EFYE April 27/12

This week Oggie James brings the heat with a summer feel. Sebastien Leger always sports a warm bouncy feel, Boy 8-Bit's Tropical Heat continues with the almost jungle feel, where we dive right into the much anticipated and hyped track from Major Lazer, Get Free. You can get Get Free for free from his website as well as Bonde Do Role's remix of it. Things are then changed up when Oggie goes for a deeper and perhaps more complex sound with Caribou's sultry remix of Radiohead's Little By Little; followed up closely with another Canadian talent, The French Nobility and So Cynical. This leads perfectly into the dead heavy bass sound with is signature to France's Gesaffelstein, with, his partner on the Bromance tour, Brodinski on the remix.


 Keeping things heavy and processed we move to Fake Blood's classic remix of his own band, The Black Ghosts. Perhaps his best remix, production wise, although stay tuned in the coming weeks to hear contenders for that title. Staying on the remix wagon, we find ourselves in the middle of A-Trak's magical and jacking remix of Boys Noize's Oh! Once you thought the endless list of remixes was over Oggie hits in the heart of the ears with amazing Canadian talent Peaches and her take on LadyHawke's Paris Is Burning


After the break, the dust of the remix explosion has settled and you are drawn to the serene yet haunting beauty of Robert Smith's vocals on Crystal Castles' Not In Love, perhaps how it was meant to sound with the vocals reminiscent of the time the original was written by Platinum Blonde right across Lake Ontario in Toronto almost 30 years before in 1983. Keeping with the Canadian content is Jacques Greene perfecting Katy B's vocals in his remix of Broken Record. Closing things out, winding things down and yet clearly still keeping a dance-able groove rhythm the set closes out with Erol Alkan's  very funky rework of Forever Dolphin Love and Tiga's remix of the fantastic lyrically telling James Murphy created I Can Change. Tune in next week same place, same time for more Enlightenment For Your Ears.

April 6/2012

Apologies to those who tuned in expecting to hear EFYE last Friday. Being a hectic week in finishing up the semester's classes, CFBU experienced a leak in the on air room adding to the week of craziness and thus the show could not go on. But be assured Oggie James will be back with a vengeance tomorrow evening (April 13th) at 6PM sharp!

This week Oggie has some special treats including a world exclusive, and first radio run from The French Nobility, and the a-side of his new EP The Royal Standard. More Rynecologist, Boys Noize, Gesaffelstein, Congorock, Boy 8-Bit and Carte Blanche.
