The best Howard Dean remix yet! (I think)



Well you know being in radio and loving to audio edit stuff...I had to do it!



So here it is in MP3:



Rob Base, DJ EZ Rock, Howard Dean "It Takes Two" www.bigrick.fm remix



or same thing here



A windows media file from my KFOG FM page.



And a short little thing I did with Apple's GarageBand. It is 30 seconds so it could be an ad for Dean, or um Kerry, or well I guess G.W. even...insert your favorite tag at the end!



Howard Dean Rocks





"It Takes Two" was the first song that came into mind when I was trying to think of a song with a good yelling sample. I love the song. It takes me back to doing Live 105 nights at The Palladium nightclub in San Francisco with DJ Chill and Steve X. It is really one of the best dance/rap songs of all time. Apologies to Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock...



Ya know I did this audio edit and listened to the sound bite over and over while doing it and I think "the speech" really was great. I read what Doc wrote and I really agree.



Dean's passion was great. Just the fact that someone does something so out of step with what media consultants might want them to do makes it stand out even more.



Today I saw a news clip of Dean bagging apples in a clearly staged event, no passion, boring, and it was such a stark contrast to "the speech." If the content of "the speech" was a passionate political point it would have been a real rallying point. I think the content and style didn't match. But I like it anyway. Ted Kennedy does (almost) the same kind of speech (but about issues) and doesn't get (much) crap for it.



I don't think going on Letterman was a great idea, it is like crawling inside the punchline and becoming the joke. Bring on more speeches and less apple bagging.



I think Dean is a really long shot to win now. He'd be a great radio host!
