Um fã de J Dilla selecionou 171 vídeos e criou essa playlist maravilhosa de um dos produtores mais talentosos que o hip hop já viu. Um grande mestre.

Aproveite esses beats incríveis:

O pequeno filme ou grande vídeo clip de quase 19 minutos tem um visual estonteante, que combina com cada uma das músicas usadas: “Take The Night Off”, “I Was An Eagle”, “You Know” e “Breathe”.

Elas fazem parte do álbum Once I Was An Eagle, que será lançado no fim de maio pela Virgin.

Sete minutos de R’n'B psicodélico.

O álbum Kiss Land ainda não tem data de lançamento, mas certamente será um dos grandes discos desse ano.

Meia hora de Daft Punk numa rave americana em Wisconsin:

A Spin fala mais sobre esse dia aqui, se liga num trechinho:

“On Memorial Day weekend, 1996, electronic music history was made on a muddy, rain-soaked Wisconsin campground. Two young humans known together as Daft Punk — who ultimately would become far more famous in robot guises — played their first American show. The soggy, chaotic setting was the 1996 Even Furthur, the third installment of the infamous Furthur outdoor festival and campout series thrown by Milwaukee rave producers Drop Bass Network. Daft Punk touched down at Eagle Cave Campground not only before their debut Homework was released the following year, but before anyone in the Midwest aside from a few DJs knew who they were at all. Drop Bass leader Kurt Eckes — along with his Furthur promoting partners, Minneapolis’ Woody McBride and Chicago’s David J. Prince, founder/editor of Reactor zine (and onetime SPIN staffer) — knew they’d scored a coup, though time would show precisely how much of one it was.

From its inception in 1992, Drop Bass raves weren’t just the biggest in Milwaukee; with the exception of Richie Hawtin’s Detroit-area parties, they were the biggest in the Midwest. In turn, Furthur ’96 wasn’t legendary for Daft Punk alone: The late Scott Hardkiss of San Francisco dropped his remix of Elton John’s “Rocket Man” and brought shivers to a 3:30 a.m. crowd. Mixmaster Morris, the event’s official headliner — Daft Punk were second-billed — spun a six-hour overnight ambient set, and also took turns on the decks of smaller systems that the Midwest’s true believers had carted to the site on buses, trailers, and pickups. Even Furthur ’96 hasn’t lasted in everyone’s memory — many participants were simply too blotto. But others recalled the weekend in detail for this oral history, which begins with the festival’s origins in 1994.”

O duo britânico remixou a bela “The Socialites” do grupo americano Dirty Projectors, que está no álbum Swing Lo Magellan, lançado ano passado. Parece um sonho.

“I hate to say I miss you/ ‘cause you don’t need me anymore.”

“There’s no need to be an asshole/ You’re not in Brooklyn anymore.”

Performance matadora de “Two Trains”:

Que banda maravilhosa.

Vem aí disco novo da musa Sharon Jones com a sua banda mais que sensacional, the Dap-Kings.

Give the People What They Want será lançado em agosto pela magnífica Daptone Records e você pode ouvir o primeiro single “Retreat!” aqui:

Que groove.

Completinho, do jeito que passou na TV em 19 de Abril de 1979. Tom Waits não queria ser entrevistado, ele só queria contar histórias:
