Listen to Santigold w/ Karen O, CSS are Back, PB&J Post Doc + Watch the New Arctic Monkeys Vid


Epic collaborations only happen every so often. When I read that Santigold and Yeah Yeah Yeah's Karen O had worked on a track together, I almost lost my mind. “Go” is a declaration of sorts, a statement about the “American dream” (the hunt for fame and fortune). The sound is reminiscent of what was heard on her awesome self-titled album. Karen's partner in crime, Nick Zinner is on guitar, while the song was produced by Switch, Q-Tip and the lady herself, Santigold. Its got a synth-heavy beat with a slight punk edge, what's not to love?!

Brazilian dance-rockers CSS are finally returning with their third effort La LiberaciĆ³n, slated for release on August 29. My god, that seems like such a long time away! All we know so far is that the record will feature collaborations with Ratatat. The band has also started touring again, so I can only assume it won't be too much longer til we have some of their new material floating online.
Keep on the lookout!

Swedish trio Peter, Bjorn and John have put together a seven part documentary about the making of their recently released album, Gimme Some. The doc features interviews with each band member and producer Per Sunding. Since Wednesday, the group has been posting one clip a day on their blog. So if you're a fan, make your way over here.

A couple days ago, I reported that Arctic Monkeys released the first single off their upcoming album Suck It And See. They heavy track “Don’t Sit Down ‘Cause I’ve Moved Your Chair” now has a music video. It's psychedelic and gives off somewhat of an old school rock vibe. Watch below.
