Put a little wobble to that swag and we get A.Skillz remix of “Otis”. Can’t say I was the biggest fan of the original – I think Otis was in need of some funkedout wobble. Plus, I’m never one to resist an A.Skillz remix. He’s a genYus.

Love the vibes comin from Petty, plus we get those Bad Boy rhymes on top! Can’t say that I like Petty’s chorus tied in with the raps, but it’s still a solid rock out.
[audio:Mo-Fallin.mp3|titles=Mo Free Mo Fallin’ (Notorious B.I.G. // Tom Petty Mashup)]Oh man! does this bring back memories. And what a quality dubmix to put it all together. Figure has done just what I like in a dubstep remix, sticked to the original tune and made it all the more devilish. A perfect treat just in time for Halloween season!
[audio:Beetlejuice-Dubstep.mp3|titles=Beetlejuice (Dubstep Mix)]I’ve been obsessed with this little tune ever since Abi posted it. Now we get a remix from Beni with a nice lil bass number. Solid remix up until the end – gets a little weird (you’ll know when it hits). Otherwise, as enjoyable as the original.

Kap Slap takes the pop and mashes it up with the biggest names in dance music making for some well tuned RAGERS. From House to Dubstep, this guy can really pop it off with these pop stars. Though, it would be nice if he went to the underground scene a little, eh

As crazy as it is to say this already, this is vintage Porter. Heavy bass and house beats. Ever since his first song, “Say My Name,” climbed the charts on Beatport, people have been taking notice of Porter Robinson. The young producer proves that he can keep pace with the crafty veterans in sound production and on stage. If you haven’t yet, download his new Spirtfire Ep and catch him this month with Tiesto on their college invasion tour. BIG ups to BIG sounds.

I still may not appreciate his style enough, but those lyrics and fiiine ass beats makes him more than SoundKlout worthy.
What shocked me the most when looking over his SoundCloud tracks was something I don’t usually cover all too much with Gambino, the production. I would’ve loved to feature some of his earlier tracks, but the production, in all honesty, was awful. He really has done a 180 in his more recent work.
Check out these Childish rhymes by Gambino + his singing ever more!

Apparently, Grohl asked the guys to do this remix. Understandably, they’ve been doing some killer ones lately. I really should check the original, still wondering how it turned into this. (I think I’ll still be wondering)

Madeon is the latest big talent emerging from France and by listening to a few of his tracks, you quickly realize that he is bound to do great things in the electronic music industry. This remix of Pendulum’s “The Island” is a perfect example as he completely transforms the great original into an epic song by combining a powerfull bass track with wicked vocals and nice synth touches here & there.

I’ve been posting about these two quite a bit lately, so I decided to go over their SC collection and see what I could dig up. Wish they put up a little more, but still found a few quality dubstep remixes I haven’t heard before – though, I’m guessing if you’re into this whole scene, you’re probably familiar with most their work. To all else, enjoy! (as much as you can)
