It's that time again and without further a do, here is this week interview: Question 1: What's the name of your band? What's the origin of that name? Have you changed the band's name before? A: Well, it's pretty obvious with me, William's my name. Did go by "B and P Music" for a bit, when I was still in collaboration with my old friend and guitarist, Paul Philips. But we have since parted company. We played in bands together from the early 70's, with band names like "S.R.O.", "Astoria", "Fractured Fantasy", and [...]
![Will.I.Am Gets Hands On With Technology [Where Is The Love?]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1299292_lg.jpg)
What's Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.I.Am up to when he's not thinking about how his solo album stiffed at stores ( hate to say I told you so ) or working on another song about how dreamy Barack Obama is? He's got at least two things up his sleeve, and after the jump we present them both in an easy-to-digest form. First, he's jumping on Nokia's sinking ship called Comes With Music, even though the service seems a bit problematic : "We need a different type of digital store... iTunes [...]

La estrella de los Black Eyed Peas Will.I.Am ha pedido a los fans de Michael sean pacientes para el lanzamiento del nuevo álbum del cantante ya que él ha estado trabajando con Jackson en el disco y dijo que el cantante tiene un ritmo diferente a otros músicos. "Michael Jackson tiene un ritmo diferente y tu no puedes poner Michael Jackson en esa categoría, especialmente cuando muchos artistas se han inspirado en Michael Jackson. "Así que Michael Jackson [...]

Pic - Hobogestapo I'd have to tend to agree with WOW that Rod Stewart is a sexy mutha fucker. Also had a listen and can't believe just how well Solly pulls it off.... yes we love Solly's nuts!! If you have no clue what I am talking about click here or scroll down. I was equally suprised how these two came together but Will I Am's track 'The Donque Song' has somehow managed to catch the attention of 'put your hands up' fame Fedde Le Grande [...]
Cominciamo un ciclo di post dedicato a Hit Mania Dance Estate 2008 , ripercorrendo i brani più caldi che ci hanno fatto ballare in questa lunga estate di musica. Partiamo da Funky Bahia, brano trascinante realizzato da Sergio Mendes , il famoso cantante brasiliano di " Mas que Nada " (e non solo, ovviamente). Il brano originale è contenuto nell'ultimo album dell'artista uscito lo scorso marzo dal titolo "Encanto". Il pezzo è in collaborazione con Will.i.am dei Black Eyed Peas e di Siedah Garrettdi, cantante r'n'b statunitense. Ci guardiamo il video [...]
Got an ass load of Mp3s through the e-mail today, some of these are sorta old but they are new to me so I though I'd share with the loyal readers. Terrible hook, ok beat but pretty solid verses from CL Smooth: CL Smooth Ft. Gage – Sorry For The Hurtin Omar Cruz, a ML Hollers @ subject , over a nice breezy beat. Diggin this track with Frankie J doing his best Justin Timberlake impression. Omar Cruz Ft. Frankie J – To The Top [...]

La sfida tra i due candidati più forti alle prossime elezioni americane si misura anche in musica. Barack Obama e John McCain hanno comunicato le proprie top-ten del cuore, le canzoni a cui sono più legati. Anche da queste indicazioni si possono riconoscere differenze di stile e di mentalità, non trovate? L'unico artista che li accomuna è Frank Sinatra , per il resto le scelte sono molto diversificate. Con qualche sorpresa: l'avreste mai detto che il più anziano conservatore impazzisce per gli Abba , di cui indica ben due pezzi? E che il giovane democratico ha [...]

This first remix turns Cansei de Ser Sexy's (CSS) [...]

A new feature has arisen! In Meritorious Defense Of... will be a weekly (or so) post dedicated to showing love and support for a particular track(s) that would otherwise have me deny I know anything by said artist. The songs don't neccessarily have to be new, just something slightly better than the worst offered. For example: looking on your iPod you notice the artist Leona Lewis. And you think to yourself, why would I have her on here...I hate Bleeding Love ?!? And then you remember, "Hmm, I WAS getting down [...]

Now how did i Just how did I become that kind of guy To look at girl and lie right in the eye Heartbreaker by Will.i.am ft Cheryl Cole watch music video watcha think? Download: Heartbreaker

Think i must have an aversion to bands with 'Hoof' in their name. Was very slow on the uptake with Deerhoof, now i've gone & missed the boat with Chrome Hoof . Which means i've been missing out on progdisco anthems like 'Tonyte' for far too long. Time to put that right.. Chrome Hoof- Tonyte (Z Share) (YSI) Been re-visiting the James Murphy/Pat Mahoney fabric CD this week. Disco always sounds good with the sun on your back. From the mix here's Donald Byrd's classic 'Love has come Around'. [...]
I love robots. Anytime a music group decides to throw in the vocoder or talk box into a song, it ranks three points higher in my book. My favorite is when a rock band adds a robot to the band's line-up. As robots have been synonymous with ...
I'd really like to see the whole movie performed like this: J: My pardon; did I break thy concentration? Continue! Ah, but now thy tongue is still. Allow me then to offer a response. Describe Marsellus Wallace to me, pray. B: What? J: What country dost thou hail from? B: What? J: How passing strange, for I have traveled far, And never have I heard tell of this What. What language speak they in the land of What? B: What? J: The Queen's own English, base knave, dost [...]
My name is Lil Mike & I'm a music junkie... I acquire, listen to, and take in a lot of music, and over the years I have no idea how much I've spent on this habit. I've spent whole days on my knees in record stores, digging in crates,... visit for more mp3's & random revelations
Gary Gygax passed away on Wednesday. I never did that much D&D to be fair, but if it hadn't been for the stream of pen & paper Roleplaying games that his work inspired, and which I played the shit of (MERP, Call of Cthulhu, Runequest, Cyberpunk, Star Wars, Traveller and ...

Williams - Love on a real train (Williams odyssey mix) [Love triangle, 2008] ( d/l ) Williams puts the moves on us with his splendid take on Tangerine Dream's Love on a real train. Intertwining bass and melody with crafty 4/4 drums, we have ourself a dream like winner. Stunning. James T. Cotton - The second night cycle (feat. Ellis Monk) [Spectral, 2008] ( d/l ) Contrasting the previous precious tune with some straight up acid wonkyness. Cool album called [...]

British singer Estelle is the newest darling of America's hip hop elite. Her new U.S. single not only features Kanye West, but the song is also entirely based on will.i.am's " Impatient" that is featured on his 2007 solo album "Songs About Girls." No wonder that will.i.am is listed as an executive producer of Estelle's forthcoming album "Shine," which will be released on John Legends' Homeschool Records. Legend is, of course, good pals with Kanye West who signed him to his G.O.O.D label. And with that the story of Estelle's debut [...]
