over Los Angeles” is the first video from ZZT’s debut album, Partys Over Earth, which is due out Nov. 7 on Tiga’s Turbo Recordings.

Turbo Records is releasing an EP compiling their fave remixes of recent Turbo tunes, played heavily at Turbo artist tours over the summer, which included Tiga, Chromeo, Felix da Housecat and otherTurbo acts—or something like that. Branding confuses me sometimes. Here’s Diplo doing the Diplo on Proxy’s Turbo release “8000.” Kinda cool how he takes the exact same exotic flute-type intrument sample that sounded Eastern Europeans in the original, and makes it feel totally tropical. But again, that’s what a Diplo does, doesn’t it Dr. Seuss?
