Major Lazers next single is “Pon De Floor”, the video was released today. Good choice, more appealing than the rooted “Cant stop now” thats playing on the radio (at least in Germany).
Id say they really go dumb with this one. I dont even know if I mean that in a hyphy kind of way or literally. I dont know neither if their moronic spoof dancehall moves smallen our chances of making it into any music generator, after we kicked the porn already (to the generator executives: JOKE!). I do know that this actually is a damn good video. Reminds me of this funky video with to old black folks gettin it on, that was banned by youtube. Anyone remember the name…..? [Thanks to J, we got it!! Thats what I meant...: Dance Floor Dale]

Best thing about the dance stuff i it is that it aint as overdone as you may think. Thats just some funky daggering. If Major Lazer put some fast cheap bass under it it wont be long till Scooter daggers on the bandwagon. I read Jamaica even banned the dance because dudes broke their dingelings doing it (Spate of broken penises caused by dance style ‘daggering’). Tried it at some Großraumdisko. Makes you the star of the night. Believe it.

Weekends starting and we got the right package to get loaded. Five nice little bangers, hand-selected and up to date like newly laid. Plus the ugliest cover ever. Be prepared. Ha!

Seriously. We picked five tracks for you, stream them, download individually or get the full mini blog compilation. I’ll explain what you hear below, lets get to the ugly cover first.

Schakkerhart – Party Starters (Ms Dynamite, Mr.V, B.Rich, Cadenza, Magot)

[podcast: http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/MsDynamite_geeneus_crackish_schakkerhartcom.mp3]

Ms Dynamite feat. Geeneus – Crackish

Geeneus is spinning House and funky on Rinse, so he got props. Teamed up with Miss Dynamite, who we heard just one post ago (Bad Gyal Hot Fuck (Natalie Storm vs. Ms.Dynamite)

[podcast:http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Magot_AlsIkLosGa_KidKaioRemix_schakkerhartcom.mp3]

Magot – Als Ik Los Ga (Kid Kaio Remix)

Thats an interesting mixture right here, like your first time of Zaziki and onions on fries. Belgian lyrics on a tropical beat. 

[podcast: http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Cadenca_FunkyNassau_schakkerhartcom.mp3]

Cadenca – Funky Nassau

A dope one we found on baltimore-club.com: Cadenza sampling “The beginning of the end” by Funky Nassau. I dont know any of the names but the track is rocking.

[podcast: http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/MrV_PutYourDrinkDown_BigSpaceRemix_schakkerhartcom.mp3]

Mr V. – Put Your Drink Down (Big Space Remix)

„Put Your Drink Down“ by Mr.V been around for some time BUT: the chariusmatic leader of underground blogging, Big Space, did a mean rework. He tries to heat up South African winter with that. It works well to heat up the Germanian summer too.

[podcast: http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BRich_Reese__MakeMeDance_schakkerhartcom.mp3]

B.Rich feat. Reese – Make Me Dance

B Rich, at last. Okay I forgot where I got it from and the club will be closing before I remember. Post some wise words about it in the comments will ya?

Natalie Storm ain’t afraid of bass. Nor rough & juicy lyrics. Stretch Armstrong made the Bmore bed for her “Hot Fuck”. She got my nose wide open. Natalie demands cash so all we have is a preview. Buying is recommended. If they got their ID in it, it will give The Heatwave some money. Only fair to steal their buying link too if I steal their topic, aint it?

Natalie Storm & Jigsy – Hot Fuck Remix (preview)

Buy full track

 To have more than two minutes of uncut raw in this post let me add another Bad Gyal. I stole her to from The Heatwave. Thats the bashment connection over there, them Rastafarians is crazy. The track aint really as digitall bass as this blog is but I’ll give it a pass because its from Ms.Dynamite.

Ms Dynamite – Bad Gyal (mediafire)

Production is done by Sticky. Even if it aint Digital Bass, atleast the bass sounds digital. Plus ms.Dynamite really knows how to spit.

Schakkerhart Mix #2 is here and serves you the hotties and the curiosities. 20 minutes of raw emotions. Fr33m4n once again layed his funky hands on the goodies.

We met 2 Live Crews Mr.Mixx at our favorite Table Dance spot in Düsseldorf and wrangled two tracks out of him. Since Electro Dancehall is the thing of the bing right about now, we put two Major Lazers and Terry Lynns “It Was Written” in the mix. Dizzee Rascal and Armand Van Helden get processed in their Doorly version. Bar 9 and Celtic Islam appear courtesy of generationbass.com. Frauenarzt and Manny Marc bring in that german flavour. Thanks to blog.hiphop.de/Donni for the bangin Rockatronix remix.

Enjoy!

And dont forget the little brain cracking radio play we did.. check out here.

I don’t know who made it hip to think so, but: Major Lazer‘s Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do  matter of factly got declared album of the year by everybody thinking he’s supposed to make such a selection. You can stream the whole album here legally:

Major Lazer - Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do pre listening

Why do people love it? Guess half of it is the “praising this makes me look like an expert” thing. Second thing is that the album has helluva concept by giving dancehall a facelift. Plus: the album works. Switch and Diplo use baby cries as an instrument, surf guitars (whatever this is I just copied that from somebody), use effects on the toasting and stuff. They worked with dope artists, blabla. Everything on point.

The concept aint new though. Its what you do in this online mash up scene. Its what Buraka Som Sistema did with Kuduro, taking a genre and tuning it with all the sounds and genres that are hot right now. Like Radioclit did with Funana in the mix I just posted (Radioclit Funanan Mix).

I just read an interview for a german mag where Diplo stated wursting dancehall wouldnt be cool at the moment what makes his work revolutonary. Hm. I come across stuff like that daily man. Might be Diplo started the trend (??) but Ghislain Poirier is doing it, Modeselektor, Terry Lynn and Phred do it. Dubstep and Grime have this influence like every second new british genre. So it aint that revolutionary and its definitely cool at the moment.

That aside, the album aint disappointing. Dont know if it’ll make my personal album of the year, but yeah. I dont really find stuff on it that tops Hold The Line, but Anything Goes is fire, Pon de Floor is porn, When You hear the bassline, Jump Up, Bruk Out,… 90% dopeness.  Only Keep It Goin Louder sucks big time due to being a commercial chart fighter with autotune under the wings. I defffnitly like hands in the air techno crap, but they fucked it up. Businesswise it makes good sense of course.

firstup.se might not have everything I like, but I damn sure like nearly everything Felicia is blogging. One thing she found and I didnt steal yet, is Ghislain Poiriers „Soca Sound System“. The title might give a hint how to pigeonhole the release. The Canadian himself is describing his sound as “digital dancehall, nova soca and electronic riddims.”

I got Get Crazy (with Mr. Slaughter) as MP3 and video for you. The other songs feature Face-T and MC Zulu, you can check the four songs here (buy). All of them is worth listening, so you might as well buy the whole package.
For more tracks and mixes, check ghislainpoirier.com/audio.

Ghislain Poirier – Get Crazy

[podcast]http://schakkerhart.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/ghislainpoirier_getcrazy.mp[/podcast]

Dancehall and Bassline House, why not. With their Brooklyn Anthem, Team Shadetek, 77Klash & Jahdan Blakkamoore releast a real banger in January 2007. Brooklyn toaster  Jahdan Blakkamoore plans to follow that route with his DJ /Rupture assisted album Buzzrock Warrior and the We Are Raiders EP  (both on Dutty Artz).

Producer Matt Shadetek  will be on both on them, so his Bye Haters Remix  of Go Round Payola might tell us what it will sound like. The Brooklyn Anthem (on the Craziest Riddim) was way harder and Go Round Payola features damn Autotune, but the bassline/ dancehall mash up definitely works.
