[Event] TONIGHT in Toronto: Kelis Live at the Hoxton (June 11)

This track feels more Fish N Chips than Fish Fry to me. It’s like a britpop, mid-tempo chugger with a little country-bluegrass twang in the mix. Maybe it’s appropriate then that she’s playing a club called The Hoxton tonight (June 11)! That song description makes it sound horrific but it actually ain’t too bad but maybe not what long-time fans (like me!) are looking for from Kelis?? Hopefully we’ll get what made us fall in love with her at the show. CLICK HERE for show details.

[MP3] Pharrell feat. BOY/FRIEND & Alicia Keys – Know Who You Are (MNTNrmx)

No disrespect to BOY/FRIEND and their producer, MNTN who hop on this radical remaking of this track, “Know Who You Are” but I’ma just stick with a pic of the original artists who made it, Pharrell and Alicia Keys for the pic in this post!

[MP3 + Music Video] Harrison – Akira

Saw this kid, Harrison last night down at the Field Trip Discovery showcase at The Drake Underground. 18 years old and from right here in Toronto, his beats are sick! He had an amazingly beautiful and diverse crowd dancing non-stop to his edits and new, mostly instrumental tracks incorporating 80s R&B and boogie, electronic, nu-house & disco, funk and anything else that gets people moving. Kid is the truth, belee’dat! Amazing video (above) for his “Akira” track (from the When It’s Bright EP) too.
