3K!

w00t! w00t! 3000+ Fans on Ohh! Crapp... Facebook Page and still going. I love each and every one of you beautiful people, your support fuels Ohh! Crapp... and keeps it alive and prospering.


Keep checking this space back over the course of the next 3 days, where I will be updating this post with a new remix every few hours!!!

Phoenix - Lisztomania (Yuksek Remix)
_____________________________________________________________________

Sometimes I wonder if BURNS is a remixing robot invented by Linus Loves in his secret 12:12 labs!? The dude just made acquaintance with the public less than a year ago & already remixed Buy Now, Wiley, Late Of The Pier, Bucketheads, Empire Of The Sun, Linus Loves, Filthy Dukes, Yuksek and I even heard he's busy remixing Gossip's Heavy Cross (I hope it's true)! Sinister dominates his vibe and occasionally his reworks sound like the ego of the Decepticons, mettalic, sharp and shiny like his Prom Night remix, but whether it's deephouse, electro, bassline or pop methods he sports, BURNS makes he owns it.

Here's his Tribalesque Electro-House remix of Blogs' current hype band Passion Pit.

Passion Pit - The Reeling (Burns Remix)
____________________________________________________________________

Looks like Housse De Racket has embraced a slight change of sound for their upcoming single!? Guess who is remixing it (check the teaser)!

____________________________________________________________________

Punks Jump Up been remixing blog-Pop folks for so long that I accepted them as remixers rather than the band, but that's only me because they've been on the road throwing a successful gig after another for years, making punks jump up at the scene.. something I yet yearnt o experience. They almost played a gig here in Bahrain few months ago, which would've been the first indie band in history toplay on this island but unfortunately it got canceled last minute *rants*.

This is a band that like sot match it's paint war energy with it's visual aesthetics, keeping kids decorated in Kate Morross designed apparel and adding records to our collection with sleeves rad enough to be framed and hanged on the wall.

I wouldn't mind really if the english/swedish duo decided to infinitely remix & gig while occasionally (rarely) throw an original through a compilation (Kitsune Maison) or release a limited physical single through a third party label as long as they're active. Good news is they are finally working on their debut album & guess who's on the guest list? Le Tigre's JD Samson side project MEN! YESSS!

This is their latest remix of Bloodshy & Avant + Andrew Wyatt collaboration-band-project Miike Snow.

Miike Snow - Animal (Punks Jump Up Remix)

Make sure you grab their new t-shirts before they're sold out, i proudly own both designs, they come with stickers & 3d Glasses too!

I'm still convinced about the importance of a live The Presets CD/DVD existence in the universe, ever since the first goosebump that Coachella performance of Are You The One? induced - I think it's time to start a petition or write fake suicide threat emails to Modular.

Who wouldn't want to see one of their favorite bands performing sinister versions of their songs? Better check their tour schedule, their live show is something not to be missed.

Here's an alternate more suitable for the clubs version of If I know You by The Presets themselves, something for the iPod.

The Presets - If I Know You (Alternate Version)

If you know anyone selling good quality bootleg DVD of the Coachella Performances, plz hit me up with an email.

Yeah don't worry about the negative comments here Faisal. It's probably the other blog guys, envious of the popularity of yours.

I check your blog every day, and night and you've given so much good music, you deserve all the praise you recieve. From me at least: thank you.

Anonymous said...

ohhcrapp is ok, but what turns people off is ohhcrapp often seems to be more about faisal's ego than the music being featured. concentrate on the music and less on faisal and less on gaming hype machine. eventually the haters will be won over.

and stop harassing artists 24/7... they have lives and it's not to serve faisal 320z.

Philodino said...

Last I checked, it is Faisal's blog. If you don't like it, there is a simple solution: Stop reading it.
I care about the number of fans here, because without us, Faisal couldn't share all this fucking great music.

So please flamers...leave. Faisal wouldn't be successful in blogging if he wasn't himself. If he has a big ego in his posts, so what? I would like to see you kids amass 3k fans.

Congrats, pal. It has been great downloading music from you. Send me a tweet sometime. :)

A friend,

yeh man, you haterz are all sluts. faisal is king of the internet

Anonymous said...

not speaking for all the the other bloggers, but i kinda feel like we like taking the piss as it's just such a crap blog - and it's done for all the wrong reasons. this blog doesnt post great music, it posts a lot of average music with one tune every so often. it is neither helpful to to the artist nor the labels - how many of you actually buy the tracks of other tracks by the artists? how many of you go to the live show? how many of you share this music? How many of you carry any influence outside of egoboys lair? the world is full of blogs, and you little fan boys need to get some music taste.

philodino said...

I do.
I bought CIAO! Tiga.
I bought I Feel Cream by Peaches. It's all on my iPod. And that is just recent.

I am also going to buy Kitsune Maison 7.

If it wasn't for this blog, I wouldn't know WTH these things were. This was the first music blog I stumbled on to and it had me at a good start.

If you think it's a crap blog, it's your opinion.
I am sure lots of other blogs don't mind competition.
Hell, competition is GOOD because it makes people creative.

And obviously fans of OhhCrapp! spread the music and love because he has 3k followers.

So other bloggers: Give me a link and I will go to your sites often if I like what I see. And guess what? I will still go to this one, AND the other blogs I've found I like. Turns out, you can look at more than one a day!

peaches and tiga love you x

Seriously, you didn't know about Tiga, Peaches or Kitsune before reading this blog? What rock have you been living under the past ten years?

Anonymous said...

i have to admit that alot of the music isnt exactly intriguing and some of the hype related principals behind this blog are not too great, but this is his blog and he should be able to post without being abused. every blog out there will have people that dont like it but nothing is gained by mouthing off

MUCH BETTER THAN ANYTHING OHH CRAPP HAS POSTED IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS.

On a nicer note, the Burns and Yuksek mixes are incredible!!

Thanks Faisal!

i'm the second friend on the printscreen of the 3000 facebook page XD that surprised me a little, i sound abit sad now but ah well. nice burns and yuksek rmxs aswell, cheers

brovash said...

why are you so obsessed with people previewing your music so you get more plays, and so you get more hits? e-fame?

Hieu Le said...

you guys deserve it! I love your blog!

Anonymous said...

@brovash - yes he uses hypemachine so his post go up in popularity and he gets more hits. It's abusing the system and a diservice to the other blogs and artists but hypem obviously doesn't care because they get to sell more ads.

Seems to be a problem with the presets link?

and 4000 by the end of the year? no DOUBT!

Rebecca said...

Great mixes!!!!

Eazy-E said...

This is one good blog. If some do not like it, why waste the time reading it?

Peter said...

Please fix the Presets link!! <3 it

Anonymous said...

This is a good blog, but this post is a fucking mess. How much stuff is in it?

We get it, "3k" fans. Well done.

Now get back to doing what you do best bro.

The Lemur said...

I just wonder what's up with this one-single-updated-post-concept? What's the deal? What does anyone gain from that? All I see is that it strays away from the whole basic blog concept and structure.

On a second note I would just like to point out that hypem previewing links is something the downloaders, artists and remixers and bloggers can benefit from. But frankly I don't see why any reader/downloader would bother previewing through low-quality, slow-rendering Hypem streams. I just download the heap and listen through it, and most of the stuff on Ohh Crapp is GOOD! End of story.

constructive criticism:

cut the clutter, organise posts
less of the 30000++ woop woop posts

but most importantly please, focus on the quality of music as it seems to be poor in the last half year

this blog format is pretty terrible. also, somehow people are allowing narcissism to creep into everything these days and act like its cool. its not. i hate my twitter generation, where is modesty? especially for people just delivering other peoples art!?

Clearly half the people saying anything bad here are from blogs, they seem to know a little too much about why the blog works and that makes it quite obvious...

im an artist faisal 'harrases' and i'd hardly call it harrasing.. hes very friendly and id definitely send him something first, he is always looking out for our interests. I wouldn't be surprised if its the same reason labels give him exclusives..

SO why try bring him down when he is absolutaly owning every blog. At least he doesn't delete posts like every other blog.

When your only haters are from other blogs, i guess its a good sign your blog is doing well. no fans are going out of their way to say anything bad here, its purely and obviously just the competition..

Excuse the spelling above. Harass* Absolutely*
