Jay-Z x Nicolas Jaar - Encore (Buzz-T Mash-Up)

Not really a fan of mash-up's, but when two songs have the same title and sound this good together, maybe sometimes it's just meant to be? Buzz-T did a sterling good job here, with my favourite Nicolas Jaar production and one of Jigga's most iconic singles. Vibez...

ES-K - Summer x Throwback 80

'Summer' and 'Throwback 80' are the two standout tracks from ES-K's latest LP 'Spontaneous Grooves: Episode 03', which is set to be released August 1st on Cold Busted. CB usually deal with Trip-Hop instrumentals, so it's nice to hear them bringing out a full Hip-Hop instrumental album, and a really sick one at that.

Ellie Goulding - Hanging On (feat. Tinie Tempah)

Ellie Goulding took to Soundcloud today to offer up this new free download featuring Tinie Tempah. Describing the song on twitter as 'the beginning of [a] new journey for [her]', the track definitely has a more electronic feel to it than the London based singer-songwriter's 2010 debut album 'Lights' and I can't help but wonder if the influence of current boyfriend Sonny Moore (aka. Skrillex) isn't partly responsible for this. Whatever the case, expect big things from this lady in the near future and check out the track after the jump.

Frank Ocean - Pink Matter (Feat. André 3000)

Featuring the legendary André 3000, here is the most highly anticipated track from Frank Ocean's debut album 'Channel Orange', which the R&B crooner decided to release a week early last night. Following everything that has happened over the past week, it only seemed right to give his fans something in return for their support, and what better present than dropping his album a week earlier than the orignal release date?! Many people believe R&B is fading or dying, but with artists like Frank Ocean around, R&B is going to be alive and well for many years to come. Beautiful album, cop HERE.
