Finally, the breath of fresh air that urban music has been looking for has arrived in the form of J*Davey. Verging on the edge of electronica, this duo sure knows how to dish out the quality goods which you can hear for yourself on their new double EP titled The Beauty in Distortion / The Land of the Lost. They have already received the tick of approval from ?uestlove of The Roots and, of course, TastiTunes. Check out the track we have streamed for you called “No More.” Enjoy!
For about 15 years now Beck has been genre-hopping like a chameleon to bring us an array of fresh sounds and now he is doing it all over again with his brand new album, Modern Guilt. This time he teams up with producer Danger Mouse (of Gnarls Barkley fame) and the results are surprisingly great. Have a listen to the title track, which is one of the standout songs on the album for us here at TastiTunes.
Many of you will know trip-hop artist Tricky for his work with the hugely successful Massive Attack, or his now legendary solo debut effort Maxinquaye. He has had his hits and misses, but now he is back to do it all over again with a (sort of) brand new song called “Slow”. Why sort of new? Because it is a cover of Kylie’s hit from her 2003 album Body Language. Hit or miss? You decide.
Thankfully MC’s crew came to their senses after the disappointing ”Bye Bye” and decided to release “I’ll Be Lovin U Long Time” as the next single from E=MC². The song is simply amazing, and is the perfect example of what Mariah can produce when she is inspired. The vocals are straight forward and not over the top, the harmonies - perfect. Tastitunes gives it 5 stars. The remix is exactly the same as the original, but includes a verse from T.I. Check it out.
Ayşe Hatun Önal is another electronic artist who hails from the land of Turkey. For those of you who remember the Hande Yener song we previewed a few days ago, “Pinokyo”, this woman is probably her biggest rival right now. After a few more listens “Pinokyo” seems cheesy and uninspired, whereas Ayşe’s “Doğru Kanaldan Bağlan” is exciting, fresh, upbeat and new. Check it out.
Hey TastiTuners! As promised, here is Keri Hilson’s brand new song called “Energy”, in full. This is the alternate version with a different bridge, more background vocals, instruments and adlibs. For those of you who think Keri looks familiar, she was the female singer on Timbaland’s “The Way I Are.” Enjoy it, people!
Ladies & Gents, it is with great pleasure that we present to you the brand new single by a Turkish singer who is one of Europe’s hottest stars, Hande Yener. When it comes to electronic-pop music, Hande is the shiznit, and we are sure you will agree when you hear “Pinokyo” from her latest album Hipnoz. The song has been eagerly anticipated by her fans all over the world for weeks now. It’s catchy, it’s upbeat,it’s everything you want an electro-pop song to be. Enjoy!
“Universal Mind Control” is the first single to be taken off Common’s new album Invincible Summer. The song takes a new direction for the MC, and it is in one word… Brilliant! Very up-beat and danceable and all things good. We have been playing this tune all day here at TastiTunes. Check it out for yourselves!
What do you get when you take a U.S. #1 hit single and add a remix with T.I. & Young Jeezy? A pumpin hot club banger that is sure to get any party started. Don’t be hatin, it’s all about “Love in this Club” baby. Usher’s new album is out on May 27.
By now you must have all heard about Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour. Here is the tour edition of “Candy Shop” which includes a new intro. The tour kicks off on August 23rd in Wales, and moves on to France, Germany, Italy, UK, USA, Canada and Mexico, among other countries. Maddy, when are you coming back to Australia!
