The calendar tells us that the summer season is winding down. But the summer still has some partying to do, and on Deedlecast, the gritty summer hip-hop doesn't have to end. DJDeedle's remixed an remasterd "Hip-Hop Summer Don't Stop" from August 22, 2008.
Don't stop. Just don't.
Note: Rude words in this one
On May 29, 2009, DJDeedle implemented "Plan 9." As we've seen from the sweeping changes since that date, the plan was entirely effective. This week, DJDeedle has dusted off the plan, given it a new, cleaner, and clearer sound.
It's time to implement "Plan 9" from DJDeedlespace.
A life lived to its fullest inevitably means the occasional broken heart. The immediate aftermath, the rebound, is guaranteed to be a touchy and quixotic period. In 2008, DJDeedle brought you the unique sound of the rebound. This week, "Rebound Sound" is back, remixed, remastered, and filled to the brim with that musical rebound angst we all love.
In September of 2008, long before iRobot was just some silly vacuum cleaner that scares the cat, DJDeedle brought you iRobot the Deedlecast. DJDeedle knew then that even robots need music. Not unlike ourselves, songs of love, loneliness, lust, loyalty, longing, and loss nourish their circuits and gears. That classic sound is back again, remixed and remastered for 2014.
No matter what kind of robot you happen to be, this Deedlecast will speak to you. All robots depicted in this Deedlecast are purely fictional, and have no relation to me.
It's all new an just out of the box. A shiny new mix from the Deedlecast beatbox to get your August started on the right note. Don't let the summer heat get you down. Turn on the Beatbox for a breath of fresh air.
Don't be afraid to get close to the sun. Our star gives us life, light, and nourishment, and inspires us to reach for its warmth, to attain perihelion.
Join DJDeedle as he chills in the warmth of the sun.
DJDeedle doesn't know what planet you're on, but he wants to be on it with you. This week #Deedlecast reprises that January 2009 mission to the mysterious and marvelous "Planet X."
Sometimes to get the result you want, you have to play a little good-cop-bad-cop: the hard with the soft, the rough with the smooth, the gentle with the cruel. This week's Deedlecast plays all those cards and breaks down even the toughest veneer, the most hardened felon, the baddest riff, the blackest beat. Before listening to this show, you may want to call your lawyer.
Enjoy this remastered and remixed Deedlecast classic from December 2009.
This all new Deedlecast does for sound what a kaleidoscope does for colors. Vivid, rich, amazing patterns emerge from the most unlikely combinations of simple elements.
Now you can have kaleidoscope ears to go with those famous kaleidoscope eyes.
In October 2009, Deedlecast Laboratories cooked up a collection of beats ranging from the rock, reggae, and R&B variety to beat break, metal, dub, hipop, and jazz. This little beat experiment is back, remastered, remixed, and better than ever.
Remember, as Richard Buckminster Fuller, the inventor of the Bucky Ball, famously said, “There is no such thing as a failed experiment, only experiments with unexpected outcomes.”
This week's Deedlecast experiment is just one of those unexpected outcomes.
DJDeedle has to leave his tropical island paradise for a quick trip to an island of entirely different sort: Manhattan. Join him as we revisit this classic Deedlecast from 2008, "Loving New York," remastered and remixed for 2014
There are as many ways to love New York as there are things to love about New York. One of the things DJDeedle loves about New York is its sound. In the same way the city's diverse inhabitants mix and mingle in to make New York one of the most extraordinary places on Earth, the diverse sounds and musical styles of the city, from the refined and classic to the gritty and cutting edge, come together into something compelling and fresh.
Just how do you love New York?
Warning: New York style language throughout this Deedlecast.
Back in July 2008, things were pretty bleak. The economy was in the toilet, gas prices were at an all time high, wages were falling, the housing bubble burst, and the stock market sagging. Consumers were really feeling the pinch. DJDeedle implemented his own stimulus package, slashing tempos, dropping keys, and cutting and splicing, well, everything. "Down, Down, Down" is back, remixed and remastered for 2014. It's guaranteed to raise your spirits, if not your 401(k) or house value, this Deedlecast has all the elements you need for a strong recovery!
Summer has arrived and it's going to be a hot one. So, you'd better own the heat before it owns you. This week, DJDeedle ignites the season with a hot new mix to set your summer on fire.
A recording made by Thomas Edison in 1877 has long been thought to be the first artificially recorded sound. It turns out the first recordings were made in 1860 by Frenchman, Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville, using a Phonautograph. The recording medium was merely paper covered in soot, so the sound literally emerges from smoke. As a result of advances in audio technology, these phonautograph recordings can now be heard again using lasers which do not damage or degrade these precious artifacts.
This Deedlecast is a remastered and remixed ("refixed") version of the classic Deedlecast, "Phonautograph," which aired on June 20, 2008. "Phonautograph" starts with the very first sound ever recorded using the phonautograph (albeit altered quite a bit by dj magic). There are some other similarly altered phonautographic bits and pieces sprinkled throughout the show.
Learn more about the phonautograph.
This Deedlecast gem from 2007 has been begging for a facelife using more modern technology for re-release in 2014. "Music for Murder" is back with a little modern makeover. Remixed, remasterd, and completely refitted. It's mood music in a jugular vein. Truly, to die for!
No need to pull out your change for this jukebox. The tunes are on DJDeedle. This week DJDeedle brings you a selection of heroes of the jukebox. This classic Deedlecast from 2009 has been remastered from the original 160kbps to glorious 320kbps sound for 2014.
BREAKING: Fresh new sound from the Deedlecast Studios this week. DJDeedle's taken his break and is back again with brand new mixes and mashes for 2014.
Deedlecast is back! Spread the news!

The rebellious sounds of alternative rock and funk join forces this week, combining their strengths into a complex groove. Electric bass and drums move front and center, with the distinctive beat of funk rock, funkcore, and electrofunk moving nicely through the mix.
Ancient yet modern, inviting yet forbidding, well studied yet mysterious, our planet's largest continent is a a tapestry of contrasts and contradictions, sewn together with hidden harmonies and unexpected ideas. This week, a report from Deedlecast's Asia Bureau provides a glimpse of where the sweeping Asian epic has been and where it is going.
