Korallreven ft. Julianna Barwick - "Sa Sa Samoa" (Elite Gymnastics Remix)

Don't expext to hear Julianna Barwick's ethereal 'Sa Sa Samoa' chorus on this Elite Gymnastics remix of the eponymous Korallreven track.  Instead vocal duties are taken over by Whitney Houston with a timely sample from her "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)" classic.  The remix borrows from old school rave and breakbeat (remember Acen?) and maintains some piano chords and balearic pads from the original.

Korallreven - "As Young As Yesterday" (Girl Unit remix)

Wut wut?!?!?! Girl Unit remixed Korallreven? Why didn't we think of that? Whereas we just posted a recent Korallreven remix of Britney Spears, now it's frenetic & flashy southern hip-hop influenced dubstep legend Girl Unit who took on the Swedes' first single from their November releasing debut album entitled "An Album".  Girl Unit's remix of "As Young as Yesterday" is a massive and characteristically bright affair with a cavernous reverb on the snare that will bop heads the world over. It will be featured on the 12" single release of the original, along with Panda Bear remix, which you can order here.  Listen to the Girl Unit remix of "As Young as Yesterday" below:

Pop Diva Bootleg Remix Face-Off: Lady Gaga vs Britney Spears

Don't worry we haven't gone soft here at Red Cup.  Though we aren't fans of the ladies' original work, we are known to be fans of upcoming producers unofficially reimagining the context of these mainstream female vocalists (check out previous Red Cup  posts featuring Ifan Dafydd's take on Amy Winehouse and Lapalux's twist on Gwen Stefani).  This time it's the Lady of Pop (not even sure if that's her official media title) and the Comeback Queen of Pop (we came up with that) that fall victim to indie bootlegging by the likes of Indigo Bunting and Korallreven respectively.

First off it's Wichita resident's Indigo Bunting's take on Gaga's "Monster", whose original melody is sucked out and reinterpreted through pitch manipulation only to be grafted with a hyperactive 'bass' beat. Listen to Lady Gaga's "Monster" (Indigo Bunting's Panoramic Juke Bootleg) below:

Next up is Swedish balearic duo Korallreven's huge remix of Britney's "'Till The World Ends".  The Swedes leave Britney's vocal intact and plant it in one of their huge atmospheric soundscapes before they introduce a massive drum beat right around the middle.  Listen to Britney Spears' "Till The World Ends (Korallreven Remix)" below:
