Feeling a little urge to be Daft Punk and/or Kanye West??
Wanna satisfy that urge for, like, 10mins??…
Check out the iDaft.
(and it is a bit daft too… fun, but daft!)
Spotted this on Kanye’s blog.
It’s a little sample player where you can use your computer’s keyboard to make a ‘hit’
(well, that might be exaggerating a bit!)

VIDEO: Ciara & Justin Timberlake – Love Sex Magic

Oh man…
I’ve been championing this track for months and months. I was rinsing the ‘Justin-Only’ version long before any of my fellow urban radio DJs around the UK, (when I heard a few of them shrug the track off, saying it was weak)… and then, when it became Ciara’s track for her new album, it got even better.
This will be, without a doubt, Ciara’s biggest hit of her career. Mark my words.
Plus, along with T.I.’s track ‘Dead & Gone’, this firmly puts Justin right back at the front of our minds again, perfect for his upcoming new album.
I already believe that this will be one of the biggest tracks of 2009, and we’re only in March.
This track is pure fire… and the video is just as hot.

So yeh, my blog has been completely Michael Jackson based for this whole week!
And rightly so.
To recap -
1) Michael annoucnes a sensational return to the live stage, with 10 shows in London’s O2 Arena in July .
2) I’m one of the privileged few to receive a text on the night of Tues 10th with my presale password
3) While waiting for the presale to begin at 7am on Wed 11th, I refresh the ticketmaster page only to find 20 more shows added. 2 minutes later, after I refresh again, these shows have vanished. Someone was clearly testing the page with more shows – I predict these shows will be confirmed
4) At 7am I use my password and successfully get 4 tickets – awesome seats too – I’m psyched!
5) My suspicions are correct – Another 20 shows are added, taking the run right through to September.
6) Even more shows are added. After the first run finishes at the end of Sept, a new run begins in Jan 2010!
7) Finally, just before the tickets actually go on general public sale, one final string of dates are added.
This brings it to a total of 50 shows! FIFTY!!!
This means that 1million people will see him. The most amount of people to ever attend a series of arena shows, the biggest audience ever to see an artist in one city…
And the fastest ticket sales in history.
Wow.
So my date is Sunday 12th July – his third show.
I’m feeling good about it. Any little first show kinks should be ironed out, but he’ll still be super fresh.
Myself and my fellow Cool DJs Paul Kennedy, Connor Philips and Stephen Clements make up the travelling foursome! It’s gonna be a wicked weekend.
So with all the MJ hype, I thought I should post what I consider to be the best performance of this week’s American Idol.
It was (you guessed it) Michael Jackson week on the show.
And although there were some real good performances (and some rubbish ones), musical director from Milwaukee Danny Gokey performed one of my favourite MJ tracks – P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)…
…and he absolutely killed it! Awesome – check it out below
Jackson to release new Single and Album

Wow… and Wow again!
The news just keep getting better and better.
According to Michael Jackson’s concert promoter Randy Phillips, we are finally going to be getting the long-awaited new album. Check this out:
Michael Jackson will reportedly release a new single and album ahead of his comeback shows in July.
The singer has written ‘hundreds’ of songs since his last LP in 2001 and plans to premiere new music before his residency at London’s O2 arena.
“There will be a new Michael Jackson single before the first date,” concert promoter Randy Phillips confirmed.
“Michael has got some new music and he is looking for a new way of disseminating his material to his fans.”
Promoters AEG suggested that the star may give away a brand new album to fans at his shows, a measure used by Prince in 2007.
The ‘This Is It’ concerts, which kick off on July 8, are expected to feature state of the art visual effects throughout the planned 90-minute shows.
“He wants to use some technical effects that have never been seen before.”

Not to try to sound wise after the event, but to be honest I could see this coming.
I predicted this last week.
Jackson has been touting a new album for years, and when I seen him announce these concert dates, I knew that if we were ever gonna get the elusive new album, this would be the time.
What better way to launch a new album when worldwide excitement about you is at the highest level it’s been at in over a decade?
Oh man, I can’t wait.
This looks like it’s gonna be the comeback of all comebacks – the one we’ve all been waiting for.
