OK GO – This Too Shall Pass
Wow this is a hectic music video! I am not so sure if I like the song, but just take a peak at the actual video! Must have taken quite a while to do!
- Captain AwesomeLocnville @ Ivy League- Vibe! [Pics]
So as I mentioned the other day that Locnville was playing at Ivy League last night, and now I have the update for you!
What a vibe! The entire evening was a success. There were two floors, and both of them were absolutely jam packed!
The music was amazing. Not just Locnville, but all the DJ’s playing before. I got there at about 21:30, and just chilled and appreciated the talents of the DJ’s on show, and oh how my ears melted to the sounds that were put before me.
We headed downstairs to the much bigger area where the stage was, and my ears were spoilt once again. Pascal and Pearce were amazing! The crowd was so confused as to whether they should jam along to the awesome beats or save themselves for Locnville. Needless to say, most ended up giving in to the crazy sounds of Pascal and Pearce.
The atmosphere was awesome the entire night. Their was an expectation that all who attended were going to be graced with a magical experience, and why certainly were not let down!
Pascal and Pearce were laying down the foundations with some awesome tracks and remixes, but also were tempting the crowd by throwing in their own Locnville remixes. They built the atmosphere up extremely well, and the place was buzzing!
I only have one criticism for Locnville. They started their set off extremely slowly. They looked very amped and excited, but it took a while for the crowd to start to pick up their vibe and follow along. Locnville started with a few remixes which were met with very mixed reactions. I think a lot of people were expecting more traditional Locnville music, and didn’t know whether to embrace the remixes or to storm the bar once more.
Dizzee Rascal Vs Nirvana: Stand Up Tall
I found this really cool mash up and I thought I would share it. I quite like it.
Enjoy
Jack Parow – Cooler As Ekke
You simply have to love local flavour. This country is the only place where you can find some banging tunes like this! Jack Parow people! If you can’t speak some Afrikaans mixed with a bit of slang, don’t even try watching this. Seriously, this guy is hilarious!
Tell me that his cap is not pure awesomeness! Maybe I will see if I can buy one with my kalahari voucher I won!
The Holidays Are Here: Get In the Mood
So the holidays are here. FINALLY! I have been waiting for this break for basically the entire year! Its been a long, painful wait, but they have finally arrived. I thought I would just give you a few beats to get you into the party mode. So just sit back, relax and enjoy the awesome sounds of some AWESOME local artists.
Hip Hop Pantsula most South Africans should know. This song always gets me in a chilled mood.
These are the local super stars of the future - locnville. It seems 2oceansvibe has *finally* picked up on the act and is recognizing the amazing talents of these boys. Keep your eye out for their second single…
Enjoy people! Party hard this festive season, but also do so responsibly! We want to have you visiting again!
The Queen of All Muppets
The weekend is not close enough yet, even though it is tomorrow. Since the weekend is hiding from us, I shall brace you with a few laughs. Hopefully this takes your mind of work, and eats the cap of the evil company that is forcing you to work!
Local Superstars of the future – Locnville
I am sure that you have heard this song on the radio. It is quite new and seems fairly mysterious. I heard it a few times and really took a like to it, and made it my mission to find out who it was. It took a while, but I eventually found out that they are local, and they are called Locnville.
Their first single can be watched here. I don’t think the music video does the song justice, but it appears to be doing fairly well on MTVBase already, and it continues to grow on me.
I absolutely love this song at the moment! Their album is released on November 1st so the release is almost upon us. I think I will get my hands on their album as soon as it drops. Head on over to their website and take a peak around. If you are in Cape Town, they will be playing at the Halloween Party at FTV in town. If I wasn’t in the middle of exams I would definitely be there!
I can just tell these guys will be a success. I heard that Andrew and Brian are Reddam old boys? Can anyone verify this?
Oprah’s Flash Mob, David Guetta and Black Eyed Peas
This is simply awesome!
In the beginning I was like that the hell? There is one crazy chick in the front jamming by herself. I seriously thought she was crazy, and I think Oprah did as well, then you zoom onto her and you realize that the people around her are not looking at her like a freak from outer space, and that’s when I clicked that it was planned. I
It is seriously cool though. Oprah didn’t know that it was planned, but that is one hecticly big flash mobs! Take a peak and enjoy the awesomeness of the Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta and yes, Oprah.
Not a bad way to celebrate your 24th season hey? She still has it that women.
Beat Box Pen Style
As you know I play the drums, so naturally anything musically awesome, or something with a hectic drum beat attracts me. A friend found this for me and even though the rapping is not that great, this guy makes up for that with his insane skills with a pen.

The pen clearly is mightier than the sword, or in this case, synthetic drums.
Misheard Lyrics – Sean Paul – Temperature
Have you ever listened to a song and not understood half of the song because you can’t hear the actual lyrics clearly? Well in this video’s case, it address one of Sean Paul’s songs. Quite amusing.
