Black Eyed Peas – Boom Boom Pow
Ever wondered what a song, in the form of a sexual transmitted infection would sound like? The Music Mag has your answer.
The raw yet mesmerising baseline, backed up by great rapping and melodic singing is enough to hook anyone. They performed it on American Idol, which ashamedly is where I caught it. That being said, this was the finale and had some great performances including the rock legends that are KISS and many others.
Anyway, without further ado, the Boom Boom Pow Live Performance on american idol. Please let us know what you think:
Godspeed You Black Emperor
Anyone heard of Godspeed You Black Emperor? They’re damn good. If you’re in to more contemporary instrumental music, you may like them.
I’m in to a lot of bands like this at the moment. Like Post-Rock i think is the “label” to put them under. kinda similarish to 65daysofstatic, who are another awesome band, but not quite as dancey, more instrumental with big build ups and large crashes, etc.
Their albums tell a v good story, i’ll post a youtube vid to check out a track:
SW4 Festival
Bank Holiday Saturday on the 29th August – SW4 Festival will be in full swing.
Another author on The Music Mag, going by the name of JimbobJoylove will be attending with yours truly, looking to write up a few of the bands that we may not heave heard of. We will also be looking to take some pictures and posting them on here and in full on the forums.
One band in particular I’m looking forward to is Above and Beyond. There are obviously some fantastic acts there like Eric Prydz, Sasha, Arwin Van Buuren and many many others. So if you’re in to dance music it looks to be classic.
£45 for the day and no doubt there will be a fantastic after party as well.
So if you’re looking for something slightly different to Leeds/Reading, Glastonbury, V-Festival and all the other summer gigs, why not try SW4 for a real Ibiza experience in the UK.
