There is nothing we love more than to walk along Spanish Banks, ear phones snuggly tight in our aural canal, powering down the beach listening to beat music remixes to energize our appreciation of the great outdoors.
Dating back to the late 1960s, we have written a regular music column, first for the city wide Vancouver student newspaper, then as arts & review editor of Simon Fraser University’s student newspaper, The Peak, and after that in mainstream media, and since the turn of the century online, both on VanRamblings and a raft of other online non-affiliated online publications.
Today, four of our favourite remixes, which we listen and dance to again and again on our slidey living room floor (and elsewhere) …

Cloud Number 9 | Bryan Adams | Chicane Remix | (long my ringtone)

Need U (100%) | Duke Dumont | Skreamix | (80s funk done up right)

That Thing | Golden Boy | Eton Messy Remix | (thank you Lauryn Hill)
