Willy Joy - Ethnic Food Mix

A few weeks ago I asked Willy Joy if he wanted to make a mix for Still-Listen. I think the Willy Joy "Flybynight" mix is one of the better crafted full length mixes I have heard. If you don't have a copy of 'Flybynight' buy one from the TTL for 7 dollars. Willy Joy's mix he made for SLTGM is called "Ethnic Food". Make sure you read what Willy Joy has to say about the mix, it makes it even more enjoyable to listen to. Below the description you will find the mix available in the usual formats as well as a tracklisting. I wanted to compile some of my favorite songs that used samples of foreign music or had foreign guests in what seemed to me a kind of non-sequitor way. I guess there are two ways to look at this - either American musical imperialism - appropriating other culture's sounds for our own without considering where the sounds came from in the first place, or it's cutting-edge producers and musicians making that next shit and breaking down walls (i.e. American radio needs this shit.) I don't claim to make a statement either way, but I will say I love most of the tracks in this mix and think they're fucking great. At the end I try my own hand at it with excellent/terrible results using a classic racially insensitive song with a not-so-classic house-ification of what might have originally been "gypsy" music. I also learned a little while making this mix - I was unaware of this woman named Raje Shwari who was Timbaland's protege for a while in the early 00's. She does the vocals on "Indian Flute" and "The Bounce" as well as a lot of other Timbaland bangers produced around that time. Anyway, her voice is great and I'm trying to track down more from her. If anyone has her promo single "Indian Style", holler at me or link it up! Track Listing: R. Kelly feat. Cam'Ron - Thoia Thoing (remix) Rich Boy - Get To Poppin' Timbaland & Magoo - Indian Flute Jay-Z - The Bounce Punjabi MC feat. Jay-Z - Beware Of The Boys (remix) Erick Sermon feat.

Rich Boy on Rap City yesterday (1/31) going over "This is Why I'm Hot" I posted info on Willy Joy a while back and now he returns with a new remix. If you haven't yet grabbed his mix 'Flybynight, Vol. 1' you should. It is for sale at the Turn Table Lab for only 7 bucks. Willy Joy is also locking down some shows in Chicago right now, so keep up to date with his happenings over at his myspace page.

Here is a Rick Boy interview from MTV Sucker Free. Here is an interesting article written by Courtney Love about what music piracy really is.. Tyra Banks on being fat. Tyra is pretty honest here, and you gotta respect that. Anyone interested in a Super Mario Firefox theme Finally, according to HHNLive Ja Rule is set to appear in the next Saw movie due October 26, 2007. As a big fan of these movies at first I was less than thrilled, and then I read that he will be in the opening scene. Those familiar with these movies know what usually happens in the opening scene.

Willy Joy - FLYBYNIGHT

Willy Joy might have met me before, I'm not sure. We both lived in Boston, we both lived in Minneapolis, but now he lives in Chicago and I in Minneapolis. Anyway... Listen to the trailer to get a better idea of what Willy Joy is really doing on 'FLYBYNIGHT Vol.1'. I liken it to the cover to his mix, he takes a Rush cover and turns it lots of colors, even changes the image before he done. Go to his myspace, add him to your friends and buy the mix.
