Hey Diplo , did you not say back in December that the Express Yourself - EP would be released in January?! Well, that never happened. It's okay though Dip, we know you're a busy man. Oh and by the way, that Valentine's Day gift from you and Usher was suuuuper sweet! Diplo, being the generous dude that he is, has finally released a couple tracks from his 'Express Yourself' - EP as free downloads!! You may recognize the title track from the EP sampler that was released back in December. It features [...]
Download covers of Sufjan Stevens, Pat Benatar, and a bunch more from both Sister Crayon and Bird by Bird.
Tonight's midnight mojo is dedicated to wackier tracks and remixes that have been clinically proven to destroy any dance floor. The term 'wackier' encompasses a number of features of a track in this set, but mainly I'm noticing a few key differences from the average EDM production; structure, genre-crossing, and adventurousness. The last one seems a bit vague, but I'll elaborate later. For now, lets take a look at the first in our strange set of tunes - Yonkers (Lil Silva Remix) - Tyler, the Creator This track was weird without the [...]
New York native, Luca Venezia, aka Drop The Lime, has been throwing out tracks honing in for Trouble & Bass perfecting the unique sounds alongside label mates Udachi and Tomb Crew. You may remember the infamous "Sex Sax" which you can find with other notable tracks from EDC 2011 . A few days ago he gave out another choon to wander around on by The Trashmen. It has "surfin'" in the title, so immediately I was drawn. How painful it has been living so far from the ocean these last few months. The [...]

ALBUM REVIEW: If you're going to name your record Space Jam there is no way of getting around the fact I'll think of Space Balls. Thanks John Candy; but if you made a statement like it's speed amp test that seems to use different flavors of reverb and a bunch of spastic guitar moved it would be a whole other thing. Oh wait! That's my job music fans. While I'm not going to re-name this record by The Trashies they are personified in their name. So where do you go from here? In this experiment you'd [...]
...And we want to be free to kick out the jams It used to be that there was nothing more American than beer, bar-b-ques, Air Conditioners, TVs, car washes, and rock music. You could always count on things that were made proudly in the good ole' U.S.A. We know where this went. However, the one thing though that will always remain true is on this very short playlist is american made rock-n-roll until they figure out how to outsource that shit. Ok with the exception of the U2 track you know what I am getting [...]
When it gets warm here along the Texas gulf coast, it's time to hit the water. Myself, I tend to stick poolside but many of my Lone Star brethren (and sister-en) like to head for the beach, were there is plenty of surfing to be done. I can't tell you for certain if the waves off the Texas coast are good enough for surfing, but I am fairly certain they are nothing like California or Hawaii. My surfing interest faded when I was about 12, when I took a sharp smack on the forehead from a beginner board [...]

Luke McGarry Don't you know about the BIRD?!? Of course you do, you piece of human GARBAGE! EVERYBODY knows about the BIRD! You know all ABOUT it because a band called the Trashmen surfed straight outta the tundra of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and fucking DELIVERED it to you on an irresistible, hormone-heightening vinyl platter sometime around 1962, a date someone needs to tell Dave Markey was the real Year Punk Broke! Virtually every bad-assed lo-fi hi-energy punk with a smirk—from the Novas and Los Saicos [...]
Leave it to the Brits - in an ultimate act of flippin' the bird to Simon Cowell and his ilk, real music fans in the United Kingdom have sent the 1963 rock classic "Surfin' Bird" by the Trashmen to the upper reaches of the U.K. Pop single charts. According to this story in the Los Angeles Times , British music fans wanted to keep the latest assembly-line pop ditty from Cowell's no-talent TV show "The X Factor" from topping the charts this holiday season so they solicited Facebook friends and like-minded [...]
Seguro que recordáis la campaña anti-Factor X en la que indirectamente Rage Against The Machine se vio envuelto. Su canción "Killing In The Name Of" consiguió ser la más descargada de todas las Navidades de 2009 en Reino Unido con un propósito muy claro: que nadie relacionado con el programa de Simon Cowell se hiciese con el puesto número 1. Pues bien, auspiciado por el éxito de la campaña promovida en Facebook , este año el movimiento contra Factor X vuelve con la misma intención. Eso sí, sin la [...]
Più di 400.000 fan di Family Guy (in Italia "I Griffin") si stanno mobilitando con un gruppo Facebook per far sì che la vecchia hit " Surfin Bird " dei The Trashmen si assicuri la posizione numero uno delle classifiche di vendita dei singoli inglesi precedendo quello che sarà il vincitore di X Factor. Surfin' Bird è stata pubblicata nel 1963 ma è divenuta famosa principalmente molti anni dopo per essere stata inserita nella colonna sonora del capolavoro cinematografico Full Metal Jacket. Il brano è stato poi ripreso in un episodio del 2008 [...]
Posted in Rock Have you heard? If I said to you; What were Rage Against The Machine doing last year? You'd have an idea of where I was going with this regarding The Trashmen. The band that turned Rock N Roll upside in 1963 with their release Surfin' Bird. In this current century however, we more so know the track thanks to everyone's friend, Peter Griffin from Family Guy. Another Facebook group - clickable here - has been set up Read more.. [...]
mp3: The Trashmen - Bird Dance Beat mp3: The Trashmen - A-Bone Whether you are aware of it or not, I think almost everyone must know The Trashmen already -- they're the group from Minneapolis that had a mega-hit on their hands in 1963 when they combined two songs by doo woppers The Rivingtons into the immortal party tune, Surfin' Bird. Today's post features their follow up single from 1964, Bird Dance Beat, which follows familiar lines with Dal Winslow's -- acerbic? antagonistic? punk? -- vocals enticing one and all [...]
Seth MacFarlane extrait de Family Guy (Les Griffin) (2008) Il y avait 2 morceaux, composés par The Rivingtons, intitulés Papa-Oom-Maw-Maw et The Bird's The Word . Les Trashmen n'en firent qu'un, intitulé Surfin' Bird . Les Ramones le reprirent. Les Cramps aussi. Peter Griffin en fit une obsession le temps d'un épisode de Family Guy . [...]
The other day I heard someone say that late March-early April is a prime time for surfin' off the Texas coast. Didn't know the Gulf of Mexico had any decent waves to speak of, in fact although I grew up along the upper Gulf Coast I don't know a thing about surfing. Would that make me a ho-dad? Well, I do know this: the best surf music came out in the early 1960s. So while our wave-riding bros are down in Galveston and Corpus waiting to hang ten on the right wave, here are some surfin' (and car [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , New Music , Exclusive Brian Ritchie's foray into instrumental surf music began with a mysterious phone call from Midnight Oil 's management. "Brian, get on a plane to Sydney," he was told. "The Oils want to jam." Ritchie, having known the Oils since touring with them as a member of the Violent Femmes in the '80s, didn't need convincing. Even though he had no idea what they had in mind -- without front man Peter Garrett, [...]
