The Beastie Boys have been pumping out some of the best promotional blitz I've ever seen for their new record, Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2, out yesterday in stores and online.

In addition to the incredible Fight for Your Right Revisited short film, staring Seth Rogen, Elijah Wood, Danny McBride, John C. Reilly, Will Ferrell, Jack Black and cameos from a host of famous peeps, the 'Boys have been given the deluxe remix treatment by former Phoenician Z-Trip, who utilizes the group's entire discography for his 24 minute All-Access Beastie Boys Mega Mix.

"I was stoked and humbled when asked to do this mix. I've been a fan of The Beasties since I first heard Mr Magic interview them on WBLS in NY. I included some of my favorites as well as stuff off the new album. All remixed," says Z.

The remix is available for free on Z-Trip's Band Camp site.
