Vampire Weekend – The Kids Don’t Stand A Chance (Miike Snow Remix) by aggressivechimp
Get’s a little hard for me towards the end, but a cool intro.

Cordova – Paradigm by U-Tern
Here’s a track that U-Tern said he and his friends (AJK and Roxy) made a year ago but never got around to releasing. A slice of dreamy disco pop.

FLWRPT & THE CASUAL PRESENTS…RELATIONSHIP RAPS Compilation
Words by: Devin “PAN” Barrett of “The Casual”
Many a relationship has been lost to the temptations of summertime. With the coming of this season and its sun rays, clothing becomes optional, sexuality is in abundance, and extended daylight leads to balmy nightlife, often at the expense of a long-term love. On the flipside, summertime is also when love connections are made. Nothing says summer like a humid day, and locking eyes with your dewy skinned soulmate for the first time, even if it only lasts for a season…or a night.
With this theme in mind, and with summertime officially upon us, Flwrpt & The Casual presents…RELATIONSHIP RAPS. This mix is a collection of ’90s hip-hop tracks, some obscure some familiar, all dealing in some way with the relationships between women and men. With each song, we tried to capture a distinct ’90s sound and essence, that somehow never crossed into mainstream consciousness, but played a large role in crafting the energy of the era.
We hope you enjoy…and stay tuned for further collaborations from Flwrpt and The Casual…

Bape Store New York Closing
When I first heard while in New York early last year that the Bape store was closing on Greene St in Soho. I thought it can’t be serious. I know Bape has lost a lot of it’s original street credibility over the last few years, but I still thought there was a huge following with the continued support of some of the biggest international music artists around ie. Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Lil’ Wayne just to name a few.
But I was wrong.
It’s been announced that the store will be closing at the end of the month. This may not come as a surprise to some after hearing the majority of the company was sold to the owner of I.T. for only a few million. Bape is now going through some drastic changes. I’ve always been a fan of the brand and Nigo even though I don’t wear as much as I used to. I appreciate his business model and hope this isn’t the end. Good luck!
Check out Kid Cudi’s performance at the store.

WUGAZI ‘13 Chambers’ Album
Wugazi • 13 Chambers by WUGAZI
A year’s worth of cutting up every imaginable Fugazi record and trying out every Wu-Tang acapella they could get their hands on, resulted in Wugazi: 13 Chambers (a must listen for anyone who even looked at a skateboard in the 90’s).
