Snoop Dogg  recently dropped a track called ‘That’s Tha Homie.’ This is the first track off his new album Malice N Wonderland, which is due out Dec 4th.

Does this mean Snoop isn’t changing his name to Niggarachi like I read about a month or so?

Sloan is four distinct songwriting voices — guitarists Patrick Pentland and Jay Ferguson, bassist Chris Murphy and drummer Andrew Scott — that nonetheless form a cohesive collective. Long-time Toronto scenesters who will always call Halifax home.

The crisp drumming on this track by The Angel caught my ear immediatley but that soulful haunting jazz in the background is what really kept my attention.  Some times you just gotta dub it out .. Enjoy.

Hailing from the burgeoning electro-pop scene in Gothenburg, Sweeden, Little Dragon’s carefully crafted sophomore effort walks the line between experimental electro and giddy synth pop, with enough infectious hooks to push the band from quiet underground sensations into the mainstream. Recorded in their home city of Gothenburg, Machine Dreams is a gigantic leap on from previous material, but still maintains a distinct Little Dragon sound.

The new sound is electro-soul and the new album by Little Dragons does not seem to disappoint.
