Two New Tracks by Dan Digs – “Dancing In The Snow At Sunrise” & “Flying Into Seattle” (Free MP3 Download)

Posted in Amazingly Good Songs by Dan on January 20, 2012

Two new tracks for yas.

1. “Dancing In The Snow At Sunrise”

Inspired by slow house, raves, synths, burbling basslines, and snow days in Seattle.

 

2. “Flying Into Seattle”

An experimental, lo-fi kind of feeling inspired by soaring above and subsequently landing in one of the world’s greatest cities.

 

Hope you enjoy. More download options for these tracks available here.

Viewing notes:

1. This is some of the greatest dancing since MJ. And one of the best music videos ever.

2. I actually and involuntarily “laughed out loud” at 0:23.

3. Defying death and/or local metropolitan transport ordinances by dancing in formation on top of moving buses is a complete win.

 

“Take it easy” is great advice, especially when (at 1:29) you’re just chillaxing with your bro’s ON TOP OF A GIANT BILLBOARD. NO BIG DEAL.

The Skints – “On a Mission” (Katy B Cover) (Official Video)

Posted in Amazingly Good Songs, Best Great Videos by Dan on January 13, 2012

East London ska-dubsters The Skints take on Katy B’s “Katy on a Mission” and expertly execute a smooth, blissed, dubstyle reggae version of the original.

Things to enjoy:

1. The slow nod of eternal happiness at 1:58.

2. The Darth Vader head-shaped alarm clock wearing a fez at 2:35. (I need one of those, pronto.)

3. The greatest and gentlest reggae whisper-toasting you’ve ever heard at 2:40.

 

Still waiting for the bluegrass and death metal refixes.
