If y'all haven't heard, why don'tchya catch up!?
Got my grubby lil' fingers on these 2 mp3's fast. Freshess like lettuce, tomato & munster on rye, these two new ditties gonna make ya'' cry. Waking up at 5 in the morning does have it's benefits. I don't have much news about these 2, so sit back and peep with yaearhole.
A collective less than 30 plays total. THIS IS RYPE! I'm buyin a copy on June 24th (lil promo)
Hey, this is a video oriented website. Here are 2 that go well together.
Moi Caprice has been hiding in Denmark since the late nineties, all the while winning a TON of awards, including 'best Danish band'. The video goes through the typical story of some dude, named Michael, whom is supposed to be the lead singer. There are a ton of subtleties in this video, pay close attention.
(the high-res version - highly recommended)
Here's the video for 'Beautiful Life' by Gui Boratto. I first discovered this song on a basement dance floor. It pretty much kicked off the night. (I've been coppin' a lot from pitchfork, but hey, don't bite the hand that feeds ya.) The video just has that touch of GawD. It's as if it was just kind of . . . filmed, without any directing involved. That can be both good and bad for director, Cadú Datoro
Here's a quote from the boys. Peep this.
"It's back up. Ok, so why do these fools keep blasting me with these e-mails? But this is real. New site goes up today. Check it. All types of foolishness. Bloggishness, and even the odd new tour date. International, y'all! Hope you enjoy."
Remember when The Go! Team was tetering on the verge of extinction? Well, the sampling copyright fits are over and their 2nd album is on it's way.
Slated for a September release, the new album has some guest appearances (but not so many that it makes the album not their own i.e. *Dntel*). Included is a band from Brazil (home of Cansei De Ser Sexy, loosely translated - 'Tired of being sexy') that goes by the name Bonde Do Role, loosely translated to 'Trams of rolls it'. . . sounds a little sketchy, I need to brush up on my Portuguese.
When The Go! Team came to Indianapolis, the crowd was a snoozefest but they performed as if we had just won the Super Bowl (which occurred 3 months later, GO COLTS!)
PLEASE COME BACK!

Excellent video from Digitalism.
Their album Idealism is slated for a June 11th release. There is something in the air, a-whoa-ho.
His album dropped this week and so far is getting great reviews.
He's seen as heading a new genre centered in Baltimore known as 'future shock'. Loosely defined, future shock uses laptops, gadgets, synthesizers, electro acoustics and voice modulators. Oh yea, and goofy humor. This clip is a wonderful introduction to the man.
This future shock doesn't sound too far out there, but hey, new genres are always welcome. His album is wonderful the entire way through. The face doesn't match the dare I say, beauty of some songs on the album (i.e. Pink Batman)
Check it out for yourself
Ok, so the title's a little lame, anyways, striking resemblance, no? That's always a fun game :)

Although I was the last to discover 'Planet Earth', it seems this video alone can make up for that.
LOTS OF LIONS!!! Lot's of symbolic 'carnivoric broken hearts'.
Speaking of lots. . . theres a lot of folks in the music scene using this technique for video making, but this is the best I've seen by far. (it has it's fair share of epic moments)
This remix can do no wrong, Hot Chip Remixing Junior Boys. It's long, so why don't you surf awhile?
I love it.
