The art of the remix is a beautiful thing. This week, we have an esteemed group of talented producers doing everything from slight edits on necessary songs to total reworks for tracks that you NEED to hear in the club. We've also got a full remix album, because you can't love just one (rendition). It's that alternate version life.

You can't help it: Once there's a popular rapper or album, you can assume that there will be a cornucopia of edits, bootlegs, and remixes coming down

Trust, we listened to more than "Get Lucky" this week. Well, we tried to anyways. There's actually been a lot of great tunes coming about, and no shortage of dope remixes. This week's kind of a mixed bag, but we go from the unknown to the well-known. From the darkest corner to the brightest heaven. And if you send us an unofficial remix of "Get Lucky," we'll block you.

Download Star Slinger's "IV"
On the low/random, Star Slinger has been crafting some sly edits of four of his favorite divas in anticipation of NYE. Even if you're not in Chicago to check him out, you'll be able to dance the night away to four perfect edits, featuring rerubs of classic material from Anita Baker, Sade, Erykah Badu, and Ella Fitzgerald. No two edits are alike, which is how we like it. Great, mellow way to vibe out into 2013. Grab all four via Star Slinger's Facebook page.

Miguel - "Adorn (Star Slinger Remix)"
Miguel took 2012 by storm, and his cut "Adorn" was a huge part of it, to the point where people are still crooning this one to their lover(s). Star Slinger has that gift of the remix, and took a midtempo, piano-driven house approach to his rework. He also incorporated that half-time breakdown, similar to some of the sections of his recent remix of London Grammar, which does a lot for breaking up the flavor of the track. This might be the version of "Adorn" DAD thinks of from now on.

Ellie Goulding - "Don't Say A Word (Star Slinger Remix)"
Ellie Goulding's voice is a dance music producer's dream, and in the more-than-capable hands of Star Slinger, you've got a golden duo on your hands. For his remix of "Don't Say A Word," he flips a melody out of snippets of her vocals, creating a hypnotic wall of sound that rides atop his heavy house beat. True Star Slinger excellence.
