2. HBK Gang - "Never Goin' Broke"

Bay Area collective HBK Gang's Gone Forever is full of fun, lighthearted, West Coast hip-hop, and they mastered the formula throughout the mixtape, but they really hit their stride perfectly with the last track on the project, "Never Goin' Broke," featuring Iamsu!, P-Lo, Kool John, Jay Ant, Skipper, and Kehlani. Download Gone Forever in its entirety here.

3. Passion Pit - "Carried Away (Blood Diamonds Remix)"

Blood Diamonds' remix of Passion Pit's "Carried Away" will trick you into believing summer might not actually be over yet (R.I.P. Summer 2013).

4. Yuck - "Rebirth"

Yuck's "Rebirth," which features the band's signature hazy, laid-back sound, will be featured on their sophomore album, Glow & Behold, due October 1.

5. Lupe Fiasco - "SLR 2"

No one's reacted stronger to Kendrick Lamar's verse on "Control" than Lupe Fiasco, so naturally, he had to also release a response track. Whether "SLR 2" is actually a Kendrick diss is sort of besides the point; it's just nice to see these rappers so fired up.

6. Young Wonder & Black Light Dinner Party - "We Are Golden"

Young Wonder and Black Light Dinner Party have agreed to interpret each other's tracks, and the first to serve up their cover is Young Wonder, who take on BLDP's "We Are Golden."

7. Budo - "Barcelona"

You've probably heard a number of stellar remixes from Budo, as well as songs featuring his production, but he's about release an all-Budo album. Check out "Barcelona," our first taste of his forthcoming project.

8. Dpat ft. Sango & Isles - "Above Us"

Dpat, Sango, and Isles link up for a slinky, seductive track titled "Above Us," which will be featured on Dpat's upcoming album, In Bloom.

9. Misun - "Hills and Trails"

Misun's "Hills and Trails" features some Western influence, updated with electronic elements and R&B-infused vocals. It'll transport you to the wild, wild west.

10. The 1975 - "Pressure (BEAR // FACE Remix)"

There are songs that make you feel like you're underwater, and then there's this BEAR // FACE remix of The 1975's "Pressure." You'll feel like you're floating in the ocean.

11. Trinidad Jame$ ft. Fabo, Danny Brown & Playa Fly - "Quez"

Trinidad Jame$ dropped his latest mixtape 10 Pc Mild earlier this week, and it's heavy in features. Check out the Fabo/Playa Fly/Danny Brown-featuring "Quez" below, and download the rest of 10 Pc Mild here.

12. Key Nyata ft. Nacho Picasso & Avatar Darko - "My Way"

For those who prefer their rap dark and looming, Key Nyata, Nacho Picasso, and Avatar Darko's "My Way" is a hypnotic offering that'll satisfy your needs.

13. Mikky Ekko - Kids (Max Martin'd by Djemba Djemba Trollmix)

Even though this track was supposed to be Djemba Djemba mocking Max Martin's annoyingly poppy style, the overall result of this remix of Mikky Ekko's "Kids" works incredibly well.

14. Darq E Freaker's FADER MoMA PS1 Warm Up Mix

Darq E Freaker DJ'd at MoMA PS1 yesterday, so to whet everyone's appetites, he dropped a warm-up mix earlier in the week. On it is Danny Brown's "Headstand," which you can stream via YouTube below. Download Darq E's mix in its entirety underneath the stream.

15. Death Grips - "Klink (Djemba Djemba Remix)"

Oldie but a goodie from Djemba Djemba. His take on Death Grips' "Klink" is quite a stark contrast from that "Kids" remix.

16. Mikky Ekko - "Kids (Cid Rim Remix)"

So the poppy Djemba Djemba remix of "Kids" wasn't really to your taste. Not a worry. Here's a subdued take on the song courtesy of LuckyMe's Cid Rim.
