Yet another Blakroc jam as surfaced onto the interwebs. If you search hard enough, you can find the whole album out there but you should probably PRE-ORDER the damn thing instead! It is out in a week!

Anyway, the track is called “Hope You’re Happy” and is a short track with Q-Tip and Billy Danze each taking a verse, Nicole Wray adding some gorgeous backing vocals, and the Black Keys backing the whole thing up with some crying bluesy guitar and solid drums. Anyone else think Q-Tip’s verse is kinda choppy? I don’t know .. the video of his recording the verse didn’t sit well with me at the time i viewed it, and listening to the actual result is equally disappointing.

From Beck.com:

“A thruway from the external to the internal, in tribute to California bred composer Harry Partch’s concept of ‘Corporeality’— the integration of the body with all art forms. The song uses a 43 tone scale in reference to Partch’s innovations with alternate tonalities. A peregrination across disparate territory to ascertain an unassumed frame of reference.”

The song is apparently a response by Beck to some jackass feud between Radiohead and Fiery Furnace’s frontman Matthew Freidberger .. rather than me waste time and chitter chatter about it, you can read about it here, here,  or here (or search the web .. there are tons of the same article.)

Craving some “doom pop” as of late? Why dont you sink your teeth in to Sarathan Records‘ band War Tapes. In the Spring of 2009, the band released thier debut LP titled The Continental Divide.

via War Tapes:

“Written in a bleak rehearsal space overlooking the downtown-LA skyline, The Continental Divide distills the simultaneous gloom and beauty of midnight skyscrapers, crumbling train yards, abandoned warehouses, and feral animals. Guitars stab, assault and shimmer; industrial effects and ambience co-mingle like lost strangers; unexpected bass lines and harmonies rumble propulsively; incessant drum rhythms pulse like LA’s writhing freeways; and the always passionate vocals range from apocalyptic to triumphant to tauntingly seductive.”

In addition to their release and extensive touring, the band has also had their track “Mind is Ugly” remixed by Electro/House  DJ duo LAZRtag. The remix certainly takes the track in a whole new direction but it certainly is an enjoyable listen. Check below to download the remix and enjoy the video of the original track “Mind is Ugly.”
