Keep On Looking

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

(& now for something funky) Sharon Jones is the original singer for the Dap Kings before Mark Ronson kidnapped them & got Amy Winehouse involved. Sharon Jones in much older than I thought she would be but she’s kind of amazing - go check people.

Bloc Party - Where is Love (Burial remix)

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

Bloc Party are sometimes dope and it was only a matter of time before they roped in dubstep killer Burial to re dub one of their tracks…

Dark & Moody but not at all bad.

Skatesteak

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

Mr Oizo is one of the most talented electronic producers in the biz. I picked up this 7″ in Phonica the other week and apparently it’s from some full length motion picture called ‘Steak’. We need guys like him to keep pushing boundaries.

Viva la France.

Drugs (are bad)

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

We think Drugs are bad news but lets face it - if you’re a teenager and want to stand out from The Pack you might as well rap about it. Stunnaman stand up.

Da Art of Story Tellin’ pt 4

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

Everyone loves Outkast & they’re back with a new joint for DJ Drama’s mixtape. I hear Mark Ronson tried to get them for his 1st LP but they were having none of it.

Tracks like this make us wonder when the new record is dropping.

Send Him Back (re-edit)

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

Sometimes a re-edit is all it takes to bring an old track back to life. This will probably be a hit sometime in ‘08. It’s another Pilooski re-work & we don’t think it’s out (yet).
