It’s Friday, and we’re back with another installment of our regular roundup of downloadable MP3 goodness from around the web. This week there’s a track from proud 4AD signees Purity Ring, along with new work from Sun Kil Moon, LA Vampires, and the duo formerly known as Hype Williams. There's also an entire album from D'Eon, a fascinating John Cale remix, yet another cover of "Some Velvet Morning," and plenty more. In other words, there’s plenty of interesting sounds awaiting you after the jump, and since they won’t cost a penny or land you an RIAA lawsuit, as your attorneys [...]

Canadian hip-hop is about to get a little realer. Rollie Pemberton aka Cadence Weapon dropped "Conditioning" in advance of his new album Hope in Dirt City (out on May 29th on Upper Class Recordings) and it's a beast, pairing a lazy flow with a big beat and a surprisingly impassioned chorus. When I caught CW on tour years ago, his DJ had been held at the border (lol Amurrica) so he was forced to periodically observe "This is the part where my DJ would cut" and leap into the crowd to high five everyone. Don't miss a chance to high [...]
Not too long ago Grimes was interviewed by fellow Canadian, Nardwuar, where she stated, "Bulldogs, they give me power." It wasn't odd or anything. Thing is, she makes fantastic music-the newest gem being a remix of Cadence Weapon 's "Conditioning". I don't care where she's harnessing her "power" as long as she continues crafting joints like this. This remix features her top register vocals on a dialed down production. She lets the Canuck rapper kill his bars and ultimately creates a crafty electronic jam. If you're looking for more punch be on the lookout for Cadence Weapon's [...]

Grimes has teamed up with fellow Canadian Cadence Weapon to remix 'Conditioning' - returning the favour of the rapper using the instrumental of 'Eight' on his recent track, '88'. The guts of the track have been ripped out and replaced with Grimes' wailing, and only until we hit the 2:46 mark that things really start to get interesting. Have a listen below and look out for Cadence Weapon's forthcoming album Hope In Dirt City , which is released on May 29th via Upper Class Recordings. [ Fact ]

A finales de febrero en medio de la fiebre del lanzamiento del mas reciente album de Grimes les puse por aqui un track que me resulto sumamente interesante ya que un tipo que se hace llamar Cadence Weapon decidio tomar uno de los cortes de " Visions " para samplear una de sus mas recientes creaciones la cual llevaba por titulo simple y sencillamente " 88 ". Bueno, tiempo despues de que ocurriera todo esto parece que Claire Boucher decidio devolverle el favor en grande al hacer este excelente remix de uno de los tracks que [...]

I got hip-hop bouncin' in my veins and whenever I stumble upon a new beat that's juicy enough for my old school-spoiled ears, I got to bring it! So here it is, get your undeserved ears on Cadence Weapon 's brilliant new track " Conditioning ".

On May 29 Cadence Weapon returns with his third full-length Hope In Dirt City and with [...]
