This week we got Prince Language out of THE CITY squirting some disco sizzurp all over some already amazing tracks and more or less making things schmoove.
He’s been a long time downtown DJ stalwart and has started to make more of a name for himself internationally in the last year with remixes for the likes of The Rapture, Armand Van Helden, Joakim, Stateless, and The Droyds. He’s worked with DFA on remixes for LCD Soundsystem and The Juan Maclean (included below) and puts out periodic mixes on his No Comprendo website.
His most recent piece of work has got to be his best yet, flipping MGMT‘s electronic comforter of a track “Electric Feel” into something even more warm n’ cozy (with a lil’ help from Them Jeans).
Finally!!! I’ve been waiting to give this shit out, and now it’s finally time>> The “N.A.S.A. Music” LA Riots remix.> The shit is SO CRAZY!!! My favorite remix yet!
Hey now, so Sunday night I had the privilege of checking out a couple of dusty old school gems on the big screen back to back at the world famous Silent Movie Theater over on Fairfax Ave. The combo of Beat Street and Breakin’ along with the Arabian Prince, an original member of N.W.A., on the 1′s and 2′s had the crowd in a giddy nostalgic haze all night long.
Turbo’s solo broom dancing scene outside the Kwik-E-Mart in Breakin’ was worth the price of admission alone. There was cheesy 80′s “breaksploitation” in abundance and everyone was lapping it up. Fat laced pumas, gerri curls, raccoon tail headbands, lots of mesh and even a young Jean Claude Van Damnage buck whilin’ on Venice Beach in a one piece spandex leotard (NO JOKE!).
Here’s a couple of tracks that’ll help ya get a taste of what was cookin’ that night. Coincidentally, they both share the amazing title of “Love Rap”. Imagine that! First one’s by Harlem World Crew and the latter by the all star line up of Spoonie Gee & The Treacherous Three (who hold down a most amazing Santa Claus and his elves type scene in Beat Street).
Cibo Matto were the coolest. Miho Hatori’s seductive vocal stylings and Yuka Honda’s sultry beats complemented each other perfectly. They’ve now since broken up but MIho Hatori’s latest album, Ecdysis, is a must for the collection; a nice, warm blanket for a sleepy pasty morning or friendly introspective companion on a drawn out subway ride across the city.
This beautiful piece of pie was remixed back in 1999 by Dan The Automator of Dr. Octagon, Handsome Boy Modeling School, and Gorillaz fame. He so smooth.
This is far and away the best YouTube video of all time. I can’t not watch this gem at least once a week. Apparently, this guy died recently.
A fucking shame. He was one passionate son of a bitch.
