Monday Throwback #2: LL Cool J - 4,3,2,1 ft. Method Man, Redman, DMX
A special edition: Monday Throwback #2!
Theme Song of the Week: Grateful Dead - Fire on the Mountain - Live at the Capitol Theater, Passaic, NJ April 27, 1977
I went to check out a Grateful Dead cover band Friday night. They are called Playing Dead and they were actually really good (I'm tempted to use the word "skeptical" when talking about a cover band, but I don't think it's the correct word. Maybe I just prefer the originals, but since the Dead no longer exist as a complete band this was cool to see). While I enjoy listening to the Dead from time to time, I am not by any means a Dead Head nor a huge expert on them or their music. Playing Dead was extremely talented and I loved the 2-drummer dynamic (being a drummer myself). It was also great to step back and watch all the middle-aged Dead Heads dancing their pants off. This was definitely a night off the beaten path but it was fun nonetheless.
People who commented on this video consider the Dead to be at the peak/prime of their extensive days together as a band when the video was taken (young, hungry and just jamming).

Cafe Del Mar - Energy 52 (Out Of Office Remix)
Probably should put this on your playlists for the weekend as well...
The Chemical Brothers - Swoon (Boys Noize Summer Mix)
Taking you into the weekend with a Boys Noize remix of the Chemical Brothers song Swoon. There are several remixes of this song out there and the original isn't bad either, but this version took the cake for me. Bass it up as always.

SKRILLEX - Rock N' Roll (Will Take You To The Mountain)
Skrillex is quickly becoming an addiction of mine. At first listen I wasn't so into it, but the way he combines house with dubstep and everything in between is crazy. Not to mention his signature high-pitched voices all throughout.
