WONGIE INDIE DANCE SONG OF THE WEEK: nero - the thrill

nero - the thrill
nero are back! after a bit of a quiet period, the UK breakbeat/big beat trio return with this cool jam that begs to be turnt up! love these mid-range dance songs these days!

DANCE CATCH UP SUNDAY: monsta - holdin on (skrillex and nero remix)

monsta - holdin on (skrillex and nero remix)
i've been holding up a treasure trove of dance tracks on my ipod and figure today is probably the best day to just pass on what i've been jamming to in my head for the past few months. this remix by skrillex and nero is so insane because it literally feels like someone playing laser tag in your brain. yes, i just compared dubstep to laser tag...

wanna hear the original? here it is below:
monsta - holdin on

INDIE DANCE BITCH DANCE: nero - reaching out / hall & oats -

nero - reaching out
[sampling the hall and oats track 'out of touch' (see below), nero revisits yet another pop classic for the new age. i wish they had other tricks up their sleeve since i really loved their #1 smash 'promises', but for now it's all about 80's soul retread. shame...]


hall and oats - out of touch
[still an amazing song after all these years!]

INDIE DANCE BITCH DANCE: nero - crush on you / the jets - crush on you

nero - crush on you
[it's like watching old school hammer horror films! the song is silly and nowhere near the genius of their previous smash promises (even the usage of the classic jets song doesn't quite work). oh well... a one listen viewing experience]

as an added gem, the original (and better version) by the jets!

the jets - crush on you

WONGIE SONG OF THE WEEK: nero feat alana - promises

nero feat alana - promises
[kicking! just kicking!! i have nothing more to add to this.]

INDIE DANCE BITCH DANCE: nero - guilt

nero - guilt
[it's kind of amazing what a stripper pole, a talented dancer, some bright lights and some digital effects can do for your attention span! a cool-ass video for a cool-ass dubstep track!]

INDIE DANCE BITCH DANCE: nero - me and you

nero - me and you
[what a wacky dubstep track to make it to the A-list on bbc's radio 1 playlist. i'm not sure i'm crazy about this track as much as some of nero's other jams, but if this is the one that's going to bring dubstep to the charts, then sure, why not.]
