[Watch] Mr. Little Jeans - "Runaway" (Fool's Gold Remix)
Fool's Gold have reworked Mr. Little Jeans' track "Runaway" turning the already great track into a more up-tempo number. The Fool's Gold gang add bigger beats and with the use of layered drums the original vocals take a back seat, echoing their way through the mix with the results being a winning combo. A great little pick me up for your Thursday afternoon. Check it out below.
[Watch] Fool's Gold - "Wild Window" (Video)
Fool's Gold unleash their new visuals for the track "Wild Window" and they're colourful and fun. Just what I expected. More bright lights and hand claps than you could shake a rather large stick at. The track features on the band's album Leave No Trace which is out now if you want to go pick it up.

[News] SiriusXM, A-Trak Team Up For A-Trak Presents: Fools Gold Radio
The prolific DJ A-Trak is teaming up with SiriusXM to bring the best in electronic music on Electric Area, channel 52. A-Trak Presents: Fool's Gold Radio launches on July 18th at 10:00 pm EST and will air the third Monday of every month. This represents yet another outlet for A-Trak, the incessantly touring turntablist, producer and label head who has already established himself as the leading figure in electronic music's North American takeover.
"My mission with my radio show is to bring DJ skills to the forefront. You won't hear any other DJ play the way I'm playing on this radio station. I come from a hip hop background, cutting, scratching, juggling, and I brought that to electronic music. With Fool's Gold we've broken artists and we've broken down the boundaries between electro and hip hop. I'm thrilled and honored to bring that to SiriusXM." - A-Trak

[Watch] Holy Ghost! - "Wait And See" (Video)
The video for Holy Ghost!'s single, "Wait And See" has a very special twist to this standard type of music video where you follow the band around doing things. As you may be able to tell, those guys in the video aren't Alex Frankel and Nick Millhiser. They're actually their DADS!! I just love this. Such supportive dads!
Also, every dad should have Fools Gold shirt, am I right? I figured out your Father's Day gift. You're welcome.
Holy Ghost's self-titled album is now available all over the place. Be sure to pick it up.
[Watch] Kanye Surprises Pitchfork's Offline Festival During Fool's Gold Performance
Okay, I think this will be the last Kanye post for the weekend but in all honesty NYC i'm pretty Jealous. Not only do you have the CMJ & Offline festivals going on right now, you get Daft Punk making a surprise appearance during Phoenix's set at Madison Square Garden and then you get GZA and Kanye West to appear during the Fools Gold 3rd Year Anniversary set? Come on! Don't you think thats a bit overkill for a music fan, let alone the unfortunate ones that can't be there. You're lucky I still love you NYC. Ha.
Alright, enough of that. Lets get back to the topic, last night during Fool's Gold Records 3rd Anniversary celebration at Pitchfork's Offline festival, heavy hitter Kanye West swung by right after his Runaway film premiere at MTV and made a special guest appearance during CyHi Da Prynce's performance and they performed the G.O.O.D Friday track "So Appalled." However, after that Kanye took over to give fans a short preview of whats to come performing short versions of his hits, "Power", "Monster", "Devil In A New Dress" and "Runaway". Check out the video of "So Appalled" above and then "Power", "Monster" & "Devil In A New Dress" after the jump. Shouts to 1971Makavelliott for the visuals.
