Remember when the Beastie’s were the hottest thing on the planet? When only Foreigner could tussle with them for that honour? Yeah? Well, they’re back. And they’re still relevant, as this new ear-shatteringly good single reveals.

The seminal Brooklyn trio are back with a new album, Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, in stores May 3. To give fans a taster, they have put together this clip, featuring their young and future selves in an old skool DJ battle. Oh, did I mention it features Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Elijah Wood and Jack Black? Word.

Girls. All I really want is Girls. So, the Beastie Boys rapped it, and Cape Town’s been feeling it. Or her, rather. Meet Safiyya Bryce, aka Funafuji, a little lass with an English accent who is doing big things. Things that make us sweat and smile. Droppin’ it like the boys and throwing in some extra-cheeky femme fatale flare, she’s a ‘fourth year medical student who also plays bass-heavy, phat, wobbley dubstep muuuusak’. Read more

B Boys fans take note. Brooklyn’s finest, The Beastie Boys, are re-issuing their seminal album, Check Your Head, along with the original sixteen bonus cuts, rarities and assorted nonsense. Word. There will be five different steelos available, from a digital-only package, to a limited four LP vinyl, fabric-wrapped hardcover book case edition. It’s available for a limited time at a special discount. You’ll also find band commentaries, videos, original album art, and a Wave Skater game. Kinda hot hot heat mixed with burning molten lava.

Matt Stuart’s photography makes big city life look so much more ironic and interesting than it is. It would take the average Joe a lifetime to capture the moments that reel off his website. He’d be the ideal wedding photographer for a marriage to oneself.

Major Stars are another throwback ’70s rock band, playing Sabbath-flavored, guitar-driven psych tunes. But what sets them apart from the horde of Zeppelin-worshipping clones is vocalist Sandra Clarkson, whose voice is clean and feminine, but loud and aggressive — she doesn’t try to affect a Janis Joplin rasp. The band’s music also skews heavily towards the Acid Mothers Temple end of the ’70s revival thing rather than the Wolfmother side, another plus. Nope, rock still isn’t dead.
ALAS is a sleepwear label from two clever lasses Betony and Kelly. Mindful of our precious environment their philosohy is rather zen and based on sustainability. Their gorgeous pajamas are 100 percent organic cotton and are fair trade accredited, too. Read more
