Make no mistake, we're fully literate in this piece, but when we first heard the opening sample for "She Got Her Own," we were pretty much hoping it had been the Heatmakerz who'd kidnapped Cam'ron all along, and sent this as a mislabled Protools file. Instead we get NeYo dressed up as Ralph Tresvant and Fab finally repaying that "Make Me Better" favor. Either way, its Friday! Oh yea, Cam'ron, if you're...

More and more, the Portland trio have injected their quirky prog punk with everything from classically-leaning piano to stop-start math riffs to ProTools-treated samples to whatever the hell they can think of. It’s the kind of forward thinking, everything goes approach that over [...]

Unlike rock, as is often the case with over-produced pop music, sometimes it just doesn't sound that great live. Well, at least not via YouTube videos with sound filtered through tiny laptop speakers! Below are live clips of The Saturdays ' next single "Up," due out in October, and Aqua 's new song "Back To The '80s." I'd be interested to hear the studio version of The Saturdays jam. Aqua, though?...

Although this is being pushed as a sampler, I think these were the 30-seconds snippets that were available briefly on FatBeats. The filesizes look more like previews than full versions. GZA is still keeping it brief, son, half short, twice strong. DOWNLOAD // GZA - ProTools Album Sampler via UniverSOUL & Blind I

Ozzy Osbourne has revealed that he will make two more albums and then retire.

I've got a ProTools machine downstairs in my house now, I record from home now. I can't turn the fucking thing on. It's like the brain of the house. But when you have somebody who knows...
