Why do we like this?
Most recently featured on our top remixes of 2011, R3K seems to have a serious knack for remixing strong female vocalitst with male rappers. First was the Florence/Kid Cudi marriage, and I just stumbled upon this other track featuring Lil' Wayne and Imogen Heap.
Sampling vocals from Lil' Wayne's "Swag Surfin" and transferring them on top of Heap's "Just For Now," the output is brimming with synthesized perfection. Lil' Wayne's gravelly rapping almost becomes white noise, leaving the focus on Imogen's lusciously symphonic floating vocals.
Usually I am wary of slash repulsed by mashups, but there are some that are too epic to refute. I'm not too sure what exactly happened because this track has amazing amounts of blow up potential - if you will - but it came out last May. Bloggers, where you at?
