Two new tracks

06.Dec

Not much going on recently in my music habits, except for the recent discovery of two excellent tracks.

The first one is from the Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift movie – it is actually the opening track, sang by DJ Shadow and is entitled Six Days. I was just too impressed when I first heard it and I immediately searched for it – you can find the video here.

The second comes from the radio and it was a pretty hard challenge to identify it. It is one of the very few house / dance bands in Romania I appreciate and it is the first single out of their future album – Activ – Reasons. You can download it following the link – not hosted by musicblog – or you can just wait for the album to go and legally buy it.

Quite strange that both tracks are from the same genre, not one I would particularly like, but maybe it is just my mood of driving these days….

When You Wasn’t Famous (The Streets)

12.Apr

It’s about time someone said what we all were thinking. “The thing that’s got it all fucked up now is camera phones – how the hell am I supposed to be able to do a line in front of complete strangers when they’ve all got cameras?” Amen brother. We’ve been saying that for months now. (Vice)

Attention music blog shoppers! Vice Records have realised that keeping security tight on The Streets* new LP is worthless. So they’re letting us ‘ave it. The Streets – When You Wasn’t Famous mp3 (totally legal). Getting a free download is like Vice letting you take a lick of that pistachio ice-cream and then grabbing it right back and proceeding to scamper off into the night. Well not the night but at least a virtual music store for you to download, download, download!

It gets better, our special offer this week can only bring you further satisfaction. Mike Skinner recently co-hosted Zane Lowe’s BBC1 radio show, and here you got two excerpts:
