[Listen] Beck - "Paradisco" (Live Recording From 3/26/2009)
Remember yesterday when we hooked you up with a listen of that new Charlotte Gainsbourg song "Paradisco" that Beck wrote and produced for her upcoming album Stage Whisper? Well turns out that a few years back our friend with two turntables and a microphone actually tried the song out for himself at a show in Tokyo back on March 26, 2009 at Zepp Tokyo. While I'm a little biased as a Beck fanatic, I think I might like Gainsbourg's sexed up version of the song better. Of course now that I've listened to both a few times I can't help but hear twinges of "Cellphones Dead" + Modern Guilt in this newer version. It could just be me, though.
Stage Whisper is out December 13th (December 5th in France).
Special thanks to the Beck superfans that out fangirl me every day over on Whiskeyclone.
[Listen] Charlotte Gainsbourg & Beck - "Paradisco"
The ever-premiering Pitchfork has a new taste of the upcoming Charlotte Gainsbourg double-LP release Stage Whisper which is out on December 13th (December 5th in France) courtesy of Because Music / Elektra. This new track, "Paradisco" is one of many collaborations that Gainsbourg did with Beck for the album, who wrote and produced the song. The track also features drum programming from Cole M.G.N. of The Samps/former Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffitti fame.
I am thoroughly enjoying hearing this slightly ramped up yet more alluring side of Gainsbourg. It's definitely a great step forward after Terrible Angels which dropped back in October.
You can also check out more tracks from Stage Whisper over on Air France's Facebook page.
[Listen] Charlotte Gainsbourg - "Trick Pony (Boys Noize Remix)"

Word on the street is that Charlotte has tapped Beck one again to help her out with her new album. No other news on that as of yet, so check back for more details.

Jay signs with Jay would be the headline on this one right? Anyways, super dope emcee Jay Electronica announced that he has signed the dotted line with Jay-Z's RocNation. And in celebration of this joyous occasion he dropped 2 new jewels, one appropriately titled "The Announcement" and the second was rumored to influence his career move after Jay sent it over "Shiny Suit Theory" featuring Jay-Z, The Dream and oddly enough Air/Beck collaborator Charlotte Gainsbourg. Check out both fresh cuts below.
