Laundrymix – JUke Yourself, Bitch! (Mix)

Can’t think of a better way to round out a Tuesday than with a short juke session.
No track list, sorry.
BBU – Bell Hooks (Mixtape)
1 Mar
Here is the full mixtape to which they’ve been dropping singles for a few months.
Sorry I haven’t been blogging as much the past week or so.
10illie – Candy Jams (FreEP)
21 Feb
Chuck Inglish’s songstress Tennillie dropped her debut EP on Valentine’s Day last week. I really dig the sound of this chick’s voice over Chuck’s stripped down production.

Missed this last week, sorry. BBU’s new mixtape “Bell Hooks” should be out tomorrow for free download. I’ll try to be a bit more timely.

Randomly, Mike and Chuck drop a video for “Rush Hour Traffic” off their album When Fish Ride Bicycles.
DJ Funk – I Love the Ghetto (Throwback Mix)
30 Jan
To this day, DJ Funk is still one of my favorite DJs. Back in the late 90s/early 00s you would have been hard pressed to find an electronic music fan that didn’t have at least 1 DJ Funk mix in their collection. His blend of repetitive profane lyrics and stompy house beats set the scene for several rave dance floor hookups. I’d actually like to know how my children have been conceived to DJ Funk mixes….
Wish I had a tracklist … sorry.
Rihanna – We Found Love (Lemi Vice Remix)
29 Jan
Lemi Vice has cooked up this free dubstep bootleg of Rihanna’s “We Found Love”. Watch for his tune “Gorilla Revolution” to drop on Rad Summer in the next month or so.
Drop the Lime – Shake Baby Shake (PHNM Remix)
29 Jan
Rad Summer’s newest member dropped this remix of Drop the Lime’s “Shake Baby Shake” last week. Phenom flipped the rockabilly track driven almost exclusively by a bass guitar line into an electro house banger.
G-Scott – HA$H
25 Jan
I really dig this track from the young emcee, but I’m totally over rappers shouting out Pimp C on every lower tempo beat.
BBU – The Hood ft. GLC
25 Jan
BBU keeps rolling out singles in preparation for their album. This one features Chicago hero GLC.
Young Live – Hard on the Bitches
19 Jan
New music from Chicago’s Young Live (not sure if the I in Live is long or short). Upped it to SoundCloud because I wasn’t digging the way his Tumblr’s player was embedding.
Flick of the Week: Street Thief (2006)
16 Jan
Sometime last week, I decided this must come back as a feature…This week’s selection is the cinema verite piece “Street Thief”, which follows the life of Chicago burglar Kaspar Carr as he breaks into everything from a grocery store to a strip club. When I first saw “Street Thief”, I was thoroughly convinced that it was an actual documentary. After a bit of research, I discovered that the film is actually a well scripted, low budget flick masquerading as a documentary. This is a must see, and I’m fairly positive it is on Netflix.
TORRENT: Street Thief (2006)
BBU – Kurt de la Rocha
8 Jan
The guys from BBU channel Kurt Cobain via sample and Zach de la Rocha via lyrics on their new single that spits in the face of the music industry. I’m getting more excited for their album!
