This needs another spin...

bright eyes – "first day of my life"

The Takeover

http://www.bam.org/view.aspx?pid=588

A little Vik Duplaix and King Britt and Budos Band?!
A little Last Dragon and The Warriors and She's Gotta Have It?!
Some Guitar Hero and Ping Pong?!

o:{i'm lovin' BAM right now. (not to take anything from my other fav art complex: The Barbican)}

VMA's

Did somebody pass an old Goldfrapp CD on to Christina Aguilera? (Really, have a quick compare of the new Xtina and the old Alison.) Is electronica R&B the new thing? Don't answer until you've heard the new Solange songs where she's singing over old Boards of Canada tracks.

And...thoughts on the new Kanye? Another victim of the auto -tuner craze?

Now It Can Be Told

Or heard.
Been working on some nostalgia mixes for a reunion with a group of long-term friends who all haven't been in the same place almost since some of these songs were popular. Or at least since we enjoyed going to raves. Anyway, a little rough around the edges, but here's one. Go ahead and download, or give it a moment to load and click play:

Enjoy this trip.

Market Share

This is a brilliantly simple marketing scheme for the new Foreign Exchange album. It previews the mood and the music while conveying the online working process of how the album (and it's predecessor) was created. Best use of the web for a while now!

EDIT: The Cinematic Orchestra's got a little something too! A short film to go with their latest album. Reminiscent of their excellent re-soundtrack to the 1920 Russian film "Man with a Movie Camera".

Fresh P

Shad: The Old Prince Still Lives at Home. "Just vibe with it!"

So clever. Between this and Kanye's "Good Morning", the video is making a comeback!
