Mashup: I Feel Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger Love

We're suckers for a good old mashup combining two or more worlds. Since Daft Punk and Giorgio Moroder collaborated on Random Access Memories what better than mixing the former's 2001 single Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger with the eternal Donna Summer 1977 masterpiece I Feel Love? Even throw in some of the trailblazing 1981 Patrick Cowley remix! Perfection even! That distinct Moroder beat never ever feels out of date and the blaring robotic voice adds a whole new futuristic feel to it, with Cowley's old school futurism working its way in midway. Enjoooy! Thanks DJ Alain Vinet!

Donna Summer - I Feel Love (Giorgio Moroder 2012 Remix)

I Feel Love - the 1977 electronic masterpiece by Donna Summer, Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte was added to the American National Recording Registry this year - and really, how could it not be? The criteria it more than qualifies for as "culturally, historically, or aesthetically important, and/or inform or reflect life in the United States." This iconic song will live forever for sure! Since the world of music lost Donna to cancer earlier this year it feels like the perfect tribute. We love that Giorgio is so active in social media and releases goodies on a weekly basis as well. His 2012 remix of I Feel Love premiered at the Louis Vuitton show at Munich Fashion Week in Arabellapark. All this is wonderful as it comes full circle thinking it was recorded all those years ago in Munich's Arabella-Hochhaus and history was made. Speaking of full circle; this remix made us think of the classic 15+ minute remix odyssey from 1978 by electronic music pioneer Patrick Cowley. This version sounds deep and fresh and we cannot wait for the full length version to drop! Go Giorgio!
