DIPLO’S PIXIES REWORK

November 28th, 2008
You a slave to a page in my macbook.

You a slave to a page on my macbook.

I’d like to say Diplo is generally on point… his Electric Relaxation remix for example was great, but every once in awhile he makes some nasty ass edits (google diplo Spoon - Don’t You Ever or Brazilian Girls - Good Time). I saw him at Richards a few weeks back and he held it down… all things considered he definitely attempts cool shit, this as an example. “Hey” got me into the Pixies, and I don’t really know what is going on here but check it out.

LISTEN/DOWNLOAD:
THE PIXIES - HEY (DIPLO’S HEY DEVIL REMIX)

THE ROOTS’ TOUR BUS CRASH

November 25th, 2008

The legendary Roots survived a horrific tour bus crash in Paris, France. They are currently overseas in Europe opening up for Kayne West on his tour. On Nov. 20, while on the road to give one of their amazing shows to a sold-out crowd in Belgium, they were involved in a car accident involving their bus and another passenger vehicle. (A photograph of the damaged tour bus can be viewed by clicking “read more” at the bottom of this post.)

Drummer ?uestlove detailed the crash in a message posted on Okayplayer.com’s new blog:

“In reality the crash was all of about 7 seconds,” the drummer wrote in an email later posted on the site. “But to do a 360 on the highway and end up ramped up (the van that crashed into ours was under our double decker bus) in the air…is…well… a frigging miracle.”

In related news, a video just recently surfaced on YouTube where ?uestlove suggested that the band would be “retiring”. But the band has signed a contract to work as the house band for Late Night starting in March 2009 once Jimmy Fallon assumes hosting duties.

DJ SEMTEX TV: BACK STAGE AT GITD TOUR

Kid Cudi talks about working on 808’s and Heartbreak with Kanye West, shows us what a room full of groupies looks like, and eats rice krispie squares. Consequence and Mr. Hamilton do their thing as well… Oh yeah, and Kid Cudi and Consequence divulge a fair bit of info regarding their upcoming albums. Basically, the video is definitely worth watching if you’re a fan of any of these artists.
