Video Party Dance
This Friday So Whut? and Bizarre Styles present VIDEO DANCE PARTY!
Set list is created from You Tube videos projected onto the wall.
This crew is made up of local artists and writers so the songs and videos are… different.
Yay. Monday.
Here’s some synthy optimism to get you through the worst part of the week…
Sébastian Tellier – Roche (Breakbot Remix)
Resolutions…
Happy New Year…?
My New Year resolutions for 2k9:
No more fist pounds. If someone comes towards you trying to intiate one, the new thing to do is, “the downward wrist chop”, followed by a firm and audible “no”.
Try to quit smoking. Why not quit smoking rather than trying to? because smoking is so great. Everyone who smokes and tried to quit knows this, sometimes it takes quiting to realize. The most interesting people at any party are always found in the smoking area.
Be really mean. 2k9 is the year of being really mean. The hippie ideal of loving one another has not worked out. This year i’m going to try to be the biggest asshole / jerk / shit head I can. So far it feels great.
Lastly, because I can’t think of any other things that I could improve on, don’t hoard all the good songs. I have this imaginary mix tape that im always making and I save all the good songs for it. Fuck it. Heres to 2k9, isn’t it amazing? How many days till summer? Thankgod for music.
From our BFF’s site Ohh! Crapp.
The Teenagers – Feeling Better (Minitel Rose Remix)
From This Scene Is Dead. Spacey techno to bug out to.
Ponytail are from Baltimore. This one has spazz pop written all over it.
Is this band really from Montreal?
Of Montreal – Engager
Lifelike usually lays it on a little too thick for my liking. this one is just right
Lifelike – L.O.V.E. Is What You Need
From You Can Call Me Pelski. Dubstepp.
Amy Winehouse – Love Is A Losing Game (Moody Boyz Vocal Mix)
Who won the Passion Pit remix competition on this song anyways? Who won the Reckenor one also? so many questions…
Passion Pit – Sleepyhead (LOL Boys Remix)
Maroon 5 have a remix album out with some top notch producers on board. They have done a great job of actually making M5 listen-able.
Maroon 5 – This Love (Cut Copy Galatic Beach House Mix)
I love this. Songs like this cheer me up.
Ruby Suns – Palmitos Park (El Guincho Cover)
