Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Heads Will Roll (A-Trak Remix) **UPDATE**

Yeah Yeah Yeahs Heads Will Roll (A Trak Remix) **UPDATE** mp3

The last time a big named decided to remix the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, it left a sour taste in my mouth. When I heard A-Trak dropped a killer remix of YYY’s “Heads Will Roll” at this year’s Lollapalooza, I knew I had to get my hands on it. Unfortunately, A-Trak has kept a tight lid on this one, only letting good friends like Busy P and Erol Alkan play it in their sets.

Thankfully, the ever-dependable Annie Mac and her BBC Radio 1 show, we now have a radio rip of this killer remix. Annie herself says that she thinks this remix is A-Trak’s best work to-date. I thank the magnificent Disco Dust for the full quality version of the remix.

For months I have said that “Heads Will Roll” was the most remixable track of ‘09, what “Kids” was in 2008. “Kids” had Justice Pet Shop Boys and Soulwax remixes to its credit, and I believe “Heads Will Roll” deserves the same quality of treatment.

Some Remixes on a Sunday #3

Some Remixes on a Sunday #3 mp3

Continuing this from two Sundays ago.

It’s crazy how many great mixes you can across in a single week. These 10 were my favorite finds of the week. Big thanks to Ohh! Crapp, Fancy Sounds, Sundtrak, HypeM, and probably the biggest shout out goes to the people who send me their mixes!

On the last “Some Remixes on a Sunday” post, I focused a lot on movies. Mostly the films that I wanted to see. Since then, I have seen Frost/Nixon, The Wrestler, The Reader, Defiance, and Happy-Go-Lucky. I’m still DYING to watch Rachel Getting Married. For some reason, something gets in the way of me watching it at the theater whenever I decide to go out and watch it. And the torrent is nowhere to be found, a little less than a month away from the Oscars. It’s driving me nuts! I’m a sucker for contemp dramas — yes, I’m really pissed at the way Revolutionary Road was royally dissed on the Oscar nominations — so if any of your have some sort of Rachel Getting Married hook-up, pass it along,  yeah?

I can’t really talk much, listening to this new Weezy track that’s sort of ridiculous. Weezy doing rock music is definitely not my cup of tea. More about it tomorrow. Till then, here are my favorite mixes of the week! Continue reading →

New Kanye West – Sky High Mixtape

New Kanye West Sky High Mixtape mp3

I think I will always underestimate what kind of impact releasing a mixtape before an album drops will have on sales and general reception of the album. It can’t be too bad — Lil Wayne basically releases a few dozen of them before each of his records; and Kanye West is no stranger of mixtapes, either. Didn’t he release his Graduate mixtape a little bit before Graduation saw its release?

This Sky High mixtape, somewhat narrarated by DJ Benzi and Plain Pat, doesn’t really feature anything from Kanye West’s 808’s and Heartbreak (save from a “Love Lockdown” remix), but features some of the best Kanye remixes around. Every top-notch producer showed up for class today; we’ve got Diplo, A-Trak, Kickdrums, and Benzi in attendence. Man, even Kanye dropped the school-related puns. I just can’t let something die, huh?

Catch the mixtape and a few highlights below! Continue reading →

MSTRKRFT – Bounce (A-Trak Remix)

MSTRKRFT Bounce (A Trak Remix) mp3

Ah, the long awaited “Bounce” remix by DJ A-Trak has finally hit the internet. It seems people were generally split between love and hate when MSTRKFT’s “Bounce” first it the web. I really wouldn’t say I hated it — but I really wasn’t impressed at all. The first few remixes of “Bounce” weren’t so bad, but A-Trak definitely takes the cake. Continue reading →

New Justice (ft. Daft Punk, Kanye West, Diplo, A-Trak) – Fortisphere (Immuzikation Blend)

New Justice (ft. Daft Punk, Kanye West, Diplo, A Trak) Fortisphere (Immuzikation Blend) listen

Pretty Much Amazing favorite Immuzikation is always hot on the trail of the freshest buzz around the blogs. He wasted no time blending and molding Justice’s superhyped “Planisphere” with some Daft Punk, KanYeezy, Diplo, and Ye’s bud A-Trak. This guy is one busy DJ — thats why we like him so much.

A pat in the back? No, this guy deserves a medal.
