[Download] Angel Haze - 'Classick' (Mixtape) x "New York" (King Krule Rework)

It's fair to say Angel Haze has been making waves across the internet in recent months and she's showing no signs of slowing down and has just dropped a brand new mixtape titled Classick which you pick up a copy below. The tape sees her stepping up and reworking tracks by the likes of Eminem, Jay-Z and one I saw she was pretty nervous about on twitter, Lauryn Hill.

As well as the mixtape, King Krule has offered up a nice rework of her track "New York". He too is definitely gaining momentum at the moment. In recent months we've got to enjoy two new tracks from him in the shape of "Octopus" and "Rock Bottom", both raw yet very much repeat worthy. For his latest escapade he's taken on Angel Haze's "New York" and slowed it down a little giving it a different yet equally intriguing listen. Check it out below.

[Listen] Rhye - "The Fall" (Maurice Fulton Alt Remix)

We got to enjoy the thought provoking video for Rhye's track "The Fall" a few weeks back and it's been getting some heavy play on my end. Today though we can add another version into the mix of plays as Maurice Fulton has offered up an alternative remix turning the chilled out track into a funky red bull drinking jaunt that's absolutely perfect for these dark mornings in the city. Check it out below and look out for The Fall EP which is set to drop on November 12th via Innovative Leisure / Polydor.

[Listen] LULS - "Young" (Spector Remix)

The other day I heard an interesting remix of LULS' track "Young" from J£ZUS MILLION and then today another has appeared online. This time it's the UK boys Spector giving it the rework treatment and you can check it out below. Big beats and a definitely dance worthy song for so early in the week, don't you think?

LULS are also set to perform some dates in the coming weeks around the county. The single was released on ParadYse Records along with "Swing Low" just yesterday.

[SKOA Premiere] Alan Wilkis - "Stay Forever feat. Paul Holmes (Vasili Gavre Remix)"

SKOA favorite Alan Wilkis was gracious enough to think of us to premiere NYC producer Vasili Gavre's remix of the third installment from his PRINTS series, "Stay Forever" which features vocals from Paul Holmes, who you may know from his projects The Tells or Adrienne Drake. If you have already been enjoying this track as much as we have, this reworked nugget from Gavre is a surefire way to keep you on your PRINTS love fest while we all anxiously for the next track to drop. The change up to the phrasing on the vocals will initially catch you off guard, but it encourages your ears to listen in different corners of the original that you hadn't thought to appreciate before, which is something I always love about good remixes. If you enjoyed Gavre's remix as much as I did, you should check out the band he's in called Americans In Paris. As far as what's next for the PRINTS  series, Wilkis told us that in the coming weeks that he'll be shooting a music video for "Stay Forever", so be on the lookout for that soon.

In other Wilkis-related news, he's currently wrapped up a new remix for The Hood Internet's new album and has started working on a project with Dan Armbruster of Joywave. According to Wilkis, "[The project is] still in the early stages there, but we're psyched about it!" As you can probably guess, when there are updates of any of the aforementioned news items you will be able to learn more right here.

Enjoy the "Stay Forever" remix by Vasili Gavre as well as the original and the additional remix of the song done by You & The Night & The Music in the player below. Make sure to grab any and all tracks that you like for the actual retail price of $FREE.99!
