Hip-Hop, Rap | I.O.U. – Take A Walk (Prod. Felix Wei)
Posted by VMan on July 30, 2013
The hip-hop duo from Rutgers University, I.O.U., had sent over their track “Worth It” a couples weeks back, and I never got a chance to post it. Well just in luck, the guys just sent over the video for their new record “Take A Walk” where they sample Passion Pit’s “Take A Walk,” and this might be one of my favorite records from these cats. They delivered on this Felix Wei production with top notch verses from Buck and Izee, and a hook that doesn’t play around. I’m also a fan of this video. The boys were recently out in LA and they took the opportunity to shoot these awesome visuals with director Babylon Jean. Bravo fellas! Keep up the great work! This is a must listen and a must download!

Indie, Progressive House | Passion Pit – Take A Walk (The M Machine Remix)
Posted by Middy on June 22, 2012
The M Machine takes this great Passion Pit song (if you didn’t already get the original, head over to iTunes now and get it) and adds a progressive house flare to it. After seeing them put on a clinic at Starscape, I knew that this one was going to be great. They keep much of the original work by Passion Pit, using the horns and intricate melodies crafted by Passion Pit in the build leading into a massive progressive house drop. They utilize the vocals perfectly, add uplifting synth chords and a driving bass, making this a must have for all house or indie fans out there. The best part? It is free! Also below is another remix of “Take A Walk” from Peking Duk that slows it down a little, using the main melody of the original track as the central theme, while adding a grungy synth to the drop.
