The Russian Futurists’ video for “Paul Simon” is out-spinning the Backstreet Boys on Canada’s Muchmusic! The Ruskies are in Sweden, Norway and Finland right now. They return to Toronto mid-november. Look for a Wavelength show in December followed by a Canadian Tour. And then – big news in the new year. The Ruskies also just did a remix for Stars!
Cadence Weapon “Breaking Kayfabe”, the debut album by the untouchable Edmonton producer/rapper is coming for real. December 6 will be the day you can go out and buy the Cadence Weapon album. There will be shows, people will be writing about Cadence, the whole deal, soon. Until then you should peep the Cadence Weapon remix of Do They Know It’s Halloween. I’m not sure where you might find it – Vice promised us it would be on their single then they totalled pulled a kife move and didn’t put it on. Yet, everywhere you will search on the internet – it’s Cadence’s remix that people are playing, so i’m sure you’ll find it!In fact, here.
The Cansecos have finished their new album Juices! It’s coming out in the new year but we’ll get you some shit before then…somehow.
Team Upper Class flew across the pond to London last month to take in some Caribou/Russian Futurist shows, make some friends, meet some people, shake some hands, get drunk and have our pockets picked in a new place. It was a ridiculously good time. Shout outs to all our new friends – David C, Dean T, Ollie J, Matt J, Paul E, Mark W, Katie D, Mel B, Garreth R, Jane M, Au Revoir Simone, Stephen B, Paddy F, Lee C, Ewan, Nathan B, Jonnie D, Tony M, and all you others that i’ve left out. And big ups to all you familiars that took care of us while we were there – Dan S, Ryan S, Pete M, Natasha K, Matt H, Scott F, and everyone else. YES! Thanks too, to Anders and Kalle in Sweden who are helping us out monstrously. Thanks to Nike, who, once again will use some songs of ours on some shit and give us shoes. Thanks to James @ Heavy for making that happen!
