RE:GENERATION | Mark Ronson | Erykah Badu | Mos Def | Trombone Shorty In short RE:GENERATION is a documentary who's concept is to take certain musical artists and pair them up with other artists of other genres who they may not ever get a chance to work with throughout their career. In this episode we combine Mark Ronson + Erykah Badu + Mos Def with Trombone Shorty + Zigaboo Modeliste + Members of The Dap Kings. I look forward to more clips being released on youtube [...]
2012 brings the advent of all those insanely amazing collaborations we saw forming last year. One of them being Mark Ronson working with Erykah Badu and Yasiin Bey (more commonly known as Mos Def ) to produce this deliciously full-bodied track called "A La Modeliste." Uptempo trombone and drum beats provided by none other than Trombone Shorty , Zigaboo Modelist and key members of The Dap Kings give the song a sweet kick. Filmed both in studio and at New Orlean's venerable Preservation Hall , the song is part of Hyundai's RE:GENERATION [...]

Photos by G. Sharon Jones Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings concluded a 7 night run in New York with a sold out show at Manhattan's Bowery Ballroom on December 14, 2011. If you don't know Sharon Jones' music and/or stage presence, you are missing out! She is one funky soul sister whose sound could loosely be described as Patti LaBelle meets James Brown! She runs a tight band and the Dap Kings are so funky! From the second Sharon Jones hit the stage, she didn't just [...]

The most gangster shit in the world is to know what's going on. ~ Immortal Technique A La Modeliste - Mark Ronson feat Erykah Badu, Mos Def, Trombone Shorty, Zigaboo Modeliste and the Dap-Kings - Damn! What a motley assortment on this jammer. This track is part of the Re:GENERATION project that we discussed yesterday. If these two songs (this and yesterday's Primo/Nas/Orchestra) are any indication of the quality we can expect from Re:Generation I'm SOUPED and you should be too. via [...]

Last night we posted Nas & DJ Premier 's contribution to the RE:GENERATION documentary, today we've got Mark Ronson, Erykah Badu and Yasiin Bey Mos Def backed by Trombone Shorty, the Dap-Kings and drummer Zigaboo Modeliste on "A La Modeliste." Our homey Bando's office has been editing the RE:GENERATION documentary, so we've been hearing about these collaborations for a while, great to finally have them. drink the kool aid:
"I like to say this is the first new Doors track of the 21st century." - Ray Manzarek. I beg your pardon? Listen, I know that artists these days are trying to do whatever it takes to keep their music fresh for younger listeners even if that means completely changing their sound. Also, Ray Manzarek is a bit of a crazy bastard. But the statement made by the former Doors keyboardist to Rolling Stone regarding a forthcoming song done with dubstep producer Skrillex will definitely have people scratching [...]
Skrillex is a dubstep producer, often called the Justin Bieber of his genre (in that he's hugely popular and has the body of a 17-year-old boy). The Doors are a legendary rock group from the '60s that made rock music dark and sexy. These two acts have absolutely no reason to ever be mentioned together in the same sentence, yet alone collaborate on music. But that's just what director Amir Bar Lev ( The Pat Tillman Story , My Child Can Paint That ) did for his new film, RE:GENERATION . The film features [...]

I haven't posted much on this blog in quite awhile so I'm going to add photos of some old concerts I've shot until I catch up. First up is Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings who I highly recommend for their high energy and great vocals.
Stone Rollin' , the fourth studio album from Raphael Saadiq, continues where his 2008 effort, The Way I See It , left off in that it's a deeper exploration of his musical influences. While his previous effort focused on the heyday of Motown, Stone Rollin' is more of an eclectic mix of sounds - rock n' roll, R&B, soul & pop - that have all helped to define an era. Saadiq's latest fare takes great risk in continuing along a similar musical path, but after the first listen, there's no denying the quality and level of [...]

"When Charles (Bradley) came to that (first) rehearsal and Gabe (Roth) introduced us to each other 8 or 9 years ago, I think that it was a really small group, it was like a 4-piece group. And I think we all kinda got the chills when Charles grabbed the mic and started singing. It's pretty chilling the first time you hear him sing, it's unbelievable. We had never heard anything close to that in-person. We'd listened to all these records from the '60s, and all [...]
