"Wait Up (Boots of Danger)" Remix

I love this song to begin with, but this remix has made it much more enjoyable. Boys Like Us is a project of Rostam Batmanglij's. The original song is by Tokyo Police Club; Newmarket, Ontario's very own. (source and download)

While on the subject of remixes, I must say that DJ Earworm is quite the distraction. It's difficult to concentrate on scientific lab reports when you stumble upon a talent like him. The line "I gotta feeling... I found God" cracks me up every time.

A human experience, through audio.

Despite its title, the Drop covers all genres, including EDM. It focussed primarily on the local Toronto scene until 2013, after which most of my written music coverage shifted to The B-Side, a publication friends and I founded at UC Berkeley. During that time, this page has held more poetry and personal musings, but as of 2017, I'm back to covering what I did best here -- new and unique sounds.
