nu musik: M.I.A.

"Galang Galang Galang"

Hallelujah! Rejoice! She's back. A few more new M.I.A. tracks have surfaced from her forthcoming Kala and they KILL. Maybe that's why the U.S. Government still wont let her into our secure homeland. But who cares, no one can stop her from murdering the streets of the intra-web. Proof positive, two new tracks from the best (only) Sri-Lanka via London rap-tress. Kala, her second LP, is set to drop August 21st. Also posting her Timbo collabo, the bonus cut from his Shock Value. Video for "Bird Flu" below. SUMMER 2K7 is jumping off!

Kid Sis Run Tings!

"Damn Girl, Don't Hurt 'Em"

Back in November I included Kid Sister's "Damn Girl" on the inaugural edition of the Knuckles McGregor Podcast after hearing it on FLO$$TRADAMU$' 3 Peat mix. Well finally after months of waiting she drops some official shit. Last week Kid Sister released the Control EP on A-Trak's Fool's Gold Records. The EP features a couple of different versions of "Control" and "Damn Girl." I've said it before and I'll say it again, Kid Sis is gonna be FUCKING HUGE! Her dancey blend of electro hip hop is, as Robert Palmer would say, "simply irresistible." Simply put, the girls got the gift of gab and the likes of XXXchange of Spank Rock, A-Trak's (Kanye's DJ),FLO$$TRADAMU$(her bro J2K and autobot) and Diplo(persuaded her to start rapping) in her corner. Down below find some mp3's and a video of her performing with Flosstradamus at SXSW's IHeartCOMIX party, as well as an old skool favorite. Let-let-l-l-l-let it perc-u-late, let it perc-u-late.

Just A Reminder

"1,2,3,4"


So Feist's new record, The Reminder, finally hits stores (physical and digital) today. Last week I featured her song "My Moon My Man" twice on the Knuckles McGregor podcast , so I figured I might as well throw the absolutely drunk Boyz Noise remix up for grabs. If you don't love the deep synth'd out vocoder intro, then swallow a handful of Mitsubishi pressed E-bombs and let the serotonin leak freely.

But first things first, if you haven't seen the videos for "1,2,3,4" and "My Moon My Man" do yourself a favor and scroll down. After watching you will have the strange urge start wearing multi-colored spandex leotards and recreating the synchronized choreography of "1,2,3,4" at slumber parties (post pizza, pre-pillow fight). You may notice a common theme among the videos, Feist sure loves dancing (Broadway?). Did I mention that I have a large (and growing) crush on Mrs. Leslie Feist?

The Reminder is also on sale at Amazon for a mind blowing $7.99.

Coincidently, while writing this post, STV SLV from THE HOOD INTERNET hit me up notifing me about a brand new Feist vs. Lloyd mash up they just posted. These guys are on fire, so of course, I had to throw it in in the mix. Feist vs. Lloyd- My Moon My Shawty

If you enjoy Ms. Feist's sweet voice, you may be interested in these tracks she cut with Norway's version of Simon & Garfunkel, the Kings of Convenience. Feist and K.o.C have collaborated alot in the past, both in the studio and on tour, and this live in-studio performance from KEXP in Seattle is a fine example of the lush, tranquil sounds they create together. "Know How," "Live Long" and "The Build Up" are Kings of Convenience songs, while "The Water" and "Mushaboom" are both off Feist's 2003 album, Let it Die.
