[Listen] Justice - "On'n'On" (Rick Rubin Remix)
While Rick Rubin is usually taking on the producer role, with the most recent case being his production role on The Avett Brothers' upcoming album, this time around, the production mastermind has assumed the role of remixer. Taking on Justice's upcoming single "On'n'On," Rubin has given the song much more natural instrumentation, all the while keeping the original sound and feel of the track in tact. The song will serve as the b-side to the single when it is digitally released on January 30th, so give it a listen below via Stereogum.
[Listen] Clock Opera - "Once And For All" (Andew Weatherall Remix)
Clock Opera released the heart wrenching video for their latest track "Once and for All" at the start of the year and now as January draws to a close and we're somehow already 1/12th of the way through the year, Andrew Weatherall offers up his rework of the track. See what you make of his electronic remix below and get excited for Clock Opera's debut LP. I for one cannot wait to spin it.

[Listen] Chiddy Bang - "Ray Charles" (Skeet Skeet Moombahton Remix)
Trying to not dance along to Chiddy Bang's "Ray Charles" was a task in itself but add into that equation a moombathon remix from Skeet Skeet. It adds another level of bass that kind of takes control of your extremities and shakes what your Momma gave ya. First a wiggle, then a hop, followed by and all out dance along.
A nice variation to the original and a great Tuesday evening boogie. While you're here if you didn't see the rather entertaining video from the pair for the track, make the jump over here to watch it.
