Kings of Leon vs Lykki Li and the Harrods food court

Apperently drunk driving is not an issue here.

Food: The Harrods food court is amazing. If you can stumoch their outragus prices it's ther prefect place to indulge your tastse buds. Either champagnie and oysters, or the guy that sings Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro" while making your pizza, or the oversized ice cream sundays. Yum!


Jam of the Week:

Music: Rusko "Hold On" Sub Focus remix

Music:Rusko "Hold On" Sub Focus remix

So sick when the beat hits and the cyber synth kicks in. Wow.

Thank the lord for countries that allow children pubs and Bag Raiders

Culture: My Euro Trip: London Street Culture: World Cup=PUBS:

Today was 80 degrees in the wonderful city of London. The world cup is in full heat as England played today in South Africa (and won) and men had their tops off at the parks.

Food:
Did you know that you can sharpen knives on the bottom of ceramic plates? I didn't.

Music:
Bag Raiders are fun. Me likie the Flight Facilities Business Class Lounge and LIght Year Remix of "Turbo Love"



Oh and lets not for get one of my favorite dudes at the moment Siruismo and his remix of Bag Raiders' tune "Shooting Stars". This is so good!

Sleigh Bells "Tell Em" and Dead Weather "I'm Man"

Packing for my summer Euro jammy and got through it rock'n the new Dead Weather album and Sleigh Bells.

Sleigh Bells rocks. It reminded me a little of what Wild Stallions would sound like.

Man Purses and Black Tights

My Euro vacation:


It's my second day in London and I can't help but notice that most women are waring black leggings and most men are sporting a man purse. Here are my theories on this fashion Phnom.
London is a city were once your out your out for the day. I guess most women ware leggings because the weather can change from warm to cold quickly and if one is sporting some short little number you have to be prepared. Black leggings are safe and go with most everything, but what I realized (when there are so many walking around me) is that there is a range of black. From texture to fabric to thickness to lace, there is actually a way to personalize the common black leg. They don't have to simply be the slightly shiny kind that when stretched over your ass you can see you panties. you know the ones that I'm talking about.
The man purse in this city is another issue. Back home in LA I do not see the man purse, but here it is every where. Once again, once our out for the day your out. Therefore I understand that men need to cary with them their various necessities that will take them from day to night. But lets face it, I am in Europe the home of the metro sexual man.


Well, anyway, here's a cute little video by Sia:

Karen O’s Wild Thing (Archived from my website Wednesday, October 21, 2009)

As a whole I can’t say that I loved or hated Spike Jones' interpreted film of “Where the Wild Things Are,” but the pieces that make up the film are true artistry. Look at the puppets for example. They are perfect! And then the art work on the houses that the monsters lived is amazing. But most of all the soundtrack, I felt was the best part. It added to the film in so many ways. Standing round of applause for Miss O!

First Touch- It’s Yours & Sexy Sushi-I’m Afraid (Archived from my website)

One of my first loves of music is early 80’s R&B. This comes from having a radio in my room as a school girl and listening to it for hours. I would even sit and wait for hours with my tape recorder ready so I could have a copy of my favorite jams. These were my first mix tapes.
That is why I really enjoy First Touch. This duo is putting down some serious 80’s, disco, funk. They have captured the vibe and brought it to the new millennium.
Check out more from the band:

The french do it better. They really have the dirty electro down. Sexy Sushi, coming out of Paris, encompasses all the greatness of French disco and electro punk. Not all their tracks are as polished as ‘I’m Afraid.’ Some tracks are dance orientated and others are like noise and still others have a bit of happy pop. If you like any of the genres I’ve mentioned above, check out Sexy Sushi. Here’s some links to more:

This is my favorite little jam off of Temporary Pleasure, Simian's latest EP.  The collaborations is so nice.  Beth Ditto has the most amazing voice. Any track she blesses is good. I have to say that the reason S.M.D. is worthy of your time is because they are meticulous at the placement of each and every sound you hear. I realized this when I went to see them live a couple of weeks ago. They are masters at manipulating all of those little sound machines.


Here’s some other S.M.D. track that make me happy:
Hustler
Hot Dog
Ladyflash remix
Are You The One Remix

Miami Horror-’Don’t Be on With Here” (Archived from my website)

A couple of weeks ago at the Mandrake DrewTube played a video by Miami Horror. I was blown away. Not only was the it the coolest 80’s music video not coming out of the 80’s but the song was so outrageously disco, synth, I almost lost my mind. This is all the best that the 80’s gave us, reused and mashed up into one of the best little electro, disco dances tracks that I’ve heard in a while. The entire album is good. Also not to be missed are their remixes.

Junior Boys - ‘Hazel (A=Archived from my website)

Maybe l love this song because I have hazel eyes or maybe I love this song because the beat knocks.  Since I got this song last week I’ve been putting it in the mix and can’t help but let the whole song play out.  Over the past six years the Junior Boys have been releasing electro-dance tracks with a disco feel that keep the party people moving. 

White Williams and my Little Radio radio show (Archived from my website)

My new discovery this week is White Williams. Last week I download the album ‘Smoke’ and haven’t stopped playing it since. There is something very dreamy about his music.
