It's an unlikely love affair, but quite a few hip-hop heads have really been feeling Swedish indie-rock trio Peter, Bjorn and John lately. From Kanye West, who sampled the group's breakthrough hit "Young Folks" for his Can't Tell Me Nothing mixtape, to Drake, who worked with them on So Far Gone's "Let's Call It Off."
That sonic bromance is going major August 27, thanks to producer Mick Boogie, the man behind last year's lauded Jay-z/Coldplay mash-up mixtape, Viva la Hova. Boogie was recently handed the master to Pb&J's most recent album, Living Thing, and he's done it again, overseeing a full-album remix dubbed Re-Living Thing that the acclaimed mixtape kid said is one of his finest efforts to date.

As we reported (http://www.snitchseeker.com/harry-potter-news/alfie-enoch-give-acting-talk-brazil-63398/) earlier this week, actor Alfie Enoch (Dean Thomas) led a talk on acting in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with his father, actor William Russell. ---Quote--- His father told us about some of his roles he had already taken. Alfred said he has always admired his father's profession, and tried to follow his steps: he became an actor, attended Oxford (for Portuguese and Spanish), etc. He also told us his favourite book is Chamber of Secrets, but his favourite movie is Order of the Phoenix. He didn't reveal anything about being in the seventh movie or not, he only mentioned that his mates were shooting it. ---End Quote--- Photos of Alfie at the event can be seen here (http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=675): Image: http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/albums/userpics/84186/normal_alfie-enoch-scar-potter-debate-08.jpg Image: http://www.snitchseeker.
