Pitchfork

Ghislain Poirier is set to release his Ninja Tune debut No Ground Under in the U.S. this month, and the bass-obsessed Montreal DJ/producer has assembled a 40-minute megamix that sets his album's grime-, ragga-, dancehall-, Baltimore club-, and crunk-infused beats alongside his remixes of tracks by Dizzee Rascal, Lil Wayne, and others. There's a lot here to get heads nodding, including two versions of Poirier's "Blazin" that aren't built to sell Toyotas. Poirier previously provided Forkcast with a mix of African hip-hop, which is still worth checking out if you haven't already.
