31/10/2008: NEW "WHIMSICAL MIXTAPE" FROM MOJIB

If you have checked out the ULTIMATE RADIOHEAD REMIX COMPILATION (and if you haven't it is just one click away), you probably listened to the superb remix of "Videotape" by MOJIB. Well, his record company has been nice enough to send me the link to his new WHIMSICAL MIXTAPE.

Here is Part 1 of the MIXTAPE; you can also find it along with Part 2 at Mojib'site).

And here is what the press release says about it:

After last years critically acclaimed debut, "Whimsical Lifestyle", Mojib returns to complete the circle with a special take on the album.

It's a mixtape that knows no boundaries as it remixes, mashes and reconstructs tracks from the LP while adding artists that inspired the album. Maintaining the mixture of styles from his debut album, Mojib takes the original samples one step further and let new styles blend with old. It's two separate mix sessions loaded with a strong passion and dedication for music. The first part features a fast tempo and an upbeat style, similar to his past mixes ("Examination mix" and "Holiday adventure"). Underground and well-known commercial artists blend together with tracks such as "Whimsical lifestyle", "Jonsered" and "Break of dawn".

The second part lets the listener on a darker journey, following the footsteps of past projects such as "Requeim" with Martin Erlandsson. This piece incorporates the more downtempo tracks from the album such as "Untitled" and "Underneath". As a bonus it also features the upcoming release of Mojibs take on Radioheads "Paranoid android" (set to be released through Buffet Libres Rewind 2 project in January).
