All I do is party. 

The start of a beautiful new tradition.

MSTRKRFT - Out of Toronto.

Alright, so we're going to start a new tradition at F&F today. I'm still working on what I'm going to call it, but I'm just so excited I couldn't help myself from starting right away.

I'm a big fan of Hype Machine. Like, really super big fan. For those who don't know - HypeM is a networking site that lets you share tunes. It's essentially like a kickass Digg of the music world.

It's really opened me up musically the past few months, and I want to pass the savings on to you!!! (you're gonna need a hypem login, so get ready)

Weekends are about partying, relaxing, unwinding, all that great stuff, right? So here at F&F, every Friday, I'm going to throw at least 7 tracks at you to help you get through the weekend/week/whatever comes your way.Some you'll have heard before, some will be brand new, some will be weird, hilarious mash-ups, and some will just totally suck...

This is going to be the start of a beautiful new tradition. Maybe we can expand on it, who knows? More links? More tracks? Podcast? Maybe! That'd be kind of cool. But for now, let's stick to the basics. Here's your seven for the week:

1. Metric - Help Im Alive (The Twelves Remix) We're going to start with an oddly poppy remix of a highly singable Metric song. Which then brings us to....

 2.. Metric - Monster Hospital (mstrkrft rmx) ...A better remix of a better Metric song.

3. MSTRKRFT vs Futurecop! - Bounce vs NASA (Three Fingers bootleg) MSTRKRFT remixes and mash-ups blow me away, so here's another one.

4. MSTRKRFT - Heartbreaker (ft. John Legend) (Wolfgang Gartner Remix) ...and another one.

 5. Wolfgang Gartner - Fire Power (Original Mix) A kick-ass original by the bloke who remixed number 4.

6. Dizzee Rascal ft. Chrome - Holiday (prod. by Calvin Harris) Something a little different, but nonetheless danceable. The track is produced by Calvin Harris, a brilliant newbie out of England who has taken the world by storm remixing and producing and even dropping tracks of his own like.....

7. Calvin Harris - Ready For The Weekend An appropriate title.

Thar you go folks. See you next week!
