The Weeknd – Same Old Song (Paper Diamond Remix)

Let the bass creep curiously into her ears. Around her throat it will kiss reckless beats down in-between her … Yes, this remix is a bit X-rated and as funky as it can get. Paper Diamond is skillful with cutting open a song and inserting nuclear powered artificial hearts like a surgeon at the top of his game. Watch it nah! Don’t get to close to the speakers they’re possessed with the P to the D and his beats will cut cha. Here, Alex B has taken The Weeknd‘s already bangin’ track and poured rocket fuel all over it and the song ignites; like Hendricks taunting flames over his Strat. But we ain’t roasting marshmallows around here (or guitars). No, we’re bringing bodies together like puzzle pieces. Paper diamond + The Weeknd = Vicious!  Like I said, “Watch it nah!” Peace.

Cherub – Monogamy

Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber are at it again and as promiscuous as ever, musically speaking that is. A good tune gets around, and it just can’t help making a reputation for itself, traveling from one ear to another.  J.K. and J.H. have a knack for taking a song and transforming each note into pure seduction. Collectively known as Cherub these guys “do” music like porn stars have sex. And like their namesake implies they are spreading, if not love, then a whole lot of pheromone laden passion around your ear-space. With their latest release “Monogamy,” the first single from their forthcoming Mom & Dad LP they are setting a tone. And the tone is both risqué and stylishly ribald; and when you’re talking about bump-n-grind music those are good attributes to have. Cherub is making a name for themselves as the music to soundtrack booty chasing nights and covert rendezvous to meet up with your favorite friend-with-benefits. So, pimps and pimpettes listen up. Cherub is playing your song. Peace. Continue reading “Cherub – Monogamy”
