early nineties awesomeness.

aka b'more straight up aka incredible.
aka i can't wait til BDO sideshows.

pretty ordinary

is she playing BDO again? the whole damn lineup is gonna be recycled!

DON'T UNLEASH MORE SHIT ON THE WORLD PLEASE M.I.A. THX

dont think mia is comin to bdo. but there's some cafe amazoid to be added to the line up, don't worry.

MIA. Awesome live. Except for that guy who kept on screaming out "YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" For no apparent reason.

Average. Doesn't really go anywhere. I like some of her tracks, but her worst ones seem to lack dynamics, and just seem content to plod along without variation.

2 stars..

Not her best effort. Is the new album done? Last I heard she got turned back at US customs and couldn't hook up with Timbaland in the studio.

apparently: not due out until next year

apparently: no timbaland. switch/diplo/mia produced

'parently the new album's called 'Bird Flu' - cause, you know - the beats are gonna kill everyone. or somesuch.

finally got round to hearing this and i like. although it's so stripped back that it almost sounds a bit unfinished. maybe it's just the low bitrate, but it is a bit flat

also, a short clip of another new song, from ilm: talk about moi ... seems coool on first listen

a few more listens in and XR2 is fantastic. haven't listen to this remix yet, but..

MIA - XR2 Diplo Turbo Remix

neeeeeeed more bits or bites or whatever you call them

OH GOD I BET SHE PLAYS AN OPULENT PARTY NEXT MONTH

I think she's teh radness but just wanted to warn doodz not to get expectations sky high for her live show. Think party time as opposed to album-level excellence. Hope diplo comes out also. His fabric live is aces.

yeah i know,, i kinda hated her show at bdo and ended up selling my ticket to her sideshow. but i'm loving the new direction

i hafta check out some of these fabric mixes, the new rub n tug one sounds like it could be amazing too

don't be silly scissors she's not gangsta enough for that place

neither are all the white kidz

"..."

WHY NOT!?! SCISSORS, ARE YOU A "PLAYA HATER"

is that lakes?

hahahahahahhahahahahahahah

no

I reckon you might need to dig a little deeper, chrissy

so you want it to be more aggressive and deep, like you chris?

so you want it to be more aggressive and deep, like you chris?

Hell no. I want it to be more wimpy and emo/interospective

M.I.Emo.
...could be marketable

ANY introspection would be nice but i guess that would defeat the point.

come around feat. timbaland gets an airing on the final episode of entourage s4. not club background music either, but a prominent part of the soundtrack

is that the one when he says he wants to get into her tee-pee?

i wonder if he realises she's sri lankan, not indian, let alone american indian. she should fully sick her tamil tiger dad on his ignorant arse.

I thought the point was to be as ignorant as possible in the music? wouldn't want to get in the way of the dumb

hey brimstone, this record is shit hot. jump on it or hop out hater.

this record is great and yes, very addictive. been sending it round and round whilst in the car. i love that one with the abo kids singing about fishing. thankz for the correction ChrisB, cunt.

Paper Planes is def one of my favourite songs of the year.

same Friends Forever. and it goes extremely well with driving around with the windows down in the sunny spring weather... that wistful sound it has, magic

yeah paper planes = theme song to this summer

the other night i was browsing moshtix and i saw that there were 2 tickets left to the mia sidey

cant afford it but i impulse bought anyway. stoked.

anyone know when she's on tonight?

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU? DON'T REMIX WHERE IS MY MIND. FOR FUCKS SAKE

TYLER DURDEN WILL KILL YOUR ASS

she didn't remix it; she reinterpreted it.

still not won over, huh?

i just heard this on FBi...its just... thats one of THOSE SONGS. jeezus. not EVERYTHING has to be made more 'dancable' and turned into a 'banger'. leave some shit alone

it's just a song. it's not a law of physics.

it potentially might be about ping-pong, i suppose.

Just heard Paper Planes properly. Yes. I like. Oh yes.
