From Matt and Kim’s twitter page:
For yer Halloween pre-game… Watch our zombie dance party video again! -Matt and Kim
Matt and Kim, Soulja Boy, and Andrew W.K. have risen from the dead to throw a raging dance party in a morgue. The mortician has left for the night, the limbs are fresh and there’s formaldehyde on ice. Check out the brand new video for “I’m A Goner.”
With our continuing pre-festival coverage of DeLuna Fest, we bring you a finale of acts to key in on.

Matt & Kim
If you need that quick burst of rising energy to lead you into the rest of Friday night of the DeLuna, look no further than the evening performance by duo Matt & Kim. Infectious, energetic, subtly kinetic… all things that describe the sights and sounds that you will be in store for by catching this act.

I had the privilege of sitting down with two of my favorites, the lovely Matt & Kim, during the soundcheck for their sold-out show at New York’s Webster Hall (one of two). I talked to the super-happy twosome about how they met, the new album, and kim’s…er…unique ability to pee while standing up.

Gangster Never Left
A concise study in Westcoastsynthesizerbeachbumgangstermusic, as interpreted by Killer Reese One and Troublemaker.
King Fantastic’s debut album, Finger Snaps and Gun Claps, will be released June 15th on Hollyrock, through digital distributor DashGo, and direct-to-fan platform Topspin Media.
King Fantastic consists of two prolific West Coast artists: Killer Reese One and Troublemaker. Killer Reese One is one half of Los Angeles rap group Bleu Collar, and is not only a gifted lyricist, but also an accomplished fine artist who has contributed works to openings in Southern California. Troublemaker is an internationally known DJ and producer, also from the City of Angels, who has toured and worked with artists across the musical spectrum and received critical acclaim for his remixes of artists such as Johnny Cash, Linkin Park, Matt and Kim featuring De La Soul, and Nina Simone.
As two Los Angeles natives who grew up listening to hip hop, and specifically West Coast gangster rap, they have come together on a modernized ode to the music that inspired them. The genesis and genius of their work is the minimalistic lyrics and production, which come crispy and clean, and hard and heavy, with every song.
In support of the upcoming album, here is a free mp3 download of the song “Why? Where? What?” which is an excellent representation of the direction of the album. Stay tuned for the official music video for this song coming soon as well….
“Words cannot describe the amount of happiness this song brings me. I consider De La Soul to be the greatest group in the history of hip hop. And, growing up and getting into music production, never did I think I would have the opportunity to work with them. Well, all that changed with this here remix.” -DJ Troublemaker
indie-pop hit + electro beats + legendary rappers = priceless
