i bet i'm probably jamming out to last night a dj saved my life- dcup
poop deck/rave roof
I had been meaning to blog about Miike Snow (Andrew Wyatt, Christian Karlsson, and Pontus Winnberg), which you may know by their work as Bloodshy & Avant. They produced for Britney, Kelis, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, and Wyatt just co-produced Dan Merriweather's album w/ Mark Ronson. But now they have their own album which came out on May 12th and I'm digging it. His voice reminds me a little bit like Passion Pit's lead singer, but their music is a little more poppy and not as snyth-heavy, but still very dancey.
I'll be filling in for Chris Tassa. Bozick and I are a deadly combo- lots of raving and I got my dancin' shoes ready for tonight
I'm back at the Diner w/ Bradley, which is always a blast! This party is starting a little bit earlier- like 8ish or so. I think it's someone's bday?
Get your tickets quickly, fools! And this brings me to today's Daily Throwback, my favorite Aaliyah song (RIP), and her last video ever. I miss her everyday.

I know I know.. Mash-Ups are OVER, but you know what at the end of the day it can be fun. Now I admit, I am constantly skipping over Girl Talk's tracks on my ipod when it comes up on shuffle. He albums were more of a constant explosion of song after song. E-603 takes more a cautious effort in his mixtapes, and he lets many loops play for a while. He's mastered the timing of the "start and stop" aspect in mash-ups. Definitely, give his sophomore album Torn Up a chance, and if you haven't heard Something For Everyone, grab a hold of that too. Like I said, Aural Pleasure..
Naturally, I do a stunning karaoke version of this song. Enjoy folks! Apparently he has newish music too?
Secondly, Blur returned to the first place they had a show in 1988, The East Anglican Railway Museum, in Manchest and played a 2-hour set of all their classics. Apparently it was pretty amaze-balls. Without further ado......

Happy birthday, John! Shea who? Here's a mixtape i made for my buddy's birthday party-
Don't forget about to come see CB RADIO (DJ TMY AND BRADLEY) at the Duplex Diner tonight (18th and U) for a Pride Kick-Off celebration! I'll be mixing THE DIVANATOR live tonight and I got some other delicious surprises as well!
"i think large sunglasses look really neat does that make me cool does that make me cool i've got a rat-like dog in my handbag does that make me cool does that make me cool my dad was in a famous rock band does that make me cool does that make me cool"
The first leg of my new mixtape, THE DIVANATOR, is now recorded and ready for download! It was inspired by all of the gays who request really cliche gay diva music when I DJ. I usually just laugh, and I sometimes feel bad about it. But in the spirit of Pride, I thought I would give back and grace your ears with this delicious DJ TMY's raved out mixtape of some of our favorite divas.
Pride is coming up this weekend- and on Thursday I'll be releasing a very special mixtape called The Divanator when I DJ at the Duplex Diner w/ CB Radio!- The Divanator features raved out versions of all of our diva favorites who helped us come out of the closet. Here's a little preview featuring a mash up I made of Knightlife's Discotirso and Madonna's Into the Groove. Enjoy the sneak peek!
I heard another Chiddy Bang song today and had to find out what they're all about- basically they're this philly hip hop group that takes popular indie tracks and lays down some lyrics to them. Here's how they describe themselves:
Found this nice little mix of Daft Punk's Around the World going into LCD Soundsystem's Daft Punk is Playing at My House. Rumor has it LCD Soundsystem may have a new album in the works. HAWT. Think this little mix is gonna be perfect for the weekend.
Tone Loc collapsed and apparently had a seizure from overheating at an outdoor concert in Florida, but has been released from the hospital. Whew. I had a moment of silence for him when i was guest DJ'ing on Saturday night and found out. Here's a good Peaches mix in his honor- may Tone live long and prosper.
Well it's been a while since Yacht has done anything musically- but I just heard a new song called Psychic City from their upcoming album, See Mystery Lights due out July 28th. Not in love with the single, but it seems like a good preview of what might be on the rest of Yacht's new album- apparently it's a little more experimental but maintains a poppy side. I had to pull out my old school ipod to find some yacht stuff and I dug up some goodies.
FINALLY- the Frankmusik full-length album will be coming out June 22nd and will include songs that came out over a year ago- but at least the production sounds TONS better- as evidenced by the music video for Confusion Girl
so apparently my inability to get lazy gays to pay $10 in southwest dc at a venue they've never been to at a pool party during a thunderstorm was deserving of giving me the AXX after only 1 try.
I am loving on Colin Munroe so hard right now- the Toronto-based, self-proclaimed "music mutt" fuses some of my favorite genres together into a very, very fresh sound. His new Mixtape "The Unsung Hero" reminds me a lot of Phoenix's 2004 album "Alphabetical", his voice reminds me of a baritone Frankmusik, and his beats are straight hip hop.
