Whitest Boy Alive – 1517
I heard this over a year ago while waiting in line at Green Apple Books; it’s like the kind of music you’d hear in one of those retro-futuristic homes from the 70′s with woodgrain everything.
You only move grams. Wheelchair.
I’m late on the #fakedrake lyrics but they’re pretty funny. Nil Doctrine has his top ten #fakedrake lyrics.
The xx – Basic Space
Give the song some time — it builds up to something pretty great.
Die Antwoord
Die Antwoord is a South African rap-rave trio that borders on parody. The third member in the group, DJ Hi-Tek Solarize (Leon Botha), is one of the oldest living sufferers of progeria syndrome. All in all, it’s a bizarro blend of shit that sounds pretty decent.
Warning: video has mild boner swanging (sort of not safe for work).
Edit: Thanks for the clarification, Jermaine.
Delegation – Oh Honey
I just heard this on the radio and I can’t get it out of my head. So good.
Sound of Souleyman
Kiya introduced me to Omar Souleyman last night. Souleyman is a Syrian singer mixing the traditional styles of dabke dance with live instruments and weird frantic spazzcore keyboard synths.
Omar Souleyman is a musician from Syria. He began his career in 1994, working with a number of musicians with whom he still performs, and around five hundred studio and live albums have been released under his name. (Wikipedia)
Björk spoke highly of Souleyman during NPR’s You Must Hear This segment in June of 2009. You’ll also have to check out this montage video with group dancing; he also makes it rain money near the end of the clip.
Kool & The Gang – Summer Madness
