Music Links : Die Antwoord/Celine Dion collaboration, NIN, Drake vs. Common


A quick note about the next couple weeks: I have been overly busy with school related crap so the new material on the blog has been kind of sparse and I apologize for that. But I will make it up to you over the next couple weeks, starting with my much belated top 20 Canadian albums of 2011 list on Friday, which will be split up into three part, and of course lots of new reviews in the coming weeks. And thanks to everyone who has been checking out my blog and making this a success so far.

Die Antwoord wants to team up with Celine Dion. Yeah, you just read that sentence right.

Trent Reznor is taking a break from making movie soundtracks to make new Nine Inch Nails material!

The Drake vs. Common beef confuses the D. Request.

Coachella is sold out already and The Flying Lotus will be releasing a new album this year. So is Kendrick Lamar, Odd Future and Tyler, the Creator, and AraabMuzik.

Das Racist member Heems releases his new mixtape Nehru Jackets. You can grab it here.

Also, a new mixtape from a producer who is affiliated with The Weeknd and the XO crew, Dropxlife has been released on The Weeknd's Tumblr.

The trailer for the LCD Soundsystem documentary, Shutup and Play the Hits.

Taylor Swift's new song sounds like she has decided to join the alt-country crowd. This will probably be the only time I ever plug Taylor Swift.

Also in Youtube related links, the Shins release a new song for the first time in five years: Simple Song.

David Bowie's face is currently currency in Brixton.

 The new Lana Del Ray music video: Born to Die.
