File Under: Rock The Party

Here at Airbag Radio we are big fans of music that pushes boundaries, exposes the creator (or Creator) and challenges the listener. But, sometimes you just gotta cut loose and indulge in some fun. For those moments when you're seeking pure pop exuberance, we highly recommend Girl Talk, mashup DJ extraordinaire. Girl Talk is known for shaking together the most unlikely of musical combinations into on hell of a party. His newest album, Feed The Animals, combines over 300 samples into an hour long party jam. This one's also pay what you want, Radiohead-style. All the fun of pop music, none of the guilt. Check it out here!

FYI...

...there is a new film forthcoming from the producer of Paris, Je T'aime. This one's called New York, I Love You and is apparently the sequel to the former. However, based on the trailer, we may be sitting this one out. "Why?," you ask. Well it's just that we don't recall the first film being so focused on the city that it served to honor. Rather the city served as an elegant backdrop to each unfolding story. Based on the trailer, this one's all about the city and all it's magnificence. Don't get us wrong, we love New York, but it seems that the heart of Paris Je T'aime has been lost in translation. We've got our fingers crossed that this is just a bad representation. Decide for yourself. See Trailer Below. Release date: 2.13.2009

So Long...

Words simply can't do justice. Leroi was great. He'll be missed.

Jay-Z and Oasis Come Together

That's right! The feuding Titans have put down their fists and hit the studio together for a new music project titled OJayZis. OK, so, maybe it's not exactly like that. Oasis and Jay-Z actually have nothing to do with OJayZis other than that they are responsible for all of the tunes mashed together by Cookin' Soul for this mashup project. It's not quite The Grey Album, but it's pretty good. Check it out here. Let us know what you think. And for more Jay-Z/Oasis mashups, check out DJ Danny Diggz work on "Jackin' Jay-Z."

Quote To Remember

"I came to this world with nothing, and I'll leave with nothing but love. Everything else is just borrowed." -Mike Skinner aka The Streets
