Google Play has Dave Matthews Band’s Live on Lakeside DRM-free MP3 Album in the Google Play Store for FREE for limited time.

Live On Lakeside documents the final day’s performance at the Chicago stop of the Dave Matthews Band Caravan, a series of four multi-day festivals celebrating the group’s 20th anniversary in 2011. Though Matthews and his cohorts possess plenty of verve, they sound as if they’re waging war with one of those oppressive Midwest summers. The jams don’t explode so much as they build, plateau, and then melt. A good example is “Seek Up.” One of the oldest pieces in the set—first appearing on 1993’s Remember Two Things—it gradually grows into a moody exploration of neo-Weather Report fusion.

Google Play is offering downloads of Busta Rhymes’s new album Year Of The Dragon for FREE for limited time. It includes 14 DRM-free tracks encoded at 320 kbps in MP3 format.

For two decades now, Busta Rhymes has drawn on a very specific and spastic type of energy—somewhere between craft-oriented party rocker and frothing-at-the-mouth apocalyptic paranoiac. On first listen, Busta’s ninth effort, Year of the Dragon, might seem subdued by comparison, as he’s mostly abandoned the hypertechnical fast raps in favor of more deliberate and menacing rap styles. But even in this restrained capacity, Busta operates at a higher intensity level than just about any of his peers, seething or shouting every word. He’s adaptable too, comfortable whether jumping into the clap-happy energy of current-day rap radio on “Grind Real Slow” or trading bars with Southern rap eccentric Gucci Mane over an old school James Brown beat on the aptly-titled “Make It Look Easy.”
