Whoa it's been a month? Where have I been? Not to worry, this post should make up for lost time! What do I have for you? Only on the most amazing music site/concept I've come across in the past year!
Indieshuffle.com ---this is where it's at my friends!!
There are still some kinks because it's new but this site has some of the best remixes and currently hot songs you may never heard of. There are also links to free downloads of the songs you hear.
Started by this guy Jason Grishkoff from South Africa in 2009, just wanting to share music with friends because he was passionate about it he researches all indie bands and posts some really original stuff, sound familar?? he may even make this blog obsolete:)
Right now I've bookmarked several things feel free to also look them up for:
Blood Diamond's remix of Ellie Goulding's new track Anything Can Happen (the original is standard E.G. but it's very one dimensional and not up to par, so this takes it to the next level that allows it to reach ''hit'' status

Any remix done by RAC is always fresh and really improves upon the original
Here's one from Hockey. (a band I've never heard of previous to today)
http://www.indieshuffle.com/hockey-too-fake-rac-remix/
People want to dance damnit! and that's waht RAC understands, but their approach is always to maintain the what's great and ''rock'' based theme of the song.. Hockey on it's own has a Strokes/Vaccines complaint/strain heartbroken rockstar type of vibe ''I'm just too fake for the world, I got too much soul for you'' How do I relate to this? I just do!:)
Also this is a favorite remix done by RAC of Tokyo Police Club (Courtesy of Spotify)
Tokyo Police Club – Be Good (RAC Remix) great song, kind of meloncholy on it's own but the remix brings an 80's vibe with the handclap + keyboards but not in a cheesy way. Again makes it more approachable and danceworthy
I think we can all agree that all the of singles released on Foster's the People album Torches have been played out and desperately want to hear something new from them!
RAC's remix of Houdini makes it brand spanking new to your ears!!(found originally on indieshuffle.com)

Another gem I found from indieshuffle.com Is a band called How To Dress Well, check out this unreleased track (which is why the link is from YouTube)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYMk-wv0kJ8
It's got a old school early 90's R&B/Color Me Bad Vibe (oh yes, I went there) because on a Saturday Morning don't you just like to go back to your awkward adolescence?? look at old pictures and listen to all the embarrassing cd's you own back then? if you want to add a little cheese factor to your life and have an excuse to act silly put this song on!
Impressed yet? Yeah me too! Thanks Indieshuffle.com! Now go like the page and explore!
Glad to be back!
Also, a new playlist in progress! Let me know what you think.. the theme is Youth is Wasted on the Young, thoughts!
