'Die Antwoord are busy finishing up the new album we been working on for the last 2 years called We Have Candy that we made with THE BLACK GOAT and GOD in the SOUL ASSASSINS studios in Los Angeles,' he continues. 'About 2 months ago we found out that rappers in the USA usually drop a free mixtape for their fans before they drop their album. So we thought, 'Hey we wanna do that!' THE BLACK GOAT said that there are no rules to making a mixtape and that you can do whatever you want, which is our favorite style.'

Don’t be shy, share your thoughts on the tracks in the comments section below. Crystal Castles feat. Robert Smith – ‘Not In Love’ This is definitely the most exciting collaboration to pop up on the web this week.
Crystal Castles just released an updated version of their song, this time with vocals from The Cure’s Robert Smith. This track will be available as the A-side of a single from the duo, along with B-sides of early acoustic demos of ‘Celestica’ and ‘Suffocation’, due out on December 6th. Weezer – ‘Unbreak My Heart’ (Toni Braxton cover) It’s probably one of the most classic songs of the ‘90s, and Weezer surprised us with a rather good cover of the Toni Braxton hit. Rivers Cuomo posted the track (recorded five years ago) on his band’s message board this week.
It will be appearing on their upcoming rarities album, ‘Death To False Metal’, available in the UK next Monday. Major Lazer – ‘Who Run De Floor On Halloween’ (AnimalStatuS remix) If you’ve still got a bit more Halloween spirit left in you, then you’ll enjoy this track that Diplo shared on his a few days ago as a “special Halloween treat”. Enjoy this ghoulish remix of Major Lazer’s ‘Pon De Floor’ from AnimalStatus.
Tapes ‘n Tapes – ‘Freak Out’ Head on over to the band’s official website to snag a free mp3 of their first single, ‘Freak Out’. It’s from their third studio album ‘Outside’ (available in January 2001 and released via their own label, Ibid Records).
