3, 2, 1………..after a ludicrous amount of final examinations.

tired, relieved, exhausted, SO FUCKING HAPPY.
SO FUCKING DONE

…until next week. But that’s just what I do.

Here’s something australia does very well. –An insane original by Whitenoise whom I’ve swooned about. The synths they use are unbelievable and they cut right through EVERYTHING. You can have as much ambient noise as you want, but if you blast Whitenoise, everyone’s going to hear it and that’s what I like.

Australia, again. Look out for some more original tracks by Whitenoise soon.

White Noise - It’s What We Do

These next 2 sound like the way I feel right now.

things i love: parisian lyrics (when they’re in english)

It’s pretty much a given that I will love any track The Teenagers sends out to its e-audience. If you haven’t checked out their tracks, you must, and you will.

I love parisian lyrics (when they’re in english) because they are brutally and perhaps unknowingly honest. Somewhere in the translation of french to english, something happens that strips the words of all ulterior meanings and kinda slice you right across the throat. That semi-gay-retard sounding (totally cool) parisian accent just adds to the honesty of the words.

Those of you who know me know that I NEVER listen to lyrics, but this is where I make my exception. That’s gotta be saying something.

Here’s a Poney Poney (awesome, stream junior 345394934 times on myspace please.) remix of the Teenagers - Love No. Just listen to the monologue!!!

The fact that the track itself is awesome is almost secondary this time.

big ups to the big ballers at redthreat for putting this one up!!
Teenagers - Love No (Poney Poney emotion remix)

The Teenagers are definitely veterans here. In case you were born yesterday, here’s a live mix they did in ‘06 for Pharrell of the FLUOKIDS on his radio show, “miam les fruits” with radio campus. It is tops.

to FRANCEMANIA.

I’ve been blasting Teenage Bad Girl for days in my car. Coming out of France, they bring none other than the sickest electro ever? it’s a little dark and completely satisfying.

did I mention that I <3 vocoders? yeah. there's lots of that.

FEAST:
Teenage Bad Girl - Tales from the Pigs

note: about half way through, it starts getting dddiiirrrrty.

But I’d much rather listen to music. Well, most of you have heard of Scenario Rock because of Justice and the remix of Skitzo Dancer but I know a lot of you haven’t heard the original band’s sounds. This is a rather recent track from Scenario Rock and the lead singer who’s also featured on DVNO from Justice’s upcoming album is in full force with his quirky lyrics (funny as hell) and awesome accent.

…and if you know me, you know I’m not one to listen to lyrics.
“who’s that chick, she smells like an armpit”
“i won’t be difficult ’cause i’m not brad pitt”

new track: scenario rock - Pefect Love Antidote
