  • Chris Brown, Tyga Share 'Ayo' Lyric Video [WATCH]

    Chris Brown and Tyga have shared the lyric video for their recent "Fan of a Fan 2" single "Ayo," which you can check out below. The video is edited to look like a jittery VHS tape, and being a hip-hop video there are also plenty of images of cash, cars, diamonds, champagne and nearly naked women. There is plenty to keep your eyes busy, since the lyrics are not really anything to brag about.

  • Aphex Twin Shares New Song 'Diskhat ALL Prepared1mixed' from New EP [LISTEN]

    Tomorrow, Jan. 23, electronic artist Aphex Twin — aka Richard D. James — will be releasing his new EP "Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments PT 2," but today he has offered a small taste of the EP by sharing a remix of its opening track "Diskhat ALL Prepared1mixed 13" through his newly created SoundCloud page, which you can check out below. The track is relatively low-key and moody, with some krautrock-inspired percussion and an emphasis on the space between notes as much as the notes themselves. As the title of the EP implies, the track seems to be rooted in acoustic instruments such as drums and piano, which have then been manipulated by computers. You can't really dance to it — do people really dance to Aphex Twin? — but it is still incredible.

Burial fans will not be disappointed.
