Nineteen Ninety Never

Its the beginning of March here in Toronto (actually, its probably the beginning of March in the whole world) and the weather is unseasonably warm. To celebrate, I ate lunch on a patio.

Is this the beginning of summer? I hope so, and to get in the mood I’ve been listening to these smart Beach Boys remixes.

Beach Boys - Good Vibrations (Stanton Warriors Remix)

Beach Boys - Wouldn’t It Be Nice (TheGirlsCanHearUs! Remix)

More love for TheGirlsCanHearUs! and a few more Beach Boys here.

The lovely girl in that photo? That’s Heather and she writes Toronto Uncovered.

Or at least that’s the way it comes across in this re-work of Britney’s 3 by Toronto’s own Scotty Dynamo. Give it a listen, then catch him where ever you go. He’s ScottyDynamo on  Twitter, MySpace and YouTube and he is going to be what you’re telling your friends about when they ask if you’ve listened to any good music lately.

3 Remix - Britney Spears feat. Scotty Dynamo

Work It - Scotty Dynamo

You can also grab a couple more of his tracks on a post I wrote a few months ago here or hit up Audio Porn Central for a good write up about him. They’ve even got a few more tracks from him.

After reading about him on Tzero I haven’t really stopped listening to Scotty Dynamo. It really doesn’t get much better than white teenagers making club raps about partying and living the good life. Seriously.

Scotty Dynamo - Cars Glamour Fame Money

Scotty Dynamo - Make It Right (Remix)

I had trouble choosing what tracks to post because they’re all gold.

Find the kid on MySpace, Twitter, Flickr and buy his stuff on iTunes.

Do it now, so you can tell your friends you were listenin’ to Scotty Dynamo before he blew up.

Well, actually you can. But this one of him from a few weeks ago is pretty good.

The Birthday Girl (behind him) also looks pretty good.

Anyways, here are some tracks from that night:

Ladyhawke - Paris Is Burning (Cut Copy Remix)

Ladyhawke - Paris is Burning

Bag Raiders - Sneaky Dub

CSS - Move (Cut Copy Remix)

PNAU featuring LadyHawke - Embrace

As much as I hate to post a video with out a related audio file, I couldn’t resist this one:

LIGHTS - Drive My Soul (official music video)

According to a poster I walked by on College Street this morning, she’s going to be at the Mod Club on Friday. It’s a six pm show, so I don’t know if I can be bothered.

Lights on MySpace

Dmoney says that Drums of Death is coming to Toronto this Friday and that you should “Go to the show so you can tell all your friends next year that you were into him before he blew the fuck up. ”

We looked up some of his shit, and it is fully sick.

Lesser Panda - Carousel (Drums of Death Remix)

Tricky - Council Estate (Drums of Death Remix)

See you at CiRCA on Friday.

SEK-ONE from The Curb Crawlers music blog is going to be DJing with Alias.
