Gucci Time

I love the fact that one of my favorite hip hop producers - Swizz Beatz - has a special affinity for French electronic rockers JUSTICE. First he used a JUSTICE track for HOV's "On to the Next One"; now he flips another for the lead single off Gucci Mane's The Appeal out this fall. Straight banger.

Cooler Couleur (Remeddy edit)

So a few hours after posting the banging Junkie XL remix of the Crookers track below, the homie DJ Remeddy hit me up and told me he was working on an edit of that very track. Dude definitely has an ear for it and is a skilled DJ and remixer. As you'll see, the way he lays Justice's anthem "We Are Your Friends" over this takes it to a whole other level.

And as a sneak preview, this is also one of the tracks from my brand new mix, dropping very soon!!!

Justice & Soulwax

I wrote about Justice and Soulwax back in October.

I went to Amoeba Records in SF over the weekend, picked these up, and knew that Christmas shopping for myself was complete.


Here's just a taste...

Justice - Final (Metallica)

Soulwax - Move My Body (Live at Fabric)

I'd advise you to do the same...

The Kickdrums

Um, why haven't I heard about The Kickdrums until now? Their new mixtape "Things Don't Change" is a big delicious pie of indie dance beats and hip hop vocals. It seems as though it's harder and harder these days to find a mixtape on which everything is good, but on here everything is.

Here's the standout track for me: Justice remixed MGMT's "Electric Feel" and then Steve1der added Kanye's "Touch The Sky" to it. One of the best mashups I've heard in a long time.

MGMT vs Justice vs Kanye West - Electric Feel (Steve1der mash)


Now grab the whole mixtape here and rock out. Also look out for the sick mashup of Black Kids with Lil Wayne...
