Kanye West just dropped the Official remix to the Powerhouse of a first single from his “still untitled” new LP (what ever happened to the title Good Ass Job?) due out in November. The remix features a few lines form Jay-Z and on-point production from Mr. Alicia Keys himself, Swizz Beatz, and most importantly Kanye West letting loose and absolutely killing the track — only to resurrect it and fucking kill it again. As a Kanye West fan, I can only hope that this level of swagger and passion translates into the rest of the new album. Listen to the “Power” remix below: (more…)

Brooklyn’s wonderfully hypnotic (and possibly psychotic) Blondes have chopped Rihanna Spring 2010 earworm “Rude Boy” to high heaven on this remix. Also: 1,000,000 bonus eMusic points to those who can name the slippery Mariah Carey sample.

This nasty cut is taken from a five-MP3 compilation called Autumn Feelings, which you can better grab here. Download the uber-hip Rihanna remix below: (more…)

To thank their fans for downloading and liking their new single, “Boy” off of their upcoming LP The Orchard, Ra Ra Riot are giving away a remix of the single, by none other than RAC, guaranteeing it to be awesome (it is). Grab the remix below, and then stream The Orchard in it’s entirety. The album is due out August 24 on Barsuk. (more…)

The dark and cerebral thumping that make up “Never Salad” are taken from Simian Mobile Disco’s upcoming mix CD, Simian Mobile Disco Is Fixed, the first release of a series of mixes. The inaugural mix CD will be released October 12, but you can download “Nerve Salad” below: (more…)
