i know you've always suspected.

i give Scott Curtis, my exclusive story.

New Caged Baby, At LAST!

Cagedbaby - Medicine from Southern Fried Records on Vimeo.

I'll try not to hate on the song too much because the video is so dope. Let's see what the album brings.

Monstar Makes Cute Clothes

Look how cute this stuff is!! I used to go to the place in Dallas called the 'Lakewood Lounge', total dive, just how I like it. Anyway in the men's room above the urinal there was some graffiti of a cupcake. In the icing of the cupcake was written '27-28 life ok'.

Irregardlessly these belts are on sale for $15. Buy one for yourself or for me. They also have cute stees.

New Basement Jaxx Kind of Sounds Like Old Basement Jaxx

I think this sounds just like a slower version of Romeo. I'm not saying I don't like it. Has it been long enough to have a renaissance of your own sound? Who can say. I'm pretty sure you'll never se this video on MTV.

Pigeon Dance, I Hate Pigeons So Hard

I wish I could fully explain to you the train of thought that prompts the posting of these videos. But I'm not really sure that it would do anything to aid your comprehension.

Do The Hustle/Bump/Electric Slide/Bus Stop...

so...the other day i woke up with 'the chicken dance' as my ring tone. i can only assume that something like the above occurred...

Fischerspooner and The Juan Maclean

So, I found out why nobody is talking about this Fischerspooner record ironically titled, Entertainment. Um, it's not any good. It's also on a different label like all of their records. Which makes me wonder are they just insufferable to work with or what. It sounds like Casey totally phoned this one in. And it seems like half the tracks were on last years Danse en France and Best Revenge singles. And frankly were far superior as club anthems. It's not a total wash, there are a couple of good tracks, To the Moon and Amuse Bouche.

You know what else sucks? The Future Will Come by The Juan MacLean. Do you remember the genius record by Kelley Polar, Love Songs of the Hanging Garden? This Juan MacLean record is like the cheapest knock-off. It's practically unlistenable. And I'm a Juan MacLean fan! Ugh, I'm gritting my teeth just thinking about it! I gotta go.

Stees Nust

It's dope, it's from Spain, it's far from cheap. But don't you want one really bad? Dobodob, is the maker. They only have 7 designs at the moment. Which, I think, is not a bad thing. I mean, what else do I need to say?






This T is unbelievable. I know I'm a sucker for a naked lady T, but this is like, high class, right? Grnappletree, has AMAZING stuff. You really owe it to yourself to take a look at these T's because they are so good. They've also got a small selection of button-ups, outerwear and, accessories. The Holiday 08 stuff is on sale and is also a force to reckoned with. The other clothes have a definite rockabilly feel to them but will transfer to hipster street very easily.

Dan Deacon is Like Sunshine for my Ears and Tiga Makes Me Want To Dance

I remember the first time I heard Loveless by My Bloody Valentine. It was a revelation. I didn't know music could sound this way. Now, I'm not saying the Bromst, sounds like Loveless, beyond the 5 million layers it takes to make this kind of aural burnout riot. Bromst is like Loveless for nerds. Except nerds are cool now. And Bromst, is for lack of a better word, happy. It's like the bastard child of Kevin Shields, Smurfs, an 808, and sunbeams. It makes me feel like I'm mining secret treasure, have a pocket full of pixie dust and might need to have pancakes for dinner.

This Tiga record, Ciao!, albeit not as revelatory as the aforementioned, has still got more peaks than valleys. More of a straight up 'club' record than Sexor, it's a lot of fun. He's such a cheeky punk you're not sure if you want to slap him or pinch his cheek. The answer, shake your booty. Highlights: What You Need, Overtime, Beep-Beep-Beep. Lowlights: Turn The Night On, Gentle Giant.

It does make me wish for a new Scissor Sisters record and light a little fire to track down the new Fischerspooner. Which seems to be oddly black listed within my group...I wonder if it has anything to do with...I'll save my gossip for another time.
