Die Antwoord's new video for "Evil Boy"

I haven't got much time lately to update the blog: that doesn't mean I won't update it anymore or that I've stopped my musical journey.
This time I bring you south-african's most contemporary curious hip hop group, Die Antwoord. This time I bring you their most recent videoclip, for their song "Evil Boy". Pure genius. Oh, and did you know they did a live performance with Richard D. James? True story.
Their videoclip got banned both from Vimeo and Youtube, sorry. Check their song "Evil Boy" below:

[upcoming bands] Halloween

Halloween is one of the best portuguese hip hop acts. I don't know since when he's been rapping about portuguese criminal reality, street life, ghettos, street violence, drug addiction, prostitution, etc.
Check out these songs (click the one you want to hear, it'll direct you to youtube):
-No Love;
-Procriar;
-O meu Par;
-Dia de um dread de 16 anos;
-Bang bang;

Sugestion: Use a free translator to understand some of this music, if you don't speak portuguese.

Next, I'll put here a video of Halloween:

Nurse with Wound "Rock 'n' Roll Station"

This record seems to fuse spoken word with hip hop, but of course with this awkward NWW touch attached to it. Think of Saul Williams making musique concrète while improvising lyrics and shouting them. This would be far more strange than that thought of yours (if you could imagine it, at least). I can imagine why Steven Stapleton made a record like this: because of his hip hop fascination (particularly Snoop Dogg, I presume).
The track list is the following:
1
Rock 'n Roll Station 6:38

Written-By - Jacques Berrocal* , Vince Taylor
2
The Self Sufficient Sexual Shoe 5:53
3
Two Golden Microphones 17:03
4
A Silhouette And A Thumbtack (Dance In Hyperspace) 9:56
5
R+B Through Collis Brone 5:52
6
Finsbury Park, May 8th, 1:35 pm (I'll See You In Another World) 13:01

I highly recommend this album.

Below, I included a live video of Jean-Hervé Péron from FAUST performing along with Steven Stapleton. The song featured here is "Rock 'n Roll Station" (a bizarre spoken-word song, kind of reminds me an experimental hip-hop side):

Caribou "Swim"

While diving deep into this sea of sounds, I realize how Daniel Snaith, Caribou's mastermind, has this peculiar gift of turning every sound into something catchy and audible. Like if most found sounds were turned into a beat taken away from a pop song.
Let's say this album has been reviewed by most music critics, magazines and other "trustful" sources above 80% in average. It's a must.
It is his first new album of material since 2008 Polaris Music Prize-winning Andorra.

The track list is the following:
  1. "Odessa" – 5:15
  2. "Sun" – 5:44
  3. "Kaili" – 4:41
  4. "Found Out" – 3:18
  5. "Bowls" – 6:20
  6. "Leave House" – 5:11
  7. "Hannibal" – 6:14
  8. "Lalibela" – 2:25
  9. "Jamelia" – 3:58
My favourite tracks are: Odessa, Bowls and Jamelia.

Below is Odessa's videoclip:
