Don’t you just love Barbra Streisand. Best-selling female recording artist of all time, actor extraodinaire, and the driving force behind this amazing new Duck Sauce* track.  While this intoxicating funk house techno groove makes one wonder as to why Barbra Streisand, the TF crew posits that the title refers to a Barbra Streisand sample cleverly used within the melody of the song.  What that song is we still don’t know. Anyway here’s a clip of A-Trak spinning it at Ultra this past weekend.  This track isn’t out anywhere as of yet, so enjoy the clip!

*Duck Sauce = Armand Van Helden and A-Trak making house music while eating chinese food.

Hi. We’re back. Here’s Pix and Vids and Music.

Boys Noize vs. Erol Alkan

David Guetta – The World Is Mine> Love is Gone

As a Philadelphia native, I am proud of those famous for championing the nation’s first capital’s music scene (Chubby Checker, Boyz II Men, Daryl Hall (the one who got all the ladies), Teddy Pendergrass, Eve, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes (RIP), Santogold, Schoolly D, The Roots, and of course everyone’s favorite- The Bloodhound Gang).  Despite the wide variety in this lengthy list, one of my personal hometown heroe’s, Dr. Dog, is sadly often forgotten. Well, not for long.  The group that got its start after leaving their place of prototypical hipster employment-the local Utrecht Art Supply store- in 1999, has recently gained a national (and even International) following.

Dr. Dog’s newest album “Shame, Shame” is set for an April 6th release date. For the first time the band looked to an outside producer, Rob Schnapf (the man who helped create the sounds of Elliott Smith and Beck), and the album is sure to reflect their ever-evolving sound.

Here are a few pieces from the new album: “Shame, Shame”

Stranger

Shadow People

Unbearable Why

And a Few Oldies:

From

The Rabbit, the Bat & the Reindeer : Personal Favorite

Keep A Friend : “Even gluttons got to eat. Well I ain’t weak, but I hunger for your love. And enough it ain’t enough”

The Ark : “Man he called for war. So i built a gun and i joined the corps. Love she asked for more. But what i gave only made her poor”

TF’s head honcho, Brett (AKA Bobby Bukkake, DJ Tanner, ReBoXx, Brit), along with the TF crew, celebrated his birthday this weekend in Miami at Ultra 12.  First time in history that this legendary electronic music festival has sold out!  50,000 people dancing for two days straight.  Unbelievable artists, sick light shows, and ridiculously tasty corn dogs.  More reviews coming soon. Happy Birthday Brett!
