Daft Punk x The 8485

Here is the second new joint from The 8485. It's a remix of Daft Punk's Robot Rock. There's no better feeling than fucking with your idols.

The 8485 x Daft Punk- Back in Ya Robot Face(320 kbps)

The 8485- Bring it Back

Cass and I just got back from the studio with these two new dope records. We started a rap group with one purpose, to make that dope shit.

Here is the first of two new tracks.

Jokers of the Scene Mix

Ottawa's own and recent Fools Gold signees, Jokers of the Scene are back up in the blogosphere (did I really use that word?). Looking to re-up on their Disconnected party, they've put out a dope new mix. The 8485 opened a loft party in the summer with them (thrown by Hot Flux Empire). It was fucking ridiculous. If you're in Ottawa and not going to the Disorganized monthly, or not going to Disconnected on the 2oth, there's something wrong.

Jokers of the Scene- Disconnected Mix

Here's the flyer for Disconnected:

Snoopy visits Baltimore

First remix pops up of Sexual Seduction, a Balla-more club remix from Solly down in the 'Lou.
I like this remix alot, but I can't front on the thump of the original. Big up to Missing Toof.

Snoop Dogg- Sexual Seduction (Solly's B-more remix)

Un peu plus fort, veuillez

I was dragged kicking and screaming (or something) to an electro-rap show in the summer. Some French chick who got famous by dissing someone quasi-important in the French glitch-rap-electro scene. On myspace no less. I ended up loving the show. The rapper-girl goes by Yelle. I caught a couple over at Synthetic Rocks that reminded me that she's dope. One in particular did justice to what she was like live (the PJU remix). The energy, the charisma. Also, I never miss an opportunity to share a Punks Jump Up track. One original, one remix:

Yelle- Les Femmes
Yelle- A Cause Des Garcons (Punks Jump Up Remix)

Not Gonna Rush The Stroke

This shit is going to be so crazy to play out. I'm just waiting on Sensual Eruption to leak, the dirty version is too ill.

Snoop Dogg- Sexual Seduction (clean)

Get Up = 1,2 Step - Bambaataa

I totally missed this song when it came out, and it's probably a good thing, because recently I've resolved my blood pressure issues and this would have sent me over the top. I loved 1,2 Step. I thought that song was dope because, among other things, it was new-urban pop made for little girls to pseudo 'pop' to, but if you knew anything about hip hop or electro, it was so much more.

Get Up is actually just 1,2, Step without Planet Rock as the primary influence. It's like they were really inspired by 1,2 Step, so they did a song based on that.

Ranting, I apologize.

Nasty Mix

My favorite Toronto DJ, Nasty Nav, started his own record label. NASTY MIX. You'll see alot of this guy mentioned, because he's dope. And because he's a good guy. And because, fuck, I like a hardworker like Nav, grinding shit out. His first release is the Bird Peterson Solid Trunk EP.

Goodluck with it Nav.

Cop the Solid Trunk EP here.

or better yet, hit up Play De Record and support Nav even more. Oh. Yeah, you didn't know?

The Boss and Chuck Taylor

Big up to jamphat for the image, hip hop math is back!!!

So Rick 'the boss' Ross' new album was pushed back. Big fucking surprise, right? But I gotta say, I'm excited for it. I was telling Cass last night after we checked out this studio, two of my go-to MC's right now are two guys I never thought I would like: Rick Ross and The Game. They both came out with more basic styles. They both claimed not to really be rappers, but rather that they were hustlers (who rap good, blah), and they were both seeming to ride other peoples coat-tails (Jeezy and Curtis, respectively). But now they've both proved to be alot deeper than their inital attempts at radio. But also, when I look back two of my favorite singles in 2006 were One Blood and Hustlin, and neither was a half-step pop-effort, and both fucking smashed.

So in the honour of this realization, and in sadness that I have to wait until '08 for both of these releases, here are a couple tracks, one new and previous gem from each.

Ludacris ft/ Rick Ross and Bun B- Down in tha Durty
Rick Ross- Blow

The Game- Walk in The Streets
The Game- Tha Shit

First Post

Our foray into the blogosphere started with the blog over at the e-zine Hot Flux Empire. Due to some technical difficulties, we haven't been able to post there in like a month, so today I'm starting this little gem. CELEBUTANTE KITTEN. Although it's a reference to young, party girl coochie, this isn't one of those blogs (much respect due, nonetheless). Sorry folks, this is one of those music/fashion/parties/food/culture/whatever-the-fuck-I-want blogs. Yeah yeah, another one of those.

I can't do much more of a post at the moment, trying to get my work done, but I thought this was important enough to take care of. So here's my first post, my edit of a Jokers of the Scene track that I love.
