I actually don't know if I like this one. I guess it's becuase its not as catchy as the older songs. But, I thought I'd share it with all of you. Hope you Enjoy.
There's even an inclusion of Bruce Willis, for some reason, most likely for him to act as a bad ass. Let me know your thoughts on it and the remixes, I've given links to at the bottom too.

Pursuit of Happiness
Well, Kid Cudi's back. With a choon of a song called as you may of guessed "Pursuit Of Happiness". Being released yesterday I thought I'd bring it to your attention as, well, Cudder deserves the attention.
The song shows you whats inside of Scott Mescudi, a deeply tormented soul, one comparable to a martian due to his introverted nature. Its shows his sensitive side and how he deals with inner torment "Tell me what you know about night terrors/ Nothin!". Portraying a man who feels he's alone on his journey in life, being the lonely stoner that he is. Sure this my not be as much of a head turner as Day N' Night, but, you can imagine it being on the radio as Cudi transforms himself into hiphop-rap-indie hybrid, one style of music which, I definitely approve of.
There's also an amazing remix which was released some time ago by Steve Aoki, which is one of the best remixes I've heard in a long . It gives you a whole new perspective on the song and gives it more than the meanings you first interpret the song to give. It makes it seem as if CuDi's still aiming and "get, get get(ting)" what he really wants from his music career, check it out here.
As usual, here's the MP3s you want:

Frank's New MUSIK
He's back! After. Well, not too long really, but its great to see that Vince has gone back straight into making music after what he'd probably think was a under performing debut album, one which to me was throughly underrated.
So now onto his new single, being called "Losing Streak", quite fitting really, Frankmusik, or Vince as he's known to his friends has had a year of ups and downs with none of his singles reaching the top 20, yet his album was the largest selling new male album in the UK for the most of 2009. Which is a huge achievement. He deserves every plaudit he recieves.
Currently recording his new album "Follow The Leader" in LA with producers which include Computer Club, its quite clear Vince is moving away from the pop scene and is becoming a little more club. Its apparent in Losing Streak with his incredibly catchy lyric " "If you let her she will swallow, not your dick but your brains cause everyone is the same". This is why I love Frankmusik. He's both witty and charming?
I know this is a new year and my first post is of my favourite artist of 2009, but, well, I don't see myself ever moving away from Frankmusik, and theres a goddamn good reason too! Listen to him... Then you'll realise.
As ever here's a few mp3's to give you a taste of the true Vincent Frank aka FrankMusik.

Late of the pier. And odd fruit.
Blueberries to be precise. Now, I've heard this a few times and just, haven't gotten the whole Late of the pier vibe to it yet, its far more, David Bowie-esque. Check it out yourself. Here's a live version.
Check out Best in the Class too, I think thats more like them, albeit, still not up to their usual get up and get fucking moving style but its close enough.

There's more than Flair about this.
Okay, wait, did I just see what I think I'd seen. Why yes I have, and its awesome! Don't believe me, check it out for yourself. Here's a song by flairs, that, well, I doubt you've ever seen anything like before. Truckers Delight is absolutely the most genius, and at the same time, most ridiculous thing I've seen in years.
Here's a link for the Song
Flairs - Truckers Delight
Truckers Delight animated video clip directed by newcomer wunderkid Jérémie Périn who takes the song's title (a tribute to those little pleasures that the lonely truck- driver indulges himself in) and takes it to the next level. Think Spielberg's Duel + Russ Meyer's Faster Pussycat Kill Kill! and Marc Dorcel's wildest fantasies. All warped into an 8-bit Sega era style graphic. And this clumsy and somehow pretentious description doesn't even come close to what you're about to see: it's très funny,très dirty, -très sexy. Très Flairs indeed.

He's Gonna be a Staar.
His name's Tom Staar and here's a quick bio from his Myspace.
Deep within the solar system, past the rocky contours of the moon & beyond the fizzing gases of Jupiter, a lone space traveller named Tom Staar searches for his long lost colony of intergalactic compadres.
Not knowing if he is the last of his kind means his search is never ending & his methods of communication unauthordox. It's a long time since he's seen another member of his species, but one thing he still remembers is how much they liked to dance! So in a bid to make contact, Tom likes to send interstellar messages... in the form of songs!
As well as helping develop the mighty Moda club night during his time on earth, and the music of acts such as Jaymo & Andy George and Doorly, Tom has now begun sharing his own cosmic productions.
Combining a quasar of sounds, with retro synths, a sprinkling of stardust & even his own vocals, means that Tom Staar makes music that is truly his own.
"What" I hear you say? Don't ask, all I can say is he's awesome. He's not been around for long, but he's already on Moda Records, expect big stuff from him in the near future. Don't say you won't after you've listened to him either.
