double trouble tonight.
remember Neon Coyote? Yeah, they’re kind of a big deal. Ever since their explosion onto the scene, they’ve had a steady uprising in popularity. If you looked at a chart of their success, it would look like the exact opposite of what a 12 month-current chart of the United States economy looks like.
So anyways, they’ve been like touring the world and shit. And playing huge 1000 people raves and shit. And pouring Cristal all over hipster bitches chests. They also have been enjoying a nice and relaxing time on their 42 million dollar yacht, reaping the benefits of being TTYC members.
Obviously tickets to their shows sell out within minutes and if you’re reading this, you’re either being unsociable at their party on your blackberry or you’re at home, being unsociable on your computer.
If you’re the latter, I have an underground bootleg recording of one of their shows. I can’t divulge much of the detail that went into procuring this mastermix, but it involved hacking, time travel, and 2 fatalities.

LA GREVE GENERALE!!!!!!!!!!
in the midst of their busy schedules, John from LAGREVE was able to throw this live set at me… and their style is getting excellently STEEZY. It cannot be contained. The intro sets you up for something fierce, and the rest of the set definitely lives up to it.

Choreo from germany is at it again, this time with a remix of Kelis - Milkshake. You probably already know that I’ve been freaking out over Choreo ever since, forever.
Although it doesn’t lose sight of the original Milkshake track (which can be dangerous), this track is straight Choreo from beginning to end. His twist puts a strange insanity to the track that can’t be overcome.
Things you need to watch out for: cutting synth guitar, hand claps, choreo-hats-snare, toy piano arpeggios. These things will kick you in the face if you’re not dancing.
Kelis - Milkshake (choreo re-metal)
Will Choreo-mania sweep the nation? With people make a special sign with their hands that stands for ‘Choreo’? Will he get to design his own clothing line with german designer Karl Lagerfeld? Will he play Madison Square Garden? When will people catch on to the fact that ‘dj’s playing live’ is really dj’s playing back cds?

OH HI< HELLO. Thanks for playing along with my lame April fool’s post and pretending like you were getting all emo about the blog RIPing. But TUFTSMANIA is not RIPing anytime soon. hopefully. MUSIC FOR ALL!
I still like Compact Discs. The audiophile in me cannot stand using the wireless radio transmitters to pipe my ipod through the car stereo system because it tends to muck up the already compressed sounds…. sad really.
A couple weeks ago I found myself at a friend’s party and upon arriving he was like,
HEY YOU HAVE MUSIC!!!
I was surprised they didn’t have someone on music duty already… but I’ll take any chance I can get to play my favorite music at really high volumes. luckily I kept a couple cds in the car.
Threw whatever I had into his CDJsomethingorothers and we were off to the races. All the tracks were scattered about so I tried to have some fun with whatever I could scan through before the previous track was over.
Kid Color’s “Digital Pussy” mashup of Daft Punk + Bangers and Cash was the definite 35 hit ultimate combo!!!
I
AM
YOUR
IMPROMPTU
PRTY STRTR.
so that’s why you should always keep the party nearby. (in the form of compact discs)
