Kid Cudi’s Day & Nite remixed by Crookers - Video

It’s about time they made a video for this song. I just got around to posting it, but if you haven’t seen it yet here it is. Still a great song. Good to know anyone who’s good, blows up in England and Europe first, right? This is Kid Cudi’s Day & Nite remixed by Crookers. A big summer anthem, I would say.

Fake Blood at Studio B, VEGA & The Twelves, Jason Mundo, The Glamour & Krames - Weekend Rollout

TONIGHT

TROUBLE & BASS w/ FAKEBLOOD - BROOKLYN

Here in NYC, Trouble & Bass is growing and back in BK where they belong. This time it is Studio B where they make their new home. This month they have special guest Fake Blood from London. Fake Blood has done remixes for Hot Chip, The Kills, and Armand Van Helden to name a few. He is known for his tune Mars, where you can get here.

Fake Blood - Mars - Zshare

The tune has an early 90’s rave feel to it with simple modern day drum samples influenced by bmore club or ghetto tech. With the epic intro, it just drops to a really nasty, gritty electro bassline. It’s so simple and catchy, but makes the dancefloor go off.

T&B also is playing host to Dutty Artz, who gets a shot at playing the side room. Dutty Artz is known for their world beats and tropical sounds. It consist of Geko Jones, Dj Rupture and Matt Shadetek to name a few. You can actually check out one of Dutty Artz protege’s Talisen, with his new mix Apricity. Although Talisen is not going to be with the Dutty Artz crew tonight, he will be on his own turf at Bard College doing a show up there before the Holidays. Check out his myspace

Blip Festival 2008

So the Blip Festival is happening for the 3 year in a row. It’s pretty much a bunch of game and music geeks get together to perform, make and teach each other about 8bit music or chiptune music. These guys strip down the most simplistic and bare essentials of a sound and cut it up, chop and splice them together to make, in essence a 21st century version gameboy and nintendo music. its great. check out the video and site

Blip Festival Website - http://blipfestival.org/2008

For an idea of what to expect at Blip Festival 2008, here are some video segments by 2 Player Productions featuring several artists performing at the past festivals and events.
