You Are Somewhere Around Here is a remix of a song by the Maybenauts, and it’s largely timestretched: the song is slowed down, which lends the guitars a very heavy sound, like distorted shoegazer guitars.

Axel F cover sorta is more of a remix of the theme to Beverly Hills Cop, by Harold Faltermeyer, full of staccato keyboard playing. It’s an upbeat and bouncy synthpop song.
This Woman’s Work (remix) is a synthy dance remix of Kate Bush. It’s CarrotAdventure’s second Kate Bush remix here.
Halcyon+off (fm campers remix) is a remix of the classic Orbital track “Halcyon + On + On” (also note: hey, Orbital’s on SoundCloud!). It’s kind of beautiful dreamy and spacy trance, and it knocks me out every time. And yes I’m probably biased because I love the original so much.
This is the first appearance of Orbital and of Espoo2 on the podcast.
No More “I Love You’s” (Beautiful Unicorn Remix) is a dance remix of the Annie Lennox song, with a nice bassline groove and fun rearranged lyrical samples.
Castles is an instrumental electronic remix of Bach’s Prelude in G, based on a performance by Pablo Casals.
Booty Don’t is a spacy dubby remix that really (unrecognizably) works over the original, Booty Dew by GS Boyz (not recommended).
Case Study #3 is a loopy trip-hop song based on samples from a 1960’s LSD PSA from Lockheed, which had lush instrumentation and trippy oil projection visuals and a really delightful story about LSD and hot dogs and a musical sting befitting a True Tale of Hot Dog Murder!
I fell into kind of a drug PSA hole researching this and the thread linked from the song.
Bertie (Blissout Mix) is a happy, blissed-out & loopy dance remix of a Kate Bush song.
tetris (intel+dubstepmix) is a remix of the Tetris theme, including a sample from Intel ads. It had me at “Tetris.”
Criminal (TTP Remix) is an industrial remix of the original song by The Roots. The original is jazzy hip-hop; this is a much more aggressive techno version, which matches the lyrics better.
last night a werewolf fell in love with me (silver lipstick remix) is a slightly livelier remix of a power pop song about supernatural romance.
Edit: Whoops. I published this, but I didn’t attach the song. Fixed!
Reckoner (Sparkletone Bmore Slow Dance Remix) is a simpler, slower, and prettier remix of a Radiohead song.
My Generation Remix is a loopy and groovy dance song, based on samples of the classic rock tune, The Who’s “My Generation.”
A Familiar Tune is a cheesy dance synth-based mashup. I caught the use of Pachelbel’s Canon and the Pet Shop Boys’ “Go West,” but I didn’t catch Puff the Magic Dragon and the Soviet national anthem by myself.
You Haven’t Done Nothin’ (Plump Mix) is a tighter remix of the politically aware 1974 Stevie Wonder original. So funky.
I’m experimenting with podcast tags a bit. Let me know what you think!
Oh man that funky bassline YES!
I Wish remixes Stevie Wonder’s song, and it thickens up the awesome starting riff.
The Biggie Blues is fun hip-hop, remixing Notorious B.I.G. with glitchy samples.
DJ Die Young’s remix of Bang Camaro’s Push Push provides an energetic, electro start to the week.
