Duck Sauce Grammy nomination!
The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences has officially quacked: “Barbra Streisand” is up for Best Dance Recording! Check back Feb 12th for the ceremony (and my suit).
Russian Barbra… accordion included
As I mentioned in this post, there are tons of youtube spoofs of the “Barbra Streisand” video and if I started posting all of them it would never end… but this one gets a nod because it includes an accordion AND a Russian rap!
Dopest spoof of the Barbra video
I’ve seen a lot of spoofs of the “Barbra Streisand” video. Some of them have been clever. All of them flattering. But I gotta say, this one is miles ahead of the pack.
Here is the backstory. There’s a Austrian politician called Ursula Stenzel. She’s apparently trying to pass a law to impose a 4am curfew on nightclubs. In that part of Europe that’s pretty uncommon. Clubs in Berlin can stay open as late as they want, for example. So these guys in Vienna decided to remake our video featuring the who’s-who of their local music scene, reenacting every scene, every guest, every piece of decor… EVERYTHING. Shot for shot. It’s nuts.
Armand was recently in Vienna so they were able to record him for a drop at the beginning. “Ursula Stressned” means “Ursula, don’t stress”.
You can also watch the video by itself without the split screen after the jump.
Dolce Sauce… Duck & Gabbana
D&G feature “Barbra Streisand” in their Milan fashion show for Fall 2011.
Barbra gets lost on her way to Argentina
This is fantastic. A TV station in Argentina made a cheap cover of “Barbra Streisand” for their new commercial. It reminds me of back when all the shampoo commercials in the 90s had songs that copied US3 “Cantaloop”.
“Barbra Streisand” release info… video coming soon!
I know this is long awaited… long long long awaited. People have been asking us about this release ever since Armand and I played the song at WMC and it popped up on youtube. Then came the fan-made cover versions and all types of stuff floating around on blogs.
Well now, in the words of the great Biz Markie… “All samples cleared.”
So it is with great pleasure that we can finally announce the release of this fun lil’ ditty.
The main release date is Oct 11th (UK, pre-order here) and 12th (North America). Same for South Africa.
Australia is getting early dibs on Sept 24. Germany gets it a little later, Oct 29.
Most other countries will get filled in around the same time.
Now before you go anywhere, take a second and soak in that cover art, courtesy of my man Dust La Rock.
There is also a video dropping soon, sooner than you think.
Duck Sauce “aNYway” finally released in North America
People of North America! Some of you might not have noticed but technically Duck Sauce’s “aNYway” was never released in our fair continent, only in the rest of the world. Sometimes labels and contracts go through wormholes in the space-time continuum, it’s some advanced quantum physics. Anyway (aNYway), this week it was finally unleashed, courtesy of the good folks at Thrive Records / Island Def Jam.
Here’s where you can buy it:
iTunes USA / iTunes Canada / Amazon / Beatport
Furthermore, next week Fool’s Gold is releasing the long-awaited “Greatest Hits” vinyl-only EP, available at your local record shops and wherever quality wax is sold. It features “aNYway”, “You’re Nasty”, “The Motion” and “Grand Steppin”.
All this is leading up to the SUMMER release of the highly anticipated / bootlegged / youtubed / blogged follow-up, “Barbra Streisand”. Stay tuned for that release date… Oh and don’t worry, we’ve got some more new joints in the can for the fall.
