REMIX! That seems to be the logical impulse for bands and DJ’s alike, with DJ’s being inspired by indie artists and groups feeding their hunger to make people dance. Recent remixes of Bloc Party’s Silent Alarm and Beck’s Guero (as Guerelito) are among the higher-profile examples of full-album treatments, with single-track mash-ups and adaptations having a long-standing presence. more ›
