Wik-It the Instigator : We Have Arrived (Re-Spliffed)
Yesterday Wick-it dropped some new tunage that VIBE described as ”a dubbed out moomba-mash-up that would make Bob Marley happy, Bassnectar proud and Bone Thugs give props.” Be sure to grab the FREE DL for this below and always remember to Let The Beat Drop.

Wick-it the Instigator : HOT SUMMER & Fresh on Tap Favorites
Hold on to summer with this bouncy mash-up from Wick-it the Instigator . The genre-bending producer from Nashville has a handful of tracks that we love, so we added a few extra that he released a while back. Enjoy!
DJ C.Nile : Vitamin C
Here’s a brand new Summertime mix from our very own South Carolina DJ and always promising by bringing listeners his favorite old school in with the new school. Opening with a monologue from Workaholics gets you right in the mood to start your pool party and get the stereo bumpin. It’s DJ C.Nile homie!

The electropop fivesome dropped their first single “Take A Walk,” off their upcoming Gossamer album due out July 24. As it streamed the Internet with its ambient summer energy it caught the Canadian trio’s emotions as they drop the official remix today. Enter the M Machine, who step up while busy on the Language Tour with Porter Robinson and Mat Zo make new value and an entirely different perspective to the original.

Two new remixes of “New Lands” surfaced the internet and today I have them both for you. Ed Banger Records will be releasing Justice’s New Lands EP later this month featuring remixes by Falcon and SebastiAn. A-Trak adds very crisp drums, and a laser synth line to produce what is an already bigger track even bigger. Enjoy his remix for streaming and download SebastiAn’s remix below.

Back to the farm we go!
The 11th annual Bonnaroo (derived from the French words bon (good) & rue (street) meaning “a good time”) kicks off this week, and we couldn’t be more excited. The festival gets knocked for booking “mainstream” artists, but if that means seeing Red Hot Chili Peppers, Phish, Radiohead, and the Beach Boys in the same weekend then we can’t complain. In addition to a stellar group of headliners, the fest has put together a pretty eclectic lineup (see: Big Gigantic, Bon Iver, Dispatch, Aziz Ansari, the Avett Brothers, SBTRKT, Ludacris, Foster the People, the Shins, Childish Gambino, Skrillex, Umphrey’s McGee, Black Star, and many more.)
Like any epic adventure, preparation is key. We’ve put together our list of the best artists you (probably) haven’t seen, must-brings, and must-do’s:
BEST ARTISTS YOU (PROBABLY) HAVEN’T SEEN

Must See :
• Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk
• SUPERJAM: this is a must-see every year as the festival brings legendary artists together for a show you only get one chance to see (previous Superjams: Ben Harper, ?uestlove [the Roots], and John Paul Jones [Led Zeppelin] and last year’s with Dan Auerbach [the Black Keys] and Dr. John)
MUST-BRING
• Sunscreen/Battery-Powered Fans (it’s HOT)
• Large Cooler – packed with dry ice beneath water bottles that will freeze and act as ice for your beer etc. or a truly refreshing bottle of water (you CANNOT bring enough water)
• Balloon/Flag – mark your campsite or bring it in to keep from losing your rowdy crowd inside Centeroo.
• Gas – fill your car just before entering; the occasional time spent with the AC cranked will be worth 10X the cost of the gas.
• Food – bring snacks (goldfish, fruit rollups, granola bars, etc.) NOT food that you’ll need to keep cold all weekend; the food inside the fest is delicious and relatively inexpensive.
• Spray Paint – the entire wall surrounding Centeroo is your canvas…whether it’s your initials or a full-fledged mural, the fest encourages everyone to make their mark.
• Tapestry/Blanket – use it to mark your spot as you wait on artists to take the stage…tapestries work best, as they are large but pretty lightweight.
• CamelBak – again, can’t stress the water thing enough.
• TP – let’s face it…you will have to brave the porta-potties, and often they end up toilet-paperless so it’s always good to carry a roll in your pack.
• Jacket/Rain jacket – I know it seems weird since it’s so hot during the day, but in the mountains it can get pretty chilly and/or rainy quickly.
• Small LED Flashlight
MUST-DO’S
• Wander to music you wouldn’t normally find in your headphones; you may discover your new favorite artist.
• Remember that it’s a music AND arts festival, so take advantage of the artistic offerings that cover the festival and camp grounds (see: yarn maze, giant teepee, the Centeroo wall, and Shakedown St.)
• Silent Disco – headphones on: raging with your friends to a notable DJ…headphones off: hilarious watching those same people rage in what appears to be total silence. (see Brenton Duvall and Mark Foster of Foster the People)
• Mushroom Fountain – not only is it refreshing, but fewer places at the festival (or the world for that matter) have more smiling faces…just make sure you hit it early in the weekend as it gets a little dirty.
• Go to one show in the Comedy Theatre (we recommend Brian Posehn, Aziz Ansari, and Reggie Watts)
• Ride the Ferris Wheel (ideally, once during the day and once at night)
• Sonic Stage – great place to catch artists in an intimate setting (Dawes, Gary Clark Jr., Trampled by Turtles, ALO, etc.)
• The Pit – get there early enough for one show on the What or Which stages and walk to the front left or right and get in line to get into the pit for the big show you most want to see.

Coachella was a success as usual but the event that made it all an epic experience would be the one of Tupac. He killed it performing live with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre as he came to life using 3D Mapping. Technology is a beautiful thing and they seemed to portal what is yet to come from the music industry.

R.I.P Don Cornelius
Don Cornelius, the smooth-voiced television host who brought us “Soul Train” was pronounced dead at 75 in Los Angeles Wednesday morning. Police found him with a gunshot wound to his head, which appeared to be self-inflicted. “Soul Train” created an outlet for black artists in spreading the music of black America to the world, offering wide exposure to musicians like James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye and Michael Jackson in the 1970’s and 80’s. Mr. Cornelius was a former disc jockey and created “Soul Train” in the 70’s for Chicago TV and served as its writer, producer and host. After becoming a local sensation he then moved out to Los Angeles to broadcast nationally, beginning a 35-year run in syndication. Mr. Cornelius has been a major icon and today we are paying a tribute to what they called “the hippest trip in America”.
