Damon Sheeley of The Bear and The Sea had released a couple of months ago his remix of Common's "I Used to Lover H.E.R." with the intention of slowly creating and releasing a handful of selected remixes as a FREE release. It was a tribute to the hip hop world through his hazy instrumentals that give a filter feel to his tracks. So here it is thanks to Nueva Forma the new EP Everything is Everything. Download here for FREE or stream it below!

Tycho is due to have his new album Dive released on November 15th through Ghostly. So last month he released a free download of his single "Hours". Now Teen Daze has released a FREE download of their enjoyable remix of "Hours". You can download Teen Daze Remix here.
My buddy was in town last weekend and while he was here we decided to throw together a dubstep mix. It was a one time run through so there maybe some mistakes but there is no mistaking that this mix is raw and dirty. My friend DJ Indigenous who started up his Unit2Productions blog also has it on his site. So if you want more mixes then head on over to his site. In the mean time take a step into this Dubstep!
I was pretty excited about finding .default magazine this morning. It is an online magazine that focuses on design, art, culture, fashion and music. It brings together artists from different fields and showcases there skills. Currently, they are up to issue 10 and .default magazine started up back in June of 2010. I would highly recommend checking it out. It has a smooth interfaces that gives reading an online magazine a fresh feel. If you don't believe me check it out for yourself.
Twitter sometimes you help me find some pretty awesome stuff. Like the frontman of Fleet Foxes releasing a FREE three song EP. It definitely was a treat seeing how Robin Pecknold band will be releasing a new album in May called, Helplessness Blues. So providing these three new songs I think it will hold me off till the new album comes out.
Pecknold who recently recorded this three song solo in Los Angeles, gives us a little explanation: "One is a duet with my friend Ed Droste from the amazing band Grizzly Bear, one is just a new solo jam, and one is a cover." The cover is of "Where Is My Wild Rose", a song from the New Zealand folk singer Chris Thompson. The Droste team-up is called "I'm Losing Myself" and features some haunted, feathery harmonies. And the new solo song is called "Derwentwater Stones". You can download the EP here.
Just a heads up this EP is quite mellow with an acoustic stripped down feel to them. Pecknold also want to add that, "These aren't Fleet Foxes songs, but I didn't know where else to disseminate it". So everyone Enjoy!
Recently, I found producer Hard Mix on Myspace and immediately became a fan after hearing his track "Memories" which I used in my Playlist-23 mix. His style to me is like chillwave-pop with some interesting use of backward vocals and samples with his synthesized-laden jams.
Yesterday, I was made aware by Dovecote Records that Hard Mix was generously giving away his new Defaults LP. In order to get yourself a copy you have to become a fan of Hard Mix on Facebook first, which you can do on Dovecote blog post. After that, a box will appear and bam! You will have some new music to fill your ears.
I personally have been jamming out to this album since yesterday. It's basically been on repeat and I'm still enjoying it while I type up this post. So show support and get your copy today! I also added a video below that gives you a little insight into who Hard Mix is.
