CSK OK

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Wow, weird title. Like a science fair or something. Nevermind, CSK OK is…umm…I don’t know how to put this but yeah, the guy is from Sydney, Australia. Very surprising, huh? His name is Cassian, he’s talented and only 19. He sent us his rework of The Galvatrons’ When We Were Kids. We’ve posted the Bag Raiders remix of this one and here’s another great Aussie combo again between Melbourne and Sydney.

I think I’m not going to hear the original song. First, I didn’t bother to check The Galvatrons out because they look ugly. Of course, who cares, but it just didn’t appeal to me. However, if remixes like this keep coming I’m really not gonna listen to the original. Might ruin it. Pay attention to CSK OK, really awesome dense space-ish sound and he plays the guitar which is great cause guitars play an important part in good pop music, you know, a Pioneer 1000 MK3 is not everything. And he plays keyboard for Snob Scrilla electro hiphop act. Seems like there are breeding grounds in Austrilia which are like fertilized with cool music. I really wish flight tickets would be cheaper from there.

the galvatrons and bag raiders show Melbourne and Sydney can get along afterall

The Aussie revolution marches on with The Galvatrons, straight outta Melbourne, yo. The self described “four maverick, interstellar transformers from a future vortex … of disco fist-pumping, 80s prom night bashes and Hollywood endings for bespectacled misfits” are on the rampage down under, getting hype from all the prerequisite hype sources. Although i wonder, would the Galvatrons and the Killers agree that When We Were Kids takes place at the same time as When You Were Young? I’m not sure, other than to say there’s a lot of youth remembering these days.

Remixed by the Bag Raiders from rival Sydney-town — gives the original some extra dance punch and reinforces the notion that their music producers are now happy to go AUSSEE ON AUSSEE to trump France and facilitate World Music Takeover for the ‘roos (and yes i’m looking at you Midnight Juggernauts remixing Cut Copy… not fair).
