Sleep Lightly by Lisa DeBenedictis, remixed by OldDog

One of the more subtle parts of Lisa DeBenedictis's songs is the way her lyrics manage to be intimate and antagonistic at once. oldDog pairs this with a track that doesn't try to be nearly as flashy as other remixers, but instead aims to perfectly match the melody and theme of the lyrics. Sleep Lightly has everything sounding just right.

Fuego Camina Conmigo by Daniel Bautista

Fuego Camina Conmigo is an epic piece of instrumental rock that slides strings in as it meanders and explodes. He took those strings and arranged a brief but satisfying String Quartet version of the tune.

I recommend getting it in vorbis. Strings version oggifies well too.
