I'll admit, Thriller was one of my first record purchases. But I didn't listen to much after that. That is, until I started listening to jungle, electro, mash-up and those sorts of sample-heavy musics. Classic Michael Jackson melodies are the basis of bangin' dance tunes with more energy than yr average 80's night. The best MJ remixes I've ever heard are by DJ C - a master musician and head...
I went to the NME.com Web site this morning to see if I had missed the usual UK news about how Pete Doherety had taken some fans on a looped-out, drug-binge, double-decker bus ride around London (I had) and came across this headline: "Demand for Michael Jackson gigs crashes ticket website."

In a statement issued by the Chicago based firm LifeGem, which specialises in converting the carbon in hair into diamonds, the hair was scooped up at the scene of the Pepsi shoot by ex...

We got the new Jimmy Edgar remix, in which he takes on Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean… Yeah we know, but I assure you that this is not your typical MJ remix. The track drips with the intelligent synth work of Jimmy Edgar, but he grinds it out for the dancefloor with a straight bangin’ beat. [...]
