Nero- Innocence (Original mix) (Right click, save link as. For all of those who haven't figured it out yet.)

Brand new original tune from British bass baron Nero. Humongous, heavy and haunting. (Bonus points for alliteration?)

POGO- Upular (Rynecologist Helium Rework)

I told y'all that Rynecologist was dope in a recent post. This rework only adds to his appeal. This song is ridiculous. I can't even quite explain why it is good, though. It sounds like a television ad from the 1950s, something with a cartoon character, children, and a lesson to learn. Bomb shit!

Jay Malinowski- There's a light

Admittedly, I didn't know that this guy was a member of Canadian pop-reggae group Bedouin Soundclash when I first heard his album. Sometimes, that lack of a predisposed bias on something is refreshing as fuck. In my mind, this is soulful, moving music. Is this song popular on Canadian radio? No fucking clue. I haven't watched television in 5+ years, and I have no idea if I'm "supposed" to dislike this.

Ok Go- This too shall pass (Passion Pit remix)

It's just great indie rock music, y'all. If you still dislike this song after watching the Rube Goldberg Machine-featuring video posted below, you hate happiness. Passion Pit turn the original into something of a raving whirling dervish anthem.

Billy Boyo- One Spliff a day

One spliff a day keep the evil away.

to conclude, I'll drop two videos. One that is completely relevant to the post, and was mentioned above. The other, which foreshadows a gargantuan summer hit. Duck Sauce is back, baby. A-Trak + Armand Van Helden = heaven for your ears. Barbara Streisand will rule the airwaves this summer, and I can't wait. Yes, there are better quality videos of A-trak dropping this song at a festivals, but this one, filmed in a sweaty club at WMC 2010, is my favorite. The sound quality is atrocious, we can barely make out who is djing, but HOLY SHIT does the crowd go nuts. And that's the most important thing.





I'm off on vacation for Easter weekend. I leave you in the very capable hands of Byneford & Calibaba.

Behave.
