Nice to see a few of you cats are doing this one (mat payne you sexy beast you) what songs you guys doing?

What is this?

i made a edit of the breakfast club classic "dont you forget about me" by simple minds. i havent changed much at all, but i just wanted to hear it in there as an 80s mix wouldn't be complete without it!

Buffet Libre DJ's are doing this 80s cover project thing - basically you pick a song from the 80's and cover it (surprisingly). I think they're going to release it as a mixtape or something along those lines.

They gave a list of tracks in the Myspace they sent out.

I was tempted to do one, but I really wouldn't know where to start.

Sujo, where can you find a list of artists/tracks?

radiocontrol · 2008-04-17, 12:27:35

list of artists involved...

The Twelves, Sidechains, The Toxic Avenger, Anoraak, Grum, Database, Moulinex, Pink Skull, RAC, Xinobi, Damage, Russ Chimes, CFCF, The Shoes, Cryptonites, Culture Prophet, Daroc, Royal Rumble, The Amplid, Adventure Kid, Loud Pipes, Mat Payne, James Husband, Computer Love, Keenhouse, Emotiquon, Mojib, Night Facilities, Clash The Disco Kids, Oh Snap!, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, South Central, Lillica Libertine, Vitaminsforyou , Tknik, PonkRocks, Fisk vs Blende, Beesmunt Soundsystem, We Are Terrorists, Purple Crush, Hello Tokyo

the very best of upcoming electronic music is in here! (some of them already famous...in belgium! hehe)

no tracklist yet...we are still waiting for confirmation, we asked for 3 different songs...they'll decide which one is the one to cover...hehe

buffetlibre may not be the best djs on earth (they arent, I can tell...hehe) but they have great ideas such as proyecto batidora (the remix project, http://www.proyectobatidora.net ) and this REWIND (80s covers) project now...

Looks like it should be good!

Sujo · 2008-04-17, 12:31:14

talking heads -this must be the place (naive melody)

Should be ace!

radiocontrol · 2008-04-17, 12:43:44

i m really looking forward to have all the tracks and listen everyones versions...hehe

mk6518 · 2008-04-17, 12:59:00

So are you guys actually remaking the song (in your own instruments/style as it were), or just doing a sort of reedit/remix from bits from the original?

Sujo · 2008-04-17, 13:28:53

Were going to be doing a proper cover. Don't know about the other guys.

radiocontrol · 2008-04-17, 20:41:49

not using the original parts (as we dont have them) but its not a proper cover as we want to turn it more into our style...so it will be some kind of reinterpretation! hehe

loudpipes · 2008-04-17, 22:38:11

ive just done a quick edit of that simple mids track, it hardly differs from the original like i said.

some people will be doing remixes, some like me will do edits and some will do covers

HEADPHASER · 2008-04-18, 00:38:39

Whoa! James Husband! As in THE James Husband?? Cool project...i'm excited to hear some results. I'm hoping for some Tears For Fears action.

TempestDisco · 2008-04-18, 12:01:50

Tears For Beers · 2008-04-18, 12:16:44

massive · 2008-04-18, 13:50:08
