Video: Cocaine sells Toilets
Its not often that a toilet manufacturer takes a real risk with there advertising dollars, but when they do. Why not go big right? Check out this commercial. Reminds me the Meatpacking district, but cleaner.
Remember how Daft Punk asked its fans to bring their video camera’s to the Keyspan Park Brooklyn concert. Will they just finished up editing all 250 camera’s into one giant camera mash up. Its pretty intense and might cause you a seizure but it its a great flashback to the event. It’s taken from the ‘Alive’ DVD, directed by Olivier Gondry & released at the end of November.
I’m not usually a huge fan for the FUN parties, but with MSTRKRFT playing who am I to judge. So if your not doing any of the other CMJ insanity head over to Studio B and show Canadian Electro some love!

They have got a few videos up on youtube, all are worth seeing, but Easy Love in my opinion is the best. Check it out.
I randomly fell into the NYPC some time last year. I was drunk and walking around Williamsburg and got texted that the The Juan Maclean was playing at some art gallery. So I showed up and found the NYPC playing. Needless to say I had a great time. They have such a high energy live act. Definitely worth checking out this Thursday.

Well it appears that D.A.N.C.E. has completely made it mainstream, making it to the late night talk shows. It’s great though! Get more people into good music and fun parties.
Went down to the Banks this weekend to check out some of my comrades perform bike tricks in honor of the Mash SF premier. I am no filmmaker, but I saw my old digital 8 camcorder sitting alone that Sunday morning so I decided to film it. Edited in iMovie. Ghetto style, but shows off some east coast talent.

Little late on posting this, but the old school techno heavyhitter Juan Atkins is playing NYC for free in celebration of Ms. Lauren Flax’s b-day. This is a small venue so be sure and RSVP!
I have been spending alot of time listening to mixes all over the blogosphere and without even noticing it realized the “Heavy Bass” movement was going soft, it was turning into more if a housey feel. Not a bad thing but different.
Starkey’s new mix isn’t housey, it is a return to “Heavy Bass” of ye olde. Its that heavy bass sound that the blog mixes have been moving away from over the Summer but still I have been craving. So thank you Starkey, you made my day at the office so much more enjoyable.
