Freeformers Top 5! By John St John

Yo!!! John St John's kept it fun this week with his top 5. Great set of tracks together, check him out at Taboo tonight if your in the valley!



Bag Raiders - Shooting Stars (Shazam Dub Remix)

I love the original Shooting Stars by Bag Raiders for two reasons. Firstly cause of that super sweet "Wahh, Wah, Wah. Wa Wa Wahhh Wa Wa" sound. You know what I'm talking about. And secondly because it those really cool unassuming vocals in the first half. Sounds a bit like Girl & The Sea by the Presets. But I think the second half's vocals are bit Bon Jovi "Livin' on a Prayer" for Indie Disco. Not that Livin' on a Prayer isn't a bad ass song; Check out how the Avalanches drop it at Splendour '06. They get the crowd to sing and then mash it up. What a mind fuck!



Errr... but yeah this is a cool remix cause it just takes that wahh wahh wahh bit and discoes it up a bit. There is a vocal version floating around the internets as well.

Actually its on my mix for Horror Disco!

Positively seamless self promotion.

Inflagranti - Brash & Vulgar

Wait til it gets half way. You'll know what I'm talking about. The people went mad... when they heard that!

Deekline & Wizard - Back Up (Krafty Kuts Remix)



Krafty Kuts is just a wizard innit. This song even has a pseudo dub step interlude in the middle. Yeahhhh breakksss yeahh.

Alex Metric - Head Straight



Nice vocal indie disco track. Great tingly synths on the chorus.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll (A-Trak Remix)



I think there was a lot of cream in jeans when A-Trak dropped this one at Parklife.
