Need Your Love - The Temper Trap - RAC Mix - Click to download.
RAC never misses and this remix of Need Your Love doubles down on that. Jamming song with a really cool 80’s vibe to it. On another note, I returned from a weekend of debauchery in Montreal. If you haven’t been to that city, I strongly urge you to do so. Only a 5 hour drive from Boston, it’s worth every second. Wow. Great music, beautiful women, great food, what’s not to love…
by Kanye West featuring Vega Choir - Urban Noize Remix
Damn this is a phenomenal mashup. Production duo/brothers, Urban Noize, mashup Kanye’s verse from Drake’s “Forever” and vocals from Vega Choir’s cover of Radiohead’s “Creep”. The result is this beautiful piece of music. Enjoy.

Say Hello vs Because - Jay-Z vs The Beatles vs T-Pain - The Melker Project - Click to download.
I’ll let Mr. Scott Melker tell you a little bit about this track: When you find a rare Beatles acappella you are morally obligated to use it. “Because” is an incredible song - 3 voices, recorded 3 times to create a 9 part harmony. “Say Hello” is also amazing. Perhaps my favorite track from “American Gangster.” Throw in a little T-Pain and you have a recipe for amazing.

So What Cha Want - Beastie Boys - The Record Company cover - Click to download.
LA based, The Record Company, does their bluesy rendition/tribute of So What Cha Want in honor of Adam Yauch’s (MCA) recent passing. It’s a horrible tragedy that the universe has taken this musician from us. But his life and life’s work are now being celebrated. It’s sad that it takes one’s passing to realize what a true talent and amazing person we had. Heaven just got one more great talent… RIP MCA 1964-2012

Mayoral fave, Azad Right is at it again with this dope track featuring Luna Angel and produced by Professor O. It’s no secret that I dig Azad’s sound. It’s genuine and endearing and makes the listener feel like they’re not getting some gimmicky upstart. Dig it.
by Emiliana Torrini
I originally posted this song, way back when and rediscovered it on my flight out west this weekend. Wowzers. So damn good, I couldn’t NOT repost it. So now I bend on one knee and ask the music gods, in their infinite wisdom, “PLEASE PLEASE make Jai Paul drop his album NOW.” Jai Paul is the truth and one of the best new artists of… well, ever. Dig this. - Bold statement? Yeah probably, but got damn…
