Snoop Dogg Goes Euro (Again) Via Brighi's "Play Me Like A Violin" (New Clip)
You know which American rapper is always down to guest on a Euro dance track? Snoop Dogg! The d o double gizzle is back in the mix today via a new video alongside Hungarian singer Bridgitta (she was a singer in a Hungarian TV Show called RTL Klub's 'Csillag Születik'). Anyway, "Play Me Like A Violin" is brought to you by Spanish label Blanco y Negro + Hi-Klass music, the same Italian company who were behind The Glam (which featured U.S. rapper Flo Rida). And as we all know, Snoop Dogg has guest rapped on tracks from Russian, German and even Bulgarian artists. If you have money and/or weed, Snoop will appear on your europop, eurodance or eurorap track, people. Spread the word!
Spain: Natalia + Monica Moss Debut Clips
Today is a good day for fans of Spanish dance divas. We have not one, but two new clips from names of note from España. First up (and the larger artist of the two) is Natalia. Her brand new clip for "Indomita" is pretty good, showing a vibrancy not seen before from the talent. In the promo, Natalia plays the role of pop star, which she pulls off with aplomb (no surprise here, given her past....see her fantastic "Libérate" from 2011 for proof). The rapper on the track is a guy named D-Mol. Good song, fun clip. Next up is a lesser-known singer named Monica Moss, who won a competition held by Spanish radio station 40 Principales a few years ago, which lead to larger opportunities (she performed with American artist Anastacia before an audience of more than 15,000 people in Madrid, for example). Her "No Fui Yo" (produced by The Kickstarts) video is new today. Check both clips below.
Sound Of Summer In Winter: "Princesa"
What's the sound of summer in the dead of winter? You have to go to sunny Spain to find it. Barcelona's Hinojosa has just released a song and video for a track called "Princesa" that I think may well be some kind of mini club anthem in mainstream clubs (not in Ibiza, more like regular nightspots in Barcelona) all over Spain this spring. The tune also features a guy going under the name "Mr Chris" and together these two think so much of their song they have created an entire website dedicated to "Princesa." Hinojosa has remixed Bob Sinclar, Nicola Fasano, Pitbull and Kylie Minogue but he might be best known for a track he did simply called "Porno." Anyway, his "Princesa" is pretty hot, borrowing a bit from the 'Romanian sound' and fusing it with an unmistakably Spanish energy. Check it.
Caliente Spanish House: "Feel It Inside"
Guess who's back in the mix for 2012 already? Ibiza's "Big Bad Bitch," Rebeka Brown. The house singer extraordinaire has teamed up with (formerly, and maybe still there) Barcelona-based DJ/Producer Carlos Gallardo (known for playing well-received sets in Ibiza and Majorca for years as well as producing a once popular local festival called 'Inca Divine Festival’) for a track called "Feel It Inside." Today, the pair dropped a video for the song and it's an energetic affair. The promo was directed by Franck Bufi. Check it below. (h/t Jose)
Future Sicilian/Spanish Eurohit: "Tacatà"
Ok this is officially awesome. Sicilian DJs Romano & Sapienza have teamed up with a very Pitbull-esque sounding rapper/singer (Rodriguez) for a tune called "Tacatà" and the clip has been quietly heating up Italy and Spain the past few days since it dropped on Tuesday. Mario Romano and Salvo Sapienza are currently working in clubs all over Italy and this track could take them to the next level in a few different countries. Very catchy tune...check it out below.
