Heater

There's always one record to come out of Ibiza each summer that gets everyone talking and this year's tune has to be Samim's Heater. Now even a bonafide hit in Holland!


The original is a traditional Colombian song called "La Cumbia Cienaguera" (zShare), first recorded in 1951 by Juan Jiménez.

I Ran

Can you imagine Saturday Night Live would use a sample of Aphex Twin to make a musical parody about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?

Update: Apparently NBC pulled the clip because it did not clear a music sample.

Update:


The original is titled "Avril 14th" from the album Drukqs (2001).

Alive

"Between French touch, Kanye West, and the traveling pleasuredome that was the Alive 2007 tour, Daft Punk were pretty much everywhere in 2007. And while a hefty portion of that was due to the brain-melting amazingness of their live show, a lot of it also seemed to emanate from forces bigger than the band itself."

Read an interview at Pitchfork, or - if you got the chance - go see them.

Tweak

The new album by Felix Da Housecat "Virgo Blaktro And The Movie Disco" is again a disappointment: only one good track out of sixteen.

Paris

Habbekrats Reclame make the best Dutch music videos. The last one stars Dutch hiphop group Opposites.
"Ik ben dom, lomp, en famous, bitches zitten aan mijn penis."

(The catchy organ is from "Liar, Liar" by the Castaways.)

Orinoco Flows

New York based band Professor Murder innovates by using a dancehall riddim (Chinkuzi by South Rakkas Crew) and turning it into punk-funk-indie-dancehall-whatever.


"Champion" dates back to 2006, and is from their debut EP "Professor Murder Rides The Subway".
