Faction Remiz - DJ Arems' Rasklatt Remixes 1.1

So apparently posting remixes and blends isn't kosher with some people in this world. We posted some Rasklatt Dancehall Remixes a few days ago and the next day the post was gone. I guess some sort of laws were violated. Who knows. Here's a Re-Up of the two mixes that were posted the other day. Hopefully you're able to get these blends this time.
