We're partying like it's 1994 here at Uncut this afternoon, because the new Beastie Boys album has arrived. It's called 'The Mix-Up', and we're just grooving amiably to track seven, 'Off The Grid'. Track 5 - The Mix Up Track 6 - Fibonacci Sequence The Beastie Boys bring their game to this collection of bonus tracks from the Mix Up sessions. These cuts are much in the same vein as the initial release - stomping groovers without much in the way of song structure.

Beastie Boys The Mix Up Album
20 No Sleep Till Brooklyn (04:06)Beastie Boys Music is a compilation that arrives at the end of a period or self-reflection by the surviving Beastie Boys, an era kicked off by the 2018 publication of Beastie Boys Book, which was supported by a brief theatrical tour, which in turn was captured in Spike Jonze's 2020 film Beastie Boys Story. Beastie Boys Music arrived a few months after Beastie Boys Story, and it covers familiar territory, containing 13 of the 15 songs from 2005's Solid Gold Hits (everything you'd expect, from '[You Gotta] Fight for Your Right [To Party]' through 'Sabotage' to 'Intergalactic'), then adding five cuts to help round out the narrative. These additions and swaps make a big difference. Two cuts from To the 5 Boroughs, 'An Open Letter to NYC' and 'Triple Trouble,' are dropped in favor of 'Make Some Noise' and 'Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win,' both from 2011's Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, then 'Paul Revere,' 'Hold It Now, Hit It,' 'Shadrach,' 'Get It Together,' and 'Jimmy James' are all necessary ingredients added to the mix. The result is the best Beastie Boys greatest hits yet assembled: it has all the major items, presented in a lively fashion. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

The Mix-Up is the seventh studio album by Beastie Boys, released on June 26, 2007. The album consists entirely of instrumental performances and won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Album.[6]
Background[edit]
On May 1, 2007, an e-mail sent to those on Beastie Boys' mailing list revealed the album is all instrumental. Death star plans pdf.
OK, here's our blurb about our new album — it spits hot fire! — hot shit! it's official.. it's named THE MIX-UP. g'wan. all instrumental record. 'see i knew they were gonna do that!' that's a quote from you. check the track listing and cover below. you love us. don't you?'
On June 21, 2007, a legal stream of the entire album was released on BrooklynVegan.com.[7] Drummer Mike D said that 'even though The Mix-Up is a 'post-punk instrumental' album, the Beasties have no plans to ditch vocals for good. In fact, they are currently planning another version of the album that will feature collaborations with 'a pretty wide array' of 'mostly newer' vocalists.'[8] Two singers speculated to be featured on the vocal version were Jarvis Cocker and M.I.A.[9]
In an interview with The Aquarian Weekly, published in February 2008, the band was asked if they were making a statement about the status of hip-hop music by releasing an album strictly of instrumentals. “In a way, the album was a reaction to our hip hop,' said Ad-Rock 'Our last record was an all rap record, so when we started recording [The Mix Up] we wanted to work with some instruments, and it just sounded cool, so we kept with it.” [10] Mike D expanded on Ad-Rock's response, adding, 'We get asked, ‘What do you think of the state of hip hop today?’ a lot. Maybe I’m being defensive, but it seems like people always look for us to come out and criticize hip hop. But hip hop is what we grew up on, and it continues to be one of the only forms of music left that strives on evolution and innovation. Yeah, we might be in a spell where we’re waiting for that next record to come out and change everything—but still, that’s what hip hop is and that’s what puts it in its unique place.” [10]
