Junclassic & Wunderkind - Summertime (Feat Mr. Beazt)

Now this right here, this is exciting. Released today on his Bandcamp, 'Summertime' is one of my favourite tracks from NYC rapper Junclassic's new collaborative album with German producer Wunderkind. The track features the relatively unknown Mr. Beazt on the hook/chorus, and is one of the best Hip-Hop tracks of the year so far, from one of (if not THE) best Hip-Hop albums of the year. And you know what the best thing about it is? It's free. I'd happily pay to have this album on vinyl. Get your copy HERE.

Cassius - I Love You So (Feature Cuts Remix)

Houston-based producer Feature Cuts adds some heavy bass and a whole new melody to the 2010 hit single from Cassius. Although the original was released over two years ago, Mr. Cuts couldn't get the track out of his head after his set at SXSW, so thought it was only right to put his own twist on the anthemic track, which still sounds as fresh now, as it did back then. Free download below.
