The first single 'GAZZILLION-EAR' from DOOM's album BORN LIKE THIS. will be available to download from next week. It includes a bonus beat produced by DOOM and remixes from Thom Yorke, Dr Who Dat? and Jneiro Jarel / Dave Sitek. Beatport exclusive version matches the 12" vinyl (out January 2010) and also includes instrumentals, acappellas, and DJ friendly Villainous scratch samples...
Sign up to the DOOM / Lex mailing list and we'll send you an exclusive MADVILLAINZ remix not included on either format: Check the video above for a preview... and click HERE for the free MP3.
Now this isn't a new concept, if you cast your brains back to 2004
you'll surely recall the hype that surrounded Dangermouses' project
which combined the Jay Z accapella's from The Black Album and a
series of samples from The White Album by The Beatles to create
The Grey Album. This was higly acclaimed at the time and has since become
a kind of cult collectors item, and I've seen them go for mundo mundo bucks on ebay!
Must admit I wasn't really feeling that, it was no doubt a good notion but
I like my hip hop with a bit more FUNK than Dangermouse managed to
wring from his sample base. And since he's done that we've had Jaydiohead
Sinatra vs. Biggie, Hendrix vs. Biggie and God knows how many others I
haven't even noticed spamming up the internets.
Anyway so being a Wu Connaisseur I kind of felt like I had to download this one
just in case it wasn't totally shit. Not listened yet and I'm a bit anxious to be honest...

Hiya,
Here's a quick minimix I threw together a couple of days ago
for the Thump Events guys.
A few mistakes here and there but don't worry about them...
Here's a little mix I recorded in the Monument this sunday just gone. I took the opportunity to dig a little deeper in my collection and pulled out some tunes I used to batter back in the dark old days of the early 00's.
Shaolin Drunken Monk - Drum n Bass Mix - 16th August 2009
Jovi Rockwell has been on the scene in JA since 2005/2006 sorta time. I think this tune originally dropped in '07 but i only got wind of it in recent months. This tune is funkin bad, just what I like, although the weather would do well to keep its end up, as this needs serving up with a large mojito and a sun hat. Check out her track on the new Major Lazer LP - 'Guns Don't Kill People, Lazers Do' and watch out for Ms. Rockwell blowing up big in 2009!
It's been a while since I've come across some dope new hip hop, but in the last few weeks there have been some serious tunes dropping.
First up let's see what Preemo has been up to recently, this is from the new Blaq Poet LP - The Blaqprint, and it's a banger, straight in your face I think Westwood might say. Anyway it's fucking bad - bow down to Premier's beats as he's still the undisputed king!
Blaq Poet - Rap Addiction
Next up is this Mos Def tune i've been playing on loop since i got it yesterday. The beats is dangerous and I can't stop listening to it. Also features Slick Rick which is a good look. As I only came across this yesterday I got no idea when its coming out or on what at the moment... Comment if you know.... Mos Def ft. Slick Rick - Auditorium
Now if you haven't heard of DJ JS-1 out the Rocksteady crew then go google that name and find some of his mixtapes. This guy is ridiculous on the ones and twos and has laid down some serious sets which are well worth checking out. This is taken from his new LP 'No Sell Out', he produced all the tracks and has a plethora of heavyweight mc's dropping bars for him. This cut features NY legends OC out of Diggin In The Crates and Pharoahe Monche. Heavy. DJ JS-1 ft. O.C. & Pharoahe Monche - Ridiculous
And finally here's another producer who I been diggin for a couple of years now. I first caught wind of him when he dropped his Port Authority LP back in 2007, which had some dope assed tunes up on it. He's been working with an mc called Torae who I don't know much about, maybe he's Canadian like Mr Polo. Anyway check them out, they do good tings yah. This cut also features L'il Fame outta M.O.P. representing Brownsville and that guy with the ridiculouly deep voice is our man Rock who you may remember from the Boot Camp Clik an Heltah Skeltah. Marco Polo & Torae ft. Rock & L'il Fame - Smoke
