I almost never post anything out of Philly, but that lineup is ill. Just insane, Scottie B, K Swift, Diplo, Emynd & Bo Bliz, Blaqstarr, DJ Class, King Tutt, Say Wut and more. Plus there is going to be a special guest announced the day of the party. Its at the legendary Dox (Paradox), goes til 5 am, byob, kegs on the floor, breakfast at 5 am with almost every single club producer still banging the beats. I’m excited to say the least. Holler at Hotwire for a hotel downtown/inner harbor area. Or grab a bed at the hostel for $25/night. So worth it. Plus its Artscape weekend, so check Bawlmore out. Buy tickets now
Bonus:
Unruly Sampler Mix. First half from Scottie B, Second half from K Swift

Brand new video for the Black Ghosts’ Repetition Kills You off of their upcoming self titled album. Repetition features Damon Albarn of Blur/Gorillaz fame. A number of remixes already floating around, I picked up this Diplo remix from Music For Robots. Its a real slow burner, slowing down the original almost into the range of some of his old Florida stuff. Almost. Black Ghosts album is out July 7th in the UK on Southern Fried and July 8th on IAmSound in the US. Black Ghosts are also touring throughout the UK and US in July, check their myspace for details.

The Inquirer just released their Spring music announcing 8 in ‘08 to watch out for and it features some of our favorites on the list including the power couple above.
The YMD: set for the spring release of the hilarious Excuse Me, This Is the Yah Mos Def on Princeton’s My Pal God records. Santogold: Santogold, her self-titled debut, comes out in April. Nouveau Riche: A new EP is due next month, and a full-length by year’s end. They play Silk City, with TuPhace, on Feb. 12. Diplo: putting the finishing touches on a Brazilian music movie called Favela on Blast that dazzles even as a work in progress. He’s got a solo album coming with vocal tracks from artists as varied as Cat Power and rapper Bun B, and a reggae dancehall album with British DJ Switch. And, oh yeah, he’s spinning on the MySpace tour as the opening act for Justice, at the Electric Factory March 10. Spank Rock and Amanda Blank: both will have albums out on the Downtown label.
