Best Remixes of 2010 (as posted on Mahogany)
(a mahogany tree!)
What better way to do a round-up of than post our favourite remixes posted over the last 12 months.
After trawling through all the posts it’s amazing to see how much good music came out and we only posted a fraction of what was out there.
Anyway, below are our favourite remixes posted on The Mahogany Blog in 2010.
1. The xx – Crystalised (Neon Lights Remix) - download
Smooth, sleek and out of all of the xx remixes over the past year – this one takes the biscuit.

2. Gorillaz – Stylo (MAK Dubstep Bootleg Remix) – download
Unknown producer MAK dropped this remix to us during the hype of Plastic Beach and it’s got enough clout to be a commissioned piece of work.

5. Raheem DeVaughn – I Dont Care (DYMs Dubjam Remix) - download
DYM put out a lot of work in 2010 and during that time he transformed an R&B slow jam into a deep ‘dubstep’ experience – demonstrating much needed diversity. Bravo.

6. Mojib – Mayday Revisited with UNKLE and The Radio Dept – download
UNKLE’s pacey and bold original was ‘revisited’ by Swedish producer Mojib and turned into a beautiful lo-fi alternative track.

I’ve had MAK’s bootleg of “Stylo” lodged in my head since
first hearing it on Mahogany–superb track. Thanks for all the free
tracks last year; looking forward to lots more in 2011. Really
enjoy the blog.
