RIUSAB Top [Some Number] (Re-edit)

Seems about time for a rundown on some hot 'n' juicy RIUSAB trax of 07:



M.I.A. - Paper Planes (Remix ft Bun B and Rich Boy) - zshare



Holy RIUSAB. If you have somehow managed to avoid hearing this one...fuck you, first off. Second off, go listen and get off. Thrice. RIUSAB guaranteed. Remix of the year, mostly because it does so little, and that's totally the new doing a lot again.



Yelle - A Cause Des Garcons (Punks Jump Up Remix) - zshare



Aite, Discobelle scooped the shit out of us on this one (and maybe some other shit too - it's just our job 5 days a week) , but check it. Worth your while on many levels (their newish remix of Remi Nicole too). We at RIUSAB plan on spinning this ish anywhere and everywhere - get ya Francophone on, Amuricka.



Punkin' Machine - I Need You Tonight



Fuck James Murphy. No really. With that said, this shit was a great find - best thing on his contribution to the Fabriclive series - fuck what yr cuz and his blogger momz' friendz say about "Still Going Theme." It might not be 07 per se, but we've been dropping it like it's hot just to check...turns out it is. Almost makes us want to crate dig again. Almost.





In other news, that same punk over at Following The Century takes another shot at RIUSAB. Would have thought we schooled his/her ass badly enough the other day, but no. We'd love to waste more breath on the subject, but we're choosing to spend it all on:

So close to current (but already washed-up) hype band Black Kids. We almost gave them the coveted RIUSAB High School Cover Band of the Week title in September...but then we discovered that their songs just "sound like" the work of other bands. They were still technically eligible for the equally coveted RIUSAB Derivative High School Band of the Week with Future Potential title, but we haven't done that one in a while - still waiting for some teens who can rip off "Dirty Work." Also, turns out they're not in high school. Kind of the last straw.
