Some highly anticipated music arrived last week, and its all yours for the taking, so get ready to right click away on this one:
1. Amplive’s collection of In Rainbows remixes, entitled Rainydayz Remixes
Available for free (and fully legal) download
MP3s here via onesevensevensix.com
2. EVeryone and their mother @ SXSW
Finally, the full SXSW schedule has been published. And while BYT is partaking in a killer DC showcase over there (more on that a little later this week) cruise on down to this handy link below to score some MP3s from favorites like: Oh No, Oh My!, The Dodos, Camp Lo, HEALTH and more.

3. Tapes N Tapes “Hang Them All”
The blogosphere (I still shudder at the word) is on the edge of their seats awaiting the new Tapes n Tapes album. And this is why.
MP3 here via You ain’t no Picasso
4. Megafun “Lazy Suicide”
Megafun looks like a trio of your favorite slightly insane high-school teachers all bearded, tweeded out and with questionable sweater vest choices but to quote Stereogum: the way “Lazy Suicide” builds into ragged psychedelia before returning to strong, sorta forceful harmonies is a good example of why we’re digging these guys
I agree, despite the use of my least favorite word of the year (psychedelia) in this sentence

5. Goldfrapp, “It’s Not Over Yet” (Klaxons cover)
Not that I am about fixing things that aren’t broken to be begin with (which is why I did not include this Kate Nash covering White Stripes thing-a-ling in here) but this is pretty much great, in my book.
MP3 here via Zeon
6. Idle Warship, “Tour Diary”
Talib Kweli will be in town next week and this song from his side project with Res, about the hardships of the music biz, is so good, it probably does deserves a better music business.
MP3 here via Mixtape Maestro
7. Clark “Truncation Horn”
I’ll be the fist one to admit that Clark’s vaguely psychotic exercise in sound distortion is one of the more unique things you’ll hear this week, but “on repeat”? (as Pitchfork puts it?).
It requires balls of steel to just power through this once.
