LISTEN UP :: Hot As Hell / Drop The Lime / Remixed.

Hot As Hell, Drop The Lime's new single, has quite the Rockabilly sound and feel to it! Below are two remixes of the track. The first is a remix by Nouveau Yorican (aka Laidback Luke & Gina Turner) and the second is from Yolanda Be Cool. Drop The Lime's highly-anticipated new album, Enter The Night, is expected to drop in February 2011.

LISTEN UP :: Lose Yourself in Sound.


As I walked away from the wreckage, bloodied and torn, I felt free and unrestrained. Every problem and worry, every cruel clawing castigation was buried beneath the steel wire frame. Unclouded and autonomous - I was able to walk away from everything that burdened me. Broken and bruised, I was completely unconstrained for the first time. You were no longer there - now enshrined in a fragmented tomb - your contorted and calloused body. Nothing satisfied me more than the thought of complete independence - away from the invisible restraint you so gleefully wrapped around me. (unholy rhythms)

Purity Ring’s “Ungirthed” may be one of the most amazing and addictive tracks I have heard in a long, long time. The second "Ungirthed" started to creep in, I immediately started bopping my head to the - what seemed at first to be off - beat, turned up my speakers, took a sip of the piff, closed my eyes, and let my mind, body and soul become lost in the glitchy, topped with a lil bit of grime, pulsing, heaven-sent sounds that surrounded me.


LISTEN UP :: MLK Mixtape.

Montrey from EARMILK posted the following words and music, entitled "Dr. Martin Luther King Jr – We Remember," in honor of the historic leader and civil rights activist... 
Don’t worry; we aren’t getting all political or taking things to seriously here on the site. But I thought it’d be good to at least mention something about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr today. There may never be someone quite like him ever again if things keep going the way they are going. There’s not many preachers, politicians, or public speakers that you would say they are willing to die for what they believed in. Most are bought and paid for nowadays. So, I’m a big fan of MixTapeShow and 2 years ago; they created an audio version of Dr Martin Luthers King’s “The Drum Major Instinct” speech and put some good audio in the background. The speech was given on February 4th, 1968 and he was assassinated EXACTLY 2 months later. It can be a little eerie considering, in the speech, he mentions what should be said about him apon his passing. No one can give a speech quite like MLK could. He has so much more passion than people nowadays. Pay your respects and check out the speech below. 
The MLK JR. mixtape, available for download below, is amazing and if you have the time to spare, listen to it from start to finish. You won't be disappointed.
