Truly brilliant channel on MUZU.TV which features hours of the DMC World DJ Championships down through the years. Most impressive is a 15-year old A-Trak on the way to his win in 1997.

DMC TV on MUZU.

Grizzly Bear on Letterman
Another stunning TV turn for the Brooklyn band who released our album of the year so far in Veckatimest. This version is bolstered by a string quartet.

If you’ve ever wondered what rap music from Finland, Korea, Mongolia, Vietnam sounds like, sample this video which has 30 different raps from 30 different languages across the world.

Julian Casablancas releases trailer
Yes, the Strokes frontman released a teaser video for his upcoming Phrazes For The Young Album which suggests he’s been watching a lot of Tron. 80s futuristic concept album anyone?

The Very Best – W.H.O.A
W.H.O.A or ‘Warm Heart of Africa’ in long-form is the title track from The Very Best – a collaboration between UK dance producers Radioclit and Malawi singer Esau. The track’s uplifting summer vibe is bolstered by a hook provided by Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig.

Frankly weird video for one of the tunes of the year which features the Bears as almost-artificial dummies with exploding heads.

The Funniest Movie Death Scenes
A compilation video of badly done yet hilarious movie deaths which takes in the ultimate Jaws-knockoff Shark Attack 3 and the awful Troll 2.


Barry Obama = Cliff Huxtable?
The Daily Show’s Wyatt Cenac draws the comparisons – both married lawyers, have unrealistically cute daughters, Stevie Wonder sang for them both and they’re both set up to run for eight seasons..
Youtube monster
Remember that game you played when you were younger where you divided up a page into three sections and you took turns drawing parts of a monster? This is the Youtube version of that..

Who would have thought Brooklyn chamber-popsters Grizzly Bear would sound good as a backing band for political hip-hop duo Dead Prez? The Hood Internet that’s who..

This LA white-boy is mining the sounds of classic R&B and Soul with supremely ear-pleasing results.
