launch into space with our power-c[hart]
seriously? it’s wednesday already? damn…. but don’t get stuck in the middle, listen to our chart of the best of the best. it’s more best than george best in a best of britain competition of bestness. ghet it? :) so… this week has been a bit dull on the official chart front, i guess promotional remixes ain’t what they used to be, but, have no fear! crack open a chilled bottle of power-c and listen to these little beauties!!!! who needs charts eh?! (except ours, nudge nudge, wink wink)
beyonce – broken hearted girl (alex braxe dub)
boys noize – gax
miike snow – black & blue (caspa remix) [[recommended]]
the sounds – no one sleeps when i’m awake (viking remix)
michael jackson – ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone (benny blanco remix) [[recommended]]
ps… this is a picture of me. had some pwoer-c and blasted into space. serious.

 


warning! achtung! atenci��n! dad joke intercepted….. “this guy certainly has some balls“. well if you think you can do better or have a talent unique in it’s own right then we definitely want to hear from you. it’s dead simple, just film your amazing talent and pop along to our competition page the berry factor to enter. full details are on the competition page and terms and conditions. I really didn’t think you’d want me to rattle on about it in this post.
ps… make sure you watch the video all the way to the end as it gets a bit insane.
pps…. don’t be intimidated. he’s not entering ;)

 


you that legendary tune called ‘blue monday?’ well, how do you feel? not blue i hope, but if you do then listen to us as we’re feeling roughly 112% amazing. there are a few reasons for this, one is that XXX is in town and also the fact that we have the monday revival! this track produced by sweden’s dubstep masters l-wiz sneeks up on you and gives you a chinese burn instead of a kiss. it may sting, but certainly gets you moving. now, set this as your alarm and your boss will love you for never being late to work again!!!

 


says it all really ;) have a great weekend!

 

lego t-shirt

this is the captain of the ship, calling. pow pow pow! it’s time for the wednesday power-c[hart] to keep you afloat during the midweek low tide. so what’s the music news this week, who’s in and who’s out who’s racing up the charts faster than usain bolt on a treadmill?
hockey – song away (jack beats anger management remix)
florence & the machine – drumming song (boy 8-bit remix)
fuzzy logic ft. egypt – in the morning
pitbull – hotel room service (trickbabies remix)
but what you’re all probably waiting to hear is dj talent’s single ‘i say britain’ well, it’s not out until next week so hold tight for a few more days. will this reach number one?!?

 

if you saw our post about the forkless bicycle then check out this site where they’ve made a forkless motocycle. now that’s just darn ker-razy! http://www.dotsondesign.com/

 


morning morning morning! so good they named it thrice. how was your little weekend you? Well it’s the weekbegin and you’re probably in need of a little pick me up, well that’s why we’re here! Now normally for the monday revival we like to get the blood pumping with some rolling basslines but today we’ve gone for something a little softer – everyone’s different. shinichi osawa is a secret hero of ours and he’s back with some more beautiful remixes that just had to be shared. this time he’s firming up a track by californian girls rubies. check the myspace for the original which is a funky stream of pop with a sweet electro undercurrent. if that doesn’t sort you for the day then i don’t know what will, just tune in and vanquish those hundreds of emails in a flashanory!
remember, if you feel like your body needs something a bit louder, prouder and all out banging then check out our past monday revivals: total revival

 


for a while i’ve been thinking we haven’t featured enough keyboard cat on the site, mainly because it doesn’t give us the lift that we all really need on a friday. until now.
we just had to share this little gem which i have to claim is the ultimate version of keyboard cat we’ve ever seen and is a sure-fire way of getting anyone going! As well, be sure to listen to the wednesday’s power-c[hart]
have a good weekend + let us know your thoughts on this masterpiece
