Check out ZMP this week for a few cool exclusives: a Can’t Tell Me Nuthin” remix - Kanye West featuring Young Jeezy; and Crookers ‘Wow’ remix of The Salmon Dance by The Chemical Brothers.

Both of these tracks are available either for individual purchase, or for quick download to Zune Pass subscribers.

The community of Zune sites on the web have a few cool giveaways, and I thought I’d highlight them:

• ‘Thoughts is giving away a Vaja Case - very nice.


• ‘rama is giving away a VAF Octavio 1


• IWAPZ.com is giving away free awesome. Which is awesome

If there’s one I’m missing, drop a comment - I’ll edit the post to include more free stuff. Which reminds me, I should clean out my office and see about doing another contest - any ideas on what I should do?

Also, be sure to check out ZMP tomorrow for an exclusive Kanye West track:  ”Can’t Tell Me Nuthin” remix featuring Young Jeezy.

Just a quick one guys to tell you that I’m leaving in a few minutes for the Montreal Olympic Stadium to see Genesis. Genesis was clearly one of my favorite bands when I was a teenager. I’m a keyboard player…

Ok, free music for your Zune. Readygo!
