A Taste:

Santogold, Devil Doll, Kings of Leon, Muse

How do you join Sorority Row’s exclusive club?

“Initiation was—Can you salsa dance?” laughs Jamie Chung.

Audrina Patridge adds, “The first night I got there we all went salsa dancing, and we bonded right away. We were very lucky to have such a great cast. It was a great balance with the humor and horror. It was an incredible experience! They made it look like I was actually stabbed. They made this incision that look so real, and I was walking around with this huge hole in my chest with blood everywhere [Laughs].”

Sorority Row has it all. It’s got its fair share of scares and laughs, and Audrina and Jamie had a hand in both. However, they weren’t just listening to salsa music on set. Audrina and Jamie shared their playlists with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature.

Check out their playlists below and in this exclusive video and catch Sorority Row in theaters on September 11!

Jamie Chung’s Playlist:

1. Santogold

2. Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs

Jamie: I’m kind of obsessed with Santogold and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Audrina Patridge’s Playlist:

1. Santogold

2. Devil Doll

3. Muse

4. Kings of Leon

Audrina: I love Santogold. Devil Doll is actually really good. It’s very jazzy and burlesque, yet rock n’ roll. Muse’s new album comes out soon, and I’m excited about that. I like Kings of Leon too!

Jamie: They’re just so hot [Laughs].

Audrina: I’ve actually seen them a couple of times!

A Taste:

Louie Vega, Santogold, Major Lazer

In order to become Gamer’s baddest villain, Terry Crews turned to his iPod.

“I was spinning all kinds of dark music while I was working out in order to go to that place,” says Terry.

While spending extra time in the gym, he kept bumping N.W.A., Marilyn Manson, Lil Jon, Ice Cube and The Cure. It worked—because Hackman is one of the most sinister and psychotic villains to tear up screens in a long time. Anyone that can go toe-to-toe with Gerard Butler deserves props…

Terry’s musical tastes are quite diverse though, and he shared his playlist with ARTISTdirect.com editor Rick Florino in this exclusive feature.

Check out Terry’s playlist below and don’t miss him in Gamer in theaters now!

Terry Crews’ Playlist:

1. Santogold

I’m into Santogold. She’s amazing!

2. Louie Vega

3. Mr. V

4. Juan Atkins

5. Derek Saunders

Because I came up in the Midwest, I’m a big house music fan. I love Louie Vega. He’s my number one DJ. Mr V is just awesome too. I come from the Juan Atkins- and Derek Saunders-era back in Detroit. That was the birth of techno.

6. Biz Markie

There was a time when hip hop, techno and house were all the same—they were all one thing. A lot of people don’t remember it, but I do. Biz Markie actually made one of the baddest house beats ever. It’s a song called “Follow Me,” and it was a big house jam.

7. Dimlight

I get these real crazy remixes on a web site called Tracksource. It’s really good eclectic house. There’s another guy named Dimlight who’s just insane. He reminds me of Diplo—it’s really sampled-up super music. Right now, I’m on Dimlight. It’s so insane and creative. There are crazy beats and weird sounds.

8. Flying Lotus

9. Major Lazer

Major Lazer’s hot!

10. The O’Jay’s

Then I go into the oldies. I love The O’Jay’s. I’m very eclectic with my music. As an actor, you have to be.

11. Nirvana

Kurt Cobain and all of that stuff is just as powerful as Cube is. Pain comes from the same place. That’s it.
