To drive our love of Dilla home, here's a banging remix of the Dilla produced "Rock the Boat" from Aaliyah. This remix was produced by another Detroit music crusher - Shigeto. Aaliyah and Dilla died far too young. RIP. Rock the Boat - Aaliyah - Shigeto Remix - Right Click/Save Link As to Download.
Brooklyn-based Olga Bell has recently covered Aaliyah's classic song "Are You That Somebody" & it's as if she has resurrected the sadly-demised R&B star and turned her into a robot… this jam is a fantastic homage to the original piece. The only thing missing is the sample of a baby crying in the beats… but that'd be too obvious wouldn't it? Happy Hump Day followers & contributors!
Aaliyah // Rock the Boat // Shigeto Remix // February 7th 2012 // FREE DOWNLOAD I was super inspired from all the love in the air for Jay Dee's Birthday today. Got me thinking about what an inspiration Detroit music is. Then got me thinking about other Detroit artists. Then got me thinking about Aaliyah, another amazing talent that we lost way to soon. So I made this. Inspired by Aaliyah, Jay Dee and Detroit. RIP AALIYAH - RIP JAY DEE [...]
Do you ever wish your life played out the way a song feels? My new 'life song' is this Shigeto remix of 'Rock The Boat' by the late, great Aaliyah. The original was great anyway, but Shigeto has added a layer of sexiness even Timbaland would approve of. "I was super inspired from all the love in the air for Jay Dee's Birthday today.

This certainly has been a good little Tuesday for some new remixes. Shigeto puts his spin on a classic Aaliyah tune. PS If you can tell me which Weeknd song that samples this track, I'll give you some shampoo or something. Follow me @OceanPdestrians . Aaliyah_Rock the Boat_ Shigeto Remix by SHIGETO
It's a little more than an honor to have Gavin Handley from Jus Like Music contribute to our Substitute Teachers series. The label started out as a blog, and eventually blossomed into a roster of forward thinking artists who are currently pushing the boundaries of what electronic music can be. He also co-hosts a fantastic radio show on NTS that showcases his phenomenal taste in music. This mix consists entirely of Jus Like Music releases, and all of these artists have material that you must [...]
It might be a bit early to call Brooke Taylor the next Mary J. Blige or Chaka Khan but one could begin there when describing Taylor's soulful sound. A proud LA-born and bred artist, Taylor has the pipes to impress the likes of Steve Harvey , DJ Felli Fell of LA's Power 106 FM as well as Big Boy of the popular LA radio show "Big Boy and the Neighborhood". Having caught the attention of audience members, radio DJs and artists alike, Taylor's music has traveled the world and is steadily adding to the repertoire of talented [...]

Continua a farsi strada la giovane Azealia Banks . Segnalata dal Guardian , inclusa nell' elenco dell'NME tra i cinquanta personaggi più 'cool' del 2011 , inserita tra i quindici candidati del BBC Sound of 2012 : sembra sia impossibile ignorarla quest'anno. Il suo electro-pop unito a un'attitudine molto street, di matrice hip-hop soul, sta convincendo quasi chiunque. Quale momento migliore per fare uscire un nuovo singolo? Si intitola "NEEDSUMLUV" (tutto rigorosamente maiuscolo) ed è prodotto da Machinedrum che lo ha incluso nel suo prossimo EP "SXLND" e ha realizzato la base su [...]
The unstoppable Azealia Banks (recently confirmed to join the line-up of this year's Coachella ) makes some serious R&B-Girl moves on her latest insta-banger "NEEDSUMLUV", a contagious force of all-sung, forward-thinking urban-pop (based around the beat of producer Machinedrum 's Aaliyah-sampling "SXLND" ) in which she takes on the role of the "other woman" with the goal set on eventually becoming the "main woman". "You ain't in love with her/ But she still lives in your heart/ But you be in my apartment, tearin me apart...", naughtily sings Banks, lacing the [...]
In honour of Aaliyah's 33rd birthday I thought I'd post an amazing remix of her 1998 Grammy-nominated hit 'Are You That Somebody?' perfectly put together last year by Montreal production duo Azamat B and Sinjin Hawke of ITFW. The duo remixed four of her other which they're offering for free here . 'Are You That Somebody?' (ITFW Remix) - Aaliyah
Someone notify Merriam-Webster — pop stars have rebelled, four letters is too many, and "love" will now be spelled "l-u-v." At least, that's the consensus we're getting judging from recent songs like Madonna's "Gimme All Your Luvin" and now Azealia Banks' new track "Needsumluv," which not only takes an abbreviated approach to spelling but also does away with the space bar entirely. "Needsumluv" also samples Aaliyah's "One In A Million," possibly in honor of her birthday — which is today! The fallen singer would have been 33 today. Pay tribute to Aaliyah by listening to Azealia Banks' latest [...]
Azealia Banks was chosen, by the BBC, as one of the major faces to watch for in 2012 and there's no doubt the buzz around her is ever expanding. But of course, buzz isn't everything and one bad live performance on SNL could hurt almost any new artist. But, so far, Azealia hasnt made any such mistakes. Now she has just dropped a track called "NEEDSUMLUV" with production from internet sensation and glitch master, Machinedrum, who samples the late Aaliyah. Enjoy. Download: Azealia Banks - NEEDSUMLUV (SXLND)(Prod. Machinedrum)

Reworking and sampling '00s r&b hits into abstract electronic loops is the trend du jour in the postdubstep world nowadays. British bedroom producer Memotone is the latest to join the bandwagon, by recontextualizing Aaliyah 's Timbaland-produced stone cold classic "Try Again" into a beat-heavy, cowbell-adorned number, while still retaining some of the hip-hop flavor. And it's surprisingly replayable. The chipmunk pitch shifts are expected, but the drumwork here is really impressive. It couldn't be released at a better time, as today would have been her 33rd birthday. Sometimes I do wonder how different the R&B [...]
