Last year, The Beastie Boys released an album of all instrumental jams called The Mix-Up. I thought it was a shame that it didn't get more attention, as I've always dug their vocal-less jams. I remember reading that they were going to give the tracks to other artists to remix/add vocals to, but that never happened. But, without a lot of hype, they just released six more instrumentals, I think it's an iTunes exclusive, simply called The Mix-Up: Bonus Tracks. Totally cool jams, and well worth the six bucks. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to their next album, which is supposed to be more of an old-school hip-hop thing, like Licenced To Ill (not lyrically, I'm sure).Sunday, December 28, 2008
