<i>The Glow Remixes</i>

Last year, prolific hip-hop producer RJD2 dropped his genre-hopping album The Colossus. While the record dabbled in sci-fi synth-hop, standout track "The Glow" was a jaunty '70s soul number full of twinkled ivories and funky guitars. As great as the song was, some of RJD2's pals have stepped in to work their magic on the number via The Glow Remixes.

While Paolo and Candy Panther's laid-back remixes are quite effective, it's Flosstradamus's remix, which works wriggly "Atomic Dog"-styled synths atop an '80s electro groove, that really takes the song to another level.

You can download the three-track release for free at Bandcamp.
