It's raining in Brooklyn. And when it rains, it pooouuurs... remixes! Ahhhhh! A bakers dozen of the hottest, freshest, gooeyest (sp?), finger-lickinest good remixes to hit my inbox in the past week. Chiddy Bang - Truth (Ft. Passion Pit's "Better Things") / We are big Chiddy Bang fans over here at TBE but their last effort was lackluster at best and it's awesome to see them return to mic-shredding form on this killer rework of Passion Pit. Miike Snow [...]

( fffound ) This is not blogging. Sorry again for not being on the up and up with music. Last week I worked 70 hours on Monopoly and this weekend I drove to/ from NYC to help a friend move into Brokelyn. For real, where's the glory in saying you're from Brooklyn? No where. Anyway, I was able to sift through submissions and I've narrowed them down to what you see below. Andreas Tilliander + New Moscow - Caught in a Riot (Kite Remix) (darker) Andreas Tilliander + New Moscow - [...]

A couple of weeks ago, Oliver did a Top 10 Nostalgic Hip Hop albums , it gave me the idea to do an R&B list. Tonight, he brings the part back to the 80s, I'll take on the 90s then. I usually write about electronica/rock, but I started my listening career in R&B and 80s Pop, Hip-Hop, then started venturing out into other genres as I got older. And now, everything kinda mixes into each other. You have R&B that borrows from Electronica, Hip-Hop that takes from Rock, and vice-versa. A lot of people [...]

Throughout it's 35-year history, Saturday Night Live has always been a purveyor of the up-and-coming talents in the music world.

Just this year the show hosted musical guests that ranged from enormous mega-stars (Kanye West) to enormous French mega-stars (Phoenix) looking to get big in the here in the States, not to mention appearances by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, [...]

i could really do with another summer of 1992. gcse exams finished early, by june i had three months in which to do exactly nothing. so, i sunbathed, wandered around with my friends and watched mtv. a lot. having cable was still a novelty, and watching a channel broadcast from another continent was fun. the vjs spoke in broken english, the adverts were a long way from aquafresh and hovis. i hold mtv europe squarely responsible for the success of acts such as culture beat and ace of base. there were other, weirder [...]

Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins appears to be riding under the radar on NBC's hit reality series ' Celebrity Apprentice ,' but the TLC vocalist confessed to me that everything you see on television doesn't necessarily reflect what actually transpired on the show. The 38-year-old singer, who is now dating NFL linebacker Takeo Spikes, also talked about a possible TLC movie, why girl groups are dysfunctional and why she hated her performance with Alicia Keys at the BET Awards in 2008. T-Boz, [...]
Oh Colin Munroe. How did you end up surrounded by the platinum ghosts of pop albums past? We may never know the answer to that question (or we may never tell you the answer for fear of sounding like music business hacks with too much inside information). But we do know that A) his album will be better than the last TLC record and B) he's hosting SubT this week. Don't sleep!

Several of our readers requested that we post about Lot 80 , so here we to give you a taste. Hailing from Florida, Lot 80 are new and fresh on the Hip-Hop and R&B scene.

2008 was not only a year of comebacks but a year when, contrary to the declining viability of the music industry as a means by which to make an above average living, new artists emerged and those waiting in the wings made their debut. and nkotb have been gone so long they count as a new act in my book. these are my favourites of 2008. download 2008 newcomers candy hill - head gone don't know much about [...]

Dizzee was caught over the weekend working on his swing . Rather than the conventional baseball or softball, he instead chose to hit a car. Dizzee Rascal - Dream Last week, some hopeless idiot said this to me: "The economy isn't affecting you, is it?" Instead of asking what planet he's on, I distracted him with a shiny nickel. EVERYONE is somehow feeling the pinch these days, and celebs (from A-list to Z) aren't immune either. [...]
