A special lineup for this month's Dub(do)Work mixtape. To start things off, I've got a track from the wildly entertaining, King of the Ghetoo himself, Ron Artest. Ron Ron gives us a very unique tribute to the fallen King of pop. Be Sure to check this one out. It has all the good signs of a classic - a Sing-ALong hook, Heart felt lyrics and an overtone of comedy that forces you to listen to it over and over and over and over Again.
And with the fairly recent release of La Roux's debut, self entitled album, I have included one of my favorite cuts off the album, Tigerlily and a Mad Decent remix of her song, Quicksand. And speaking of Mad Decent, if you see Major Lazer coming to your town anytime soon, do yourself a favor and Go Check Them Out. They put on a spectacular live performance, that will surely have your eardrums ringing until noon the next day (!).
And if none of the above sounds interesting to you, the new jams from MGMT, Amanda Blank, N.A.S.A and Killa Cam should do the job. Oooh a special highlight for the man out of Columbia, South Carolina, Washed Out. His song, "Get Up" is a lo-fi synth special, sure to send the grooves runnin' thru.
Oh and one more. Last but certainly definitely never least, The CalifornianTexan in charge of the KENYADIG site we've come to know and love, has unleashed the final cut off his debut mixtape - Sweat for Me, featuring the over-an-hour long Monsterjam, The Thrill of It. This mix has been described as a "sense-assaulting laser orgy" by some and a "dope ass dance party- starter" by others. Whichever way you want to describe it, it will surely make you move. TURN IT UP.
And without further ado...the Dub(do)Work - July 2009 mixtape...

Beat for Michael Tribute done by none other than Houston's Chris Rockaway. Apparently it wasn't a great copy though and Artest decided to record a song over it independently and this internets released it.
ReplyDeleteAlso the La Roux track has a sample from a glorious original Lucas Arts game Monkey Island.
