FREE MUSIC: New Kid Koala Album Available on his Website.

September 30th, 2009

“Music is meant to be heard” – Kid Koala

I like his style. The album, The Slew: 100%, is tons of fun (seriously get it and just invite people over to drink whiskey with you) and Koala is giving it away for free on his website to get people excited for his tour. He’s playing gigs with the ex-Wolfmother drummer and bassist:

THE SLEW: LIVE TOUR
6 TURNTABLES MEETS THE EX-WOLFMOTHER RHYTHM SECTION

TONIGHT, he’ll be playing in Brooklyn, NY at the Music Hall of Williamsburg. Get tickets here, $15 bucks! Check out the amazing photos from his last show:

DJ Shadow begins a hostile takeover of Apple…

August 12th, 2009

This Time (I’m Gonna Try It My Way) from DJ Shadow on Vimeo.

NOW THIS IS INDIE, ladies and germs, even if he was signed to a major. DJ Shadow has gone cuh-ray-zay and is slashing, slashing, SLASHING prices! buy now! everything must go! (not really, digital files can’t sell out.)
Shadow has updated his site to offer his complete history of singles, soundtracks, albums and remixes, downloadable direct from his own music store, and all at fairly bargain basement prices… for the collectors out there, he’s also offering a variety of goodies, including limited edition vinyl pressings.
what’s the big deal, you may ask? besides Shadow being utterly indispensable to any serious afficionado’s music collection (NO ONE’s music library should be without Endtroducing…) as well as to underground hip-hop in general, Shadow is taking what Radiohead began and is bringing it into the now, claiming himself as the first major label artist to offer direct sales, cutting out the middle man. in other words, no iTunes and no major labels milking their cut from his teet. i’m thinking that this info might pass gently into the night for some of you, but what it means to me is that the artists are learning to take control. more info directly from Shadow himself after the jump:

break out the ecstasy, Los Angeles, and get back in that K-hole. Electric Daisy Carnival hits the LA Memorial Coliseum and Sports Arena

June 1st, 2009

so… Major Lazer. he’s a Jamaican commando who loses his arm in the zombie wars of 1984 and then is repurposed with experimental lazers as a new prosthetic limb. (or he’s actually Diplo working with Switch with Andy Milonakis guesting…) not much point in trying to be funny here when i am clearly out of my league. congratulations, Major Lazer, you win this round. but at what cost? amazing video from Major Lazer below.

if you want to see Major Lazer, they’re hitting L.A. for the Electric Daisy Carnival two-day festival (Friday June 26th and Saturday June 27th) at the LA Memorial Coliseum and Sports Arena. so dust off those glow sticks for a fairly incredible electronica lineup with performances by Thievery Corporation, Paul Oakenfold, Groove Armada, ATB, Paul Van Dyk, Benny Benassi, Kaskade, Infected Mushroom, Roger Sanchez, Mark Farina, Boys Noize, Shiny Toy Guns (at a rave? weird), Simian Mobile Disco, Diplo (by himself AND with Major Lazer, i think… that’s what it looks like, anyway, but i’m not really sure), DJ AM, Dieselboy, DJ Hype, LTJ Bukem, Markus Schulz, Sander Van Doorn, Yoji, and just a whole fucking lot of other DJs.

flamingoes, death, and tacos... pretty much sums up my plans for Cinco De Mayo.

This little jam got put together last minute and it’s gonna be epic! 1000 tacos will be made for the event and I will be kicking out the jams. Starts at 5pm so you can be stuffed on tacos and hammered by 7:30. Come on out! This is at the Los Feliz (Hollywood Blvd) location NOT the Beverly one. Hope to see you there.

-DJ Pubes
