Buffalo Stance

Thanks to Kool Kyle Starchild of Funk 'n Waffles for showing us this video, lovin it! The original "Buffalo Stance" by Neneh Cherry is priceless, but Buraka Som Sistema kicked it up to the nth degree with this remix! Check out the colorfully funky video below.

Planet Rump X Great Tiger X Will Sheridan tonight!

We are super amped to announce our very special show tonight at Silent Barn. We have been collaborating with Great Tiger and Will Sheridan for months, doing remixes, featured verses, guest guitars, tamborines and shakers on each others tracks, and just being all around superfans of each other! Tonight, we've put together an epic feast for your eyes and ears, so come check it out and shake your body down!

To get a little taste of what's in store, download and rock out to this version of our Humping Without Warning: Great Tiger Remix. Nasty synth bassline and wicked guitar riffs! Rrrrraaaaarrrr!

It's goin down tonight at Silent Barn. We hit the stage at 11pm, after a fierce all-night lineup from the Brooklyn underground (doors at 8:30). See ya there!

Dynasty Electric!

We were very delighted to meet Jenny Electrik Dynasty Electric on Saturday at the 3rd Ward Handmade Holiday Craft Fair. She is a very funky lady, with the voice of a power-angel and a killer electro/pop/rock band with multi-instrumentalist Seth Misterka and drummer Shimon Hikri. Their upcoming album “Golden Arrows” was produced by Ski Beatz and their new single “Electric Love” has a guest appearance from Yeah Yeah Yeahs' drummer. Definitely stay tuned and catch them live soon! Planet Rump will be there with arms raised high on the dancefloor for sure.

UTOPIA recap video

Utopia was a huge success on a scale of creative liberation. Friends gathered to share artwork, performance, poetry, music, dance, video, live painting, and a strong sense of community and love. The newly renovated Cameo Art Gallery (behind the Lovin' Cup Cafe in Williamsburg, Brooklyn) provided the perfect venue for the omni-media art event.

Curated and hung by artist Atalay Harrison, the walls beamed with--mostly debut--expressions of Utopia. Brendan McCarthy's installation "La Foret Rose" created a magical indoor forest of pink trees for people to play in and explore.

DJ Coverboy opened up the night with funky beats. Christos Mountzouros' group nest+rest played painfully beautiful songs while Zach Fisher painted Christos' all-white attire and body. Zach followed up their set with a poignant yet uplifting poem.

Dangeroo Duo took us on a psychedelic rock odyssey, and was later joined by jazz singer Alex Nelson.

Bad Brilliance and Suspicious Package presented their collaborative bio-pop music video "Hummingbird," followed by a behind-the-scenes montage. Ashlynn Manning of Suspicious Package gave us a special treat with an acapella performance of their upcoming single "Bird of Prey."

Toby Dick rocked the stage and then created a painting live. Hayley Sunshine, Kayli Szczepankiewicz, and Kelsey Emmett performed an original dance called "Align," and then Hayley and Kayli did a quick costume change to become the Back-It-Up Dancers for Planet Rump's set.

After Planet Rump tore the roof of the mutha, Yer Boyfriend's Band Sux took the stage for a late-night performance art piece featuring a ghost playing the mandola and a roll of plastic wrap that ended up tying the entire audience in a convoluted web. Magick Report took us home with bumping beats and funky synths. DJ Lorant held it down between sets.

The theme of the night made for an overwhelming feeling of acceptance and love among the audience and artists. People were riding the high of the event for days to come, and another installment of Utopia is in the works for late winter. Stay tuned, rumpateers: this is just the beginning.

New video by Kelis is BEYOND!

Mindblowing! Kelis has created a full-fledged art piece with this song and video. It's got it all: beauty, wisdom, mystery, imagination, and a bumpin dance beat. It's so inspiring on so many levels, we can barely get a grip watching it. And by the end, when you realize she's singing about her newborn child, the tears start flowing. What better way to pay tribute to the miracle of life than with a life-changing work of art. And to think her first single was "I Hate You So Much Right Now"... she's come a long way, baby. Thank you Kelis, absolutely stunning!

Acapella is off her new album Flesh Tone. Cop it!

UTOPIA: A night of art and music

Come explore the limits of our collective imagination for one special night as New York artists and musicians share with us ideas inspired by their visions of Utopia. For centuries, humans have dreamed and worked for their own versions of Utopia, a theme that still holds many of our dreams and aspirations today. The concept of Utopia is a jumping off point for every individual's imagination, and holds no boundaries other than the limits of one's own creativity. Please join us for one night of Utopia, and feel the experience of our collective dreams.

Electro Dance Invasion ReCap!

We got some video made by our friends at WERW COLLEGE RADIO who featured us and fellow Brooklyn electro-rockers Great Tiger and Tayisha Busay as well as Syracuse electro-hip-pop act Mouth's Cradle and crazy funky dj's Chemicals of Creation during the Electro Dance Invasion in Syracuse! It's montage style- very 1984-87

Syracuse, we're coming atcha this weekend!

Attention Central New York: This is an ELECTRO DANCE INVASION warning! This Friday and Saturday night, three Brooklyn dance bands are taking over Syracuse—from downtown to the SU campus—bringing the funk and rocking your body two nights in a row.

W!LL Sheridan EP Release at Ella

A couple weeks ago, Planet Rump celebrated the upcoming release of W!LL's EP "Ngoma" (October 19 on iTunes). Royal Advisor Records put on yet another banger at Ella, featuring the brilliant talent of Nasty Ness, Samn!, Great Tiger and, of course, W!LL Sheridan. This was a killer dance party packed with funky people, with hit after hit of live amazement on the stage.

Check out the recap video below to experience the next wave of house/electro/hip hop/soul music, and get a taste of what Planet Rump's next NYC show will be like: THE LABYRINTH: Royal Advisor Records Halloween Bash on October 31 at Ella.

Live Newtown Radio performance tonight

Check out Newtown Radio tonight for an exclusive live performance on the air! We will be featured on tonight's episode of The Sophomore Slump, performing songs off our EP "Welcome to Planet Rump" and chatting with hosts Alyssa M. & DJ EPK. The show is live from 7-8pm EST. Listen online at newtownradio.com and call in at 347-725-4163 to join the party!

Newtown Radio is a new DIY internet radio station embracing innovative and prolific artists: hot new bands from around the world, hidden gems from the past, and undiscovered local talent in the Bushwick, Greenpoint and Williamsburg neighborhoods of Brooklyn, NY. "Newtown Radio is sure to entertain even the most astute BK music aficionado." (Working Class Magazine)

Jillian Lanier: funky fashion dance party!

Brooklyn-based handmade clothing designer (and our superfriend) Jillian Lanier exploded into the spotlight last Saturday at Williamsburg Fashion Weekend at Glasslands. Her Fall 2010 collection features wearable, fun, funky, bohemian ladies clothes. (She also makes killer fresh men's tees and sweaters.) Contact her for custom orders on Esty!

The show featured a group of unique, foxy women (including Miss Strawberry of Planet Rump!) all breaking it down on stage to Great Tiger's new mixtape [free download].

Check out the full Jillian Lanier show below!



The after party was the BOMB. Planet Rump was in full effect: DJ Tantric tore it up on the ones and twos, and Nasty Ness killed the mic! DJ Coverboy rocked the party hard all the way til closing. Photos and videos coming soon!

New Chromeo album "Business Casual" is SOLID GOLD

"Business Casual" turns it out! Even more solid gold 80s electro funk from Chromeo. Zapp & Roger are smiling down on these two. But don't take our word for it, try it on for size on NPR's First Listen (until Oct. 4), then buy it direct from Chromeo here!

New Nite Club videos: pure genius

We just love Nite Club, and especially Richie, the brains and soul behind the music. His recent album My Tronic is a masterpiece of break-beat electro-funk with sincere, angelic vocals. He just released these two awesome videos: check em out, then cop the album!

The first is for Time Fighter, created from computer models of star events and graphics of universal appeal. Wayyy cool, and of course, fits the beat and lyrics.


The second is for BK Nights, as uses YouTube videos of sick graffiti stop motion animations by Tant & Unga and a collaboration by Blu & David Ellis.

New track by Sunsplash

Just got this exclusive pre-release of Sunsplash's brand new track Hi-Life. It's fun baile-funk electro dance like Sunsplash does best. Download it and start bouncing around the room! Woo!

Catch Sunsplash live next Friday at Remezcla's party with Maluca and Zuzuka Poderosa! Details TBA.

Miguel: Breath of Fresh Air in the Mainstream

Thanks to our own Nasty Ness for turning us on to new Jive artist Miguel Jontel. His music is soulful, unique, and has much more depth than most of the cookie-cutter cuts you hear on the radio these days. Check out his video for "All I Want Is You" below. Also, be sure to download his mixtape "Mischief". Good ish, especially "Ooh Ahh!" Way to keep it real, Miguel!

Expression by Salt-N-Pepa

Had to bring it back to this classic. Just be your funky selves and get loose!

Collage of the Eclectic Collective

W!ll Sheridan's monthly party Eclectic Collective was jam packed Tuesday night for a showcase of some of the freshest NEXT-wave music acts on the scene. From studio-pop stud Peter Kirk, to brand new hip-hop/pop artist from Chi-town Gavin, to dance explosion sexy trio Radio Musik, the crowd responded with uproarious zeal. Then after a set from DJ Bonnie Danger, W!LL slam-dunked the funk with his most epic set yet, complete with army themed stage, banana-throwing antics, strobe light interlude, plenty of call and response and a capella rhyming. Even his collabo with Nasty Ness (of Planet Rump) "Set Fire To The Streets" was surging with more power than ever. Download the Great Tiger remix here. Speaking of Great Tiger, they rounded out the night with a funky electro odyssey, full of energy, charisma and laser pointers dancing across them from the audience. Re-live the experience by watching the collage below, and don't miss the next one!

Wallpaper. brought the funky fresh West Coast vibe to Brooklyn Bowl Sunday night

Wallpaper., an Oakland, California duo, put on a funky/freaky/smooth/krump/fun show for Nicky Digital's "The Deep End" party series, the Official Pool Parties After Parties, at Brooklyn Bowl Sunday night. If you don't know these guys by now, check out their video for "T-Rex"—this shit blew us out of our chairs a few months ago and we can't get enough. One mention of the song and it's in our heads for weeks. "I go BIG on the weeeekeeend, I go T-REX." Pure genius. Their set did not disappoint: they performed their entire album "Doo Doo Face" [cop it here] and it was a freaky dance get down. Ricky laid the smooth moves on us while Arjun kept the beat in his pocket. Check out this live footage to get a taste, and don't miss them next time they're in town! They're on tour now so catch em if you can! Tonight's stop: DC.

The Radiant Child: A brilliant film of a brilliant man

The new Jean-Michel Basquiat documentary is a must-see. It tells the story of his art career—from being a truly inspired teen to becoming a hugely famous artist in less than 10 years and then leaving this world at the age of 27. He left over one thousand paintings and one thousand drawings for us to explore, decode and feel for years to come. An incredible body of work that analyzed, synthesized, prophetized and expressed our human culture and history, frame after frame. He was a truly pure being, operating from his soul and letting his knowledge flow back out through him in automatically.

The film is playing now at Film Forum on Houston between 6th & 7th Aves. You should probably also pre-order the DVD now. It's a classic.

Fresh Chromeo video

LEMONADE will quench your thirst for dancing this Friday night at The Cove

Come out and dance with us to Lemonade as they celebrate Turrbotax 1 Year Anniversary at The Cove tomorrow night! Other sick acts performing are Todd Edwards & FaltyDL.

Need more reasons than awesome dance music to come out? OK fine... FREE Asahi beers from 11-12, $1 jello shots all night, FREE entry before 11pm, $5 before 12 ($7 after). Sound good? Thought so!

Check out Lemonade's video for "Big Weekend" and let's live it up!

Planet Rump rockin Santos at BOOTY CRISIS

In case you missed it, get a taste of how our set went down at the epic BOOTY CRISIS party at Santos Party House. We pulled out all the stops to deliver funky freshness to your eyes and ears. Back-It-Up Dancers Hayley Sunshine and Kayli Szczepankiewicz held it down with crazy hype choreography in the background. Brendan McCarthy brought the inside of a computer from the 1980s (read "Tron") to the stage with his incredible sparkle spandex set installation piece. And of course, yours truly, Planet Rump brought the bumpin beats, rhymes and hooks to your eardrums! Big thanks to Marilyn Lobos for capturing this on video!

"Welcome to the Jungle" by W!LL live at Ella

Planet Rump fam W!LL aka Will Sheridan doin the damn thing at Royal Advisor Record's Samn! The Remixes EP release party. The show went down in the basement of Ella Lounge on Monday July 26 and included performances by NYC's hottest underground artists: brand-spanking-new Radio Musik, Nasty Ness, and Samn!

Introducing... Planet Rump's Nasty Ness!

Nasty Ness (of Planet Rump) performed her hot new tracks last night at Royal Advisor Record's Samn! The Remixes EP release party. The show went down in the basement of Ella Lounge and included performances by NYC's hottest underground artists: brand-spanking-new Radio Musik, W!LL, and Samn!

Check out the video of her original banger "Crush" (produced by Chuck Wild of The Beatards). Stay tuned for more from this firecracker powerhouse soul house diva!

Die Antwoord killed it at HARD NYC

Planet Rump's Miss Strawberry and DJ Tantric checked out HARD NYC last night. Our take from the night? Die Antwoord stole the show! Their set was the best of the night by lightyears. While their message is neither positive nor unique (regardless of the chance that the project is a satirical critique of current hip hop), they are PROs at putting on a SHOW. They controlled the stage, managed the sound guy, connected with the audience and kept it hype the entire set. Oh and their beats are BUMPIN (seriously next level fokkin $hit). They even sound dope on a little digital camera's input. Love em or hate em, Die Antwoord has taken over the interweb and will take over the world of music.

New Act Just Added to BOOTY CRISIS: Sunsplash

BOOTY CRISIS is going down tomorrow night! We've just added a fresh new act from Brazil via Brooklyn: SUNSPLASH. Come check them out along with our jam packed line up of the freshest DJ and live acts ever to share the stage in one night! More details on the night, in case you been sleepin.

Party Tonight - Azari & iii in Bushwick

So for those of you who are not yet hip to Toronto House Duo Azari & III, TONIGHT will be your chance to experience their tunes in a sweaty loft environment. What was supposed to be their highly anticipated 1st USA appearance ever has turned into a DJ set rather than a Live Performance set (the singer got stuck at the border). Nonetheless, these dudes have wicked tunes and this should be a dope party.
