"Awesome" television debut



The Beastie Boys concert film Awesome; I Fuckin' Shot That! will have its television debut on VH1 Rock Docs on Saturday, January 13, at 9 p.m. ET. The film will repeat twice on Wednesday, January 17, at 1:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. ET.

For television, the title has been cleaned up to Awesome; I Shot That! and the language that earned the film a R rating in theaters -- Thank you, Mr. Pottymouth Horovitz -- has been cleaned up as well. The question is did they bleep or dub him?

Luscious Jackson to release greatest hits

Billboard reports [DEAD LINK] that Luscious Jackson will be releasing a "Greatest Hits" collection on February 20 that will include a previously unreleased remix of "Why Do I Lie?" by Mike Diamond. The Beastie Boy has amusingly titled his remix "Why Do I Lie? (Pants on Fire Remix)."

Luscious Jackson is, of course, a former Grand Royal artist, whose drummer, Kate Schellenbach, was an original member of the Beastie Boys.

Adrock remixes Matisyahu

Adam Horovitz' remix of "Youth" by Matisyahu may be found on the Hasidic reggae artist's new CD/DVD, titled No Place to Be, which was released last week in North America.

An audio sample of "Youth (Small Stars Remix By Adrock)" may be heard at Matisyahu's official web site. The remix is available to purchase and download at the US iTunes music store.

Horovitz isn't the first Beastie Boy to remix a song for Matisyahu. Last year, Mike Diamond remixed "King Without a Crown." Diamond's remix appears on the import single of the song.
