The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love (Emperor Machine Remix Edit) - download here

If the Rapture (the apocalyptic event) had anything to do with The Rapture (the dance-rock disco-ballers), we'd be way psyched for Judgment Day. 'Cause then, when the earth opened up, it’d reveal burbling lakes of silver glitter and twisty slides and funk monsters bearing floppy guitars and platform boots. Clouds would hurl synth bolts at houses, and when struck, they'd morph into sax-filled, multi-hued moonbounce playgrounds. Think we've lost our marbles? Listen to Emperor Machine’s refit of “How Deep Is Your Love” and you'll see that maintaining composure is not an option. Get a seriously nutso fix digitally and in the flesh—either from DFA on September 6 or with tour dates happening right now.

jj - We Can't Stop (feat. Ne-Yo) - download here

Presented with little comment: jj's naturalistic, oh-so-Swedish chillpop swirled with Ne-Yo's southern R&B swag. "We Can't Stop" is thick, strange, and aqueous until three minutes in, when it briefly slips into a soft, top 40 jam before finally succumbing to a curious swamp of both. Overtly melodic, highly nonsensical, and a great start to your week.

Danny Brown - Die Like A Rockstar - download here

There must be something in Detroit’s water supply that breeds the most off-the-wall rappers for whom no-holds-barred is truly an understatement. Here's a prime example: Danny Brown, a recent Fool's Gold signee whose latest mixtape XXX is riddled with the type of amazingly deranged rap that would give mom a heart attack. The maniacal synth bass line on “Die Like A Rockstar,” is the perfect backdrop for Brown to dream up an imaginative concoction of substances that could help him die a truly rockstar death. Everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Brad Nowell and Heath Ledger get a shout out. Extra credit for throwing the word “gesundeith” into a rap song—on the first line, nonetheless.

Wale - 100 Hunnit (feat. Meek Mill) - download here

With a beat tailored to sweaty nightclub scenes, Wale and his Maybach Music Group cohort Meek Mill trade the mic and compete with massive levels of braggadocio on the bouncy "100 Hunnit." An outtake from the recording sessions for the crew's recent compilation album Self Made: Vol. 1, the lack of group leader Rick Ross allows both MCs a shot at the spotlight here. They spend it comparing their penchants for throwing dollar bills like footballs, buying houses for family members and "going Ike Turner" on certain female body parts. Wale sounds rejuvenated, but, like the recent smash "Tupac Back," Meek Mill continues to dazzle on his audacious verses.
