I'm back in 'murica. The things I like best are that I don't have to use bottled water to brush my teeth and I can eat and drink whatever I want without worrying about getting sick.
So I'm really liking this jam lately. Whenever I hear it I just want to hear it again. And it's a good video. Thoughts?
Instagram is fun, it's a smartphone app where you can put filters on your photos. Add me, I'm awiseman on there too!
What exactly is Member Review? And how do they decide if a Hopeful becomes a regular SG? I can't find it on here. Gracias!
awiseman:
anybody?
so I'm getting into the New York no wave/post-disco stuff from the late 70s and early 80s: ESG, Liquid Liquid, Bush Tetras, Konk etc. I made a playlist on Youtube if you are so inclined. Any other jams you'd suggest? I didn't put on anything like A Certain Ratio since they aren't from NYC, but still are awesome.
I tend to like the more up-tempo...

so it's my birthday. I turn 30, which I am cool with. Plus I got a funny email saying don't call it 30, call it XXX, because that sounds cooler. I like that plan.
cockzombie:
well Happy Birthday!!
so I found this band from a mixtape my buddy made awhile ago -- Theatre of Disco is an electronic group from Australia. What is it with Australia and good electronic music? Cut Copy, The Presets, Avalanches, etc etc.
Anyway, the trio of Theatre of Disco don't really have a sound I can nail down -- it's mostly dancey electronic rock, or maybe rocky electronica....

thanks!
so this video is pretty hilarious.
I can't embed it, but here's the link: Sebastien Tellier - "Kilometer"
what is it about the French? I'd never really heard Sebastien Tellier before, but I'm liking it. Faux 80s-ish slow jams.

so it's St. Patrick's Day. We are having a whiskey party at my house, which is either a great idea or a terrible idea.
Here's a video about a famous leprechaun.
As Stephen Malkmus <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaDC7vQCYCs#t=5m37s">once said</a>, "Irish folktales scare the shit out of me."

This summer I got to see Bootsy Collins as well.
That was a trip & a half.
