We got a great response from last week’s clip of Alexander Robotnick and his bud Ludus Pinsky oscillating in the studio. So it comes as a treat to stumble across this new vid of them jamming out on Robotnick’s YouTube page, kicking a new tune called “N5 From Outerspace.” More soon!

Back with some Joe Budden and the rest of his Slaughterhouse friends, Curren$y, Young Dro, Pink Dollaz and more. Crack a Becks (ay!) and hit the jump.

Slaughterhouse “The One” [mp3 via Nah Right]
Infinitely better red cup frat rap than a zillion Asher Roth singles and Lil Wayne guitar “experiments” combined, and unlike those major label terds, probably put together on a recording budget on par with Joe Budden’s EZ-Pass. Plus, these are some dudes who you’d actually want to party with. Pause. Can’t place the rock sample (likely wrong here, but Giant Drag? She was cute, I must be projecting…) but Khalil certainly flipped-ed it, and you know these four can rap some shit. Looking forward to the full Slaughterhouse LP, between this, “Woodstock Hip Hop”, and the simple black, white and red pork artwork… GREAT SUCCESS!

Curren$y “Lamborghini Dreams” [mp3 via OnSmash]
This doesn’t really stray too much from the lush keyboard + quick rap formula of Curren$y’s digi-only LP from a few months back. I could have said “faux-Neptunes beats,” but tryna be charitable here - it’s fine, someone just needs to get this kid some old records! He has a stony charm (Fun fact: Curren$y came by the Fool’s Gold SXSW showcase this year, I told him I was a fan of his stuff and he was bummed I didn’t have rolling papers. Where was Duster?!?!?!) that his singles and original jams have yet to match. Check the joints (har har) on that Wale tape, I want more of that kinda stuff.

Jap f. Young Dro & Big Kuntry “How We Get It” [mp3 via Fader]
There’s a whole sub-genre of jolly-ass ATL tracks with these big major key sock-hop chord progressions and singalong choruses. The best ones have Young Dro on them.

Pink Dollaz “Never Hungry [mp3]
And the best jerk songs remind me of Crime Mob. Shout to Mr Ducker!

So you saw the pics from Dust La Rock’s gallery show Best Of The Beast (hailed everywhere from MTV News and the Village Voice to Diddy’s Twitter) and wished you could have been in the building? Or purchase some of those mindbending museum-quality prints for your own wall? We got you!

The entire BOTB collection is now up on the DLR website, where collectors can purchase pieces from this extremely limited run of signed and numbered Giclée prints beautifully printed on archival paper and canvas. Don’t miss out on the debut collection from our favorite artist in the world (we’re biased, but it’s true!)

If that’s not enough, Dust is taking Best Of The Beast mobile, with an installation this month at Commonwealth in Norfolk, VA. The opening party is July 11th, featuring a DJ set from Nick Catchdubs, Fool’s Gold giveaways, and the release of an exclusive Dust La Rock x Commonwealth t-shirt. Check the flyer after the jump, we’ll see you there!

Over on DJ Mehdi’s excellent blog, when he’s not shouting out Compton’s Most Wanted, Wu samples and his favorite international deejays, he’s posting up gems from his “vault” of unfinished and unreleased remixes. The newest websclusive is this remix of Crookers and Kid Cudi’s “Embrace The Martian” that was never quite finalized but still jams. Enjoy, and stay tuned for the Fool’s Gold Crookers EP this remix was first intended for, featuring new mixes of “Embrace…” by Seiji, DJ Gant-Man’s take on “Knobbers” and the finished version of “What Up Y’all” with Izza Kizza vox. Out soon! And while you’re staying tuned, Mehdi’s RED BLACK AND BLUE: Some Remixes By DJ Mehdi is out 9/9/09 on Ed Banger.

Gonzalez is at it again…
