A look into the life of a simple university kid: software engineer in-training and music mashup enthusiast.

You blocked me on Facebook… and now you are going to die.

Sup guys. Music’s been super slow lately, which you’ve all noticed, obviously (*reads the chat box*) lol. My iPod’s been thirsting for some new leakage. I thought now would be a good time for another installment of a “check out 7 random songs I like” :).

Knife Party - Internet Friends
My favourite part is definitely at 1:44, when some chick threatens to kill you and then the beat drops. Unz unz unz.

Coldplay - In My Place
Old-school Coldplay. I miss this.

Ratatat - Drugs
I swear Ratatat is the best study music. Been listening to this loads over the past week.

Gorillaz - 19-2000 [Soulchild Remix]
Beats the original any day.

Childish Gambino - Kids
My friend introduced me to Childish Gambino a couple months ago. His new album Camp is a great listen. This is one of my fave tracks at the moment.

Sean Kingston [ft. Nicki Minaj] - Born To Be Wild
Most times, I don’t care about Sean Kingston’s music because it’s your average run-of-the-mill pop that sounds like every other song on the radio. …but this song samples The Lion Sleeps Tonight!

Beyonce & Jon McLaughlin - Smash Into You
The song Smash Into You can be found on Beyonce’s album I Am.. Sasha Fierce. However, the track was also recorded by an artist named Jon McLaughlin, and someone on YouTube went and made a cool little blend of the two recordings. I love the harmonies.
