Akon on his new album: "We're bringing the whole euro-club sound." I. Can't. Wait.

“Live Your Life” —> “Whatever You Like” —> “No Matter What”
Straight anthems, dudes.
Also, for some behind the scenes shots of the cover art (by artist Ian Wright) head over to The FADER.
Wow. John Norris interviews High Places for MTV. I guess they're blowing up.
Why can’t THIS be the line-up for the purported Zep reunion? Why do they have to get the Foreigner guy? Wasn’t he on some TV show with Sebastian Bach and the guy from Biohazard?

Fantastic, diverse set of current deep house in this week’s Resident Advisor podcast, courtesy of Panorama Bar resident Steffi. Highlight: Oracy (unknown dude who’s even w/o a MySpace) making jubliant vibes with “Hold Me”. Head over there to download, and then do like I did, browse YouTube for Berghain/PB clips to feel like you’re actually there.

Download B.O.B’s “Hi! My Name Is B.O.B.” mixtape right here. This thing has the obligatory mixtape-only dream samples both awesome (“The Denial Twist”) and awful (“Sweet Home Alabama”) and B.O.B. is kind of like Wale’s nerdier friend who tried to get him into D&D and pogs and shit but eventually got hip to weed anthems. They both got Interscope deals, though. Jimmy’s still got it (probably not).
Spotted on their site seconds ago. Looks like some major corporation needs a better copy editor.
