so? i dont give much of a fuck

Keak gets all emotional...

"First second verse, this my third

Sixth grade driving to school I had a firebird"

                                                                        -Keak da Sneak, from "Super Hyphy"

You guessed it, keak da sneak is back makin music. New album out in april titled "Diefied". The new song is called "Nothing Without You," features the one and only Messy Marv, and is about Keak and his special lady.  Clearly Mr. da Sneak has gotten in touch with his feminine side and wants to express his feelings to the world. Don't hate.

Take that pre

On a note completely unrelated to music or popular culture for that matter, my friend and former next-door-neighbor AJ Acosta recently ran a 3.58.52 mile, his first sub-four, which broke Steve Prefontaine's school record for the indoor-mile and qualified AJ for the NCAA indoor championships. I know that a sub-four is something Ajs been gunning at for sometime now and I thought I'd give him his due props. Read the U of O article about it here, and watch the race below.

France knows indie ... La Blogotheque

Well in recent days the blog world hasn't given me much of anything new to post about (except this new Black Keys song which I can't find a mp3 for) so I thought I'd show off one of my favorite websites, La Blogotheque. Blogotheque is by itself just a French indie music blog (written in french not necessarily french music), but the real draw are their "Les Concerts A Emporter" or "Take Away Shows". For these shows (I'm pretty sure they started out as podcasts) artsy french director Vincent Moon films indie bands playing songs in various odd spots in Paris. The result is a very intimate look into both Paris as well as the bands themselves. Many notable acts such as; The Shins, Of Montreal, Voxtrot, Sufjan Stevens, Beirut, The Kooks, Arcade Fire, and Vampire Weekend among countless others are featured and look like they're having a great time. Below are two of my favorites; first, Grizzly Bear doing a acapella doo-wop rendition of their song "The Knife" and second, Portland band Menomena plays "Wet and Rusting" while two little kids jam. Both are really cool as are all the others linked above, so check it out...

#10.4 - Grizzly bear - The Knife

#62.3 - Menomena - Wet and Rusting

RATATAT where are you?

Ratatat is one of my favorite bands. i saw them in Portland last year and bought the second instalation in their remix compilation series. turns out they are giving it out for free, it also turns out it is the dopest remix CD ever created. you probably cannot get the actual CD anymore but at least you can download the album for free. here

but incase you don't believe me here is a little somthin somthin off their remixes vol. 1

Lil Wayne Wednesday #5 ... Problems with tha Purple

Oh sweet Jesus. Click this link now. Did you watch the video? Do that, come back after, we'll still be here ... 

The last minute? Oh my god. I wonder if MTV feels bad interviewing someone who is legitimately high as a kite.

Back to the matter at hand, Weezy has a problem. He is addicted to codine/promethazine aka syrup, sizurp, purp, purple stuff or lean. People are worried, and by people I mean his mom. He's slurring his words, saying things that don't make sense and kissing other dudes. He also keeps delaying the release of his new album which is obviously because he's so high on prescription cough medicine.

In all seriousness though, purp killed Pimp C, Big Moe, and DJ Screw, I'd rather we didn't add weezy's name to the list (mostly because the carter 3 would never drop). So for Weezy and his mother's sake pray for weezy to quit lean.

For now here's some musical syrup inspiration ...

Big Moe ft Project Pat, Big Pokey, and D-Gotti - Purple Stuff (Remix) ... At 1:47 Big Moe literally says he's "gonna sip, sip, sip, sip til the day that i'm gone" ... and he did, wow.

Carter 3 in april now I guess, i bet a dollar detox comes out first.

DJ Z-Trip is still tight; MSTRKRFT have mustaches

Although I still like to hold out hope that Z-Trip refuses to computer vinyl emulator programs and only fucks with vinyl, seeing him do his thing makes me not care about the answer to that question. I submit, I he does have a laptop off to the side, but whatever. No other balding thirtysomething man can continually lay down supreme mixes like DJ Z-Trip. Going from favorites like mixing the vocals from Nas' Made You Look to different really tight beats to a brand new cancerous mix of Bang Bang by Nancy Sinatra, Z-Trip still holds a precious place in my heart. I'm glad he's not still only playing private yacht parties in Miami, like Ronte once told me......... anyway he's tight.

FOR EXAMPLE SOMEONE ELSE'S VIDEO:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



MSTRKRFT on the other hand just have mustaches. They're cool too, I guess.

DVNO, four capital letters

The french musical dynamos known as Justice did the world a favor this weekend by making DVNO their new single and an awesome music video. DVNO is easily one of their best songs off of their album and with a crazy ass So Me directed video Justice has yet another winner. Ballin.

Estelle ft Kanye ... Hot Fire

Estelle ft Kanye West ... I'd think Kanye was way too arrogant if he wasn't so good at having a hand in really awesome songs... this one's called "American Boy" and its really good.

 

Ying Yang Twins go electrotron

What do you expect from the Ying Yang Twins these days? Southern hip hop? Shitty horn rap? Crunk? The whisper song II? Naw fuck that. Consider this: a Beastie Boys sample and techno party beat trendy enough for any obnoxious hipster music blog. Now we're fucking talking. I scratch my head as to how this happened. Nonetheless, the new Ying Yang Twins single, "Drop", employs musical tactics one would more expect to find from SebastiAn remix than from a bunch of huge crunk assholes down south. Not that they're rapping about anything new, but the change of pace is nothing less than hilarious.

Ying Yang Twins - Drop

Breakbot Just Blew My Mind

Breakbot is from Paris. The way music has been lately, you should know from that information alone that its gonna be good, and it is. Breakbot's original tracks and remixes alike have a very Justicey feel to them, lots of interesting and complex beats with eerily perfect vocals to match. The end result is good electronic music that you don't have to be high on ecstasy to enjoy all the time.

This first track is a remix of a PNAU (a band I also highly recommend and may blog about further on a later date) song called "Baby". If you ever wished for a more mellow D.A.N.C.E. this is the track for you. Also posted is an original Breakbot track called "Happy Rabbit" which is just a good song.

PNAU - Baby (Breakout Remix)

Breakbot - Happy Rabbit

Kitsune 5

The fifth edition to the ultra party compilation was released at the begining of this month so by hipster standards its old news. None the less Kitsune Maison vol. 5 is noteworthy. With big names like MIA Yelle and Fisherspooner backed up with a fistfull of up and comers like The Teenagers and DatA (the dopest) It is a solid Lineup to jam out to.

DatA-Aerius Light

MIA-XR2 (Silverlink V Kicks Like A Mule Aka 92juk)

New Ghosthustler ... Awesome

Awesome, awesome, awesome. I wish I had another way to describe Ghosthustler, but awesome is all too fitting. Every track they touch turns into hot fire and literally burns right in front of them ... okay that might be getting a little extreme, but its true. When listening to Ghosthustler you will want to do one of two things; either dance ... a lot, or, hop in a car and drive fast with the music up real loud. Thats it, I'd try to better explain what they sound like but all you'd get is synth, awesome, dance, more awesome and so on. Listen to the music, you will not be disappointed...

Ghosthustler - Someone Else's Ride

For more Ghosthuster check out my first ever blog post here.

Two Post Tuesday?? ... The Mystery Jets

Looking at the blog today I realized that with my last post I've ousted indie rock/pop from the front page. As this is something I just can't stand for, I thought I'd break my usual one post a day habit to bring you some new(ish) indie pop. The Mystery Jets are from Eel Pie Island in London (yes there somehow is an island in London and they named it after seafood baked goods), and make some pretty awesome musics. They put out a UK only release in 2005 which had some commercial success hitting 36 on the UK charts. Since then they've been building indie blog notoriety with a slew of remixes including one by the french musical wizards known as Justice. Their new album "21" will be released on the 24th of march and features the lead single "Young Love". The song is indie pop in all its glory. English accents, distraught lovers, and a catchy melody. Anywho the music speaks for itself...

Mystery Jets - Young Love

Mystery Jets - You Can't Fool Me Dennis (Justice remix) ... (this might be the only Justice remix ever thats less complicated than the original)

Remember that band The Roots

Remember the Roots? ... yeah they slipped me too. Their last CD came out almost 2 years ago now and even though they've been a band longer than I've been alive (seriously 1987 ... wtf) I had forgotten how good they were. Even though their new CD "Rising Down" doesn't have an estimated release date yet, they have a new track floating around the net. "75 Bars" is exactly that, 75 bars of ?uestlove thuggin it on drums and Black Thought putting down a two and a half minute verse, no chorus (he don't need it), and proves he can still flow with the best of em. I wouldn't expect the song to be a hit, or even a single, but its a shining example of how The Roots can still get it done, even if they are 20+ years in the game. 

The Roots - 75 Bars (Black's Reconstruction)

The Cool Kids get their grown man on

Well everyones favorite 80's loving rappers Chuck Inglish and Mikey Rocks aka The Cool Kids are back on the grind taking time off of their Australian tour to release the lead single off their upcoming EP "The Bake Sale". The new track is called "Action Figures" and is the neon duo's first take on rap of a little more serious note, i.e. not just pagers and bicycles. Although everyone else already is rapping about the plight of the ghetto, its a fresh twist for the Cool Kids. The highlight is certainly their surprisingly good flow compared to the slightly disjointed nostalgia raps of past tracks. The beat is extremely stripped down but allows the two Chi-Town MCs to take the spotlight. Who said the Eighties were dead? Anywho, the music speaks for itself... 

The Cool Kids - Action Figures

C.R.A.C Music

As of late I've been trying to keep up with the music blog over at Fader magazine, which happened to be formerly edited by RTS fave Nick Catchdubs. Anywho they put me on to a couple of new artists one of whom is C.R.A.C. Knuckles. Now from what I discover through about 15 minutes of research is that the band is two rapper/producers named Ta'Raach & The Lovelution (yes thats one person?) and Blu. Long story short they have a band, a new CD April 22 called "The Piece Talks", and a song (single?) entitled "Buy Me Lunch". Its pretty light on the rap and heavy on the old school RJD2 style funk. Give it a listen and if you like what you hear check out the respective C.R.A.C. members myspaces for a bunch of other free tracks from the new CD.

C.R.A.C. Knuckles - Buy Me Lunch

Lil Wayne Wednesday #4

This week on lil wayne wednesday i've decided to have a little blast from the past and post the first single ever to feature our boy Weezy F. Baby. The track is Juvenile's southern classic "Back That Azz Up". Weezy dropped a 30 second verse on the track that consisted of him saying "drop it like its hot" several times and then just making noises but seeing as the track was released in 1998, weezy was at the tender age of 14 years old, i'll cut him some slack. So listen and enjoy... remember The Carter III is only 27 days away. Thizz.

Juvenile ft Mannie Fresh and Lil Wayne - Back That Azz Up

Castro Steps Down ... yay Capitalism

Cuban communist president Fidel Castro resigned today after 49 years of rule. Some might consider this a striking victory for capitalism (that is unless his lil bro Raul can keep being a commie crackin). In honor of this I'm declaring declaring today Cash Rules Everything Around Me Day. So go to the bank, withdraw any and all money you have, put it in as many bills as possible and make it rain on some hos. Yay Capitalism!

Diplo's baby makin music - AEIOU

Diplo's a musical thug. He makes music that hits you, whether its dirty samples (see his Young Folks remix), darkness (see Veni Vidi Vici remix), or 100 percent soul (see what i'm about to show you). AEIOU itself is eight years old and was made with diplo's homie Triple Double and is also hot fire. If I had to categorize the funky jumble of soul and bluesy samples that the mix is I would say its what it would sound like if Diplo dj'd you having sex, or smoking, or maybe just your whole life. The result is a disorganized stew of awesome, with tracks streching to 16 minutes in length and no real discernible transitions between them, its not difficult to just get lost in the music. So if you like soul or are just trying to set the mood throw on AEIOU vol 1 and have a great time. 

The whole thing's free at Diplo's "Mad Decent" blog and here's a fav track of mine for a little sample.

Diplo and Triple Double - 2wo

And in case you're not up on your Diplo heres a couple more remixes of his...

Young Folks Pussy - Diplo

Oh yeah surprise ending too...

Noah & The Whale makes me happy

Well looking at the blog a little earlier i discovered that the last like billion posts have been rap music, sooo as a change of pace i thought i'd post my new favorite song which just so happens to not be rap. Noah & The Whale is an indie-folk rock band from london and they shure know how to make some catchy music. Their song "Five Years Time" is by no means new, i actually think hype machine had a entry for it like a year ago, but the band is still relatively unknown even amongst the up-to-the-minute blog scene. The song itself though is pretty hard to hate (its the ukulele that does it), but best of all its perfect for a sunny day, which I've finally been blessed with in dreary eugene this week. So as soon as you get some sun wherever you happen to be put this song on and you will have a great time, i guarantee it.

Noah & The Whale - Five Years Time

Lil Wayne Wednesday #3

Well surprise surprise, The Carter III has been postponed once again, to March 18. So while you're wiping away your tears of sorrow because you'll be waiting a month for new Weeezy tracks, I thought I'd remind you of why you should love Lil Wayne....

"I don't really want to, but these niggas making me

Put a motha fucka on ice like the Maple Leafs

Thats a hockey team, and I ain't on no hockey team

But I'm a champion, where's the fuckin Rocky theme

Damn, rest in peace Apollo Creed

I'm a monster, everyday is Halloween"

                                                                     Weezy, "Upgrade" from the Drought III

Sweet Jesus, lets have a quick recap ... in eight lines he threatens murder, makes reference to a hockey team, repeats the same multi-word phrase in the same sentence, makes reference to Rocky, pays respect to a deceased fictional character, and claims every day to in fact be a candy filled holiday. He's so violent yet introspective at the same time. Greatest rapper alive? Hey, its hard to argue with.

Lil' Wayne - Upgrade

Oh, yeah weezy pleaded not guilty on friday to one count each of possession of a narcotic drug for sale, possession of dangerous drugs, misconduct involving weapons, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Don't Hate.

R.I.P. Apollo Creed

MAC DRE HAS A NEW ALBUM FROM THE GRAVE

FUCK TUPAC

DOWNLOAD IT HERE

Atmosphere is still around

A lot of times we forget that Slug is not white. Apparently, he was sooooo pissed about this he had to put out a mixtape to clear the air. Slug raps that he's "young, gifted and mixed," just to remind us of his sweet ethnic diversity, which of course lends him credibility when rapping. Actually, none of this has anything to do with the mixtape, which Slug and Ant released because they've been extremely prolific lately, releasing a number of Sad Clown Bad Fall/Dub or whatever EPs that have some good moments. This Strictly Leakage mixtape is actually month-old news, but it's pretty good, and I enjoy giving away music that the artist is actually giving away as well. Plus, it's funny. The track "Domestic Dog" is about hitting on women at the grocery shop, something that the pimp of all pimps Mac Dre wouldn't even do, as going there certainly wasn't his job. Slug raps, "in the condom aisle/with your awesome smile/tomorrow we should watch Lost and hang out a while." Yeah cleverness.

Download Strictly Leakage here.

Clipse been at it again...

Clipse reps VA. They also sold (still sell?) lots of cocaine. But if you ever heard any of their songs you already knew this. Well they're back at it with their group The Re-Up Gang and they got a new mixtape to build some hype for a spring LP. While some of the material is a little old (we get it you sold cocaine) the rapping is as good as ever, if not better. Pusha T, Malice, Ab-Liva, and Sandman get their lil weezy on tearing it up over jay-z, dr dre, and wu-tang beats with no remorse. The whole mixtape is free off their site (see link below) and its hot like fire, also I added one of my fav tracks below...

Roc Boys - Re-Up Gang

We Got It For Cheap, Vol 3 Mixtape by Re-Up Gang

I get it, France is trendy ... The Teenagers

The Teenagers are the trendiest band in the world, period. Never before could a single band gain such a wide following based almost solely on the fact that they wear cool eighty's clothes and live in France. Before I really listened to the Teenagers they pissed me off, hell they still do, but their music really grows on you. Early last year their track "Starlett Johansson" was bouncing around the web and, to say the least my initial reaction was of distaste. As such I ignored their song "Homecoming" when it came around a little later. But the hype grew and grew and when they released their first LP "Reality Check" the other week I felt another listen was due. And what do you know, those French assholes hooked me. As it turns out Homecoming is one of the better tracks I've heard in a while. The song is about a hook-up between a snarky british hipster guy and a dumb american ho and the results are funny. In a monotone french accent the band belts out some comical stuff like "i fucked my american cunt ... it was dirty/a dream come true/just how I like it/she's got nice tits".... awesome. All this over surprisingly good synth/guitar/drum work. The album itself has its ups and downs, but give it a listen or two and it'll be hard to hate, as much as you may want to. Anywho the music speaks for itself...

The Teenagers - Homecoming

Lil Wayne Wednesday #2

Welcome to Wednesday!!! If there's one thing that I have a passion for its my theory of the relative quality of rap music. It seems more and more true that the quality of rap music is entirely dependent on how good a beat is. You could take the poorest rapper and put them on a good beat and they would sound great, while you'd need the best rappers to make a bad beat a good song. Lil' Wayne's "Shooter" from the "Carter II" albuum is a shining example of the truth of this theory. Despite Weezy's self proclaimed status of "greatest rapper alive" he couldn't save the song with his rhymes, and JT wannabe Robin Thicke sure didn't help. It seemed like all was lost... until DJ Nick Catchdubs got his hands on it. Catchdubs, producer of Wale's kickass "100 miles and running" mixtape, takes a stinker and makes it real hot shit. As it turns out rap sounds better over nasty bass rather than crap... who knew.

88 Shots (Nick Catchdubs Remix) - Lil' Wayne ft. Robin Thicke

PS: Catchdubs' "W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E." was the best remix of 2007 ... 

yeah i said it, seriously, cop "100 miles and running"

PPS: Black Lips at Wow Hall in Eugene tonight... go see it.

Simian "Pre-Mobile Disco"

I was doing a little internet perusing the other day when I stumbled across a little ditty about how awesome Simian was (thanks missingtoof). I myself had only heard the Justice remixed "Never Be Alone" and the work of their spin off band Simian Mobile Disco. But I was quite impressed with one song of theirs in particular "LA Breeze". This song has the electronic oomph of their "mobile disco" songs but has a little more of the lyrical continuity that the more techno embracing mobile disco shies away from. In essence you get an english rock band with sweet electro beats... like The Klaxons but better. Anywho the music speaks for itself...

Simian - LA Breeze

Kid Sister and A-Trak love dinosaurs

The family connections between sweet music people in Chicago are endless. A-Trak's brother is the mustachioed half of Chromeo. Kid Sister's brother is J2K from Flosstradomus. Kid Sister and A-Trak are dating. Wow. It's also rumored that our own Nate G's mom picked Flosstrodamus up from the airport. But I digress. Kid Sister will be running the game of girl rap in no time, and even if some compare that to women's basketball, it doesn't matter because she has some real skills. A-Trak is more than happy to deliver the jams both backing her and as a standalone act, and any dj that incorporates Biz Markie into their set has my vote. Plus, they played at the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum amongst dinosaur skeletons and taxidermied bears and buffalo. Even though some scrub tried to jack my hyphy goggles when I did some stage diving, I still dub their shit: awesome.

Check out a sweet remix of Pro Nails here.

Hollywood Holt

i like to think of him as a friend of a friend. Hollywood Holt and the Cool Kids are homies which makes us basically best friends. i dont really know what to think of him as a whole yet but he has some cool tracks. just like every other rapper, he has recorded his own lyrics over Throw Some Ds, but this time i am pretty stoked because the whole thing is rapping about shitty mopeds. also he released a mix tape which you can download here.
here a couple off the mixtape and a remix.

Lil Wayne Wednesday #1

Welcome to Wednesday. When we first started this blog one of the things I wanted to do was have a sweet weekly theme post (i.e. remix sunday on palms out) and what better musical artist to fulfill this than the best rapper alive. I know if there's one thing that'll get me through hump-day, its Lil Wayne. This first song is Jay-Z's "Hello Brooklyn" which features our man lil wayne, but as a little twist its the Hood Internet's remix mashing hov and the carter with Xiu Xiu (a bay area indie band that I've never heard of... but it sounds good). Anyway its a good song and Weezy brings it so have a nice wednesday...

I Do Brooklyn When I Want (Jay-Z and Lil Wayne v Xiu Xiu) - ABX

PS: weezy's facing felony drug and weapons charges for his bust the other day, so start making your free weezy shirts now....

Gnarls is Back

Remember two summers ago? Yeah me neither, however that happened to be the time when the world became enthralled by a certain band named Gnarls Barkley and their hit song "Crazy". Well the duo of Cee-Lo and the musical genius known as DJ Danger Mouse are back at it again. Today they announced their soon to be released 2nd album will be named "The Odd Couple" no official date yet but expect one soon. Additionally this morning I came across a new Gnarls single (care of the Panda Toes blog) titled "Run" which may or may not be their new smash hit. I thought I'd post it here though so in case it ends up being the new Crazy you can say that you had it way back in January, I know thats what I'll do....

Gnarls Barkley - Run

The Reduction Agents...

Well its snowing here in Eugene and I don't feel like going to class so I thought I'd introduce the blogosphere to yet another New Zealand band that has tickled my fancy as of recent. The Reduction Agents hail from the Kiwi capital of Auckland and play fun happy indie pop music. I discovered the band when I heard their song "80's Celebration" in the NZ indie flick "Eagle vs Shark", starring the Conchords own Jemaine Clement. Lyrically 80's Celebration makes very little sense but what it lacks in coherence it makes up in awesome. If you listen to this song and don't have great time you should probably see a physician... because you're suffering from some sort of illness... party on.

Reduction Agents - 80's Celebration

PS: Hype Machine tells me that no other blog around has posted this band... yeah yeah yeah

Mike Relm Sunday

It is sunday, which means last night i went to the blue man group. they were awesome as usual with there cover of baba o riley but what really got my attention was their opening act Mike Relm. i have never seen any one use a dvd turntable in such a manner. he took everything i know and love about motioin pictures and made them wobble back and forth while making cool scratch sounds. i dont think anyone has seen an o face like this before. he also mixes The Outfield with NWA, WTF does he think he is.

Relm and Josie With Attidude

Ladyhawke Rocks My Socks!!

New Zealand knows their shizz. First Flight of the Conchords comes out and turns my world upside down with hilarity and now this bird-lady-person throws down some crazy good old-fashioned pop. Hailing from Wellington (same as Bret) Ladyhawke proves that you don't need an actual CD, or EP for that matter, to make some good musics. Her ballad "Paris is Burning" harkens to drunken tomfoolery in the city of lights that everone can either relate to or dream of.. but if a bottle of vino and a plane to Paris isn't in the cards for you right now, at least you have something to dance to... Ladyhawke.

Ladyhawke - Paris is Burning

Who is Rhymefest??

I like Michael Jackson. Say what you will about his nose(s) and the whole Jesus Juice thing, his music is good. And as it turns out I'm not the only one who thinks this. Chicago rapper Rhymefest, best known for his work co-writing Kanye West's "Jesus Walks", throws down an entire MJ tribute album enititled "Man in the Mirror: The Michael Jackson Tribute Album". For the beats he enlists Mark Ronson who does his best Kanye impression with an MJ soul sample on every track.  Top that off with guest spots by rappers like Ghostface Killah, Talib Kweli and Wale. as well as the apt rapping skills of Rhymefest himself (so thats how kanye learned how to rhyme for one song!!) you get a fun album full of  MJ nostalgia as well as some pretty good songs. The whole album is free to download or just listen off of Rhymefest's website (see link below) and ive posted one of my personal fav tracks here as well...

Bloggin Time!!!/ Ghosthustler is rad

Hey there... Thanks for checking out the new spot me and ronte are throwing together. We're looking to spread the word about music we think is cool and other tight shit in general.  Soooo here goes nothing.....

                                              

As the title of this post implies, Ghosthustler is RAD. Really rad. You can't hate on heavy synth beats, and when you mix that with vocals ranging from soulful disco to disorganized psuedo-punk yelling you always get a win. This track is no more than three weeks old and is claimed to be in demo state but ballin nonetheless. Anywho the music speaks for itself....

Ghosthustler - Only Me To Trust (Demo Version)

PS: The homies over at The Hood Internet did a pretty money mash-up of Ghosthustler's "Parking Lot Nights" with Rick Ross' "Hustling". peep the link below

avalanches are pretty tight
