VIDEO: Gnarls Barkley - Run
Our buds at Downtown posted the new Gnarls Barkley video over the weekend, which is a veritable visual orgy of B-Boy stylings,‘80s street fashion, and of course Cee-Lo Green’s awesomely extravagant stage presence. Take a gander at the video over at the Downtown RCRD LBL blog…
VIDEO THRWBCK: Ike and Tina Turner - River Deep Mountain High (1966)
We just threw on our copy of Erasure's The Innocents on for some Saturday cheer, and the last track is a cover of Ike and Tina Turner's "River Deep Mountain High". We did some YouTube trolling and found an awesome live verison of the track from back in the day. Amazing!
FEATURED: Jamie Lidell at the Warp RCRD LBL blog
This is really cool: the Warp blog just posted a bunch of photos Jamie Lidell took on the set of his new video. This is a total RCRD LBL exclusive, so make sure to peep it! We also have a sick stream going of a rework of “Figured Me Out”, a track off of Jamie’s upcoming record JIM. Enjoy!
FEATURED: Gonzales
Back at the turn fo the century, Gonzales was part of the artsy, super interesting Toronto scene with Peaches and Mocky. He's been keeping busy, traveling all over Europe and releasing track after track of, well everything really: electro, pop, rock, you name it, Gonzales has pinned it down and tamed it with his velvet-smooth approach to musicianship. Palms Out Sounds did an awesome interview with him today, so check it out.
FEATURED: His Name Is Alive
When His Name Is Alive—the Michigan-based '90s alt. band—released Someday My Blues Will Cover The Earth in 2001, it had an effect on us, especially the track “Write My Name In The Groove”. Firstly, because the song was featured in a compilation from French music mag Les Inrockuptibles that year (oh, how we love our import magazines) and secondly, because Someday… was released at the same time as Alicia Keys’ Songs In A Minor, and the resemblance between the two records was quite remarkable. “Write My Name In The Groove” is coasting R&B like Keys but with more wit, credibility, and hurt: HNIA vocalist Lovetta Pippen nails the aching of the lyrics perfectly. Bury Me Not featured Someday…-era His Name Is Alive today.
FEATURED: Chromeo x L.A. Riots
We've been fans of Chromeo for quite some time now, and it's cool to see the Montreal duo of Dave 1 and P-Thug finally get some international recognition. Liverpool-based blog Check the Availability featured superstar indie remixers L.A. Riots' rework of their 2007 single "Bonafide Lovin'" so check it out at the link below.
