U-GO-BOY remixes are amazing as always. I enjoy this EP a lot more than the official Do What U Want remix.  :music: 

I'm such a flop I've had no time to listen to the new one yet :toofloppy:

Chica spends all year gathering and keeping her eyes out for the Advent Calender, so she deserves massive praise and love!! She's very selfless by putting this together.

DAY 21

DISCO GAGA

All the way from Japan, we are very happy to present this rare compilation cover album in it's entirety for the first time online.

This album, originally part of a very popular 3 album set in Japan, was un-Googleable on the Internet and out of print in stores and throughout the web ever since 2011. It is part of a series, including "Reggae Gaga" and "Jazzy Gaga", which were later followed up by the completely un-findable "Punk Gaga","Metal Gaga", and most recently, "Bossa Gaga" (an exploration in BossaNova interpretations of Gaga sound).

"Reggae Gaga", (four songs from which were featured earlier in this countdown) was the most popular of the 3 albums, as stated here in this press release At the time of Reggae Gaga's release, it's sisters Jazzy and Disco were already topping the charts on Japanese Itunes:

"Reggae Gaga is one of three albums released simultaneously in tribute to the American singer by Universal International in Japan. The other two are Jazzy Gaga, currently at number six on iTunes jazz albums chart in Japan and Disco Gaga, currently at number one on iTunes dance albums charts in Japan.

The albums were released five days prior Lady Gaga dropping Born This Way (Universal Music) which currently tops iTunes' Top 10 album charts in 21 countries.

Explaining the reason for the tribute albums, Universal said that Gaga was its best pop icon and it wanted to honour her with versions of "proven popular songs" with "daring arrangements".

An example of the daring arrangements you can find on Disco Gaga:

THE POKER FACEBOOK

Remixer Greg Dunbar, creator of the critically acclaimed 'Poker Facebook' EP, has released here for the first time a GagaDaily EXCLUSIVE edit made especially for this Christmas Countdown celebration.

 

Lady Gaga: The Poker Facebook (RoomDrifter Extended Remix) 12-22-2013

http://soundcloud.com/chicaskas/poker-facebook-roomdrifter

 

I had the pleasure of being able to interview Mr. Dunbar briefly about his works on the 'Poker Facebook' EP.

Greg Dunbar:

"Hello, Chica! Thank you again for your interest in this! Lady Gaga just has an uncanny range both vocally and across genres, which makes her such a fantastic artist to mix, mash and experiment with. She also gives off the perception of welcoming all interpretations of art, both created by her and others. That really helps boosting the confidence of those who are inspired to reimagine her work."

 

 

ChicaSkas:

"What parts were more challenging to mix when you were producing The Poker Facebook?"

 

 

Greg Dunbar:

 

"Some of the songs were just a lucky match (the intro, for example, a live performance of Poker Face that naturally fit well with 'Creep' from The Social Network's trailer). Others were a bit tougher, most notably "Telephone the Whole" which I tried 500 different ways before resorting to just sampling Reznor's track and making a whole new pop beat underneath the vocals."

 

ChicaSkas:

"How were you inspired to make this unique set?"

 

Greg Dunbar:

"I was floored by Trent Reznor's soundtrack for The Social Network, but couldn't figure out what to do with it. The girl I was crushing on at the time loved movies and had just told me her favorite artist was Gaga, so I thought combining the two would be the perfect way to impress her. I realized how eye-rollingly similar my motives were to that of Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network (the film bookends with his desire to impress a girl), but the difference is that by the time I finally finished the mashups, I had lost interest in her and still haven't sent it to her."

 

ChicaSkas:

"So, what's your favorite song on the EP?"

 

Greg Dunbar:

"Probably the final track (Monster vs. Painted Sun in Abstract), mainly because Monster is easily my favorite Lady Gaga song. It's definitely the most experimental of the mix, so I tried taking that to next level with soundbites from the film."

 

ChicaSkas:

"Where can we discover more of your mashups and remixes?"

 

Greg Dunbar:

 

"Feel Free to contact me!"

____________________________________________

 

And so I would!

Greg created the EP entitled: Lady Gaga: The Poker Facebook" in mid-2011. I didn't discover it until months later, when I was scouring SoundCloud as usual for Gaga remixes... and by chance saw his works in a Mash-Up group.

 

The hauntingly gorgeous choral version of Radiohead's 'Creep'; mashed with 'Poker Face', entitled 'Intro-Seduction', stood out to me instantly as a very beautiful standalone ballad, with the piano tones and pleading vocals melding perfectly to produce this oddly Christmassy vibe. I fell in LOVE with it. But, the original track was too short, at barely over one minute long, and had an abrupt ending that coincided with the soundtrack of the film at that point.... akwardly. So I contacted Roomdrifter again on SoundCloud. He patiently listened to my ideas of an extension and a better ending to the track, and to my utter delight he agreed to remake his work for our aural pleasure!

So it is with great happiness that I present the finished track to you here today, to celebrate the incredible versatility Gaga's voice offers, and the endless creative bounds her fanbase achieves every day, interpreting her works of sound and her message.

Many thanks to the creator Greg Dunbar aka RoomDrifter!
