It’s a gloriously rainy day here in DC, so I was especially pleased that the first email I opened today, was this delight from the Melbourne-based duo Diafrix. The song is bouncy, the plot is heartwarming, and that backyard party looks like one hell of a good time. It’s hard to go wrong with any song that includes the line I got no money, no dental plan, and I don’t even care, I got my weed and I got my lady.
So you may (or may not) have noticed that D.I.D. has been dormant for a week (the longest amount of downtime in its short, albeit illustrious history). We have upgraded from my personal website to a home of our own, and after a very stressful week (relocating hundreds of mp3s takes sooo much time), we are back. Not to bore you with my troubles, I’m ready to dive back in to it, we have so much to catch up on.
So before falling in love with Chauffeur I didn’t really know too much about Mark Ronson. In a typical fashion, he is now showing up everywhere in my life. Producing tracks for Wale‘s new album (more on that in a minute), working with Amy Winehouse and being responsible for tracks I didn’t even know I knew (“Stop Me”, which features a delightful homage to The Supremes [Diana Ross is also showing up everywhere for me]). Classic soul and flawless production, I’m embarassed that it’s taken me this long, but now there’s no turning back.
The past two years I’ve made mixes to celebrate the joys of friend love (and beautiful music of course), and I’m at it again. This was meant to come to you on Valentine’s Day and “real life” pushed it back, but I think the theme is timeless. This is just a little token to thank you for being with us on this journey, and always remember, Danger Loves You. Tracklist: [...]
Dipped in Dollars (D.I.D.) is the brainchild of Chief and Danger. While attending a crazy liberal arts college in Vermont, we realized our mutual love of righteous dance music, art, and the people behind them. Along the way we were joined by Crimson and B.Darko. D.I.D. exists to share this love with you and hopefully turn you on to something new.
This site exists to promote artists, if you hear something you like, think about throwing the artist(s) a few dollars, buy an album, go to a concert, show them you care. If any artists or official people want us to take any of our links down, just shoot us an email and we'll take care of it.
If you wish to contact the team, send mail to did@dippedindollars.com or for individual addresses, check here. (But please not both, duplicates are a drag)
