I love this song and now it`s been properly used in my opinion.
Back in the days when I used to hop on the skateboard a lot I saw this video by the company Real and it had a part with like the best skateboard pros riding the streets of L.A. or S.F. and Good Music by The Roots was part of the soundtrack. That was like the coolest shit ever. This gets close, though I don`t even have a bike at the moment. SoLo, I need my bike. Please help me, brother.

Audio: Streets Of Beige - Jacques Renault // SOB.012

Sob.012 Jacques Renault by Streets Of Beige on Mixcloud

The four pillars of Beige have always been flaunted but disco still hasn't been represented on the mix front. So it's a great pleasure to have our first one curated by none other than Jacques Renault, a New York disco legend who transcends his US roots to bring slavish, daring beats to UK shores. Wrapped in silken swing, he slings samples off the hook with the delights of the oft-sampled Imagination making a sly appearance and half-time jive and jazz giving the mix ample stomp to see the night off.

Audio: Grup Ses Beats - Atom + Bir Dost Bir Arkadas + Mimar + Puf de 2010 // Turkey

Good Guy Kerim Kabus peeped this via twitter some days ago. Group Ses Beats, a prodcuer team from Turkey serves damn fresh beats, you will recognize the cultural roots at the drums or the samples, also you will find some freaky audio layers with electro spirit. However, really dope beats. Saygılarımla! (Album will be available on Vynil)! ISTANKOOL!

video: Efdemin - There Will Be Singing

Efdemin, There Will Be Singing (Chicago) from jutojo on Vimeo.

the video relates to the musical influence of the city on Efdemin's new album "Chicago" and the yearning for a city's modernism known only from a physical and temporal distance through books.

As you may know, my love for music goes beyond funkydrummer- drums with nice rhymes on top. But as we call ourselves RAPohneLizenz, I try to stay near by the roots. This post is an exeption: straight up house music. But what catched my intention in the first place was the exceptional video. How simple is this? how good is this? Shot (with the Canon 5D) by he always brilliant Jutoju.
By the way, the LP from EFDEMIN is also worth a listen.
