The Black Keys vs. Big Boi

by oz on January 25, 2011

I have a soft spot for mash-ups. I haven’t decided if these are guilty pleasures or not, but I have respect for the effort that DJ’s must go through just to find cross-genre music that compliments one another. This DJ Wick-it guy nailed it in his mash-up of The Black Keys’ Brothers and Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico Dusty. You can download all the tracks via zip file at Mashville.

The Black Keys – Brothers, Win a Limited Edition Copy [Album Review, Free Shit]

May 18, 2010

The Black Keys may have released the best album of 2010. Like every album from the two-piece DIY blues rockers, Brothers is fierce and explosive effort combining Pat Carney’s reckless drumming abandon with Dan Auerbach’s big guitar riffs and howling vocals.
