Death before Disco

I just wanted to take the time and vent for a second by posting this video.  A) The first song in this video is my theme song when Im heading into work.  B) These guys can really rip it.  C) If it wasn't for silly and outdated breakdancing rules I would be there.  Apparently, you are automatically disqualified from competition if you use any alcoholic beverage as a dancing prop.  Rumor has it, such rules don't exist in Poland, but obviously I don't live there any more.



Glad we got that over with.  I'm not too thrilled with my selections this week, but there were still a number of gems out there.  My ears are still ringing from the Eminem concert, party bus tour, and Dj Parmon killing it at Ohara's birthday so I don't know how much longer I am going to be able to hear.  Things got mad real at around the 1:30 AM mark on Friday night when a rap video broke out.  Oh and thanks to everyone who egged me on for trying to get up on the table that was supported by one beam.



M.I.A & Sebastien Tellier - XR Kilo (Ben Danner Mix) 

50% Intz Intz + 50% Dut Dut Dut +  M.I.A vocals x added value =  4.   You can call me the professor from now on.

8 Bit - Hip Hop Medley 

Bet you can't guess all of the hip hop songs in one try.

Chemical Brothers - Swoon (Boys Noize Mix) 

My appreciation for Electronic music began when I first heard the Chemical Brothers in my friends sisters friends car driving home from the local fireworks show on the 4th.  Great memories.  I was entering my freshmen year and it was the first time I got drunk off of 4 beers of top shelf Budweiser served at room temperature.  My mom also appreciated that great night considering I was yacking my brains out the entire night.  "It was the chicken mom, I swear!" As you can see I was clever enough to make up that genius lie.  She totally bought it.....I was grounded for the rest of the summer.

Sleigh Bells - Tell 'Em

This song was resurfaced to me by my friend Pat.  There is a lot of bass in here so be careful.  When I hear this I can't help but picture Sylvester Stabroni playing as Rambo on steroids, HGH, Horse Tranquilizers and that green shit the Hulk injected himself with (not really sure if it was actually green or not).  Bruce Banner get back in your cage.

Thomas Radman - Justice vs. Wolfgang Gartner

First time I heard Justice was at the end of an STS9 concert about 3 years ago.  Ever since then it has all been downhill for me.  Warning:  If you are prone to seizures make sure you bite down on a Popsicle stick or have someone strap you down to your seat with duct tape or something.  Just kidding, but seriously.

Dolly Parton vs. Jay-z - Jolene is Mine (KMT Mix)
Words can't describe how I feel about this mash-up.











Songs like this make me extremely nervous.  Because they make me bend my one motto that I live by ever since my mom used to make me listen to ABBA when I was 7.  Which is Death before Disco.  I hate to say I told you so, but I saw this Disco resurgence movement about 3 months ago.  And now I find myself writing about it.  P.S - this song is fantastic.



What's better than Rihanna?  Nothing.  What's better than David Guetta?  Dr. Dre, Chemical Brothers, Justice, Pancakes, chap stick, squirrels etc. etc.  But if you put the two together you get a pretty decent track.
