rep where ya from

Hey kiddies! [adult swim], aka the best thing to come out of atlanta since outkast, is giving you a free mixtape! The only catch is that it's awesome. The concept is hot atlanta rappers being remixed by even hotter indie stars such as HEALTH, Memory tapes, Salem, Mad decent... you get the pictura.

Get at it, here.

today is now - cuatro

So we meet again. I've giving you two mixes in one day!?! Que rico. I didn't have a theme in mind for this week, but it appears that all but one are remixes, so... Remix theme! This semana there's a not-so-nuevo track from Miike Snow (spotted on GG this week), Toro y Moi remixes his buddy, Washed Out (!), Memory Tapes does an awesome version of Grum's Heartbeats, and remixes of Health and Au revoir simone (previously posted). This may be the last acceptable time to post about this summer dream team seeing that fall is upon us...

Miike Snow - Silvia

Au revoir simone - Another likely story (Neon indian remix)

Washed Out - Feel it all around (Toro y moi remix)

Grum - Heartbeats (Memory tapes version)

HEALTH - Before tigers (CFCF remix)

today is now - tres

I know I skipped a week in my 'today is now' mix series, so you can get off my back, ok? I was off galavanting in the wilds of Virginia getting in touch with my orígenes. Where do you factor into all of this? Well, lucky for you I made an insanely large playlist to listen on the 7 hora drive, and these are some that stood out. You can thank my tape player for the last one.

James Yuill - This sweet love (Prins Thomas sneaky edit)

Yuksek - So far away form the sea

Metronomy - The 3rd

HEALTH - We are water

Billy Idol - Rebel Yell

too much of a good cosa

So, it appears that while I was away a ton of awesome shit happened. Everyone is partying like its 1964 with all this Beatles hype (which I don't have a problem with, btdubbs), HEALTH has a new video for their awesome 'Die slow' (see above), the Ratatat/MGMT/Kid Cudi collaboration has surfaced, Neon Indian remixed Au Revoir Simone(!), and there's a teaser for new Golden Filter material. Lurvin' it. Maybe I should take breaks more often? (Don't answer that)

Kid Cudi - Pursuit of happiness (Nightmare)

Au revoir simone - Another likely story (Neon Indian remix)
