The winner receives $40,000 for a month's work, accommodation in five star hotels around the globe, and gets to/has to travel with Psy on his world tour. Psy needs a chef, and because posting a job ad in the local paper, then vetting applications and conducting interviews is a big ol' pain, he has done the sensible thing and launched an online competition, complete with garish green design. It seems like a great gig: the winner receives $40,000 for a month's work, accommodation in five star hotels around the globe, and gets to/has to travel with Psy on his world tour. "How do I enter?", we hear you furiously type in our comments section (nice avatar). Well, head over to the official Bibigo Facebook page and upload a video showing your "Bibigo skills". The entrants are judged and possibly laughed at, then three finalists are chosen by Psy and "a specialist", with the finalist videos hosted on the Facebook site to be further judged and laughed at from May 20. The three finalists will participate in "an extensive interview and mission", which all sounds exciting (a mission!). It will then be put to a vote, with Psy getting 40% of the say, with the remaining 60% being via an online poll. Easy, right? Well, this does throw up some minor questions, such as, "What in Christ's name are 'Bibigo skills?'" Well, we'll let the company explain it to you, in glorious CAPS LOCK. "THE BIBIGO BRAND NAME STEMS FROM THE KOREAN TERM "BIBIDA" AND THE ENGLISH PHRASE "TO-GO." BIBIDA MEANS "TO MIX" IN KOREAN. SO WHAT DO WE MEAN BY MIXING? TO START, IT'S ABOUT MAKING A GREAT MEAL BY MIXING TOGETHER FRESH INGREDIENTS. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL-BIBIGO IS UP TO YOUR INTERPRETATION. YOU CAN MIX FOOD, COLORS OR EVEN MUSIC. WE WANT TO SEE WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO MIX, AND HOW YOU CHOOSE TO DO IT. SHOW US YOUR UNIQUE STYLE, AND HAVE SOME FUN WITH IT! IF YOU HAVE THE RIGHT MIXING SKILLS, YOU MIGHT JUST BECOME PSY'S PERSONAL CHEF." Entries close May 12, and you better believe we'll be featuring some of these audition videos on our site in the weeks to come.

Story by Jack Tregoning Sometimes, it really helps to be in contact with an ex-cotton farmer from Wee Waa who now makes electronic music. Jim Phelps, one half of the production duo Romance of the Sane alongside his offsider Samuel, has been keeping inthemix in the know about the imminent Random Access Memories launch in regional New South Wales, roughly 10,000 miles from Paris, France. “At least half the locals I talk to think Daft Punk is coming to town to ‘do a concert’ and they think they are a punk group,” Jim tells us. (In case you’re still confused, it’s just the album, not Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel De Homem-Christo, making the trip.) By now, it’s been established that Wee Waa was not just chosen out of the blue for the first official airing of the new album. The duo was drawn to the town by the CSIRO Australia Telescope and its six enormous satellite dishes, which will look perfect in a Daft Punk video. “What the band wanted to do is capture the character of Wee Waa, the people and the surrounds,” Narrabri Mayor Conrad Bolton announced on ABC Radio. “The satellite dishes are all going to be part of the final video that’s released. They’re going to feed that into their video release and beam that out. “No one really knows their identity,” he added mysteriously, if a little inaccurately. “Their public life is hidden by these helmets. So, the town is going to have a great time with this.” Here are five pointers if you’re taking a road-trip to Wee Waa to hear Random Access Memories first and join in the “great time”… #1 COME FOR DAFT PUNK, STAY FOR CHAINSAW TRICKS When Sony reps visited Wee Waa, they chose the bowling club to brief the local community on the launch. At their request, Wee Waa Show Society will not do anything different from past years. Gates open at 3:30pm on Friday 17 May, pet show at 4pm, motorbike stunts at 5:30pm, BBQ at 6pm, then official opening at 7pm, Wee Waa showgirl crowned at 7:30pm, fireworks at 8pm, and then Daft Punk launch at 8:30pm followed by chainsaw tricks and a local country & western band at 10pm. #2 THE HELMETS ARE COMING The biggest secret, according our man in Wee Waa, is that Sony will distribute hundreds of Daft Punk helmets around town in the coming weeks with the aim to get locals taking snaps that will be used as part of the streamed launch – that means farmers, truckies and so on at work with Daft Punk headgear on. As Jim reports: “No sign of helmets from Sony yet, but I’m guessing that will happen closer to the date.” #3 THE UNOFFICIAL, WEEKEND-LONG AFTER-PARTY An enterprising crew of promoters have decided to stage the Weekend Vines festival at Seplin Estate Winery, situated 1.5 kilometres outside the Wee Waa town centre, to keep the party rolling all weekend long. The camping festival, running from Friday 17 to Sunday 19 May, is set to be stretched across 30 acres of property. Local council moved slowly in giving approval, but the Weekend Vines team has announced they are now “in the clear” – with a potential liquor license hurdle to be determined a couple of days out from the event. Tickets are $120 and on sale now. #4 YOU COULD ‘GET LUCKY’ As Jim tells us: “The Crossing Theatre in Narrabri will release limited extra tickets to the Daft Punk launch at random times with short notice. Fans would have to constantly monitor the Crossing Theatre website though and hope to get lucky.” #5 PREPARE FOR TASTY, TASTY PUNS A recent report in the Narrabri Courier includes one of the best lines in any newspaper story, ever: “Dewson’s Quality Meats owner and butcher, James Dewson, is planning new recipes for the event, such as ‘random access rissoles’, named after the album to be released, Random Access Memories and ‘daft pork sausages’.”

Story by Katie Cunningham If there’s one man you can count on to consistently deliver memorable one-liners, it’s Diplo. Sure enough, when the ever-acerbic Mad Decent boss sat down with The Huffington Post last week, his opinion on all things label-related didn’t come sugarcoated. A few days before he opened up about how Baauer’s chart-topping, viral hit Harlem Shake “saved” Mad Decent from going under (“a year ago we were going to fold because we couldn’t figure out how to make money,” he told the same outlet at Coachella over the weekend), Wesley Pentz talked through the label’s game plan. “We are a label that exists on the internet, so when something like that happens, we know how to incubate it and make it go crazy,” Diplo told Huff Post about that YouTube-dominating meme. “There are no rules to running a label anymore. We have, like, seven people working for us, but Interscope probably didn’t even have a record as big as Harlem Shake last year and they have thousands working for them.” “Interscope dropped Major Lazer when we asked for money for a video for Get Free, and we sold 150,000 copies of that song,” he continued. “So that just proves that labels have no idea what’s going on anymore. They just want to jump on EDM dick – shit that sucks because they don’t feel the music but think it’s happening. We are in these streets.” As he puts it: “When it comes to dance music on the fringe, there’s no A&R that can teach you or guide you.” But dance music’s renaissance man wasn’t done dropping quotable gems yet. “Dance music is so interchangeable,” Pentz added. “There’s not a lot of face to it. It’s a bunch of Dutch DJs with the same haircut. You go see a dance stage at a fucking dance festival and I’m bored out of my fucking mind. That’s not going to last very much longer, because kids see that it’s the same shit every single time."

Boards of Canada Commercial Reveals 10 Seconds of Music, Not Much Else Digital code "699742" had previously leaked on NPR Internet cockteases Boards of Canada added more gas to the album speculation fire with a what-else-but cryptic commerical that aired on Cartoon Network last night (April 27). As Pitchfork points out, CN's vice president of strategic marketing and promotions Jason DeMarco confirmed on Twitter that the spot was in fact the real deal. That the ad exists at all is the real news here; the commercial doesn't offer much in revelations. Super-8 footage of dusty desert roads and decaying buildings roll by — a south western atmosphere befitting the rumored Spanish-language BoC album title, Cosecha. Around the 0:48 mark, Boards of Canada-like musical tones play before a mechanical voice speaks "699742," and a title card with that familiar series of X's and dashes appears. Though the six-digit code had previously leaked through NPR's All Things Considered, the title card confirms its placement at the front of the unfolding cypher: 699742 / 628315 / 717228 / 936557 / ------ / 519225. Any C.I.A. code breakers out there care to level a guess yet?

Random House imprint pencils in "multidimensional" fall 2015 release Rock memoirs have been a booming business lately, with '60s guitar whizzes Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, and Pete Townshend lending their bylines to bestsellers detailing their behind-the-scenes (mis)adventures. The hip-hop memoir has, more quietly, offered itself as a more innovative form: Jay-Z's Decoded, in 2010, didn't dish about the rapper's much-mythologized past so much as deftly break down his rhymes and argue convincingly for them as great art. Now, Spiegel & Grau, the same Random House imprint that printed Jay-Z's book, is set to put out another convention-bucking hip-hop memoir, this time by the Beastie Boys. As the New York Times reports, the publisher is expected to announce this week that Mike D and Ad-Rock have inked an agreement to publish an as-yet-untitled book, available to be ch-checked out of libraries in fall 2015. With hip-hop journalist Sacha Jenkins on board as an editor, the book will reportedly follow a loose, oral-history format, but with what the Times calls "a strong visual component"; other writers will also contribute. "The first words out of Mike's mouth were, 'I don't want to do a straight memoir,'" the group's agent, Luke Janklow, told the Times. Spiegel & Grau publisher Julie Grau described the planned book as "a multidimensional experience" with "a kaleidoscopic frame of reference." Janklow, the agent, reportedly said previous discussions of a potential Beastie Boys book went by the wayside as the group's third member, MCA, suffered from cancer. MCA, whose given name was Adam Yauch, died last May. He was 47.
