Ha ha. I'm only (half) kidding with that post title, I really like these tracks, they are dope. Highly listenable, highly dancable, highly bloggable.

New MSTRKRFT - Bounce & VUVUVU
.jpg)
Man! I heard this track last month when MSTRKRFT played at Rich's, but at the time I didn't think nothing of it. To me it was just another assorted track placed into the mix that night. Then today, to my surprise, I check the blog RCRD LBL and learn that its a new track from MSTRKRFT featuring N.O.R.E. and Isis (Isis is half of the group Thunderheist, definitely check them out if you have the time) that's probably gonna be on their new album. Badass! Download now so you can be the first with this track (ie. coolest kid at school).
Shit, I don't know if I heard this track or not. The track really doesn't stand out in a mix much but I would download anyway. You know, so you can say, "Oh yeah, VUVUVU, I heard that track three months ago. Where have you been, Turkmenistan?!" Then watch as they scamper off, crying, holding their head in their hands.

Quick Hits from My SXSW Weekend
Digitalism is good in concert when the crowd stays off the stage and on the floor dancing. There wasn’t much dancing going on Saturday though, since it was bright and hot outside of Stubbs (people don’t dance in the light out of the rightful fear of ridicule). Digitalism’s Austin performance almost made me forget about the crowd surfing 18yr olds that ruined their Wednesday night show in Houston.
Chromeo is about 34 better live than in studio. Dave 1 has great stage presence and crowd interaction that made for a fun show and extra points to P-Thugg for the wardrobe change from a streetwear version of a male NY Knicks cheerleader to a two-piece African dashiki that put my affirmations of Black pride to shame. Chromeo hit all their best songs during the show, plus squeezed in the Journey song Any Way You Want It which, based on the number of people singing along in the crowd, must be mandatory learning for every White child in America.
With a light show on stage that resembled Lite-Brite on cocaine, the performance from Simian Mobile Disco was able to be boring and cause epileptic seizures all at the same time. I literally saw a dude on the ground shaking and frothing at the mouth (not really). I’ll give them some slack though, by that time I was operating on only 2-3 hours of sleep in 24 hours, two cans of Red Bull and pure sexiness alone.
The MSTRFRFT concert in Houston on Friday was not a performance, it was a DJ set (they only “performed” about 4 songs off The Looks). The set became hype after 2 though after all of Rich’s regular spiky haired, overly tanned and steroid injected patrons left for the night, leaving us MSTRKRFT fans room to enjoy an almost hour-long encore. Not enough room however, as I was still elbowed in the eye by a reveler performing a mixture of the electro fist pump and the Point to the Lord.
