fear and loathing
According to Elitaste, that Paper Route Gangstaz mixtape we've been waiting for all year finally has an official release date. It'll drop November 18, with no fewer than 5 Diplo remixes included on the tracklist. Here's Diplo's remix of "Bama Gettin Money" (check the Wham sample) and the mixtape sampler; you can hear Fear and Loathing's opening track, featuring Blaqstarr, at the PRGz myspace.

Empire of the Sun's Walking On A Dream LP is officially out today (what's with the Saturday release dates, Australia?), and upon first listen, it doesn't disappoint. I've always been a Luke Steele fan, and the stellar production here by Nick Littlemore (PNAU) is a perfect complement to some of Steele's finest, strangest work since Lovers. Hyperbole has one of the record's standout tracks, "Half Mast," here.
