Once in a rare while a musical collaboration happens that comes so unexpected that it is destined to impact the pop scene in a mighty big way. Take for example Nick Cave's brilliant duet with Kylie Minogue or Eminem's timeless tune with Dido that both took the pop scene by storm. On the glossier side of the pop spectrum, Far East Movement is ready to create some tremors of their own by partnering with none other than global pop sensation Justin Bieber on their forthcoming new single "Live My Life."
Produced by hitmaker RedOne, it's a pop collaboration of seismic proportions that I'm sure will fly up the charts around the world and hoover steady at the top for a good, long while this summer. A full single edit of "Live My Life is not available yet, but LMFAO's RedFoo previewed the song during his "Party Rock Monday" DJ residency at Marquee in Las Vegas earlier this week.
The sound of the video is distorted but you can easily make out Bieber's hook and the party-starting dirty bass sound that pretty much tells you that "Live My Life" is a massive pop anthem waiting to happen. The track is taken from Far East Movement's upcoming new LP, entitled "Dirty Bass," that also includes the group's current hit single "Jello" featuring Interscope labelmate Rye Rye.
According to a report in Billboard Magazine, "Dirty Bass" also includes production work by The Stereotypes, David Guetta, Bangladesh and Martin "Cherry Cherry Boom Boom" Kierszenbaum. It's an exciting new project that neatly positions Far East Movement as a next generation pop band with its universal, all-inclusive attitude that breaks down barriers and brings a fresh new energy to the scene.
