I’ve been playing this track in my club sets and on my radio show all summer long. Its released on 26th October on Ministry Of Sound’s Data Records.

Armand Van Helden has always been great at finding those catchy hooks in old disco records and reviving them for the kids. Its nice to hear him go back to his old production style.

Check the video out.

I would never have expected him to do this for some reason. Gwan Obama!

For those of you who are celebrating this holiday….Happy Diwali!

My good friends Kunal Merchant and Seif Al-Din from NYC, (my second home), have put together this wicked remix project of Jay-Z’s 2007 album, American Gangster. They go under the production name of Music Without Borders and they’re an incredibly talented duo that you need to keep and eye on!

The album is called Hindustani Gangster and here is a little blurb about the project:

Inspired by Indian cinema of the 70′s and Jay-Z’s critically acclaimed concept album, “American Gangster,” “Hindustani Gangster” tells the passionate tale of a Mumbai hustler’s sordid lifestyle.

Through the culmination of Jay’s great story, and sounds that range from Bollywood to Bhangra – via heavy emotive melodies and basslines – Music Without Borders has crafted a piece that is intended for the true music connoisseur.

Download the full album on 17th October from http://www.hindustanigangster.com and you can preview tracks on the site now.

Meanwhile, here’s the artwork.
