“so…i’ve been making remixes under the guise of “death to the throne” now for quite some time. but what you might not know, is that me, death to the throne, is a very busy guy. a mover and shaker if you will. a captain of industry. how does he do it? you ask

well!….. in between my intense schedule of watching reruns of “roseanne” and duct taping fire works to a hellboy action figure, i managed to make this song and piss off my neighbors at the same time!”

This is the best Death to the Throne remix so far, love it. He’s also a funny dude, I always get excited when I get emails from him. Follow him on Twitter.

Death to the Throne:

“hello

usually i try to make my emails lighthearted and funny, but the events of the last couple weeks have made it hard to maintain my regularly cheerful demeanor. my apologies for the somber tone

i didn’t make it on to the dj mag’s top 100 dj list.

shocking i know. i didn’t even come in before tiesto. what the fuck. apparently, i don’t make enough “guido” house. if anything, i thought i made too much. but i was wrong

so i made this remix, which sounds like david guetta having sex with another david guetta, while being watched by a bunch of david guettas.

i also bought some axe body spray.

p.s. if you or someone you know is throwing a giant 60,000 person+ festival. i am available to headline. and of course your input on my shitty remix is greatly appreciated.”

This song collaborates true pioneers of electronic music with some unconventional electronic beats. It kind of gives me the vibe of playing Atari when I was younger. Definitely a pleasantly unsuspected twist on a classic Daft Punk jam. No need to apologize for the “gloria stefan-esque congas” either. They work. And I hope the homeless guy you hit with your mattress while moving likes this song as much as we do. Death to the Throne, keep up the good work!

Death to the Throne:

“i often feel like a self-involved jerk when i talk about my own music, and today is no exception so i’ll keep this short

included is a remix i made, originally made as an original track but kid cudi has not responded to my facebook harassment. how rude. my apologies if this comes off as lazy or insincere. also my apologies for the gloria estefan-esque congas in the middle. whether its in miami in 1988 or in a dark alley somewhere , the rhythm is gonna get you sooner or later.”

but enough about me. how are you doing? do you think the new season of entourage sucks as much as i do? when i was moving, my mattress flew off the roof of my car and hit a homeless person. is it okay to sleep on said mattress? holler at your boy”
