Notorious B.I.G, Mr. Cee’s Legendary 4 Hour Biggie Mix [Mixtape]
Four hour of Biggie. You could start this mixtape and Dances With Wolves at the same time, and be left with a whole other hour of Biggie. That’s enough Biggie to drive from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. It is, once again, FOUR HOURS OF BIGGIE.

Snow Patrol, “Take Back the City” [Tronic Youth Dark City Dub Remix]
We were not aware Snow Patrol could be this scary. This is perfect for the upcoming episode of Gray’s Anatomy where Dr. Shepherd goes crazy and kills everyone. Spoiler alert!

Built to Spill, “Paper Planes” [M.I.A. Cover]
“Paper Planes,” at this point, has become the new “Justice Remix.” It’s everywhere, and anything we ever loved about it in the first place is starting to fade. It’s like that new guy at the office who seems hilarious at first, but then you realize he’s only got like four jokes and he just keeps telling them over and over and over. So leave it to Built to Spill to give it some serious mouth-to-mouth: clanging guitars, big beats and yelping vocals. “Paper Planes,” how could we ever have betrayed you?

Jay-Z, “Heart of the City/Sunday Bloody Sunday” [Live Mashup]
The only downside to this recording of Jay performing “Heart of the City” over “Sunday Bloody Sunday” in Dublin two years ago is the possibility that Bono will hear it and try to do it himself. As Noel Gallagher has taught us, it’s best not to jock Jay-Z.

Marnie Stern, “Don’t Stop Believin’” [Journey Cover]
Are we still supposed to reference the Sopranos finale when we talk about this song? We got past that, right? This version is for those of you who thought the original did not have enough notes. Marnie Stern could outplay Yngwie Malmsteen. And yes, Yngwie, that is a dare. If you’re reading this. Which you’re probably not.
