Lil Jon ft. LMFAO – Outta Your Mind

Tonight was a landmark show for So You Think You Can Dance because of what transpired when Alex Wong, a trained ballet dance from Vancouver, British Columbia did with a Napoleon and  Tabitha D’umo hip hop routine which saw him dancing with all star Stephen “Twitch” Boss.   It was nothing short of spectacular, you could feel the energy from the start it and  never let up.    This was pure magic and the track they danced to was, “Outta Your Mind” by Lil Jon featuring LMFAO.

Mark Ronson – Bang Bang Bang (ft. MNDR & Q-Tip)

Took me a couple of listens but I finally figured out who MNDR (pseudonym of Amanda Warner) reminds me of on this track, it’s Missing Person’s lead singer, Dale Bozzio – check her  out here:  “Walking in LA“.
So Mark Ronson (as in Grammy winner – produce of the year 2008 for Amy Winehouse’s, “Back to Black”) is set to release a new full length titled, “Record Collection”, from which this is the first single.  And damn, it’s good.   Great jam for summer with its breezy vibe and 80’s esque keyboards.   Mark gets help on this track from not only MNDR but also Q-TIP.  This is an automatic for my iPod.

Mouth’s Cradle – Front Porch

From the intro alone, you’re instantly grabbed and then slowly pushed along a whimsical “old-tyme” voyage, which is lead by a broken piano and radio filtered vocals.   I love it!   For fans of Dan Black and Esser, this is a must hear.

Mouth’s Cradle – Front Porch

Bio:

Mouth’s Cradle is making waves; seamlessly combining pop and hip-hop into a unique blend. But their mix is not an acquired taste. The duo, both who are students attending Syracuse University, is currently featured on the iTunes Store’s “New and Noteworthy” as well as Pop page. Mouth’s Cradle is undoubtedly on its way to emerging as a leader in the new class of college artists, who create buzz for themselves while sitting through lectures. If you can imagine the musical equivalent of a sugar-rush, you can probably get a solid picture of Mouth’s Cradle

You can pick up their album on iTunes:
