Brandon’s TBE Digest 29 – [10.11.2011] New Jams, Remixes, & Covers!
Artwork by Jacob Youngblood Ziegler
Brandon’s TBE Digest is a place where I gather up all the recent jams that are worth a listen (or 10) but don’t necessarily need their own post. Here you will find new tracks by known bands, remixes, covers, and even mashups if they are interesting. My favorites of the lot are in bold.
It’s a big one folks. Proceed with caution (and good speakers). Also note the new Digest logo that will be here to stay. Enough of that little weird cartoon guy we had for so long, amiright!? Cheers to new beginnings! And new jams!
For more jams by any of these artists use the ‘tags’ links at the bottom of the post!
NEW RELEVENT JAMS
♫ Toro y Moi – All Alone / Toro y Moi continue their Digest domination with this great jam off their new EP Freaking Out.

REMIXES
♫ The Rapture – How Deep Is Your Love? (A Trak Dub aka Dub For Mehdi) / The tragic loss of DJ Mehdi last month is unthinkably sad but A-Track had the benefit of bouncing this mix off of him before he passed and has dedicated it’s fantastic final version to him. Read A-Track’s story here.
♫ Motopony – Wait For Me  (Tim Livingstone edit) / The Best Song of The Year (So Far) gets a gentle massage to give it a slightly funkier edge that only brings more texture to its table.

I hope Massive attack got some credit on the Motopony track. Good tune still.
