Look At The Sky

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

A few years ago, no one even knew about Deadmau5. Now, he’s everywhere and its like people can’t get enough of him, and a friend of mine even claims they went to highschool together.

Ghosts’n'Stuff is almost a classic these days, but his remixes are also definitely worth a listen.

Nathan Fake - The Sky Was Pink (Deadmau5 Remix)

Also check out this video of him playing a club in Ibiza. Like DJ Cal, I also lost my shit around the 2:17 mark. The ‘mau5 also gets a ton of cred from me for calling his tour “For Lack Of A Better Name” and his album “Random Album Title” like he just don’t give a fuck.

She’s French

Anna Karina was Jean-Luc Godard’s muse, his starlett and his wife. She was the main actress in most of the films he directed and this includes a couple of my favorites: Pierrot Le Fou and Alphaville.

I always thought she was hot, but I also always thought that it must have been weird for Godard to watch Jean-Paul Belmondo (possibly the coolest guy in the world) always play the romantic lead across from her.

Anyways, here are some tracks for the francophile in you:

Deejay Raph - Fuck Me I’m French (Pance Party Remix)

Les Petite Pilous - Dodo Electro

M.I.T.C.H ft Feadz & Uffie - Fais Rentres Les Euros (Larytta Remix)

And courtesy of my new favorite blog, fellow Torontonians Salacious Sound:

Friendly Fires - Paris (Computer Club’s Aeroplane vs. Au Revoir Simone Edit)

Fitte Prins

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

I’ve been looking for an excuse to post this shirt for a while, and IllStM gave me that excuse when he sent me an email with the “Do You Want To Splash Your Blog with Some Fresh Norvegian Blood?” as the subject and a couple of bangin’ tracks attached. “Fitte Prins” is the Norwegian phrase that translates roughly as Playboy - the kind of gadabout ladies man that we can all admire.

Since we’re talking about fitteprinsen here, it also felt appropriate to post this other track courtesy of The Hood Internet.

IllStM feat. Hanny - All Classy For Me

The Hood Internet - Candy Coated Chromophodia (Candy Coated Killahz vs. Gui Boratto)

Rock Stars and Paparazzi

You just have to listen to this absolute banger, straight outta the ghettos of Switzerland, from a group of guys calling themselves Subdelux.

Subdelux - Paparazzi (the video for it isn’t too bad either)

Also, just because 199x loves the Disco Villains right now, here’s their little treatment of N*E*R*D’s Rock Star. I thought it went well with the Subdelux track. You know, thematically.
