Oh, hell no!

Since my mp3 player decided to delete all my newly uploaded music, I was persuaded into browsing my older stuff. Foals popped up so I put on “Cassius” right away. After that, “Red Socks Pugie” came on and I really got into this song. It starts off softly with short drumbeats and eerie background noises. Then, it transcends into energetic “hello no’s” and “what the hell’s”, which work so well with the rest of the music. It’s great to freak out to when you’ve had too much coffee.

The ending is also something to take note of. It’s almost like a mash-up of remixed jewelry box sounds and bass notes, fading out.

Foals – Red Socks Pugie

Electric Bloom

I’ve stumbled upon another excellent remix of the Foals‘ song, “Electric Bloom” (youtube link to the original here). This one is produced by a solo DJ that goes by the name, Bufi, from Mexico City. He entered this remix into the summer contest that the Foals put on last year. Even though he didn’t win, this remix is still very well-done and I would rather listen to Bufi’s remix over the orchestral one (don’t get me wrong, I thought the orchestral remix was very cool but I need more of a beat these days). You can download Bufi’s remix for free off Last.fm.
