Sex Sax - Drop The Lime


Another killer track from Drop the Lime. Yes, I know I'm on the late bus on this one, but it's just too good of a record to not post it. A sax drop, a harmonica drop... what will this guy think of next?

VIDEO!: Man in a Raincoat - C-Villian


C-villain, a Eugene rapper originally from the bay area, has dropped the video for the first single off his upcoming album, A.D.D. The sample gives this one some smooth old-school vibes, and C-villain has got some serious lyrical talent. Be on the lookout for this guy.

Cloudlight - Eskmo


This is one of those songs that had to grow on me, but once I decided I liked it, I couldn't get enough. Not quite dubstep, but with a little bit of wobble, this is one crazy song. The video is what really made me fall in love with it though. Slow and lurching, but beautiful at the same time. To fully experience, lie down and listen with eyes closed, preferably on really nice headphones.

Skylark Interabang!? - ::M∆DE::IN::HEIGHTS::



UPDATE: Nab the whole EP HERE.


Sabzi, who many may know as the DJ/producer for Blue Scholars and Common Market, has a new project out, known around the interweb as ::M∆DE::IN::HEIGHTS::. I was super excited when I first heard this, and it did not disappoint. Skylark Interbang!? is without a doubt the best record off the EP/mixtape. Sabzi has taken his sound to a whole new level, and definitely in a different direction, but the track still sounds like a his work, and the vocals are just beautiful. Can't wait to hear more from these group.

United State of Pop 2010 (Don't Stop the Pop) - DJ Earworm


Near the end of every year, DJ Earworm puts out a song mashing up many of the hits from the previous year. This one isn't his best effort in my opinion, but I know a lot of people are gonna like this. It's always nice to reflect on the past, but 2011 is off to a great start, so let's keep it that way! Last year was a crazy one for music, with a lot of quality stuff put out, and I have a sneaking suspicion 2011 is only going to be better.

G.O.O.D. Friday (Feat. Common, Pusha T, Kid Cudi, Big Sean & Charlie Wilson) - Kanye West


The second of Kanye's G.O.O.D. Friday tracks I'm going to post; this one was my favorite until "Looking for Trouble" came out. It's still a ridiculous track though, with an awesome verses by Sean Don and Pusha. And the production? Too good. This has to be one of the best beats I've heard in a long time. It's going to be songs like this that 10 years from now will be this decades classic hip hop. I really can't stress enough how good this song is, so you probably should just go ahead and click that DL link.

Grin & Bear It (By LMNO) - The Beat Junkies


A classic mixtape from a classic crew. This is a cut by LMNO, with scratching by the World Famous Beat Junkies crew. The cut up piano sample sounds great, and the mixing by the Beat Junkies is top notch, as always. Hip hop doesn't get much better than this.

Bromance (The Love You Seek) [Avicii's Extended Vocal Mix] - Tim Berg



The best way to describe this monster of a house track is epic. The synths lift you up into the stratosphere. The vocals are sublime. Tim Berg has remixed his own track under his pseudonym Avicii, laying down some amazing Amanda Wilson vocals over an already epic track. This is some next level shit right here. Avicii is a house music king in the making.

VIDEO! - I Just Had Sex (Feat. Akon) -The Lonely Island


I'm sure many of you have already seen this, but just in case you haven't... I've got to give it up to Samberg and crew, when the first Lonely Island tracks came out, I never thought they'd see the sort of success they have in the past few years. "I Just Had Sex" is a another catchy song, this time with Akon on the chorus. I'm gonna have to say that "I'm on a Boat" is a little better (it was nominated for a Grammy after all), but only marginally. Best part of the video? Jessica Alba and Blake Lively. Duh.
