New music feature. On top of having loads of mash-ups in my music library, I also have myriad remixes. Remixes, much like mash-ups, have somewhat of a tainted reputation of being unnecessary and/or useless – maybe even annoying too. I think they’re none of those, but then again, that is not the case for all remixes. Don’t fret, I won’t waste your time with any bad remixes but be warned, they are out there.

The first blessing I send you is a remix of the song “What You Need” by Priors. The original is a song to daydream to; a song that makes you think of loves past and present. It’s a little dancey, but nothing really to knock your socks off. Hey Champ, known for their killer track “Cold Dust Girl” are also known to put some good remixes together and their remix of “What You Need” is top notch. It adds a little something more to the original that makes it just wee-bit better. The use of Priors’ melodic harmonies throughout is amazing and you’ll be trying to sing along with the vocal cut-ups the whole way through. I’m really excited about summer and this track is perfect to build up the already accumulating momentum towards the solstice.
