where did all the magic go?

If you are awesome (like me) you will go see NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD LIVE! my friend Geordie is in it and his plays are super gory and funny so if you are in the bay area over the next three nights check it out.

A few more shows are going to be in the city over the next two months that everyone should see. In my book they all carry equal weight and none should be missed. To start, Flosstradamus and Chromeo are going to be here in late July along with Daft Punk. I know that Daft Punk is sold out but there must be a way to work around that. A plus is that Flosstradamus is only 10 bucks. Chromeo might be a little hard to get into but try to give them a chance.

I am Somebody feat. Chromeo - DJ Mehdi

In August Daniel Johnston and the Animal Collective will be in the city. I think they speak for themselves but here is a little sample:

Phantom of my own Opera - Daniel Johnston
Winter's Love (Live) - Animal Collective

p.s. Girl Talk in September. I call dibs.

A Quick One

This summer is going to be awesome. why? because Chromeo and Flosstradamus are going on tour together. Can you say RAD? nope, try totally radical! Anyways were are some new tracks from LRMDs favorite Flosstradamus.

Caitlin introduced me to this pretty awesome DJ named Half Price yesterday with his song Bizarre Love Panties. He still has a way to go but these tracks are really neat:
Bizarre Love Panties - DJ Half Price
My Piano (ft. Busta Rhymes) -DJ Half Price

My Friend Deacon LF has a few new tracks out. Check out his space and eat this:
Improvident Avarice - Deacon LF

And this one goes out to the kids:

It's Hardly Yugoslavia at All

So, when I heard that Cocorosie was playing in Santa Cruz, I thought that it just might be a show to look into. Yesterday I went down to Streetlight to see how much tickets would be and thats when the tsunami of pure awesomeness hit me. Cocorosie is not only playing at the Rio (where I saw Joanna Newsom last year) but Busdriver is opening for them. I cant think of a more random/brilliant line up to play at the old Fox Theatre (I think it is a Fox Theatre). To top it all off, tickets were only 15 bucks. This means if you are neat, living in the Santa Cruz area, and have 15 dollars there is no way you can pass off this show. They are playing on April 30th and tickets are still around at Streetlight so check it out AND check this super neat song out:
Ohio - Cocorosie

In other news I was at Peter's surprise birthday party at 1019 (pictures coming soon) and everyone went apeshit over Flosstradamus. Supply and demand:
Act a Fool - Flosstradamus
Girlie Rock - Flosstradamus

The Humpty Dance is Your Chance to do the HUMP

This weekend was super neat. My friends Dyll and Cass Hersey from the Death Lair had a rockstar party on Saturday. I went as David Bowie (with a "I fucked Mick Jagger" I made that day), there was a Axel Rose, Cyndi Lauper, and everyone else was Bon Jovi. Hands down the best dance party of the year, it even topped Aaron Carter's party. So, as a follow up to a awesome dance party, I will post some awesome dance music that I have been listening to when I take the bus to work.


Girl Talk has two new tracks out off of his EP Bone Hard Zaggin'. Sounds much more like Unstoppable than Night Ripper. I think his older stuff has really grown on me so it is nice to hear more new songs like these:
Pure Magic - Girl Talk
LC and Lo - Girl Talk


I downloaded Hollertronix Never Scared a few months ago after doing some heavy listening to Diplo's M.I.A. remixes (i.e. Lady Killer). I just recently started to listen to this album, mostly on the bus, waiting at the bus stop, or walking to the bus and it has a few earwigs. Check out these two tracks:
Fall Back - Hollertronix
Thick Jawns - Hollertronix

Flosstradamus... Enough said. Anyone who can mix Twister with Sigur Ros doesn't need a description, their music speaks for itself.
Overnight Star - Flosstradamus

In other news Sheena is playing tonight at the Attic. I might/might not be there tonight but if you get a chance, you should check them out. Their live shows are super fun and it is a benefit show for some dog.
