Fashion and music icon Pharrell Williams recently took part in an on-stage interview at the Midem conference which focused on the world of music business. The 40 minute talk focused on various aspects of Pharrell Williams’ approach to work and some key things including his favorite producer and upcoming projects involving Jay-Z and Hans Zimmer on a 3-D CGI film, Despicable Me.
I am a fan of Banksy’s humorous approach to street art, and this trailer does not disappoint.

Computer Juice is Riton and Seiji. I like the tune, and I like the video. It makes me want to go out and smash stuff up in an animated world too. Look out for Seiji (he’s the pineapple in the video) EP on MAN Recordings later this year.
Yeahhh! We are very happy to present: SCHLACHTHOFBRONX´s smashing new release the “Ayoba EP”, out tomorrow on Man Recordings digital!
Within only a year, these Bavarian Ravemeisters stormed the hearts of a global audience with their irresistable, full-on party bangers that nurture from Jamaican Dancehall, Angolan Kuduro, Trinidad carnival sounds, Rio Baile Funk, Dirty South and Balkan beats all at once. Call it the trans world rave beat hotpotch, all mixed up in a hyper energetic, maximal dancefloor sound – with prime time support by global players such as DIPLO, SINDEN and DANIEL HAAKSMAN. After their critically acclaimed album on Disko B and extensive touring through Europe, the “Bronx Guys” return with another slammin’ release – the “Ayoba EP”.
The EP kicks off with leading tune “Ayoba” (a South African slang word meaning “cool”, “alright”). It features the South African glam rap prince from Soweto, SPOEK MATHAMBO of SWEAT X and PLAYDOE, with whom SCHLACHTHOFBRONX have collaborated on various tracks on their debut album. Together with female MC GNUCCI BANANA, SPOEK rants over the mad tropical beats of SCHLACHTHOFBRONX. “Vem Que Tem” feat. MC MARINA brings the two Bavarians to a baile funk party, where they add their hi-speed beats to the savvy lyrics of Rio based MC MARINA which sings on how she’s shaking her derrier at a baile funk party. Baile Funk meets Ghetto Tech and UK Bassline in this track, which has been a steady sure shot in the high-powered SCHLACHTHOFBRONX live sets.
“Sai Safarda” (”Watch Out, you little bastard”) feat. MC LEKA is another baile funk inspired track. Leka has already contributed on “Para De Graçinha” on the CROOKERS produced Funk Mundial #3 release on Man Recordings, and returns with another strong female macho rap on what she’ll do to the girls that take away her husband. Last but not least it’s time to return to the Middle European melody complex, with “Tulum”, another steady guest in the SCHLACHTHOFBRONX live sets. Imagine a Bavarian accordeon-player accidentally landing in the studio of a Angolan Kuduro producer and there you have “Tulum”, call it “Bavarian Afro Schranz”, this tune certainly is bridging styles trans-continentally.
CROOKERS: “Yesss! E.p. is slammin, will definitely play Ayoba instrumental!”
RADIOCLIT: “Me Like Ayoba!”
GHISLAIN POIRIER: “Always following the Schlachthof guys!”
ROB BIRCH / STEREO MCS: “Nice mixture on Ayoba – cool groove too”

MAKOSSA: “Cool Tracks”
NIC SARNO: “Love Man Rec as always Ayoba it’s my version..Spoek rules support!”
Just back from my internet/cell phone free holidays and I see everyone’s been posting 2009 lists and I can’t resist posting mine. However, it’s more album orientated and less dancefloor driven than the others, which accurately reflects my year…
Berlin is all full of snow at the moment, nevertheless it´s time to raise the temperature for some serious Heat. Come down to WMF to party, we´ll give away free vinyls for the first 50 guests.
Here´s a recent radio mix João did for the radio show of Berlin´s Shir Khan:
Here´s a baile funk track off Lil Jon’s upcoming album “Crunk Rock”. Produced by Cassiano from NYC based Nossa crew, featuring Mulher File and the legendary Mr. Catra on the vocals – who could also be heard on Genghis Clan´s Funk Mundial release. With its big bass and well known melody, it should make some noise in US and Brazil club land.
The mysterious Genghis Clan, one of our top selling artists of 2009, has post his re-interpretation of Major Lazer´s “Jump Up” on his Soundcloud page for y´all to play out and download.
Baile funk in Rio has faded artistically lately – too much Tamborzinho beats and lack of ideas have caused a big musical crisis underneath the sugar loaf mountain. Even MC Gringo lately wrote in an email “baile funk is dead”. Adding to a musical crisis is an increased political pressure on baile funk culture ensulting in the closing down of many bailes across the city of Rio – an early taste of the increased city cleansing and seperation politics by the new conservative major of Rio looking at the Olympics in 2016.
But thank god, funk continues to live outside of Rio, as in this case, one of the sureshot party smashers of 2009: DJ Edgars mashup of Crookers´”Para De Graçinha” + “Soca Ali Baba” with Os Hawaianos´”Vem Kikando”. Call it a baile clash deluxe!
