[Event] TONIGHT in Toronto: Ivana Santilli Live at The Ballet with Stuart Matthewman of Sade and Sweetback

Tough night: Ivana and Zaki have an overlapping audience and are playing not only the same night but at basically the same time. What can a man do except complain? If you’re wondering what Twin Danger is though, that’s a new NY-based jazz project by Stuart Matthewman, sax player for Sade and co-founder of mid-90’s neo-soul/trip hop act, Sweetback, with singer, Vanessa Bley. Don’t that “Pointless Satisfaction” track kind of sound like something that might have been on one of the first two Sade albums? (or maybe Everthing But the Girl…..)

[MP3] Tinie Tempah – Trampoline Feat. 2 Chainz (Grandtheft & ETC!ETC! Remix feat. Riff Raff)

The homie, Grandtheft on this new hip-hop/EDM banger:

When I was last in LA in late August, Diplo loaned ETC!ETC! and I his studio to do werk. He had left us some stems to this wild club rap thing he produced “Trampoline” so we decided to load up these vocals and start to mess with em latenight. It was maddd late when we left the session. We had eaten all sorts of snacks. We were sleepy and didn’t really know if what we had done was any good lol. One of those collabs that may or may not have seen the light of day, u know? But, this last couple weeks, we revisited it.. and realized that this beat made us feel some type of way. Remotely, Toronto to LA, we got to polishing it up, getting a ridiculous verse from the Neon Icon… and bringing you this banger.
