andrew spear and nate day are my favorite people EVER.

so, i haven't updated here in a MINUTE, but... here's some mixes to listen to on the metro this summer. mstrkrft are total dicks and mot and andrew owned their asses in orlando two weeks ago, but this is one hell of a mixtape. the crookers mixtape isn't totally what i was expecting from them, but i like it a lot. also i have a mixtape from the lovely and talented nate day from LA. nate made this mix for www.glenjamn.com, but sent it to me and i appreciate it none the less.

Nate Day's Glen Jamn Summer Mix

DJ Mehdi and SoMe DJing at PS 14 last year @ 8:00am... good times...

there's no place i'd rather be then at the South Seas Hotel in South Beach tonight, to see andrew and tommy open up for justice and mehdi. but i'm going to skip seeing Adam Freeland at Le Royale and go to a house party next door. but, being surrounded by 200 people from miami spilling drinks on me and burning me with cigarettes is almost as good. oh, except not at all.

so, here's some "miami". i love this surkin song. i saw him with Para One and BobMo last night and they were very cool. but, i was the only person besides my room mate and some interviewers from SubDrive. i'll have to post the video interviews when they get posted. because i'm in one talking shit.

À La Mode.

La Mode are certainly in fashion, with original songs, some great remixes (check out the digitalism & bloc party mixes on their myspace), an NLLR mixtape, and, a french name. They're from Melbourne, Australia, like some of your other favorites (hello Midnight Juggernauts). Perhaps they'll be the next addition to Modular Records. Enjoy.

so, i've been watching a degrassi marathon on "The N", and between commercials i caught this new Ashlee Simpson video. for some reason i can't help but love it. then when i was googling it i realized that it's produced by timbaland. and i immediately felt better about being so drawn to it.

coco just showed me this video and it has changed my life. i don't know if this has gotten a lot of circulation on the youtube circuit. mostly because i never know whats popular.

i haven't been keeping up lately. i saw yelle and TEPR with grand marnier february 21. yelle was super sweet, TEPR was dope even though my room mate grabbed his dick, and grand marnier loved her for doing so.

my boys bloody beetroots are playing at studio b this friday with... well, you know.

also playing friday night are my current house guests, fluokids. to hear about what we've been doing in nyc, check pharrell and guillaume's (aka redhotcar) mysapce blog. there's lesbians and sneakers and a lot of sitting around my apartment.

no music in this post, sorry! there's too much blogging in my living room tonight.

bloody hell.

i'm done dating french boys. i prefer italians, like bloody beetroots and en masse. they're faster, dirtier, and they'll make you pasta after sex.

>

i posted a mixtape in my last post by the bloody beetroots, and the day i did mr. bob rifo of bbs sent me this mixtape for NLLR. i've been to busy to post it, and after seeing it posted around the blog community, i decided to post about them again, this time with two of their original tracks. feel free to hop over to BRRRLIN and download some of the remixes featured on both of the mixes posted here. my personal fave: miscommunication.

the bloody beetroots: i love the bloody beetroots.
the bloody beetroots: butter [draft].

the bloody beetroots: NLLR mixtape 012.

Tracklist:
01. Goose - Everybody (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
02. Hostage - Gluttony (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
03. Martin Solveig - C'est la Vie (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
04. The Bloody Beetroots - We Are From Venice
05. The Bloody Beetroots Feat. Congorock - Brutus Fucks Popeye
06. The Bloody Beetroots - Butter (Ep Version)

15. Goose - Blackgloves (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)

En Masse are a classic example of why i'm not dating any more french boys. i'm sticking to italians. why? gli italiani lo fanno meglioo. i know nothing about them aside from the fact that they're cute, and their music and remixes are dark, dirty, and i fucking love it.

en masse: lime.
depeche mode: master & servant [en masse sweaty rework].
big mojo: deep passion [en masse remix].

apparantly MIA was in new york last week. one of my friends claims to have drooled over her from the other end of the subway car she entered on bleecker street. this is neither here nor there, i'm mostly just jealous. i've heard some remixes of the hit "paper planes" so far, but of course any remix by DFA takes the fucking cake and a scoop of ice cream.

MIA: paper planes [DFA Remix]

Dmitry Fyodorov was some famous russian athlete who had a tragic ice accident and disappeared for 30 years to be reincarnated into two faceless DJs. sounds like... kavinsky, right? i don't know much about these guys other than that their music is banging and will be probably be gracing a mixtape near you, considering the blog hype they've been receiving.

Dmitry Fyodorov: 1-b1 [2008 re-edit].
Dmitry Fyodorov: the chiefs.
Dmitry Fyodorov: carnage.

perhaps you've heard that chromeo are re-releasing "needy girl" with several different remixes. no no, this isn't 2006, it's 2008, three years after that single dropped. just when you thought you'd stop hearing it at *indie night*. the whole thing seems unnecessary to me, BUT there are two here that i wouldn't mind hearing dropped, especially the teenage bad girl remix. also, check out the datA remix, as he is one of my absolute favorites.

chromeo: needy girl [teenage bad girl remix].
chromeo: needy girl [datA remix].

happy new blog.

RIP

so, when my laptop got fucked i sort of abandoned my other blog, jets to paris, and i'm starting this new one. like my last one, there will probably be little to it other than cursing and music. on that note, here's the debaucherous new bangers and cash video for the dope track "loose", and a bunch of mp3s i uploaded for your downloading pleasure. yeah.

felix da housecat: like something for porno.
hot chip: ready for the floor [soulwax edit].
britney spears: outrageous [felix cartal remix].
feist: my moon my man [boys noize remix].
kid sister: control [1/2alive's tonyx edit].
klaxons: as above, so below [justice remix].
thieves like us: drugs in my body [j.a.b. remix].
mr. oizo rage remix: killing in the name of sebastian.
bloc party: flux [jfk remix].
the bloody beetroots: butter.
lcd soundsystem: new york i love you, but you're bringing me down.
m.i.t.c.h. feat. uffie and feadz: fais rentrer les euros.
interpol: mammoth [erol alkan rework].

bang gang grey disc mixtape.
