DJ BENZI & DIPLO PRESENT: MANSIONS ON THE MOON – PARADISE FALLS

DJ Benzi and DJ/Producer Diplo link up for this remix project featuring a pretty heavy cast. I ain’t gonna lie man I’m 50 Tyson I don’t know too much about Mansions on the Moon myself, but I sure am intrigued by the line-up and what I’ve heard before. Here’s a blurb off their website, which you can visit yourself here.

“Mansions on the Moon is the latest project from Lane Shaw and Ben Hazlegrove (of Pnuma Trio) along with singer/songwriter, Ted Wendler. The group formed a little over a year ago, developing their signature sound at studios in Atlanta and Virginia Beach and have since collaborated with N*E*R*D, Diplo, DJ Benzi and Chiddy Bang’s Xaphoon Jones.

Paradise Falls , presented by Diplo and DJ Benzi illustrates the wide range of Mansions on the Moon’s musical capabilities. The band is currently in Los Angeles recording their debut album with tour dates to be announced in the early part of 2011″

What they said. Here’s a track off the mixtape “Broken Paradise” by Washed Out.

CHRISTIAN RICH – THE DECADENCE

This is good sh*t right here, and a lot of people have been asking me about my super-talented producer/DJ homies from the Chi lately, so this is RIGHT on time! The brothers of Christian Rich have completed their newest project entitled ‘The Decadence‘, chocked full of all the musical gloriousness your heart desires. The project is their 1st MAJOR introduction to the music world, but with management from Shae of N.E.R.D. and cosigns from Pharrell, Lupe Fiasco, Kardinal Offishall, and others, it’s sure to be a swift induction into your playlist. Oh and the ARTWORK? That’s done by none other than the homie Brandon Breaux of Ends Wealth Corp. Chicago! Check out one of my favorite joints from the project, “Hello Virgin” and then download the tape. I’ve also included the track listing, their video drop from Pharrell, and the video for Hello Virgin after the jump. Indulge!
