Boys Noize - Roulé and Crydamoure Mix

The blogosphere has been abuzz thanks to an "unreleased Daft Punk remix of N.E.R.D." that Boys Noize played on SiriusXM's Electric Area. This was however quickly dispelled as a mashup of Imagination's track "Changes" and an acapella of N.E.R.D.'s "She Wants To Move." The youtube video which features a direct cut of the track from Boys Noize's tribute mix to Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo's labels' Roulé and Crydamoure, has been shared and viewed thousands of times. Despite Boys Noize addressing the fact that there is no unreleased Daft Punk remix of N.E.R.D., he's continued to categorize it as such, in the tracklist he's provided with both his youtube and soundcloud uploads of the mix. Despite being included in the tracklist, the mashup has been edited out of what was an hour long mix. However you can still hear it from the original rip by Finley Gomez, here. That controversy aside, the mix itself is one of the more well thought out and put together tributes in recent memory. Utterly enjoyable and frightfully funky, the hour features a bunch of Thomas Bangalter credits, as well as classics from DJ Falcon, Le Knight Club and of course, the obligatory french touch, Roulé record, Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You." The nostalgia from this mix is next level so be prepared to be transported to French nightclubs in the mid to late 90s.

But if controversy is what you're looking for, perhaps this mashup was intentionally miscredited as unreleased Daft Punk to build hype for the duo's new track with The Weeknd, "Starboy." But I'll let you be the judge of that. Since it first dropped Wednesday, "Starboy" has been polarizing in the electronic community, many decrying Daft Punk for selling out, while others cannot sing their praises enough. Again, enjoy it if you will, or not. It's your life, and although music is awesome when shared, it truly is a personal product.

2Pac - Changes (Shemce Remix)

Shemce is back with yet another amazing pop remix, carefully crafted for the club. After achieving success and overwhelming acclaim for his remixes of deadmau5' "Strobe," A$AP Rocky's "LSD," and Tinashe's "Cold Sweat," he was tapped to drop an official remix for Audien's "Something Better." Now he's gone back further into his roots, reworking the uber classic jam from 2Pac, "Changes." Shemce knocks this one out of the park, breathing life into the decades old track, firmly supplanting it in the club, making it just that much more danceable. He's now successfully brought both sides of the east coast/west coast rivalry, into the future. Check out his first soundcloud release, his remix of Notorious B.I.G. "Juicy." The brilliance in Shemce's production value is the care he uses in maintaining the original spirit and feel from the vocals, while surrounding it with his vibing style. It's clear these tracks hold a special place in his heart as he leaves so much of the original track intact. His subtle, yet powerful production value makes his tracks surefire dance-floor sirens; luring enchanted listeners to the floor, forever more. This Shemce-inspired euphoria ensures you'll be hearing more from his beautiful mind in the future. Be prepared for a rush of "dem feels" when you throw Shemce on your speakers.
