A few weeks ago, iHipHop ran a post on the new DJ AM and Travis Barker unexpectedly mixtape, entitled Fix Your Face for fans and haters alike to jam to. There was virtually no press for the release until after it already came out, but it’s definitely worth the hype it’s recieving.

The tape is basically a medley of clever blends by AM and an uncanny showcase of Travis’s drum skills. By delving into different genres, sound effects and dozens of artists, AM keeps his DJ set creative and unprecedented – all while Travis improvises on the drums to go along with every track.

What’s so amazing is that Travis dives into every new track as if he expects it minutes before it comes, and adds so much to every song – you’d think the original artists would be coming to him for remixes on the regular.

Travis and AM have been doing shows together for a while in LA, and recently got some more hype after playing the role of house band during the MTV VMA’s – and performing alongside Katy Perry and Kid Cudi.

If you don’t yet have this mixtape, make sure to get it immediately here.
