I got my BA in Mixtapeology at my fancy Liberal Arts School

I got my BA in Mixtapeology at my fancy Liberal Arts School covers

Mix – tape – ol – o – gy: New remixes and some covers you’ve (hopefully) never heard before.

Remixes on my mind
MGMT – Kids (Pet Shop Boys Synthpop Remix): Blows Soulwax’s remix out of the water. Seriously.
SebastiAn – Momy (Erol Alkan’s Simple, Yet Effective Edit): Simple, Yet Effective indeed.
Gorillaz – Dirty Harry (Disco Villains Remix): I haven’t some some sweet DV tracks in a while.
Late Of The Pier – Bathroom Gurgle (Tronik Youth Remix): Watch out for these guys next year.
DJ Mehdi – Pocket Piano (Chewy Chocolate Cookies Remix): I don’t show much love to Dh Mehdi or Chew Choco Cookies much. Hopefully this makes up for it a little.
Britney Spears – Circus (Junior Vasquez Remix Edit): I’ve decided that “Circus” is one of the best singles of 2008, oh and this remix isn’t bad either.
Gang Gang Dance – House Jam (Hot Chip Remix): I love Hot Chip and Gang Gang Dance is quickly getting on my good side. Match made in heaven.

Ivy League and Rich Kids are Synonymous

This Is Ivy League

Pretty Much Amazing’s Listening Booth is where we get to talk about our favorite new songs! Yay!

This Is Ivy League – The Richest Kids
Is this music or is this a mere exploitation of a hyped demographic *cough* Vampire Weekend *cough*? I’m glad to say, this is music. Real. Good. Music.

Wyclef Jean – Fast Car (remix feat. Lupe Fiasco)
At first, I thought this was just a new Lupe Fiasco track. Warning to those who want to add Cool Youg Lou to your remix team: He’s a verse hogger.

G-Unit – Grimey
In this new track from the upcoming G-Unit mixtape, 50 Cent confesses to being dirty, grimy, and filthy, but doesn’t go on to admit himself as a tired MC.



R. Kelly – Hairbraider
Obviously seeking to put claims about his kinky eccentricities to rest, R. Kelly has written this song about the qualities he looks for in a good hairdresser (chief among them: superior stripping ability).

And now moving onto our daily downloads. These are free and legal. So download away.

Foo Fighters – Keep The Car Running
Jens Lekman – Friday Night At The Drive-In Bingo
Athlete – Hurricane (Camp America Remix)
Justice – DANCE (Paste Black Remix)
Oh No! Oh My! – Finally Found A Home
The Fiery Furnaces – Ex-Guru
The New Pornographers – Myriad Harbour
They Might Be Giants – Careful What You Pack
The Mountain Goats – Sax Rohmer Number 1
Xiu Xiu – I Do What I Want, When I Want
