I really can’t tell you how excited I was this morning when I saw the email blast from Mad Decent announcing the Major Lazer x La Roux = Lazerproof mixtape. We are huge fans of both camps and couldn’t agree more that this colab is a perfect match. The 14 track mixtape has been in such demand today that the Mad Decent website has been “experiencing technical difficulties.” You can grab it from their website, or head over to zshare for a direct link.

k, I have to apologize for being somewhat absent these last few weeks. I recently embarked on 3 months of travel and will be all over this great land through mid-March. The last few weeks were spent in Seattle which I will cover in a post very soon. More importantly I am working frantically with Kimmell to get together a few year end lists for you, including iPhone Apps of the Year and Noise of the Year.
While I slave away at the keyboard here in snowy Minneapolis, I wanted to share a lil gem of an institution known as BBC Radio One :: The Essential Mix. If ever you want all the benefits of Riterol while hitting the computer for hours at end with none of the hangover, the Essential Mix’s are a must have in your headphones. Hosted by Pete Tong, the weekly two hour show has been bringing some of the best DJ’s in the world to the airwaves of the UK and beyond since 1993.
You can visit the Radio One site to listen in, but I would recommend just going to the Er7 Radio website to listen to and download all the Essential Mixes for your lapdesk or iPhod.
And you MUST listen to Annie Mac’s show known as The Mash Up.
It is exceptionally entertaining and informative, highlighting some of the best new Tracks, Remixes, Mash-ups, Minimixes and Interviews from today’s most hyped Indietronica artists. Much love Annie, you are currently making my ears drip with the Diplo and Switch interview.
We are here to keep you connected with all things amazing and inspiring. The music we post is to help promote the artists we love most; if you feel the same, then support 'em. Go to a show, buy an album, tell your friends. This is about the never ending quest for the next best thing. This is our best day never...
