Aesop Rock - All Day: Nike+ Original Run

this is the first must-buy from iTunes i've ever recommended. as part of this series, each artist contributes a mix designed to simulate a run, with a warm-up, peak and cool portion of the music. the first ones were just mixes of other tracks, but AR has created a completely original mix featuring live instrumentation, similar to what the Beasties do, however, he doesn't cram it with too many lyrics, just the right amount of choruses and snippets not to ruin the flow. i always thought EL-P did most of his production, but this is a stellar example of his production skills. essential.

Are these available sans drm? I'd like to check this out (the LCD soundsystem one also) but I don't play itunes/ipod. Fuck even if they are noDRM you need itunes installed to buy anyway, am I right?

the lcd soundsystem one is not a mix of other tracks.

and yes it is floating about internets in mp3

yeah the LCD was original but the Crystal Method run was a mix.
