The champions of mashups have officially thrown their hat in the ring of production with this full length debut.  Earlier this year we had tastes of this, but now we finally have the full album.  The 14-track affair, commissioned by Mishka, features remixes of Foster The People, The Rosebuds, DVAS, and guest vocals from friends like Aesop Rock, Freddie Gibbs, GZA, and more.  If you ever questioned if this Chicago duo is a one-trick pony, you have your answer…No!  Check out some of our favorite tracks below.  Also check out THIS behind the scenes video about the cover.  It’s…interesting.  Head HERE to download the whole thing for free.

One of our favorite mashup duos The Hood Internet are back, but this time with a non-mashup.  The Chicago boys are supposedly in the works of releasing a record of original material and in the meantime decided to assemble a stellar little group for this cover of The xx’s “VCR”.  Featuring Elizabeth Harper (Class Actress) on the chorus and Freddie Gibbs and Telli (Ninjasonik) on the verses this is definitely worth a few listens.  [via Pitchfork]
