Noisettes+ Kanye=Pure Genius



Mick Boogie and Terry Urban have done it again. They have combined two great music combos and produced an eargasmic list of 8 tunes on the Wild Young Heartbreaks. They set Noisettes songs against Kanye's 808s & Heartbreaks.
The thing that makes Boogie so good is that he totally combines the songs. He doesn't just mend them together. He changes the tempos and some instruments of Kanye's songs for the background and keeps the Noisettes lyrics and melodies the same. So basically you'll be listening to this an be like "oh my goodness this sounds familiar!" Just like sampling, but more intense. One really good example of this is "Cheap Cops." I love it, the strings version of "Robo Cop" is awesome.
If you haven't heard of the Noisettes, look them up. They are an indie rock band from London. The lead singer, Shingai Shoniwa, blows my mind. Her voice is so powerful. I'm starting to think London only breeds strong and powerful singers...it's kind of ridiculous. They have the funky Janelle Monae feel with a more rock feel.
Get this mix here.
Here are 2 tracks I really like.
