The Beatles – Don’t Let Me Down (Gramatik Remix): Awesome Classic Rock/Hip-Hop/Electro

“So, back in 2006 when I was still rapping(in Slovene), I sampled ”Don’t Let Me Down” by The Beatles and later on recorded lyrics over it. The beat was very simple, adapted for rap vocals so I decided to revisit it, remove my raps and add a bunch of other live instruments, synths and samples to it, so you guys can enjoy it in instrumental form without it being boring. It’s a downtempo hip-hop flavored banger that continues the evolution of collage sampling combined with live instrumentation and synthesis. Hope you guys like it.”

Well that about sums it up, enjoy this awesome little throwback banger from the one and only Gramatik!

The Melker Project – Say Hello Vs. Because (Jay-Z v The Beatles): Unique Mashup

I’ve really been lacking on the mashup posts in the last couple of weeks, I guess nothing has really caught my ear until this little gem. I know very little about The Melker Project, but I think his description about sums this one up:

When you find a rare Beatles acappella you are morally obligated to use it. “Because” is an incredible song – 3 voices, recorded 3 times to create a 9 part harmony. “Say Hello” is also amazing. Perhaps my favorite track from “American Gangster.” Throw in a little T-Pain and you have a recipe for amazing.

Couldn’t have summarized it much better, so just kick back and enjoy a sunny afternoon.
