Crookers x Cudi x Mehdi

Posted on Jun 27th, 2009

Over on DJ Mehdi’s excellent blog, when he’s not shouting out Compton’s Most Wanted, Wu samples and his favorite international deejays, he’s posting up gems from his “vault” of unfinished and unreleased remixes. The newest websclusive is this remix of Crookers and Kid Cudi’s “Embrace The Martian” that was never quite finalized but still jams. Enjoy, and stay tuned for the Fool’s Gold Crookers EP this remix was first intended for, featuring new mixes of “Embrace…” by Seiji, DJ Gant-Man’s take on “Knobbers” and the finished version of “What Up Y’all” with Izza Kizza vox. Out soon! And while you’re staying tuned, Mehdi’s RED BLACK AND BLUE: Some Remixes By DJ Mehdi is out 9/9/09 on Ed Banger.

Rappin Ass Thursdays #4

Posted on Jun 25th, 2009

Sadly kicking off the fourth week of Rappin Ass Thursday’s with the news that Michael Jackson has passed away. Here’s an appropriate tune from The Finisher featuring yet another king who is no longer with us.

Mister Cee – “Where Brooklyn At (MJ Right Here Mix)” [mp3]

Rest in power! New tunes from the Snowman, Jacka, Daytona & Bun B, and Curtiiiiiiis after the jump. Read More

Young (Juke) Money, Bay-bay!

Posted on Jun 24th, 2009

Young Money’s hit “Every Girl” is inescapable on the radio in NYC (and most likely where you live too) this summer, and while we more than agree with the moral of the song, hearing Wayne and Drake every ten minutes gets to be a little much – enough is enough! Fortunately DJ Gant-Man saves the day with a clever remix that keeps the tune fresh and jukin. Enjoy!

“Every Girl (Gant-Man Back It Up Juke Mix)” DIRTY [mp3]
“Every Girl (Gant-Man Back It Up Juke Mix)” CLEAN [mp3]

Check Gant out if you’re in Chicago tonight or Paris this Friday (and be sure to wish him a happy birthday!) and cop his Fool’s Gold single “Juke Dat Girl” on iTunes or Beatport.

Thunderheist – Nothing 2 Step 2 (Sammy Bananas Remix)

Thunderheist – Nothing 2 Step 2 (Sammy Bananas Remix) [MP3]

Another week, another epic remix from your man Sammy B! (why do I give all this stuff away??)  Thunderheist is a Toronto duo on Big Dada who are currently on tour for forever in support of their newly released, self-titled album.  Grahm is a beast on the boards and Isis is one hell of a live performer (secretly she can really rap her ass off too.)  I had a blast making this one so cop, pop and rock.

Rappin Ass Thursdays #3

Posted on Jun 18th, 2009

Psyched about this week’s edition because it features a lot of tunes I haven’t really seen get much shine on the usual internet channels – which is exactly what I wanted this column to showcase (as opposed to my two cents on, like, “Death Of Autotune.” No shots…)

Hit the jump for new Bone Thugs & Harmony, TI, Camp Lo, Killer Mike, DJ Deadeye and Friends, Bounceback, and – just because – a dancehall song. Read More

DJ Sneak vs Kid Cudi

Posted on Jun 17th, 2009

If you’ve been out to check OG “house gangster” DJ Sneak at the clurrrb any time this past year, you probably noticed a thumping new mix of “Day ‘N’ Nite” bumping out of the speakers. Well, turns out it’s Sneak’s personal creation, and we’re happy to share it with y’all today.

“Day ‘N’ Nite (Sneak Bang Acido Mix)” [mp3]

For more Sneak on Fool’s Gold, pick up Laidback Luke & A-Trak’s “Shake It Down” vinyl / digital single for his epically groovy “Sneak’s Shaken Beats” mix.
