Duck Sauce, the eminent producer duo comprised of A-Trak and Armand Van Helden, are primed to drop their second official single, “Barbra Streisand” on October 12th. If 3 million YouTube views of last year’s debut “aNYway” are any indicator, the official release of “Barbra Streisand” will be met with rabid anticipation as fan-recorded bootlegs have fueled blog excitement all summer.

"Barbra Streisand" continues to perfect the Duck Sauce sound, which joyously mashes classic disco house with forward-thinking dancefloor energy and expert production. A-Trak and AVH are bona fide DJ heroes whose team-ups are fueled by anything-goes samples, an almost childlike sense of fun, and 100% NYC attitude. This approach has made Duck Sauce fans-for-life out of partygoers around the globe, and will continue to convert anyone within earshot of "Barbra"'s instantly addictive, whistling hook.

For the video, director So Me (Justice, Kid Cudi, MGMT) uses the song to soundtrack a hyperactive, ecstatic New York City travelogue. Shot over a week of long nights out with A-Trak and Armand (including live footage from the Fool's Gold "Day Off" labor day block party), the clip is a pop-art adventure starring commandeered taxis and hotdog stands, sexy strangers, and a who's-who of famous friends: rappers, producers, indie rockers, graffiti writers and nightlife icons all take turns adding their own special sauce to the song, turning "Barbra Streisand" into one of this year's must-rewind clips.

Watch the video and see just how many cameos you can catch, then pick up the "Barbra Streisand" single (featuring striking sleeve art from Fool's Gold art director Dust La Rock) on October 12th.

    So much DSLRness but it's still so goddamn amazing.
  • Jkrais 1 year ago
    what is DSLRness?
  • Martin Lindelöf 1 year ago
    SLR or DSLR cameras, like Nikon and Canon which nowdays has the capability to film footage at fullHD res 24fps.

    popular by directors! because it's small and handy and has great performance in bad lit enviroments.

    hated more or less by production houses because it's a pain to track the footage or work with it since it's encoded and also has rolling shutter issues /jelly image if you move fast side to side/
  • Joe Hrdina 1 year ago
    As much as "shutter roll" is an undesired flaw in Nikon (or other DSLR) video, I kinda like it. It's nostalgic like when a VHS tape had bad tracking. Super!
  • Ethan Bagwe 1 year ago
    small price to pay a few jelly images for the 10's of k you'll save with a DSLR vs big huge $$$$ cameras plus they have a more film look to them then tape

    what the hell am i talking about? do either of you record or produce? obv. not if you're asking me this. now go back to "raving" and leave the music making to people with taste besides just their tongue.
  • Jo P. 1 year ago
    I've been in this industry for years man, I live and breath this shit. Had to the chance to meet more artists than you could dream of, including Alain and Armand.

    This is a fun track without any pretention. You wish you were as good as them.
