Most recently featured on our top remixes of 2011 , R3K seems to have a serious knack for remixing strong female vocalitst with male rappers. First was the Florence/Kid Cudi marriage, and I just stumbled upon this other track featuring Lil’ Wayne and Imogen Heap. Sampling vocals from Lil’ Wayne’s “Swag Surfin” and transferring them on top of Heap’s “Just For Now,” the output is brimming with synthesized perfection ...

What do you get when you take three of the most talented Australian female singer/songwriters working today and put them together?  Why you get the new 'super-group' Seeker Lover Keeper and their debut self-titled album (out January 17th). The trio is comprised of Sarah Blasko , Holly Throsby , and Sally Seltmann (best known here as the co-writer of Feist 's smash hit "1234"). The vocal harmonies are definitely the focal point of the album.  They are simply haunting on the opening track "Bring Me Back".  It's a result of the hushed tones that are so often employed on the ...

1.  Clams Casino - All I Need / I'm God from Instrumental Mixtape ( Type ) Even if both these beats technically came out last year beneath Soulja Boy and Lil' B raps respectively, it wasn't until about half way through this year that the full mountainous weight of these instrumentals really hit me. And just out of Imogen Heap samples, I mean shit!  2.  James Ferraro - Earth Minutes from Far Side Virtual ( Hippos In Tanks ) Ferraro's sounds have always been heavily responsive to mainstream of the now and what he does with it is always amazing in terms of quality ...

Jhameel writes pop songs out of the elements – catchy as hell melodies and straightforward lyrics. The boy can sing, and he’s perfect for indulging your indie holiday get-down spirit. He also has an instinct that pairs the pop formula with a more sophisticated, soulful layer gleaned (at times borrowed) from masters like Michael Jackson and Prince.  Whatever mood strikes, there’s a Jhameel song that can deliver. These are all posted on Soundcloud for download, along with LP The Human Condition ...

It's rarely the case that a hip-hop producer can single-handedly carry an emcee through a track. But such is the case with New Jersey's Mike Volpe, better known by his stage name Clams Casino , who first turned heads after his collaborations with Soulja Boy and Lil B began making rounds on the Internet. With a keen sense for smooth vocal samples, Clams Casino creates dreamy, ethereal soundscapes that swallow you up and carry you away before the first crash or hi-hat even drops. And the best part of it all? His music works with or without an emcee ...
