DOWNLOAD :: Wick-It The Instigator – ‘The Brothers of Chico Dusty’ EP [The Black Keys x Big Boi]

December 22, 2010

Earlier this month, we found an awesome mash-up by Wick-It The Instigator of The Black Keys‘ track “Tighten Up” and Big Boi‘s hit single, “Shutterbug.” If you dug that track, then you should get excited that Wick-It has gone ahead and released an entire EP titled The Brothers of Chico Dusty, which finishes off the combination of The Black Keys’ album Brothers and Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty. Both these albums have been making appearances on many blogs’ year end lists and so a mash-up of the two is certainly worth checking out ..

YAWMA releases Black Moth Super Rainbow demos from the ‘Dandelion Gum’-era

December 21, 2010

Powered by YAWMA‘s Groupee infrastructure, a mix of six well known artists and developers are offering their games and music at “Pay What You Want”, with 25% of the proceeds going to charity! Featuring three different bundles of one game and one album (with some bonuses snuck in), all spread across the time frame of a week.

Days 1 & 2: Max and the Magic Marker + Twin Sister
Days 3 & 4: Beat Hazard + Girl Talk
Days 5 & 6 & 7: Multiwinia + Black Moth Super Rainbow

As I am writing this post, the ‘Beat Hazard + Girl Talk’ bundle is about to expire and the ‘Multiwinia + Black Moth Super Rainbow’ bundle is about to go live. This is quite exciting because not only do all proceeds go to St. Jude’s Children Hospital but there will also be 5 bonus BMSR tracks included. Tobacco has rumored through facebook/twitter that one of these bonuses is the demo of BMSR’s single “Dandelion Gums”!

You can grab the bundle here!

UPDATE :: I picked up the bundle and the five bonus tracks are:

“We Are the Pagans”
“Untitled Roadside” Demo ORIGINAL
“Chinese Witch Guy with an Ax”
“Unfinished Sketch 3″ (Unreleased 2006)
“The Dark Forest Joggers” (Dandelion Gum Vinyl Exclusive)

VIDEO :: Data Romance – “Little Drummer Boy”

December 21, 2010

Photo by Dave Hamilton

When I was first introduced to the Vancouver duo known as Data Romance, I was very impressed with how their live tracks sounded quite different than their studio versions. DR’s rendition of “Little Drummer Boy” follows along this trend with its atmospheric sound that feels must looser than the original. Interestingly enough, the track was recorded in one take using a a single mic and a monome, which is small grid of LED lights that are used to trigger sounds and sequences from your computer.
