Sure, we're calling this mixtape the sell-out mixtape. Why? Because all of the songs on it are songs featured in at least one popular commercial. However, I don't think any of these bands have sold out. Who's to say that sharing your music through another mode of transport is selling out? Even if they are making boat loads of money doing it. Here's the way I look at it, if my friend is a starving artist, waiting tables to pay the bills while striving to become a movie director perhaps, and someone comes along willing to pay him for his [...]
Pusha Ton bizarrely decides to pen a verse for foxy English pop strumpet Pixie Lott . Then again, didn't he debut alongside his bruv and Justin Timberlake ? Ueegghh!
I first heard Lupe Fiasco rap when he appeared on Kanye West's "Touch The Sky" in 2005. I didn't know what to make of the young rapper interrupting a brilliant song by one of my favorite musicians. His verse didn't have much of an impact on me, as I was unwilling to engage with his [...]

Only a generation ago, it was career suicide for a band to allow one of their songs to appear in a commercial. These days? Not so much. Once upon a time, the careers of two highly respected, hard working underground bands, the Long Ryders and the Del Fuegos, were destroyed by one decision. Their offense? They did a commercial for Miller Beer. It's hard to believe nowadays, in an age where scoring a commercial is a potential career-maker. It certainly doesn't send bands' fans into a debate over whether it equates to "selling out". But back in the mid-'80s [...]
Fresh out of Dillon Francis's beat lab is his new remix of the UK producer Kissy Sellout's Turn It On . The Moombahton elements he adds to this track are so perfectly layered and timed perfectly. He throws in a few high energy vocal samples to get you singing a long a bit. Dillon's build up snyth which is a bubbly, squeaky, and anticipates right to a upbeat Dutch horn that will get you to heading out to the Mad Decent Block Party next Saturday. [...]

News According to Metro, METALLICA's July 14 concert on the Garrison Grounds in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada is heading towards a sellout.
In real life I work for a company that launched a new advertising campaign last year. The commercials supposedly have led to more business but the jury is still out on the creative around the campaign. I can't imagine the way THIS commercial was pitched to Woolite. Check out this Rob Zombie -directed commercial.
We sometimes wonder what the average number of records released in NYC per year is... does this city produce 5-10 records per day? We think it does, and it's The Deli's duty to cover as many of them as possible. Soooo... to meet this challenge we are using this blog entry to briefly mention a series of up and coming NYC artists who are about to release a new album. Electronic combo The Qualia (pictured) play catchy pop that sits somewhere between Wall of Voodo, New Order and The New [...]

Es ist ja nun nicht so, dass ich mich häufig gen Hermannplatz verirre. Meistens achte ich penibel darauf, dass ich maximal in den bereits vollständig gentrifizierten Teilen Neuköllns knapp südlich des Landwehrkanals meine Runden drehe. Dort treffe ich öfter mal den ein oder anderen aus gemeinsamen Tagen im Zentrum Berlins. Es ist auch schön hier, das Bier ist das gleiche wie damals, die Hosen auch, bisschen weniger Rave, mehr graugetöntes Understatement. Das einzige aber, was mir am Hermi weiter südlich heimatlich vorkommt, sind Hamy, McDo und Karstadt. Das geht. Sowas gab es selbst in Bottrop – [...]
