::HEADPHONE JUNKIES:: Star Slinger | Dumbin'

On September 28th, Darren Williams - better known to the world as hip-hop and dance producer Star Slinger - will release “Dumbin’ (Featuring Reggie B)” exclusively through Green Label Sound. The Manchester-via-Nottingham, 20-something caught Green Label Sound’s attention through his previous remixes for everyone from Broken Social Scene to Gold Panda as well as his critically adored albums Volume 1 and Teams vs. Star Slinger (Mexican Summer).

"Williams' (Star Slinger) style combines the hyper soul sampling of Kanye West or Dipset producers Heatmakerz with a bubbling psychedelia reminiscent of J Dilla's spacier moments." ---Pitchfork

Williams expressed his interest in working with Green Label Sound due to their previous partnerships with Theophilus London and The Cool Kids, “I really loved the other artists Green Label Sound had worked with in the past…plus, they were giving my music away for free allowing it to reach a wider audience.”

“Dumbin’,” serves as the first proper single from Star Slinger. Featuring vocals by Missouri-based Reggie B, the track's pop sheen is counterbalanced by a slightly off-kilter drum pattern and skittering rhythm.

“Dumbin’ (Featuring Reggie B)” will be available for FREE download beginning

September 28th, 2011 exclusively at greenlabelsound.com

This past weekend members of Gypsy Soul got tan as we and our media circle braved 100 degree heat to hit the beach in search of The Cool Kids at The Dew Action Sports Tour stop in Ocean City, MD.

Thanks to Green Label Sound, Mountain Dew's innovative record label that supports emerging artists of a vast amount of musical takes, we were allowed to coordinate a few interviews for The Cool Kids.

The Cool Kids were the first to release music on Green Label Sound and are now the first to release a full length album, When Fish Ride Bicycles, on the label. When Fish Ride Bicycles right now is only available via iTunes and has reached number one status on the iTune hip hop downloads. Besides the fact these dudes are from the great state of Illionis (my home state) if Ghost Face rides with them you know their official.

After The Cool Kids graciously sat down with our media outlets and signing posters for everyone, we got a chance to see the FREE beach concert held by The Dew Tour that also featured Kid Cudi.

Special thank you to Sam, Ashley, Lindsey, Jeff & Grant & The FARM Team. Take a look at pics below taken by Gypsy Soul photog Nocturnal Charm and get even more pics HERE.
