The ROAR (@iamtheroar) – Smells Like Teen Cinema

Feb 3, 12:54pm Boom Boom Chik

Our boy TheROAR has singlehandedly brought "sMashup" into BoomBoomChik's lexicon and he's been going hard with them since last summer. This latest installment brings two FAVES - Nirvana and SKRILLEX - into one. Best thing about TheROAR's sMashups - he rearranges, re-records, performs and sings the songs in a studio. Not your average person just mashing up a song on a laptop! Here's "Smells Like Teen Cinema":

Die Antwoord – I Fink U Freaky

Jan 31, 3:10pm Boom Boom Chik

Here's a jam that I can't stop listening to - Die Antwoord 's "I Fink U Freaky", off of their upcoming album Ten$ion. Yo-Landi Vi$$er's purr-like, almost creepy vocals - "I fink u freaky/And I like you a lot" - paired with the video game-like synths make for one catchy record. Looking forward to hearing what South Africa's musical export has in store for us next!

Jessie Ware (@Jessie_Ware) – Strangest Feeling

Oct 12, 2011, 9:48am Boom Boom Chik

Today, one of my friends tweeted me Jessie Ware and Sampha's video, "Valentine", which is absolutely gorgeous. Her take on electronic, R&B/soul infused music reminds me, vaguely, of Jesse Boykins III in its unabashed, fearless, and imperfect beauty (talk about a mouthful). It doesn't do too much or try too hard, qualities I appreciate beyond measure especially today, where tightly wound and perfect songs are the norms, the products of high-grade sound engineering and production value. But enough about that - Ware's voice is beautiful, subtle and carries a lot of emotion. Other artists she vaguely reminds [...]
