>> THE LONELY ISLAND FT. T-PAIN – I’m on a Boat: Raise the anchor and off we go! America’s favourite new pranksters are back with yet another hilarious single! Parodying the apparent nautical-fixation in hip-hop videos these days (such as Akon’s ‘I’m So Paid’) these cheeky fellows join up with rapper T-Pain to espouse the joys and prestige of, quite simply, being on a boat. Too good to describe, just check it out for yourself! Be sure to get into this track before it sails away!
>> ESKIMO JOE - Foreign Land: Reputedly written about Heath Ledger’s untimely death, this haunting track proves the songwriting skill of Eskimo Joe, solidifying the importanc of their place in the Australian music industry, 12 years after their formation. With a heavy bassline and a flowing piano, this song fits perfectly with its dark and brooding filmclip, apparently set in a sort of underwater dimension of ethnic dancers, jellyfish and exploding invertebrates. As deep as the ocean, this track is also guaranteed to get your patrons dancing!
>> BLACK EYED PEAS - Boom Boom Pow: Sparse and minimalistic, this brilliant new track is guaranteed to heat up dancefloors across the country and the world! Australia plays a very special role in this song, with group member Will.I.Am declaring on Merrick and Rosso’s radio show that the song was heavily influenced by the electro sounds he heard in the nightclubs of Sydney on a recent visit. This futuristic track is so three-thousand-and-eight, so don’t be two-thousand-and-late – make sure you get it this millennium. Even better – get it this month!
>> KID CUDI - Day N Nite (Crookers Remix): This amazing remix of hip-hop artist Kid Cudi’s debut single by Italian duo Crookers is an absolute killer! Mixing, a constant, infectious beat with a steady lyrical rhythm, this fresh electro track is set to be unforgettable without becoming tired. Proving to be a non-stop hit around the world, this one will have your patrons dancing all day – and all night!
