Stumbled across this today and it had been awhile for me. I thought I’d share this gem because like me, you probably haven’t heard it in quite some time and are due a re-listen/watch. For those who might be viewing this music video for the first time, all I can say is enjoy, and prepare to be watching it at least a few times. Let me know if I’m wrong, but I doubt I’ll be…it’s addicting.

The Notorious B.I.G ft. Ja Rule – Old Thing Back (Matoma Remix)
It’s probably pretty clear that I love Biggie, and I’m always down for a new spin on his work. This is such an interesting take compared to what I’ve seen though. The beat is great and it’s such a feel good song that despite the rhyming not quite fitting the song perfectly I’m willing to let it slide just because the song as a whole puts a smile on my face. Check it out, a nice summer remix, and grab it free by liking his facebook page.
Tove Lo – Habits (Oliver Nelson Remix)
A really funky pop/house track here from a guy I’ve come to respect immensely for his remixes. Oliver Nelson knocks another one out of the park with this one. Just wait for that bassline to kick in…
K.ONE – Same You (Feat. Brooke Duff)
A nice fun pop (hiphop) track from K.ONE in New Zealand. I don’t expect them to get the same attention as Lorde, but if they keep churning out feel good songs like this I’ll continue to be a fan. To be honest, I like this song more and more each time I hear it…
Disclosure – Latch (feat. Sam Smith)
Now that Sam Smith is getting some attention, especially in the US with his SNL appearance, I thought I throw out the first time that I heard about him: through this solid tune from Disclosure.
Hermitude – Hyper Paradise (Flume Remix)
This track was so big in Australia, I didn’t quite realize it didn’t totally make it over to the States. This is a GEM. Go forth, enjoy!
Diplo & GTA – Boy Oh Boy (TWRK Edit)
This isn’t my favorite song in the world. But if I was back dj’ing right now, I’d definitely throw this in at peak time. I just see this working really well as a club song.
Burn Revamp
I thought this song by Ellie Goulding was completely played-out for me. I was done hearing it on the radio, but here comes a remix from Gryffin that totally changes the vibe. Awesome remix, and I can listen to “Burn” once again.
SKRILLEX AND JAYZ – THE REASON I GOT 99 PROBLEMS
Another great mashup here. Seems so simple after you hear it, but Mistermike needs some credit for this gem. Enjoy!
THE VELDT – WHITE PANDA MIX
A fantastic mashup here. Bastille, Deadmau5 and Eric Prydz. The White Panda does an unbelievable job incorporating the vocals into this track. The original Bastille song isn’t quite so good anymore.
