The rather prolific Brooklyn artist MeLo-X hits us yet again with a new project, this time in the format of a five-song EP called GOD: LoFi . Relying on outside producers as well as himself, expect to see acts like Phoenix, M-Phazes and Jesse Futerman to step up to the plate, too. And with a diverse list of producers, expect a little bit of everything on this in-and-out project. Including some more electronic-influenced tunes and some quick-hitting juke to match.

MeLo-X has the ability to remix music like none other. Whether he's re-constructing it to produce a whole new track or adding his own vocals MeLo makes every track truly his own. Handle it is no different. Originally a remix of Gotye's "Somebody I used to know" ft. kimbra produced by m-phazes, MeLo decides to take this track and completely transform it into cosmic private dancer music. Handle It tells the story of an encounter with a women who moves like she's from another planet.

For the third installment of 200 Words Best Of 2012 we take a look at the very best and most genius remixes of 2012, and there have been many. Too much to cover.

Like everything, all those remixes being online have an upside and a downside. Theres too much to listen to and its hard to find the best tracks.
