Get with it: Chiddy Bang, Hype Machine, varsity jackets

1 min read
Chiddy Bang is a US duo that combine elements of indie and electronica and hip-hop. The band has fused snippets of songs from artists such as Passion Pit, MGMT and Kate Nash with hip-hop to create original and catchy beats. Their debut single, Opposite of Adults, has proven hugely popular among teens as they rap about parties and college, with their sound appealing to fans of varying genres.

The Hype Machine, www.hypem.com, is an excellent website that handpicks the coolest music blogs written about new tracks from artists from around the globe. A great aspect of Hype Machine is the vast number of exclusive remixes and covers that are available for users to hear before they become officially released. The site also enables listeners to "love" songs, with the number of "loves" determining the tracks on its "most favourited music chart" (sic), making it easy to find the best, latest music available.

American varsity jackets are making a comeback this summer after celebrities such as Chris Brown, Kanye West and Drake were all seen sporting the design classics.
