Looper - Impossible Things 7"

I just got this 7 inch on ebay. Looper is Stuart David of Belle & Sebastian. I saw them 10 years ago at Tramps with Khan. I just recently found the ticket stub. I remember being super into Khan my freshman year of college. What ever happened to that guy?

Final Fantasy - Many Lives 7"

I previously mentioned that I used to really hate Final Fantasy. Many Lives isn't my favorite track on He Poos Clouds but it's still pretty solid. The B side for this one is The Miner Becomes Forgetful, which I think is better. I'm going to see him with Grizzly Bear and the Brooklyn Philharmonic this weekend...very excited.

Video Thursday

I saw these guys a couple months ago at glasslands and they weren't that great live. not terrible but the vocals didn't really hold up. It was sold out and I lied and got my friend Sarah in for free. Then I had to convince a bartender that my friend was sober enough to hang and then fell in love.



This video, like most of Bjork's videos, is amazing. I've been full of wanderlust lately so it's fitting.

DJ Aristocat

I have two 12"s by DJ Aristocat and the other one is boatloads better. I can't find it though so until then, this will have to do. There are three tracks on the record (with two added instrumentals that I didn't bother to rip.) The first track is a mix of DMX's Disco Inferno with the Cure's Close to Me. The second track is Chris Isaac's Wicked Game with some song I don't know. The third track is The Nerd Anthem.

Video Thursday

I love this video. It's directed by Miranda July and it's simple but great. "Do you think I'm an animal? Am I not?"



I love videos where people dance on buses or trains. There have been many times when I was listening to Pizzicato 5 on the subway and half expected everyone to bust out in choreographed dance moves. This is probably one of my favorite songs of all time plus Cibo Matto are in the video. Also as a bonus, here is a remix of Ladyfingers by DJ Wally.



This video is a classic. I used to have an awesome Sonic Youth t shirt of two teenagers slow dancing but I lost it many years ago.

Hazel/Ovarian Trolley 7"

I bought this 7" at City Lights Records when I was visiting Penn State. I first heard Hazel on Beavis and Butthead when they made fun of their video Comet. The B side is by Ovarian Trolley. I really know nothing about them but the song is pretty good.

The Electro Project 12"

I'm not really sure where I got this 12" from. I think my brother bought it for me in London. The A side contains the uptown and downtown versions of Yam Who?s remix of Genius of Love. The B side is Si Begg's Al Naafiysh. Both are great.

The original is of course by the Tom Tom Club and the video is very cartoony.
