Suit & Tie (Dillon Francis Remix) – Justin Timberlake : Official Trap Remix

Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: , , , ,

Yeah I didn’t think I would be posting a remix to Suit & Tie either, but then Dillon Francis managed to give his signature trap treatment to the pop hit. He does some heavy signture vocal sampling completely reworking Justin’s vocals into sounding more like a robot with some powerful 808s. Considering this is an official remix, Dillon will probably start becoming more of a house hold name. No set release date yet. What are your thoughts?

Posted in Chill by nick | Tags: , , , ,

The annual “Hottest MC’s” from MTV has come around again, and Detroit based Danny Brown drops off a track to dimiss the entire list aptly titled #HottestMC. He delivers some powerful almost angry flow throughout the entire track potentially being driven by his lack of placement on the list. The beat produced by Harry Fraud featuring a mood setting sample from UK Amorphous Androgynous. As Danny himself states “That song wasn’t to diss nobody,” ”I just wanted to show niggas I can think of a #Bar or 2 lol.” And that he does. Sit back, enjoy, and wait for his upcoming OLD mixtape.

Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Whoaa… When GRiZ and Gramatik team up for their side project Grizmatik, incredible things happen. Today we get the preview of their latest massive single “My People”. We got the first taste with their Digital Liberation Is Mad Freedom complete with music video, and this track might top it. They fuse funk, soul, and gritty bass unlike any artists I have heard. These two teaming up is an insane combination. you can hear both artists shine through heavily. Even though this is just a sample, you can tell it’s gonna be quite the anthem. Can’t wait for the release.

Also don’t miss their main stage performance at this year’s SnowBall Music Festival in Winter Park this weekend March 8th – 10th. Enjoy.
