The New Wave phenomenon of the 1980s brought a new sound and beat to the music world. Bands like Orchestral Manoeuvers in the Dark and New Order pioneered the groundbreaking sound that changed music forever. It's been decades since the New Wave was new. Now, in honor of the new year, DJDeedle reinvigorates the New Wave sound of synth-based twitchy melodies, with agitated rhythm guitars, fast tempos, as well as those stop-and-start song structures and melodies so characteristic of the genre. This Deedlecast starts off with a DJDeedle original remix of OMD's "Sister Marie," which captures the sound and rhythm of New Wave, updated for 2011.
This week, the New New Wave.

Leaving a legacy takes planning, foresight, and cold calculation. This week, DJDeedle's got all the processors running and all circuits functioning to create a moment in music you won't soon forget. Step inside the digital mind and experience a "Strong Legacy." 
A dear and longtime friend of DJDeedle's mentioned the other day that he had been working back-to-back night shifts. Since that time, the Commodores' song "Night Shift" has been playing in the DJ's head. When that happens, these songs on mental replay more often than not collide with other beats, rhythms, and other songs. And so, the Commodores' 1982 hit, "Night Shift," finds itself in 2011, familiar, yet transformed in this DJDeedle single mash/remix. 
America music influences culture all over the world. We've exported our jazz, rock n roll, hip-hop, and rap to the rest of the globe. Those forms of music pick up new influences along the way and get reimported and reintegrated into American sound. It's time for a new Americana for the 21st century. This week DJDeedle presents "Americana 2.0."
This week, Deedlecast takes to the streets. On Street Level, you'll find the right tempo, the hustle and bustle, the best gritty grimy beats, and the sights and sounds that'll have you dancing in the streets.
