Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #12


At #12 Pogo's Hermione Mix is one for the Harry Potter fans out there. I always liked Hermione the best out of the main three, I do remember grade one me having a crush on her, so that is probably why I personally prefer it to his other HP remix Alohomora.

The song is quite calming having a good synchronization between the rhythm, the bass,
and the background reverbed chords. Some in
the comments say that this song has a fascinating dream-like feel to it, due to the nostalgic memories it brings back. I stopped watching Harry Potter after the first one and didn't pick it up again until 2014 so I can't say I'm too particularly nostalgic for it.

Australian musician Pogo did the impossible: He made minions NOT annoying.

At #13 "Gruve" does a good job encapsulating the heartwarming story of the first Despicable Me movie, which many people forget due to the minions. The song is very chill, with a slower pace through most of the song only really ramping up in the chorus, and it checks off the wholesome tickbox.

"Now you brush the fur'" is a particular favourite line of mine because her voice is quite soothingly harmonic. In choosing the voice samples you can distort the voice lines and pitch shift it to anything you want, which sounds very very robotic and ruins the life in the sample. Pogo, however, keeps that beautiful balance between pitch shifting and natural harmonic vocals within the samples. It takes true skill to pick and choose these samples and craft it into a pleasing melody!

Well, what an eventful few days! My anxiety has certainly kept me on my toes during the last 48 hours. Despite the outside world looking a little bleak, I wanted to continue bringing my favourite remixes to you in order to maintain what little normality you have left in your life currently because I know mine has certainly changed drastically.

"Bite-Size Candies" is a remix by Pogo celebrating the 75th Anniversary of M&M’s. The song has a great sound to it; I find that samples that were taken from old 50s footage just sounds so good. In conclusion, this song is actually just like an M&M it's sweet, colourful and it makes me happy.

Stay safe out there everybody!

Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #15

#15 is a commercial, for the second consecutive week. "Magically Delicious" by MelodySheep
is surprisingly pretty good for being a bunch
of auto-tuned clips of Lucky the Leprechaun.
I enjoy how they used commercials from
different eras, I am certainly a sucker for
oldie advertisements. The song is pretty 
whimsical which certainly matches Lucky 
Charm's mantra but in saying that it does boil
down to kids stalking an Irish fellow who they believe is a leprechaun....
