For those not aware of who CSS are up until this point, you may recall a song for the iPod touch with the lyrics "music is my boyfriend..." Well, that song went with a commercial, which had actually been user created, then sent in by a lucky YouTuber, then selected by Apple to be on TV sometime last year. That song was called "Music Is My Hot Hot Sex" by CSS.
Since The Cribs were one of our favorite groups last year, breaking out from their not-so-great past before Men's Needs Women's Needs, Whatever arrived in 07', we have a lovely remix joining these two into one odd, yet pleasant combination. I won't lie, its hard to mess up remixing "Men's Needs", which was actually my favorite song from this album. So given the combination of my favorite song, from one of my favorite albums last year, with one of my favorite catchy Apple commercials from last year, it was only a matter of time before this all happened.

Possibly more moving is a remix by Cassettes Won't Listen of the Diggs' "Everyone's Starting Over". If you're familiar with The Diggs, their song "Recovery Forever" from their ctrl-alt-del album is off the charts. Since this is a remix and almost all band prescence, other than Timothy Lannen's vocals, are lost, I would say this sounds similar to their song "Careen". Add that on, with a 150+ bpm, and you've got some explosive tech-pop.
