DISCO, DISCO, DISCO.. DISCO!

Hey guys! Been extremely slack because of tests and shit but finally here with some new joints to get your study on. Dizzee premiered this track on Radio 1 the other day, which will be on the re-release of Tongue N Cheek that he’s preparing. For now we only have the radio rip of “Dirtee Disco”, albeit an ok quality one – the official track will be out on the 24th! I can see a few Dizzee fans not liking this one, as the title suggests has Dizzee rapping over a disco beat and features vocalist Daniel Pearce, but im partial to some good disco!

Dizzee Rascal – Dirtee Disco

The first official track from Robyn’s upcoming “Body Talk” has finally been revealed, with three tracks already up for offer on various digital sites. “Dancing On My Own” changes it up from the last few releases “Dancehall Queen”, “Fembot” and “None of Dem”, where she dominates the dancefloor, talks up her automatic booty applications and brags about how none of “dem” get her sex or move her intellect. Instead, the new release sees her alone on the dancefloor questioning “Does she love you better than I can?”, and has also been referred to as a “With Every Heartbeat 2″.

Also just copped this refix of our favourite fictional cartoon artist, Maaajor Lazer. “When You Hear The Bassline” is one of those infectious tracks that hit you when you least expect, much like this remix by Rizzla.

Major Lazer – When You Hear The Bassline (Rizzla’s Cunty Refix)

Major Lazer – Keep It Going Louder (DZ Remix)

Chaos In The CBD are at the forefront of production when it comes to electronic music in NZ, already having produced many well received originals and scoring gigs all over AKL. The boys had to say about their latest track “Bong Song” – “We just made a funky type of thing using Sisqo’s ‘Thong Song. It’s just a bit of fun so don’t bother hating… If you cant handle the vocals then we’ve made a dub for you too!”

And as usual heres some other tracks to tickle your eardrums!

Drake – Over (Cassian Remake)

Passion Pit – Folds In Your Hands (Keljet Remix)

Marina & The Diamonds – I Am Not A Robot (Doorly Remix)

Rich Hil feat. Kid CuDi – EPS

LAZY SUNDAY LIST

Wow just noticed that I’ve got a truckload of stuff sitting here for you guys that I’ve forgotten to post so hope you dont mind a massive drop!

Couldnt miss out this huge track from Rusko, given away for free on Mad Decent! Been getting some airplay for awhile now but i don’t say no to anything free.

Rusko – Da Cali Anthem

Yep, more Rude Boy remixes. I’m particularly liking the Low Sunday Edit of this Ri Ri track, mixing up the vocals and with a mix of deep synths, keeping a part of the dancehall vibe she has going on.

Rihanna – Rude Boy (Low Sunday Radio Edit)

Rihanna – Rude Boy (Cosmic Dawn Remix)

Also picked up a new remix of an old favourite, Passion Pits “Sleepyhead”. The remix from Cassette Club is a stripped down version of the original, with the vocals kept minimal that allows the track to transform from electro-pop to chillwave in an instant.One of the best Sleepyhead remixes I’ve heard!

Passion Pit – Sleepyhead (Cassette Club Remix)

Also with a chillwave vibe comes “Lovelife”, which is no surprise considering he used to rub shoulders with Neon Indian – the two were in a previous band together called “Ghosthustler”. The track “Jimmy’s” is full of dreamy dark synths and weary vocals perfect for a lazy sunday.

Lovelife – Jimmys

Neon Indian – Deadbeat Summer (Skeet Skeet’s Funky Edit)

And as usual a few other treats to pick at!

The xx – Crystalised (Eric Solomon Remix)

Vampire Weekend – Ottoman (Redlight Remix)

Crookers feat. Yelle – Cooler Couleur (Junkie XL Remix)

N.A.S.A. – Gifted (Flirtphonic Remix)

Timbaland feat. Justin Timberlake – Carry Out (Vindata Electro Remix)

David Guetta – Memories (Donae’o Remix)

Miike Snow – Silvia (Felix Da Housecat Remix)

KiD CuDi feat MGMT – Pursuit of Happiness (Slink’s Hangover Remix)

Snoop Dogg feat. Kid CuDi – That Tree (The Soundmen Remix)

CAN’T FORGET THAT TREE

Diplo sure is bringing the heat, last week we posted the track he produced with Robyn called “No Hassle” bringing the dancehall vibe, now he’s collab’d with Snoop Dogg & Kid CuDi on the track “That Tree”. It’s a laidback jam but definately has the characteristics of a Diplo production, and will appear on Snoops album “More Malice” out on the 23rd of next month!!

Snoop Dogg feat. Kid CuDi – That Tree

I also picked up this dubstep rework of Steve Aoki’s “Pursuit of Happiness” remix by The Killabits. Cudder has just wrapped up touring with the Good Vibrations festival around Australia.. unfortunately didnt make it down to NZ before heading back to the US BUT half of Cassette did manage to catch him at Good Vibes in the GC, good shit!

Kid CuDi – Pursuit of Happiness (Steve Aoki Remix The Killabits Re-Work)

The cartoon musical machination of Diplo & Switch, aka Major Lazer will also be kicking their spring tour “Lazers Never Die” and will be touring around North America, check their myspace for dates

Major Lazer – Bruk Out (Remix by Destructo and Uberzone)

… aaand just for fun

Dan Black feat. Kid CuDi – Symphonies (Dada Life Remix)

MEMORIES VIDEO/REMIXES & MORE..

Our favourite “One Love” wonder has now been graced with an official video release, featuring Kid CuDi wandering the streets of Miami and in a packed out club. CuDi won’t be short of work any time soon, starring in the HBO series “How To Make It In America” which is airing in the US on the 14th of Feb, HBO streamed it for free on youtube here for those of you able to watch it (only available in the US) and I’m fairly sure it will show up somewhere soon..

HERE IT COMES, MARCHIN IN

Swedish duo Lo-Fi-Fnk have put out the first song since their debut album “Boylife” released in 2006, which much like this track had alot of people raving. “Marchin In” is the first to surface from their latest album (release date unknown) follows the bands vision to create a lo-fi, funky kind of dance music, leaving your head nodding and toes tapping along to the synth-laden number. The video was produced by Mattias Erik Johansson and Isak Martinsson and features an adventure into the deep sea. If you havn’t caught any Lo-Fi-Fnk yet I’ve included some tracks below!

Usually im not one for mashups but came across this one by Objektiv One this week and got a pleasant surprise. It comes off a mashup EP by the producer which features artists along the lines of Drake, Cassidy & Rick Ross alongside alternative artists Spoon, Belle & Sebastian and Washed Out, which in real life would make one hell of an interesting party. You can download the whole EP here but for the meantime I’ll leave you with the one that caught my ears..

It was a week ago that BBC revealed the BBC Sound of 2010 longlist, which highlights the best new music for the coming year. There are 15 acts chosen, with the top 5 being featured on BBC – last years winner was Little Boots, among such other nominees such as La Roux, Lady GaGa, Temper Trap, Passion Pit, KiD CuDi etc. So its fair to say BBC has its ear on the pulse. Everything Everything is one of the chosen 15 for this years Sound of 2010 as well as Owl City, Ellie Goulding, Delphic, Marina & The Diamonds. They’re a British group well known for their take on pop music, defying genres and stretching the boundaries with complexities and tying it all up with dreamy vocals. Check out their myspace for more.

KiD CuDi is the closest thing I get to listening to hip-hop at the moment. Sad but true. “Pursuit of Happiness” will be a defining song in the compilation of roadtrip tracks (coming soon), and many have tried (and mostly failed) to produce a remix of the whimsical track. Heres another to ponder over:

I DONT LIKE YOUR BAND

After an unfortunate long run of unwelcome leaks and rescheduled release dates, Annie will finally be dropping her new album “Dont Stop” on November the 17th! “I Dont Like Your Band” is the latest offering from Annie taken from the album, its cheeky and cheerful – ringing thoughts about somebody’s music she doesn’t care much for “Dont get me wrong, I like you – but I dont like your band”. The beat reflects this also, you’ll fast be bopping along to this bouncy track!

Santigold has been on heavy rotate on my Ipod since I discovered her self titled album a while back, since then anything and everything Santigold puts her name to has been gold in my eyes. She has been performing this track with N.E.R.D for awhile now and nows its out for all on track! Santi and N.E.R.D’s tendancy to mix things up abit is perfectly complimentary in “Soldier”, sounding like a ska- infused- big beat- borderline- drum- n- bass mastermash.

Not sure if I like the vibe on this one, to me this track is more suited to a comedown than the crazed raver impression that Benny Bennassi gives it, nevertheless I do like the dreamlike ambience mid-song.

HIP-HOP, DONT STOP

Been abit absent on the hiphop/indie/pop scene recently BUT my Beats by Dre arrived on my doorstep today, instilling some magic in my deteriorated eardrums. Above is the video for Drake’s “Forever” featuring Kanye, Eminem & Lil Wayne that just came out. Pretty standard hip hop video in my books. Heres the audio:

Theres been a few good remixes of our favourite Cudder tracks, we especially like the upbeat Sammy Banana’s remix of “Make Her Say” probably the best remix of the track so far! Meanwhile the Team Ezy Remix of Pursuit of Happiness is abit more sombre, taking a dubstep sound to the original.
