Nothing new

Been looking for some new music today, didn't find anything exciting. So I'm posting two older ones. First off, a wonderful re-edit from Kon, this time on a more famous tune:



The second one is just a classic:

Eg Anda

New video from Sigur Ros, a bit strange but the sound is nice, so it's ok to close your eyes.

Peter and John

Some funky gospel on a Tuesday, why not.

Happy birthday Norway

I'm living in Oslo, and yesterday the norwegians celebrated their constitution day. It's really a quite fun day where everybody - young and old - is out in the streets celebrating, and there's a lot of partying going on all across town. If you've never been in Oslo on the 17th of May I can really recommend you going sometime cus' it's good fun. As Norway had their "birthday" I got to think about what norwegian music I've been listening to throughout the years. And as I'm not counting the billion times it seemes I've heard Aha's "Take on me" in various settings (most commonly involving alcohol), it's really not that much... Actually, there's really only one band that comes to mind - but on the other hand, quality before quantity and what a band they were: Turbonegro. So without further ado, here's two of my favorite Turbonegro songs: Age of pamparius (two things about this track: 1) gotta love the intro heavily influenced by AC/DC's "For those about to rock" 2) The pizzeria they're singing about - Pamparius - is located right by my job) and Blow me like the wind.

Friday rewind

Deception is a nice track that I first heard in a skateboard movie ages ago. I haven't really listened to any other Blackalicious songs except for this one, and I don't know anything about the group so just let's go ahead to the song.

Gimme some bass!

Heard this one last week (late I know Bob!) and the massive bass made me think of Escape Velocity immediately. Only six times shorter. The video is one for the books.

Dream Baby Dream

YES!!! This is so beautiful! Heard this song while on the metro this morning, and it made my day. First I heard the original (or original Suicide cover) by Neneh Cherry and the Thing. And then a little bit later Four Tet's remix of their version. Both versions are fucking brilliant, it's like having a .... and take a .... at the same time, full release!

So first Neneh Cherry and the Thing - Dream Baby Dream...



... and the Four Tet remix.

SpaceGhostPurrp

I really like the beat and the flow from this 20 yo MC and producer from Florida, SpaceGhostPurrp. The song God of Black from the mixtape with the same name.

All for Love

Rob'n'Raz is back, or at least Raz, with a great 90ies sounding house song. Apparently there is also an album in the works...

Friday rewind

Time for one of the most recognized and appreciated rappers ever (and a personal favorite) to enter the Friday Rewind hall of fame - Nas. Take it in blood is from his second album "It was written" and has a suggestive and heavy beat, all topped with the phenomenal hook from Kool Keith's Ease back echoing from speaker to speaker. Simply great.

Fast life

Stoner-rapper Curren$y is preparing the release of his new album "The Stoned Immaculate" that will hit stores 5. June, and he just released this track featured by westcoast O.G. Daz. Pretty soft tune. And I gotta say it's nice to see Stretch and MLK mixing it up here again!

I CAN hear the music

So with Stretch breathing down my neck to post as he's ressurected and back to semi-frequent posting I can't take this bad conscience any more. So here it goes, some swedish punk-ish rock from Norrland (what's the odds for that ?) Props go to dj awsm who brought them on to the radar and since then they've been stuck on repeat. Love the hook and the female background vocals just make this very short and sweet. Enjoy

Just a great sundrenched house tune, the remix from mr Carl Craig.

More M83

I made a post about M83 a couple of weeks ago and since then I've been listening to him even more. I really like the feel and big sound in his music - there's something epic about it that kinda reminds me of the sound Justice L.E.A.U.G.E. often have in their beats (nothing else similar though). Here's two tracks from M83's two last albums, one that comes with a really nice video ("We own the sky")

Impossible to resist

I just have to post this absolute fabulous track with Action. The strings and horns are the funkiest I've heard in a long time. From his 2010 mixtape Bon appetit.....Bitch!!!!!

A pygmy chimpansee?

Mickey Mau5

Moving into the other guys territory a bit on this one, but after hearing one of his songs in a snowboard movie I've been listening a bit to Deadmau5 lately, and earlier today I found this heavy new (?) track on youtube: ... and here's the fantastic track that got me listening in the first place:

The holy trinity?

As usual I'm not the fastest kid round the block, but this one I just have to post. Just recently I started listening more to Jeezy and I really like his flow. Here he's got two pretty decent wingmen aswell.


"I said I see some ladies in here tonight I might marry..."


That'll be my approach from now on...
