Ostatniej nocy nie miałem ochoty oglądać meczu Utah - San Antonio i z nudów zrobiłem ten blend. Mam nadzieję, że Allah mi wybaczy, zresztą wszystkiemu winni są i tak Mormoni, Teksańczycy, Tim Duncan, Kirilenko i Kyrylo Fesenko. Z drugiej strony, wiem, że ten blog odwiedza wielu djów, dla których ów blend mógłby okazać się pomocny. Sam zamierzam zagrać go jutro w Ministerstwie. Douster vs Dj Nito
Podczas kolejnej edycji DROP IT nastąpi re-aktywacja polsko-niemieckiego duetu ROTÖR CRÜE! J-BOUNCE (ROTÖR CRÜE, Niemcy) - czyli Paul Steyr wie jak muzycznie i stylowo połączyć klasykę z ekstrawagancją. Jako Dj turntablista pokazał światu jak oryginalnie i równo można wykonywać beatjuggling, a jako dj klubowy udowadnia, że można przenieść wyjątkowe umiejętności turntablistyczne na salę taneczną i zmiksować ją z szerokim wachlarzem ponadczasowej muzyki, od hip-hopu, przez rock, elektro i wiele innych rodzajów muzycznych w niesamowitym: "Lordz of Fitness Mash Up Style". J-Bounce zaczął swoja karierę dja w młodym wieku, kiedy miał zaledwie czternaście lat. Szybko [...]
Baltimore hustler, Rye Rye, was supposed to release her debut album sixth months ago, but in true Kid Sister style, it's been delayed until god knows when. Co-produced by ya boy Blaqstarr and wonder woman, MIA, the album may feature a track entitled Witch Doctor. Alongside rappers, Million $ Mano and Mic Terror, Rye Rye actually sings a sweet story bout her dealer - weed is so casual to you Americans. A draft tracklist of what was once called, Go Pop Bang, has also surfaced... This tracklisting is completely uncomfirmed - just [...]
I apologize for my online absence - but there's some good stuff coming - I promise. That includes this selection of three noteworthy new artists of course: Sleep Whale - After a beautiful debut EP and an equally strong full-length both released this year, it was clear to me that Sleep Whale (originally known as Mom) were a band worthy of mention here. The (almost) entirely instrumental Little Brite EP (first released in 07) showed a band that could build gorgeous soundscapes [...]
Some DVD and CD reviews coming your way soon, but today it's a pre-holiday cleanup of things that have been cluttering up my desk, my email, and my mind. Another NYC show that sounds amazing: Fire + Fire / Black + Gypsy: The Sounds and Stories of Two Cultures Bound by Rhythm and Race at Symphony Space Nov. 19 and Nov. 21. Day of Show: $35 / Advance: $30 / Symphony Space Members: $25 As part of the yearlong Extremely Hungary festival, [...]
Bang f/ M.I.A. (Skinny Friedman remix) by Rye Rye Here's my remix of Rye Rye and MIA's "Bang," which I never really did anything with or gave out. I like it, although the distorded 808's sound like bootleg dubstep wobbles. I'm putting it out there as a test drive of my new Soundcloud page. Rye Rye f/ MIA - Bang (Skinny Friedman remix) YSI | 320 kbps
The Swedes took over the HOB on Saturday as Swedish indie supergroup Peter, Bjorn & John and El Perro Del Mar took to the stage. I had seen both acts before and both did pretty well in front of what was a pretty sparse HOB crowd, but the show was also not quite mind-blowing either. This was a self-proclaimed 10th anniversary tour from PB&J, but I'm not sure that really added anything to the mix. They hit some high points and had the regular PB&J energy to bring a solid show to the HOB. [...]
De a pocos se van sumando más medios a publicar sus listas con lo mejor de la década, anteriormente revisábamos la lista de la norteamericana Pitchfork con 200 posiciones que escogió como disco de la década a Kid A de Radiohead, ahora es turno de la NME y aunque últimamente ya no tenga la influencia de antes, resulta más que interesante revisar la decisión del staff de la publicación británica. Es conocido el impulso que ha logrado dar la NME a la nueva música británica, no han querido parecer distintos en su lista ya [...]
"Ogni canzone è ancora così eccitante" Intervista ai Girls Ormai è un anno che seguiamo ogni passo dei Girls , da quando siamo stati travolti da quella gioia pura che è Lust For Life . Il loro debutto, Album , è uno dei miei dischi preferiti di questo 2009 ed è quindi con immenso piacere che pubblico qui l'intervista con il cantante Cristopher Owens realizzata per MAPS da Jonathan Clancy, che ringrazio. L'intervista andrà in onda oggi pomeriggio dalle [...]

Tempo di classifiche di fine anno anche per NME , la prestigiosa -e controversa- rivista britannica. Votata dalla redazione e da una selezione di musicisti e addetti ai lavori, arriva la classifica dei 100 migliori album del decennio che sta per finire. Tra i giurati: gli Arctic Monkeys, Carl Barat, i The Killers, Jarvis Cocker, Pete Doherty, gli Elbow, Johnny Marr, gli MGMT, Ian Brown, i The Big Pink, Snoop Dogg, Alan McGee, gli Yeah Yeah Yeahs e molti altri. Qualche sorpresa. Un gruppo inglese (i Libertines ) è stato scalzato dal podio da [...]
This song could've done without Wiz Khalifa and Lady G. Bad Lucc and Kurupt's verses are full of anger and frustration, but Khalifa and G just spit that cutesy quirky wordplay that has plagued 2009. Terrace's beat knocks, but I prefer his funkier, jazzier stuff. Regardless, I'm excited to hear what a full-length Terrace Martin album sounds like. His albums with Kurupt , Bad Lucc and Murs are all MIA. "The Demo" is the first leak off Terrace's solo album of the same name. [...]
Music brag NME has crowned The Strokes' debut album 'This is It' as the best album of the decade. As the naughties come to a close NME (and a long list of music experts) voted for what they thought are the best 100 albums of the decade. With the concluding list spanning artists from Jay-Z to Johnny Cash and a few unexpected ones in between. The New York rockers beat off the likes of Primal Scream's 'XTRMNR' and 'Up The Bracket' by The Libertines to take the holy grail. Mike Skinner must be [...]
Music brag NME has crowned The Strokes' debut album 'This is It' as the best album of the decade. If that isn't enough encouragement for the boys to get cracking with their next album release then I don't know what is. As the naughties come to a close NME (and a long list of music experts) voted for what they thought are the best 100 albums of the decade. With the concluding list spanning artists from Jay-Z to Johnny Cash and a few unexpected ones in between. The New York rockers beat off the [...]
GorillavsBear has a great new single from Baltimore's own Beach House . I wouldn't say i'm a super-fan of their previous albums, but always enjoyed them if the mood was right; that said, this sounds great...something i could (and will) listen to on repeat quite often. Can't wait for the new album to come out (jan. 26th). I've been really digging this band Sleigh Bells (along with the rest of blog-land) and Pretty Much Amazing has a thorough post on them with a good number of MP3's. Think: guitars of Yeah Yeah [...]
Here's the weird thing about the British: In general, they have much better taste in music than Americans. While we waste our time on interchangeable pop stars, they're singing the praises of Gossip's Beth Ditto. But their likes and dislikes are very particular - and, in general, they seem to love the kinds of semi-mainstream/semi-indie bands that become one-hit wonders or just never make a huge splash in the U.S. and then fairly quickly fall out of favor with the music-geek set. For example: NME has just named its #1 album of the '00s... and it's [...]
Pitchfork may have usurped everyone with their best-of-the-decade list, but the floodgates are open now and many other publications are printing their nominations. Today (Nov. 17), the NME has produced a list of the albums they consider to be the best of the decade, and there are very few surprises. The paper was one of the earliest champions of the Strokes when they emerged at the beginning of the decade, and Is This It is their predictable number 1 choice. The list is male dominated and indie-centric—Jay Z's The Blueprint [...]
Yet another list from a UK Music Magazine. NME always prided itself on being the cool UK Magazine, well since it changed its name from New Musical Express , and since Melody Maker disappeared along with Cliff Richard's shadows. So what's their list of the Best albums of the decade like? Keep reading. 50. MIA - Arular 49. Muse - Absolution 48. Walkmen - Bows and Arrows 47. Brendan Benson - Lapalco 46. Delgados - The Great Eastern This list starts so much better than many others. It's great to [...]
Fresco dell'uscita nei negozi dell'album Them Crooked Vultures , l'eclettico Dave Grohl ha rilasciato una succosa intervista a Rolling Stone nella quale si è focalizzato sui suoi tre tatuaggi a tema Led Zeppelin. «Il mio primo tatuaggio l'ho fatto da solo a 16 anni, ed era il simbolo di John Bonham dei Led Zeppelin. Ho provato a utilizzare diversi colori per farlo sembrare una cosa da professionisti, ma sembrava che qualcuno mi avesse spento una sigaretta sull'avambraccio» «Il secondo era un po' più professionale: l'ho fatto in [...]
In un'intervista concessa a Radio Deejay , il conduttore di "Deejay chiama Italia" Nicola Savino ha avuto l'occasione di scambiare quattro chiacchiere con Liam Gallagher (qui ripreso col fratello Noel in una rara foto d'archivio in cui entrambi sono abbastanza sobri da non sentire il bisogno impellente di prendersi simpaticamente a bottigliate in faccia): "Tornerò ad esibirmi dal vivo nel giro di un paio di mesi. Sono appena reduce da un tour, ma mi manca cantare. E mi manca anche il pubblico. Si, io e gli altri membri degli [...]
