Sissy Nobby Record Release Party

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

Sissy Nobby Lay Me Down Cover

“Lay Me Down” is a Sissy Nobby rap track in the vain of “Da Letter” and “Consequences” with raw sexual lyrics and a heartfelt delivery. Produced by Dre Skull, this anthemic, midtempo rap song is equally indebted to the sounds of No Limit and Rap A Lot Records, carrying on a Southern tradition of syrupy synth strings and head nodding bass.

You’ve heard the “Lay Me Down” remixes and it’s finally time to drop the single. Tomorrow night is the Sissy Nobby “Lay Me Down” record release party in New Orleans, Louisiana and Dre Skull, Rusty Lazer and Sissy Nobby will be in the building.

You can order the limited edition vinyl now – only 500 copies.

If you’re in New Orleans, get the full record release party details here.

Bounce For Relief: The Best Of New Orleans Bounce Vol. 2

Bounce For Relief Vol. 2

Cocaine Blunts dropped Bounce For Relief Vol. 1 back in 2005 and they have finally followed it up with Vol. 2 and it’s a big mix.

Here we veer into the gangsta bounce of early Cash Money and another of the stronger labels from that era – Pack. It’s also bookended by two proto-bounce tracks Gregory D & Mannie Fresh’s “Buck Jump Time” and the J Ro J’s brass band “Buck Jump” knock off “Let’s Jump.” Like the first the song selection consists of mostly classics with a few lesser known titles sprinkled in. Sorry about the crackle and fuzz on some tracks, you know how it goes. Please continue to support New Orleans in any way you can.

Renaissance Man Mix For Sixpack France

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

Renaissance Man

Finnish duo Ville and Martti are probably better known to you as Renaissance Man and they’ve made it their mission to bring House music back in a gigantic, fresh way for 2009. In the last six months, they have racked up some stellar releases on Dubsided, Kitsune and Sound Pellegrino, helping revitalize a genre that was hurting for new sounds.

We’ve tapped Renaissance Man to remix Sissy Nobby’s upcoming Mixpak release “Lay Me Down” which should be out by late October. You’ll be hearing much more about Nobby in coming months, but there’s an awesome introduction to the New Orleans Sissy Bounce genre in this XLR8R article. If you want to hear a overview of the genre, I’d advise Dre Skull’s excellent Sissy Bounce Mix for XLR8R.

More details about the Nobby release coming soon, but listen to this jackin’ house mix Renaissance Man did for Sixpack France which they filled with exclusive Renaissance Man bootcuts and re-edits, including a sneak peak of their forthcoming Sissy Nobby remix . Sixpack is also offering an exclusive Renaissance Man inspired t-shirt which you can grab here! Update: I have one, and it is awesome.

Mikey F. Baby
Whats Poppington Everyone? Allow Me To Introduce Myself. My Name Is Mikey. Im From New Orleans, But I Currently Reside In NC. Im 17 & Still In High School [my last year]. But Dont Let The Age Fool You! Womp. Im Really Into Music & Skating. Unlike Some Of These Other Posers, I Been Skating Since I Was 8. Yessir. Music Is One Of My Outlets, Whether Its Me Playing It, Making It, Or Just Straight Up Listening To It.

Dislikes: The Word ‘Swag’, Close Minded People, & Stupid Questions.

Now Moving On To Music…

My Favorite Song Is Grindin’ By Clipse. You Cant Tell Me That Song Dont Have Stillo. Song Was Hot When It First Came Out When I Was Younger & Its Still Hot Now. At Least Every Person has Made That Beat On A Table Somewhere While Their Homies Freestyled To It. Haha. & The Fact That It Was A Neptune Beat Makes It Even Better.

Well, Thats It For Now. Just Thought I’d Let Myself Be Known. Trust, You Wont Forget The Name. Kisses ;)
