http://www.bigdada.com main news feed from big dada en webmaster@ninjatune.net Infinite and Stade have appeared on French television doing what only they can do. Enjoy here. Big Dada will be at The Legion, Old Street, London tonight, as our new superproducer XRABIT will be taking to the ones, two, and er, laptop alongside Jamie Big Dada from 9-2am. Expect a varied music policy and some sneak previews of one of the best records we've got lined up for next year. You got some? Well bully for you. Now is your chance to show it off thanks to the good offices of Transport for London and Bebo (I know, I know...).Apparently TfL is looking for new talent. But not for their ticket offices. Oh no. 'Talent Lives' lets you upload your own films, photographs, music, writing - anything (I think poo pics are banned but I could be wrong). Anyway, if you win one of the categories you get to be mentored by someone who is A Success (they've got quite a list of good peoples, so while I sound like I'm taking the piss, it is actually worth a look).Apparently it's part of TfL's 'Don't Die Before You've Lived' road safety campaign. Don't ask me how. Anyway, it's quite spiffy - go forth and be talented and alive. You know it makes sense.... Last week Roots Manuva was over in Ibiza appearing at the 'Ibiza Rocks' festival. To see video footage from the event, check out the performance here and an interview with the man himself here. Roots Manuva recently recorded several tracks from the new album for Channel 4's 'Transmission' series. The first chance to see some solo brilliance from Rodney, as well as a collaboration with girl of the moment Santogold, can be seen after last orders tonight. Tune in at midnight to see it in all its glory. If you like your fun at the other end of the day, it's shown post granola-fuelled jog on Saturday at 9.00. Yes, you can win, and not some throwaway worthless rubbish either, but tickets to the gig of the summer in shape of Infinite Livez vs Stade at Corsica Studios! With one very, very special guest (someone who's also on Big Dada, feeling rather hectic currently and a giant fan of Infinite) and support from Big Dada's 1st lady, Speech Debelle, it's so worth it it's hard to overstate.The gig takes place on Wednesday 30th July, and the first two people to email info@bigdada.com reminding us the name of Inf's furry best friend will win a pair of tickets each. The second single from the wondrous, spiffingly new Roots Manuva album 'Slime and Reason' is unveiled today. It's called 'Again and Again,' it brings sunshine where there's showers, you can hear the radio edit on rotation on the site right now, and the video for it is hereAs if that wasn't enough for one day, here's some words from those silvertongues in the press.'Britain's pre-emminent hip-hop star, a brit-rap Tom Waits.' – The Guardian'Instantly relevant…' – Big Issue'Stompin' summer anthem in waiting… at his sexiest best…' – Metro'The UKs reigning MC…' – Plan B'It's reassuring to remember that Roots is still out there, rejecting the club dwelling po-facery of his peers.' – Time Out To pledge your support for the brand new Roots Manuva single - "Buff Nuff" and its video go here and vote for it in the NME TV chart!
