Busy Boys…
http://www.vimeo.com/2040476Krames n Sweat X truly are busy boys, and Purple Crush seems to like to keep it that way since they keep sending them tracks to remix, currently i dont think that there is any other band so frequently remixed as P.C.
Its good stuff tho, so no worries really, just a shout to all you musicians out there, step up your game!
Ok ok, so listen to these, i think they are brilliant, both of em, i kinda lean to prefer the Sweat X one but that might just be a phase.
Busy Boys ( Sweat X remix) - Purple Crush
Busy Boys (Krames remix) - Purple Crush
And if you like it, pick it up here: Beatport or Itunes
and it you live in Germany, peep Krames and Oh Snap! germany tour 25th dec-2nd jan, hitting Berlin in NYE!
Zizek…
Villa Diamante in Norway on their currently on going Europ tour
Ok, so my mate Cheers Chris from Mirage Disco Crew fame turned me on to this dude called Villa Diamante, he is part of a network around a club in Buenos Aires called Zizek doing this pretty new thing, at least for us westerners, that they call Cumbia, or Digi Cumbia. And i for one think this is pretty sweet, it might just be the next big thing, im thinking late spring yall are gonna “stuffa” to this in your favorite club.
Villa Diamante - Plastilina Mosh vs. Mike Jones
And as were doing a little research i fell over a couple of other tracks, one more of these Cumbia tracks and what you are used to hearing out of south america by now as well, slightly more laidback tho. enjoy.
F to the Riday
Whew! We made it. Time to get loose.

Enjoy your weekend friends! (raising my glass)
pEEp this hyphy lil #
Maddecent has quietly released the Diplo & Benzi, Paper Route Records, “Fear and Loathing in Huntsvegas” album as a pay what you want.
For the recession friendly price of $5 or more you get all the tracks at 320 kbs and 4 bonus tracks not included with the 192kbs $0-4.99 version.
I find this a lot more interesting than Kanye’s new album which surprised everyone with its minimalism and heavy use of vocoder!?.
Kanye’s a great rapper and all but he’s been doing the Madonna as of late jumping onto whatever’s hot. All of the rappers that have been spitting a few verses over the latest hyped up track should take note too, this is sampling without bootlegging. First two tracks from the album below.
get it hrrr.

Blaqstarr ft Jhi Ali - Stuntastic (prod by Diplo)

I remember buying the cassette single to Ain’t No Future In Yo Frontin’. Paper route money didn’t go very far, so I couldn’t get the album. Still love that track.
