By all measures, this is the year of El-P . First he produced Killer Mike's world-stomping new record R.A.P. Music ; then he released Cancer For Cure , a fantastic album in its own right; and now he's on the road headlining an incredible tour with Killer Mike, Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire and Despot. The man is taking names, and this tour is a coming out party. But not just for El-P. Killer Mike is finally starting to get the respect he deserves thanks to R.A.P. Music , eXquire is riding high on the strength of [...]

When did Jada Pinkett-Smith become such a strong actress? Her TNT series Hawthorne was cancelled last year after three seasons, but like a number of defunct U.S. and UK shows (including Must Be the Music , a British TV star search that might be more suspenseful had it not originally aired way back in 2010), it's still in rotation on Thailand's Sony channel, where it's now in its final season, and which only just finished airing the Desperate Housewives season in which Edie Britt was killed off.

Si escucharon la versión original, podrán recordar lo bailable que era esta canción. Básicamente, lo que hizo Rustie fue duplicar la esencia para el dancefloor del track, dejándola lista para sonar en cualquier club / antro / paraíso de la fiesta. Seguramente SebastiAn y Mayer Hawthorne van a estar felices de la vida con la versión de " Love In Motion " del escocés.

Mayer Hawthorne Centro Cultural Amanda, Santiago Martes 31 enero de 2012 Mayer Hawthorne, el alter ego de Andrew Cohen, quiere por sobre todo complacer. Lo quiere tanto, que parece imposible que Hawthorne no sea más que un pseudónimo para un tipo algo flacuchento de Detroit. Hawthorne, el personaje y la banda, es una proyección de la argamasa de influencias soul que van desde el upbeat más cándido de los Four Tops, la vocación masiva y elegante de Hall & Oates y hasta pequeños guiños a Prince circa “1999.” [...]

Como les habíamos contado , hoy es el esperado reencuentro del soulman Mayer Hawthorne con el público chileno. Tras tocar el año verano pasado en nuestro país (reseña aquí ), el de Los Angeles esta vez viene a presentar How do you do (2011), su nuevo trabajo discográfico, sucesor del exitoso A strange arrangement , publicado en 2009. Hawthorne está en plena gira de promoción de su nuevo álbum, que apenas concluido su show en Chile lo llevará a presentarse en Brasil (2 y 3 de febrero) y más tarde en Nueva Zelanda [...]

Ayer comenzó la venta de los tickets para el retorno a nuestro país del crooner blanco Mayer Hawthorne. El cantante nos visitó el verano pasado , en plena efervescencia de su exitoso A strange arrangement (Stones Throw, 2009), debut que lo llevó a lo más alto del revival soul. Hawthorne vuelve a Chile con un nuevo disco bajo el brazo: How do you do , otra muestra de soul y pop con claros guiños al pasado glorioso del soul, sin duda el género que le quita el sueño al de Detroit. El [...]

El soulman blanco Mayer Hawthorne, que visitó nuestro país en enero pasado, este año publicó How do you do , tibio sucesor del mejor A strange arrangement , debut con el que sorprendió en 2009, por traer de vuelta los más clásicos y ligeros sonidos del soul. Hawthorne acaba de lanzar el video de "Dreaming", un caramelo de pop y soul vintage, lleno de colores e inquietos muñecos que interpretan el tema, uno de los mejores del álbum. El video fue dirigido por Ross Harris y puedes verlo a continuación.

• Peter Bjorn and John - Dig A Little Deeper (Mayer Hawthorne Rmx)

After demonstrating his creativity with reworks while working closely with Chromeo on their remix EP, Mayer Hawthorne once again channels those skills to create a nice little remix of Peter Bjorn and John 's "Dig A Little Deeper" off of the Swedes' most recent album, Gimme Some . While more often than not the word "remix" may evoke thoughts of heavy bass and stabbing synths, Hawthorne looks towards the Motown sound for inspiration. Stream the sunny gem of a remix below.

We've got to hand it to the folks in Detroit. When fans found out that Canadian rockers Nickelback were set to perform at Ford Field during halftime of the Detroit Lions' annual Thanksgiving Day game, they were none too happy, especially given the city's rich musical history. In fact, one fan started an online petition , which received over 52,000 signatures, to have them replaced. While there are any number of more appropriate acts that deserve the spot, if the Lions wanted to go with a contemporary act that has a sound that is rooted in Motown, they could [...]

Photo by G. Mayer Hawthorne and Geoffrey Dicker Mayer Hawthorne!  The blue-eyed soul singer is great!  His latest album "How Do You Do" has songs that would not be out of place on a Temptations record!  Love that.  I met Mayer recently and he was very nice.  One of his handlers was adamant about him not signing autographs in blue sharpie which I thought was a little strange, but what can you do?  Apparently on ebay, blue sharpie is the pen of choice, so a lot of people [...]

The dude Mayer Hawthorne takes PB&J all the way back 1970 on this new remix for "Dig a Little Deeper". It's a jangly, well-harmonized joint that would be right at home smack in the middle of an all-request triple play on your local Oldies station.

From the start of the heavily Motown influenced Get to Know You the listener is pulled into the sing-song story-telling of Hawthorne’s easy, smooth voice. Over the course of the album he moves from low, velvet tones to an edgy falsetto with many stops in between. read more

Photos from the Mayer Hawthorne & Chromeo show in Boston last week...

The long-running Chromeo-headed "When the Night Falls" tour rolled into House of Blues, Boston this past Tuesday. A near capacity crowd enjoyed a good three hours of ok to great music from electro party duo Chromeo, Detroit soul singer Mayer Hawthorne, and beats DJ Breakbot. We're big Mayer Hawthorne fans here a b3sci so we were stoked to catch some of his latest material (off his new How Do You Do LP) live. We certainly weren't disappointed in that department. As MH's set straddled the best [...]
