DON’T SLEEP: Madeon “Pop Culture (Live Mashup)” [BEAT VIDEO]

Madeon recently posted this video on YouTube that I slept on because he doesn’t really make my kind of music typically. I saw Double 0 from Kidz In The Hall post a link to it on Twitter and I decided to actually watch it this time. I’m impressed to say the least (even though the selections Madeon used are the opposite of my typical taste). The actual execution itself is crazy. According to his YouTube info, Madeon used FL Studio & Ableton Live, played on a Novation Launchpad & Novation Zero SL MKII. I just think it’s ill even though I’m not with this vaporub inside the surgical mask & glowsticks shit…

DON’T SLEEP: MIMS x Dibia$e “Live In Montreal (7.8.2011) @ Monde Ose Factory” [AUDIO + VIDEO]

On July 8th, the homie Dibia$e performed in Montreal @ the joint Music Is My Sanctuary/ArtBeat event with DJ Lexis of MIMS (that’s how all of these blogs got the audio & footage from said event plus why you see an MIMS in the lower right hand corner of the artwork above) plus Guilty and a live beat set by Shash’u. I know the West Coast Llamas (Nasrockwell & Dibia$e) thoroughly enjoyed Montreal & murked a fair amount of poutine while they were there.

The Monde Ose Factory looked live as hell based on this footage Lexis provided of the event.  I know Dibia$e enjoyed his time there and he even played beats from his project sampling 90’s R&B that we talked about on The Scrunchface Show a while back! Word. Salute Lexis of Music Is My Sanctuary for providing the content. I saw that because I’ve seen this up on several sites where they neglected to do any legwork or even credit MIMS. Without any further ado, I present to you all the star of the show:
