Latin rhythms flow into disco and exit with electro; swoon. His vocal selections are phenom. Franki Chan has done it again.

Don’t miss the IHEARTCOMIX Beauty Bar blowout Thursday March 18th.
When this song first started we didn’t know what the hell was going on. Keyboard loop starts as pings to a creepy footstep beat right before the killer pounces roll into a money counter as the drums smack you in the face at 1:24. They then profess “We Love Animals.” The space angel begins singing at 2:43. 3:23 the money counter slowly clicks back in before we are violently sucked through the space ship door and into a black hole as alien babies whisper “We Love Animals.” Our favorite part? You can hear every keystroke in every layer.
We don’t know but set to blow way up in 2010, yea. Meet PRINCE TERRENCE (drummer for Kilimanjaro conquering Santigold, dirty yet delightful rapper Spank Rock and electro dance punkers Heartsrevolution) and his new solo effigy HUSSLE CLUB. A talented character of sorts, writing all the parts and singing on this “post punk/idol/club” endeavor, we’re excited to hear and see what he has to offer as a front man. Catch this staple subject of Last Nights Party, djing his weekly DANCE CLASS with “thug house” virtuoso Dances With White Girls and Blu Jemz of Turntable Lab, touring or lurking below 14th street in the city that never sleeps.
(Did we win for the longest name drop/shoutout in history?) (Oh yea, thanx Brock for the photo)
We waited until today to post about Diplo presenting his FREE GUCCI mixtape. Mad Decent’s site crashed earlier yesterday causing a small niched crisis however things are ok today. Get it here @ 320kbps!
And check out our boy Splurt capturing Diplo @ Best Buy in Union Square. You know they got kicked out right? Someone forgot to tell Skerrit Bwoy you can’t go assaulting white women like that as a part of public display.
Well, the virtual streets. Skip the record company red tape, straight from the creator herself and posted to twitter of all places (smart move).
bird tweets, autotune-ish?, the orient, indian drum patterns + M.I.A sings on this track.
Def watch this on full screen. Taking some mind altering substances could even enhance the experience. Its a great cock tease, MIA WE WANT MORE!
We’ve heard mixed reviews. Our opinion? It’s over the haters heads. What musician doesn’t hope to have Rhianna’s influence?
“Switch my hair they gon copy her/switch my gear they gon copy her”
The song is a “Hey Rhianna, I hope I’m as awesome as you one day! I wanna be a famous, trendsetting, jetsetting, going down in history vixen!” Ya’ll ain’t ready. Produced by London duo Chase & Status, we hope there’s more to come.
If you can hold on tight for 72 more hours they’ve promised to deliver Diplo’s Free Gucci Mixtape on Monday.
