Roll Deep - Shake A Leg
M.I.A. - Galang Her style is unique to hip hop and its a clever reflection of growing up in two cultures: Tamil and British.
Alpha Yaya Diallo - Freedom. Another great example of combinging traditional West African (Guinea) music with modern electric instruments and styles.
One of the best examples of combining West African music (the roots of
the Blues) with a modern Blues player is Taj Mahal's Kulanjan. Go
out and buy this album this weekend. Do it. Do it.

The T. got a copy of Brazilian Girls
recently. It is really good.
As we listened to them the first time, we both thought they were German. They have that I speak a thousand languages and play keyboards sound! But from their website, they don't seem very Deutsche. I think they might be American but there is not much info about the band members on the site. Friday, September 9

High-Fi 'Hard to Beat (Axwell Remix)' - Euro pop at its remixed best
Franz Ferdinand 'Do You Want To?' - It has that head bop to it that we have come to expect from British bands. But it is guaranteed to get the girls on the dance floor. The Go! Team - 'Bottle Rocket' Arcade Fire - Rebellion. Go buy this album this weekend. Do it. Do it. Friday, September 2

Once upon a time, hip-hop was about getting people on the dance floor. Check out Pon De Replay by Rihanna.
I just hope she continues to put out stuff like this and does not get talked into Mariah Carey-ish ballads. To hear a great re-mix of this track, check out BBC 1Xtra. Wednesday, August 31

A new day, a new category in Blogware.
Check out these tracks Love Generation by Bob Sinclar. It has a whistle chorus and everything, making it the perfect Brit club anthem. I Predict A Riot by the Kaiser Chiefs. The T.'s #1 pick this week of a track that you won't hear on North American commercial radio. |
