Amy Winehouse - F**k Me Pumps (MJ Cole Remix)

Yesterday we found out that Amy Winehouse had been found dead at her house in London. As I said on Twitter, it is shocking, but not surprising news, as you can only do so much for someone who doesn't want to help themselves. It is still a very sad loss for music - as a tribute, here is MJ Cole's smashing remix of my favourite Amy track. Rest In Peace, and all my best to the family.

Jay-Z & KanYe West - Watch The Throne (Documentary)

An exclusive behind the scenes look at the making of one of the most highly anticipated albums in years. Two geniuses at work. Directed, edited and photographed by Robert Lopuski.

Anthony Hamilton - You

Some unreleased music from Mr. Hamilton, produced by Jack Splash, which nobody seems to know when it's from or what it's for. Either way, it's amazing, and it hopefully means a new album is on the way. 2-Step.

Roy Ayers Project: Who Is Roy Ayers? (Trailer)

Trailer for the upcoming film/documentary about one of the all-time great recording artists. As is rightly stated in this trailer, Roy is one of the forerunners of the marriage between Jazz and Hip-Hop - if you don't know about Roy, then you need to get to know. Can't wait for this one.

Joss Stone - Drive All Night

Joss Stone has been in the news recently for an incident that was somewhat bizarre and disturbing to hear, but now she's going to be in the news for all the right reasons, as her fifth studio album is set to be released next week. Personally, the album isn't for me, but this song is pretty incredible. Pre-order your copy HERE.

Ben Westbeech - FREE Album Launch Gig

Next Thursday (28th July), The Loft on Kingsland Road plays host to Ben Westbeech's launch party for the upcoming album, There's More To Life Than This. The gig is free, so if you're in and around London then there is no excuse for you not to pay a visit between 7pm-Midnight and listen to one of my favourite albums of the year so far. You can download the flyer for the event HERE and read my review of the album HERE. Gutted I can't make it down; however, you will be able to catch the event on the Boiler Room if you're in the same situation as me.

Styles P - I Get High (Feat. Method Man & Redman) (Geteye Remix) x MED - Where I'm From (Feat. Aloe Blacc) (Oteest Remix)

My two favourite joints from a very sick remix tape courtesy of French beatmakers Geteye & Oteest. You can download from their Bandcamp, or HERE if it's still being gay.

WAREHOUSE PROJECT 2011

Never thought this day would come, but here it is, the end of the WHP @ Store Street. For the past 5 years it has been the heart of the Manchester music scene, taking over the the City for 12 weeks of the year and drawing in thousands of people every weekend from all over the World. Stunning line-ups, an incredible venue and a group of people who just adore their music has made for the most unique musical experience possible, and for me it has been the home of some of the best nights of my life. Anyway, earlier today the line-ups for the the 2011 calender were announced - I've selected a couple of my favourites below, but you can check the full list HERE. Hopefully see some of you there.

KanYe West & Jay-Z - Otis (Feat. Otis Redding)

Here is the brand new single from KanYe & Jay-Z's upcoming collaborative album, Watch The Throne, which is set to be released on August 1st. Unbelievable tune - this project is going to change Hip-Hop.

Pusha T - Trouble On My Mind (Feat. Tyler, The Creator)

A sick video for one of my favourite Hip-Hop tracks of 2011. Why couldn't Tyler have done more stuff like this on his album? Goblin hasn't been played since the day I was sent it. Anyway, Fear Of God 2: Let Us Pray is the way. Push.
