deadmau5: Fifths (Max Zotti Remix)

 
The Max Zotti Remix of Fifths is really exciting.  It's a little long, but I love a good Electronic track that is super long.  deadmau5 is an amazing DJ from Canada and I love how I found out about him, through Paris Hilton's Twitter feed.  I used to subscribe to her Tweets when I was a Social Network freak but now that those days are over I never hear about, or from her now that I am completely done with watching Television and Tweeting.

deadmau5: Aural Psynapse (Original Mix)

 
Aural Psynapse is a great song.  I downloaded the Original Mix of Aural Psynapse last year, at the end of 2011 and it was a great way to end the year.  I understand that there is an Original Version of this song; however I have yet to hear it.  But now that I know it exists, I will be on the Hunt for Red October until I hear it.  I am so impressed with the Original Mix of Aural Psynapse that I might have to buy the Original Version at some point in my life.  deadmau5 is an amazing DJ and I highly recommend him, considering he is from my native land of Canada.

Benny Benassi featuring Gary Go: Cinema (DJ Mazza Dub Mix)

 
The DJ Mazza Dub Mix of Cinema is amazing.  Benny Benassi originally mixed this song and so therefore the original is amazing in and of itself.  However the DJ Mazza Dub Mix goes a step further and I would have to say that he is one of the most amazing DJs I have ever heard, even though I can find little to no information on him.  Apparently he is from the United Kingdom, though; and that impresses me because I love the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland since it is part of the European Union; even though it has not adopted the Euro yet.

Benny Benassi featuring Gary Go: Cinema (Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix)

 
The Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix of Cinema, featuring Gary Go is pretty good.  Benny Benassi originally mixed and mastered this song but I am pretty much in love with the remixes I have downloaded as well.  I own three versions of this song, including but not limited to the original or album version aforementioned above.  So having said that I still recommend the remixes but the original is well-done as well.

Benny Benassi featuring Gary Go: Cinema

 
The original version of Cinema is actually pretty good.  I just heard it for the first time in a long time and I must say that I didn't really give it a chance before, but that is because I didn't appreciate the vocals as much back then; and became too obsessed with the remix I downloaded of this song entitled the Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix.  That remix is actually really amazing and I highly recommend it.

Swedish House Mafia: Save the World (Zedd Remix)

 
The Zedd Remix of Save the World is an amazing remix.  It is performed or mixed by Swedish House Mafia originally, and they are a great group of DJs.  I highly recommend them and appreciate their talent considering they are from a key country or Member state of the European Union.  If you know me, then you know that's all I go on about considering that the European Union is the Beast in my mind.

Swedish House Mafia: Save the World (Radio Mix)

 
The original version of Save the World by Swedish House Mafia is pretty amazing.  The vocals in the song are not sung by any of the three DJs that comprise Swedish House Mafia and that is most likely why I prefer the beats.  The lyrics are ok and the singing is as well but the bass is what gets me.  I even went so far as to download a remix by Zedd of this song.  Swedish House Mafia is a great group of DJs and I prefer them to a lot of other DJs out there as they are more hard core.

Madonna: Love spent

 
Love Spent is a pretty good song, appearing as track number ten on Madonna’s latest album.  The only reason I decided to Blog about it was because it follows the most impressive track on the album, in my opinion, and that would be I’m a sinner.  I’m a sinner is such an amazing track that I have chose to Blog about that song numerous times.  I prefer the Benny Benassi produced tracks on MDNA but some of the William Orbit tracks are pretty good too.

Madonna: I’m a sinner

 
I'm a Sinner is quite possibly my favorite song from MDNA.  It is either that or Girl Gone Wild.  I can never decide with religious connetations.  One talks about God, but the other talks about Jesus and Mary.  Those three characters are quite possibly my three favorite characters in the world.  I mean, I don't know who could top that although there have been imitators.  I'm a Sinner is definitely a track worth checking out.

Madonna: Superstar

 
Superstar has not been released as a single to MDNA and will most likely not be, however you never know.  It is track number seven on MDNA, which means something to me because in God's eyes the number 7 is perfect.  In fact, I am so impressed with God's work as I was born in the year 1977; which is like saying I was born in '77, if you get my drift.  So having said that Superstar has great lyrics and Melody, I highly recommend it and so therefore I recommend every song on MDNA, as Superstar is a great reflection of what is included on MDNA.

Madonna: Turn up the radio

 
Turn up the radio was released as the third single to MDNA.  MDNA was just released on March 26th, 2012 and it is Madonna's twelfth Studio album.  Madonna is currently on tour in North America to support her new album and that tour is entitled the MDNA tour.  The Music video for Turn up the radio is amazing and I highly recommend it along with the song itself as well.

Madonna: I’m addicted

 
I just finished listening to I'm addicted and it was great.  Madonna is now on Tour in North America to support her latest Studio album entitled MDNA.  I highly recommend that album and especially this song, I'm addicted.  It has not been released as a single, but it precedes the latest single that has been released Turn up the radio.  That song is great in and of itself, however I'm addicted is a great way to lead into the euphoria that that song creates.

Madonna: Gang Bang

 
I can’t seem to ever want to listen to Gang Bang.  It appears as the second track on Madonna’s latest Studio album, entitled MDNA however it is somewhat derogatory so I am not as inspired to listen to it as, let’s say Girl gone wild; with its preface of a very Holy introduction.  Of course the rest of Girl gone wild is not nearly as exciting as the introduction to the song.  But it definitely gets me through it.  Having said that, it would be misleading to not tell you what the Introduction to the song is about.  Madonna talks about Sinning against God and being heartily sorry for having done so; and then she goes on to ask for His forgiveness.

Madonna: Girl gone wild

 
I am just listening to Girl gone wild and it's great.  Apparently Madonna is in North America although I have heard little about it.  Oh well at least she is close to home.  MDNA was released earlier this year in March and I have literally not stopped listening to it since.  So far it is the best Madonna album I have ever heard.  That says a lot considering how many Madonna albums I have heard and own.

T.I. and Jay-Z featuring Kanye West and Lil’ Wayne: Swagga Like Us

 
I just finished listening to Swagga Like Us and it was amazing.  I love the parts featuring the guest artists, but I also enjoy T.I.'s part as well.  It is a little weak but I can dig it and Kanye West definitely makes up for his weakness at the beginning of the song.  M.I.A. knocks it out of the park as usual but it is only a sample so nothing special.  However Lil Wayne has a great part and so does Jay-Z but I am a little biased to Lil Weezy because his flows are more original.

T.I.: What Up, What’s Haapnin’

 
What Up, What's Haapnin' is a great song.  I feel a particular affinity towards it because it talks about being rich and although I am not filthy rich, I am pretty well-off considering I don't have to dig graves for a living.  Having said that, I would still like to be more well-off; but I am having fun chasing those carrot sticks.

T.I. featuring Swizz Beatz: Swing Ya Rag

 
Swing Ya Rag featuring Swizz Beatz is an amazing track.  It appears on T.I.'s sixth Studio album entitled Paper Trail and it is a very well-written song, especially Swizz Beatz's part.  I am not sure if he is Swiss or not but if he is, I like him all the more.  Switzerland is not part of the European Union as of right now, as a Member State.  However it has very close ties with the EU, bordering two of its key member states and Switzerland's currency, the Swiss franc, is often compared to the European Union's currency, the Euro and is in fact pegged to it.

T.I.: No Matter What

 
No Matter What was not released as an official single to Paper Trail however it was released as a promotional single and there is a Music video to accompany this song.  This song is actually one of my favorite songs on the album, if not my favorite, since it makes a very prominent and poignant reference to God in it that I actually and utterly adore.  No Matter What is the seventh track on the album which means it follows Live Your Life featuring Rihanna as track five and Whatever You Like as track six.  Both of those songs were released as singles and so therefore track seven is a great slot to be in considering the success of those two singles.

T.I.: Whatever You Like


Whatever You Like is the first song and single that attracted me to Paper Trail.  It was also, ironically enough, the first single released from Paper Trail even though there were some promotional singles released such as No Matter What which actually has its own Music video.

T.I. featuring Rihanna: Live Your Life


I just finished listening to Live Your Life and I must say that it is the best song released from Paper Trail and could be quite possibly the best song from T.I.'s career.  It's quite amazing actually and even if you are not a T.I. fan then I still highly recommend it as the new generation's Janet Jackson is featured on it and that would be none other than Rihanna.

T.I.: I’m Illy


I just finished listening to I'm Illy.  I can't stress enough how great and well-written that song is.  It appears as the first track on Paper Trail and should not be overlooked.  I know we all like to skip to the singles that have been released off of albums.  But this is one track that is so original that it is worthy of release but for the fact that it's extremely Explicit.

Benny Benassi featuring Gary Go: Cinema (Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix)

 
The Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix of Cinema featuring Gary Go is sick.  Of course I mean that in the most positive light, but seriously it is one of the best remixes I have ever heard and the beats are really heavy in it too.  When I say that, I am referring to the fact that the bass is really intense and if I were at a Club or what have you, listening to it, then I would be all the more impressed.  The Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix of Cinema is out of this world.

deadmau5: Fifths (Max Zotti Remix)

 
The Max Zotti Remix of Fifths is one of the most amazing Electronic tracks I have ever heard.  It reminds me of being at some Rave on MDMA, and the only reason I reference that is because Madonna's new album is entitled MDNA, which is obviously a play off of that as she even references MDMA in one of her songs.  I downloaded the Max Zotti Remix of Fifths after I downloaded the Original Mix of Aural Psynapse.  That was back in 2011 but you would be surprised how classic and amazing a track like that can sound a year later given its trendy Electronic beat.

Daft Punk: Derezzed

 
The song mixed by Daft Punk that is most prominently found on the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack from Tron: Legacy is Derezzed.  Of course they mix all of the songs on that Soundtrack album.  But Derezzed is the best and the most prominently featured as I said.  I only downloaded that one song, although I would have downloaded the entire album had I more money.  But Derezzed definitely fulfilled my desire for current Daft Punk material.

Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina: Stereo Love (Radio Edit)

 
 
The Radio Edit of Stereo Love is amazing.  I am a huge fan of Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina.  They are both from Romania as far as I know, and that is yet another country or member state that belongs to the European Union.  It is a fairly recent member though so I am not quite sure if they have adopted the Euro yet, as a form of currency.  I taped the Music video for this song, albeit the Canadian version which featured a Canadian singer instead of Vika Jigulina but it is still good none the less; even though I prefer the Music video with Vika Jigulina in it because she is Romanian.

deadmau5: Aural Psynapse (Original Mix)

 
 
The Original Mix of Aural Psynapse by deadmau5 is amazing.  deadmau5 is from Canada and I first heard of him through the likes of Paris Hilton of all people.  I miss Paris Hilton but I used to subscribe to her Tweets on Twitter and that is where I first heard of deadmau5.  Ever since then I have downloaded two of his tracks.  deadmau5 is one of the best DJs I have ever heard.

Benny Benassi featuring Gary Go: Cinema (DJ Mazza Dub Mix)

 
 
The DJ Mazza Dub Mix of Cinema featuring Gary Go is amazing.  Of course this song is originally mixed by Benny Benassi, a DJ I am very fond of given his work Madonna.  Benny Benassi even worked with her on her most recent album entitled MDNA.  That album is a great album and so is the single, Cinema.  I actually own three versions of that song, the original or album version, the version or mix I am Blogging about currently and the Alex Gaudino & Jason Rooney Remix, which is actually a pretty good remix in and of itself.  But I prefer the Dub Mix because I am more of a fan of Dubs when it comes to Electronic Music.

Swedish House Mafia: Save the World (Zedd Remix)


The Zedd Remix of Save the World is an amazing remix.  This track is originally mixed by Swedish House Mafia, a group of DJs from Europe that I am a huge fan of.  They are obviously from Sweden which is a very prominent country in the European Union.  I am actually looking forward to moving there with great anticipation.  It is – the – new Super Power of the 21st Century and my life would be incomplete if I never lived in it.

Drake & Lil Wayne: Miss Me

 
Miss Me was released as the third single from Thank Me Later, Drake's debut Studio album released in 2010.  Find Your Love was released as the second single preceding Miss Me but I much prefer Miss Me as it is more of a Hip hop song as opposed to a mid-tempo ballad.

Drake: Over

 
Over was released as the lead single from Drake's debut Studio album entitled Thank Me Later.  That album produced three prominent singles, in my mind, that I chose to download including but not limited to Over and Miss Me.  I prefer the Explicit version of Over as opposed to the Clean version but the clean version is good, while I am watching the Music video as I have only ever found the clean version of the Music video.

Drake: Headlines

 
Headlines is an amazing track and single released by Drake from his second Studio album entitled Take Care.  It's actually my favorite Drake song of all-time, not that he has a huge catalogue however; Drake is an amazing artist and I highly recommend this song and even the album on which it is from, even though it is weaker, in my opinion than his preceding album.  I say that only because the singles released from his preceding album are stronger than the lack of original singles released from Take Care minus Headlines.

Wiz Khalifa: Black and Yellow

 
Black and Yellow was released as the lead single to Wiz Khalifa's debut Studio album entitled Rolling Papers.  It is the most successful single released by Wiz Khalifa in my mind however he may have released a more successful one; I just don't have time to check.  There are really excellent Music videos available on Atlantic records' YouTube channel that I highly recommend of Wiz Khalifa's.  There is one in paticular that features Snoop Dogg, among others.

Kanye West featuring Rihanna: All of the Lights

 
All of the Lights is a great song, performed by Kanye West featuring Rihanna among others.  It's really too long of a list, to list all of the artists featured on this song.  However the ones that stand out are Fergie, Kid Cudi, Elton John and Alicia Keys.  Although Alicia Keys is a little weak on this song.  However this song is from the coveted Studio album produced by Kanye West entitled My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

Jay-Z featuring Rihanna & Kanye West: Run This Town

 
Run This Town is a great song.  It is performed by American rapper Jay-Z who I am not a huge fan of, however I appreciate some of his work.  Even though most of the work I own of his, is usually him as a featured artist.  Rihanna is featured on this song along with Kanye West.  I can safely say that I am a huge fan of both of those Artists in comparison to Jay-Z.  Rihanna is one of the stars of my Blog and even though Kanye West is not featured on it as much as I would like, he is featured on it; most of the time as a featured artist, much like Jay-Z is.  But Kanye West is much more frequently featured.

Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys: Empire State of Mind

 
I am listening to Empire State of Mind again because it is so good.  I don't even have a Playlist ready however my brain is working and I have already decided that it will be a Hip hop Playlist instead of my usual Alicia Keys Playlist, where I usually include Empire State of Mind.  The next song on this Playlist will be RunThis Town, featuring Rihanna and of course I will include the only Kanye West song I own, but heavens it is so good, I need more.

3OH!3 featuring Katy Perry: Starstrukk



I just finished listening to Starstrukk featuring Katy Perry performed by 3OH!3 and it was pretty good.  I have heard this song before so it was nothing new but it was a little refreshing considering that I have been listening to the original version a lot and it's always fun to listen to Katy Perry sing; so having said that I am somewhat tired of the version featuring Katy Perry since I have owned it on MP3 for years.  That version is included on the Deluxe edition of Want, 3OH!3's second Studio album and so therefore it is a Bonus Track.

3OH!3: Starstrukk



I just finished listening to Starstrukk by 3OH!3 and it was amazing.  This time it was the version not including Katy Perry and that is good as I have heard that version about a million times and the original is more Electronic.  The original version of Starstrukk is available on 3OH!3's second Studio album entitled Want.  I highly recommend that album and this song but only the album because the song is so amazing.

Katy Perry: The One that Got Away

 
The One that got away was released as the sixth and final single from Teenage Dream.  Katy Perry then released The Complete Confection which is actually the re-release or re-issue of Teenage Dream.  I was so impressed with the album, Teenage Dream and the single Part of Me, that I went ahead and purchased The Complete Confection on Compact Disc and even though there is an Acoustic version of The One that got away on that re-release; I still do not love that song.  It's ok but not my favorite.

Katy Perry: Tommie Sunshine’s Megasix Smash-Up



I am just listening to Tommie Sunshine's Megasix Smash-Up available on the re-release of Teenage Dream.  Teenage Dream is Katy Perry's third Studio album even though ultimately it is only her second commercially successful.  The re-release is entitled Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection and I own that album on Compact Disc.  That was a great decision on my part as the re-release is an amazing album.  Tommie Sunshine's Megasix Smash-Up is a Mash Up of the six singles released from the original release of Teenage Dream.
