Blaqstarr
New Music: Blaqstarr – Oh My Darling
It’s been a while since we’ve seen Baltimore’s Blaqstarr . After a successful run at SXSW in 2009 it seems like homie disappeared. Actually, he was out in LA doing some work for M.I.A, who eventually signed him to her NEET Label along side fellow Baltimorean Rye Rye. Since M.I.A. is on her grind, is [...]
SXSW Interview: Blaqstarr
DJ Blaqstarr Interview from Couch Sessions on Vimeo. One of the more fascinating parts of the True Genius on the Couch SXSW experience occurred when I had the opportunity to sit with DJ Blaqstarr, or rather, the evolved Blaqstarr, who unleashed upon SXSW new solo R & B material, with a voice that emotes mood [...]

Video: M.I.A. vs Blaqstarr – Down In The Hole
Having M.I.A. on cover Tom Wait’s Down In The Hole (which we all know is from the Wire) sounds like its ripe for disaster. However, this track is simply brilliant. I’m really liking this song, and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because of its utter simplcity? Maybe because the video cost $9.95 to make? [...]

SINGLE REVIEW: “HUFF + PUFF” by Just A Band
This joint right here is real sexy-like. Your body will automatically go into autopilot: your head will start boppin’, and you’ll break into a soulful yet swingin’ two-step (think of the Robert Palmer video girls…on speed). The very beginning of the song reminds me of Supernature-era Goldfrapp with heavy synths keys, some la-la-las, and a [...]
