I've always wanted to make one of these..... Along with my good buddy Ian Gray (middle) and twin brother Steve (left), we made this Harlem Shake video for my upcoming ride in The Ride To Conquer Cancer . I'm on the right, and yes, my brother and I have the weird ability to balance bikes on our chins. Support me in The Ride To Conquer Cancer , June 8th-9th in Toronto. We ride 100 miles from Toronto to Hamilton, then 100km back the next day. All proceeds go to The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation. My team [...]
2013 es uno de los años más emocionantes en el mundo de la música. Con apenas cuatro meses de vida, hemos sido testigos de regresos titánicos, reuniones emotivas, lanzamientos que pasaran a los libros de récords y a la historia, y extraños fenómenos virales. Es por esto que nos dimos una pausa para voltear hacia atrás y repasar los 10 momentos más relevantes de la música que han forjado este año. Son las noticias que más impacto han tenido en este y muchos medios más, notas que significan el inicio de grandes historias que serán contadas durante muchos años. [...]
No one could have expected the "Harlem Shake" to blow up to the prodigious scale it did - from YouTube virility to the top of the charts. The success of Baauer's ubiquitous single not only spawned a thousand internet spinoffs, it also incurred a lawsuit for copyrighted samples against Mad Decent. Both Hector Delgado and Jayson Musson pressed the label for compensation over the track's use of unlicensed samples. Diplo , as the head of Mad Decent, has come to aid of the label's blossoming trap star, settling the legal dispute with Delgado and Musson and clearing the "Harlem Shake" samples. [...]

A video of an unidentified man falling into a pit of fire while doing the Harlem Shake dance has leaked on the Internet. Apparently, the German man and his friends were filming a "Harlem Shake" video when the dancer tripped and fell backwards into the blazing bonfire. The man was quickly rescued by his friend and appeared to be uninjured.
Baauer's "Harlem Shake" has not quite run its course - anyone who went to Coachella and saw Baauer or Major Lazer can confirm this, judging by the track's seismic response. In light of its undeniable appeal, Cazzette have released their sprawling dubstep bootleg to the ubiquitous trap anthem, layering massive, maniacal synths over the original sample. Cazzette's penchant for the proliferating genre has become increasingly more evident with this heavy rendition of the "Harlem Shake" out today and their trap remix to Avicii's "Alcoholic" dropping in two days.

Not long after releasing catchy gem Technicolor Health in 2009 (stream it at Spotify ), NYC band The Harlem Shakes , broke up . The album didn't break them through to the other side and there were many other life options calling their name. Where are they now? Some of them still make music. We caught up with the group's guitarist Todd Goldstein who now writes, performs and records as ARMS and asked him. "Jose's finishing up grad school, Lexy's a writer, Kendrick has a family, [...]
You may remember the Harlem Shakes (the band, not the meme) from the top of a little list we compiled back in 2009. Well, a lot of people are just now starting to pay attention to this fantastic (though, sadly, defunct) band's twitter account... that is, if "paying attention" means "mistaking it for the official account of some recent internet dance craze". So crazy, these kids! You can read Buzzfeed's rather perfect breakdown of the whole thing RIGHT HERE. If only more people had been reading WiAC back [...]
Mighty Crown "The Far East Rulers" rocked the legendary BB Kings recently, alongside a star studded line up including Morgan Heritage , Beenie Man , Mr. Vegas & more! Mighty Crown leveled the crossover crowd with hit after hit. On more than one occasion, Mighty Crown brought the ram crossover crowd to a roar. Crown's entire set went over well, but it was the moment that Sami T performed the Harlem Shake that the revelers went into a true frenzy! [...]
I think it's safe to say that the Harlem Shake phase is starting to die down. I have mixed feelings on this. Some of the videos are extremely creative, like Matt and Kim's edition, and some are just plain hilarious like the washing machine edition . This chapter in our culture's life seems to be closing, so shed a tear, throw a party, deal with it however you see fit. Anyways, the top-tier music producer Just Blaze and Baauer were recently on tour together. Back in late January, the two released [...]
When the producer responsible for the year's biggest viral sensation remixes a BBC Sound of 2013 winner, it's pretty much required listening. Stream "Harlem Shake" mastermind Baauer 's take on AlunaGeorge 's "Attracting Flies" below. STREAM: AlunaGeorge - "Attracting Flies (Baauer Remix)"
The formula is simple for AlunaGeorge. Write a great song and let it explode all over the internet. Next, take one of the bigger DJ/producers out there, have them remix the song and create even more buzz. Earlier it was Hudson Mohawke, now it's "Harlem Shake" creator Baauer. The math is simple people, just enjoy. By Brian Litwin AlunaGeorge ( Official ) Baauer : ( Soundcloud ) Rating 8.2

Musicians like Hector Delgado and Jayson Musson were surprised to receive phone calls from management and former collaborators informing them that their voices could be heard on the viral hit "Harlem Shake"--neither of them had given permission for the song's creator, Baauer, to use samples of their songs. So they're suing Mad Decent Records, according to the New York Times. read more
