Futuristic Cypher - My Homies Still (remix)

This guy Future took Wayne's beat and absolutely murdered it! For those of you who don't know, that's a good thing.  Download at their website http://www.onlyfuturistic.com/ while it's still free because Futuristic is going to blow up for sure.

High Rankin and Tigerlight - Hundred Miles High

This is quite possibly the hardest, heaviest, meanest Dubstep I have heard in some time.  The bass line reminds me of Borgore, a self-proclaimed "Gorestep" DJ who I posted about last month.  Take that as you may.  The vocals are weird, but you serious Dub fans out there wont care.  Needless to say, this song is not for the faint of heart.  Give it a listen... if you dare.  However,  if you don't have a decent subwoofer, don't even bother.  In fact, don't even bother with this website.  Go home and rethink your life.  Or just buy a better subwoofer.  Until then, I will pray for you.

YoungBloodZ feat. Lil' Jon - Damn! (MISCHIEF R∑miχ)

It's official.  I love Trap music.  It's the best party fuel out there, and I think it's time we learned a little about where it came from.  Originating in the south, Trap music is Hip-Hop's response to the electronic craze that is sweeping the nation.  The subtle builds and drops along with the heavy, bouncing bass of Dirty South became signature to artists such as T.I., Jeezy, Lil Webby, and of course, Lil Jon.  Add a little more electronic, and boom, you've got Trap.

Dream - This Isn't House

This most certainly is not House.  Dream, the relatively unrecognized London producer, is now debuting in the US, signing with Skrillex's OWSLA label... and he is DOPE! This really reminds me of Dubstep back when it was first being born.  Fundamental Dub at its best.  Comparable, I would say, to fellow London producer, Rusko.  This is a set comprised of the original mix as well as a few remixes.  You can decide which one you like best but I still prefer the original.  Download courtesy of This Song Is Sick.com.

Throwback Jams

Throwbacks to somewhere around the end of freshman year have been coming up on shuffle recently and I want to make sure everyone has these essentials.  First off, when someone tells you they have a mash up of Biggie rapping over Pavarotti, you immediately investigate.


Now this next one is one of the most played songs on my iTunes so I had to pay my respects.  For many people the theme song to NBC's, The Office, has become iconic.  To hear that tune mixed into an instrumental and then mixed again with Weezy's, "Hustler Musik," (before he started to suck) absolutely blew my mind when I first heard it.

Flosstradamus - Rollup (Baauer Remix)

Keeping with the theme, and increasing popularity, of Trap music, here is another jam from Trap king Flosstradamus.  I've posted several of his songs on this site already but his most memorable work for me still is his remix of Major Lazer's "Original Don", one of my all time favorites.  This is also the second showing of Baauer on this site this month!  Possible artist on the rise?  I can't wait to see what comes next from him.  Check it out.

Face Off - Flatbush Zombie

By now I'm sure most people have heard of the incident in Miami involving "bath salts" and a crazed, face-eating homeless man.  In hindsight of the ridiculous situation, it is only appropriate that a rap group known as Flatbush Zombie (how fitting) decided to make a ridiculous song in homage called "Face Off."  After an audio sample from a news report on the incident, the rap duo goes off demonstrating how drugs can really fuck up your mind set... It's violent and degrading on a scale that almost reminds me of Odd Future.  Watch out Tyler, you've got competition.
(not for the easily offended)  ... Don't say I didn't warn you.

B#tch City (3LAU Bootleg)

For all you lucky bastards heading to Randals Island at the end of summer for 2012's Electric Zoo, 3LAU is the act to see!  This guy is the KING of mashing party-fueling bangers with radio pop music.  I never thought I would be ragging to Adele or Roxette's, "Listen To Your Heart," but when they are set to a bass-bumping, electro anthem by R3hab it couldn't be easier to believe.  I'll be down south at SMU already, but to all my New Yorkers, Sunday is the day to go and 3LAU is the man to see.  Trust me.  B#tch City is off of 3LAU's second EP, "Dance Floor Filth 2" (from which I already posted the popular "Petty Language"), and you should definitely check out the whole thing.

Zedd - Spectrum (feat. Matthew Koma)

This track has been circulating for a while now but I hadn't found a solid stream until recently.  Zedd KILLS this one, and I have never really been a sucker for Zedd.  Buy the whole song on iTunes, but enjoy this sample stream for free.  Also download 3LAU's free progressive house remix.  It's actually very similar with just a few added synths that, in my opinion clutter it up too much (I like the original better, but hey, this version is free).


Alex Clare - Too Close

I was watching the Olympic opening ceremonies last week when a great add aired for Internet Explorer's new interface.  Although I'm sure Internet Explorer 9 is great, what really caught my attention was the poppy, dubstepy song playing in the background.  It wasn't terribly hard to find but I wanted to share it anyway because I had never heard of Alex Clare before.  However, after some research I discovered that the song was actually produced by Diplo; Major Lazer's leading man, and one of my all-time favorites.  This is the kind of Dubstep that is bringing the genre into the mainstream.  Also check out the music video.  It's a little weird, but it gives you something to watch while you listen.
