New Chromeo Single “Night By Night”


I for one have been waiting a very long time for this, Chromeo's brand new track and first original since 2007's seminal album 'Fancy Footwork'. The new jam is titled "Night by Night" and is available for free over at Green Label Sound. As you would expect from Dave 1 & P-Thugg, it's 80's... It's very 80's with that classic snare sound, driving synths, soaring guitars and catchy vocal hooks. Oh and not forgetting their now signature vocoder. If you EVER get a chance to see these guys live, do it... do it at any cost and I assure you won't be disappointed.

Remixes from Skream and & Siriusmo to follow. How exciting!

Stay fresh!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!!!

I know we have been banging on about our birthday for some time now but we are uber excited to have Sammy Bananas come over and help celebrate our 1st birthday with us. Most of you have been down since day one and for that we salute you.
I don't think any of us thought when we had our first party on 29th August last year we would be booking acts like Sammy B. Tonight's the night, LETS GO BANANAS!!!!

Kanye West, Genius, Gay fish or Jack ass?



He thinks he's a genius, South Park thinks he's a gay fish and now Obama thinks he's a jack ass.
I can't decide, check the links below and make up your own mind.

Say Whoa! Presents: SAMMY BANANAS (FOOLS GOLD RECORDS/ NYC)





Have you heard? Say Whoa is a year old and we cordially invite you to come and join us to celebrate our 1st Birthday. We're very lucky to be joined by the one and only Sammy Bananas who's flying in from NYC to party with us all night long. In his honour, this night is going to be straight up bananas from start to finish with bananas galore, some special drinks, a soundtrack that will send you ape as well as all your favourites such as glow sticks and a few other cheeky surprises.

=======================================
SAMMY BANANAS (FOOLS GOLD RECORDS/NYC)
=======================================
www.myspace.com/sammybananas

Rising Brooklyn remixer and party maestro Sammy Bananas lives up to his name by crafting ecstatic tracks that ditch trendy production tricks in favor of pure pop satisfaction. The approach has already made fans out of influential BBC Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac and platinum producer Will.i.am, who ran up to the DJ booth at Sammy's last LA show to shout "YOU made this?!?".

Sammy stunned the DJ community in early '08 with his inventive bootleg of N.E.R.D's "Everyone Nose" which he rechristened as "All The Girls." He debuted the remix on the Screaming Bloody Murder tour in which he traveled North America with A-Trak, Sinden and Steve Aoki. The track was played across the world and became a staple in sets by heavyweights like A-Trak and Flosstradamus. After tours through both Europe and Australia in late '08, Sammy hit the ground sprinting in 2009 with remixes of buzzing acts Thunderheist and Passion Pit.

"He's definitely worth checking out, one for the future and an absolute party starter. Genius." - Jaymo & Andy George

"Wow I love these tracks! I don't know which one to play on the radio!" - Annie Mac

"In a musical climate where so many DJs and producers are doing the same thing as the next guy, Sammy Bananas is a breath of fresh air. His music is full of character and can be best described by one word: funky" - A-Trak

Free mixes/ remixes are available on his Myspace page and they are schweeeeeet!

Michael Jackson Tribute: Boys Noize Style





Back in October of 2007, myself and Cpt. Kerk went on a road trip up to Leeds to see Boys Noize play with Chromeo in can what can only be described as several hours of being audibly punched in the face. Ever since then I've dubbed Alex 'Boys Noize' Ridha 'the milkman' as he ALWAYS delivers. Here is a video of him doing just that and paying tribute to the late and great MJ.

Chamone mutha fucka!

Daft... Tron?



Some of you may be thinking that Daft Punk have been awfully quiet of late. The reason being is that they were commissioned by Disney to produce the score for the upcoming Tron Legacy film. Ignore the geeks in the attached video and you'll be able to hear the sweet sounds of Daft Punk's latest work.

Mmmm yummy!

WHOA! This video is s-s-serious

So, I had my heart set on booking these Morris Minor & the Majors guys and have them d-d-dropping fresh beats all over our first birthday knees up. But, sadly, the rest of the gang have cast their vote against me and invoked their right to veto my decision. Instead choosing FOOL’S GOLD’s very own Sammy Bananas.

Damn you democracy.

Keep and ear to the street and stay tuned boppers.
