    More Pirate Break-Booty Than Treasure
    POSTED

     



    In an earlier Cool Accidents musing we asked whether Bruno Mars had taken styling tips from Aussie legend Mark Holden.

    Now as his new video for Treasure arrives to warm up our oh-so-knowing disco souls we are asking whether maybe he copped his licks from elsewhere this time?

     



    Maybe from the rather great (and criminally under-bought) Breakbot album By Your Side.

    And in particular the jam that is Baby I’m Yours.

    Here’s what Breakbot had to say about the whole thing

    “To those who think that it’s just a coincidence, or that "we are both inspired by the same artists”, let me just tell you that Bruno asked my label if he could cover “Baby I’m Yours” a few months ago and we said no. Then he recorded “Treasure”. To be perfectly honest, I’m not mad at all, if anything I am rather flattered that someone selling millions of mp3s is interested in my music.“

    AND JUST IN CASE YOU NEEDED ANYMORE CONVINCING.



    Bonus Beat: Breakbot recently remixed fellow Parisians Phoenix and turned their track Trying To Be Cool into a delicious slice of French house. Stream it/download it below for FREE!
