Textually Frustrating::


To lure listeners to your creations, it's good to have an interesting intro because that's the first element of any track the ear will hear. With electronic music over-saturating the media, it's difficult to be creative. Everything seems to have been done before. And software is cheap to attain and simple to master. That's why we use our imaginative minds, our ambitious wits and our hard working efforts to create something that will at least sound ear-pleasing, if not unique and, a rare word that's used today, new.

Like, Uh, Um, Hmm::


When we hear something like Le Castle Vania's track, The Light, we usually associate images of colored spotlights that dance to the beat, a mob of trendsetters moving to the music's cues, beautiful girls making rounds collecting drinks from amateur fellows. Hmm. Very closed minded. We should broaden our imaginations to associate more images to such music. Maybe process zebra-striped and/or leopard-printed flags waving in the wind. How about a block of concrete that partially sits atop ketchup packets. Or maybe, the hottest girl in North America, who has hands for feet, and feet for hands. Werd!

The Layers, The Layers::


A block of Betatraxx. Ready for round two. Betatraxx reconfigures We Are Your Friends, which Justice reconfigures Simian's Never Be Alone. A dream within a dream...I mean, a remix within a remix. Cue suspenseful music here:

Paft Dunk::

Fun times listening to the plethora of Daft Punk remixes over the years. I'm currently into Betatraxx's recent rendition. The work is never over.

We Will Rick You::

From Justice's latest album, Audio, Video, Disco, Rick Rubin has decided to stick his hands on On'N'On and remix it around'N'around. I'm still liking the original, but this one has it's pleasant vibes. What will he ruin next?

We Three Kings::

We have three dubstep luminaries who have produced a sub-woofer-explosive track, called Right On Time. Which part of the track did each producer contribute? Tonight's homework: Listen to the three producers' creative works from the past and then compare to this track.

Falling Up::

Presenting Felix Da Housecat's new club mix to initiate the beginning of the end of the world. Or at least the beginning of another decade of end-of-the-world suspense. When will the next world-ending date be announced? Eh, who cares, enjoy today!!!

Mass On Saturday Nite::

Allow patrons to enter the facility in a calm and timely fashion. Point finger and force a smile onto each patron who fails to produce a positive facial reaction to current event. Assist ignorant patrons who fail to move in a flailing motion during the period of noise, henceforth called, "MUSIC." If patrons become rowdy, stand aside and wait until the chaos subsides. When patrons have reached low levels of energy and the Music has concluded, direct the patrons in an unpolite, forceful manner towards the nearest exits. If necessary, cattle prods are located below the fire extinguisher and fire hose port.

Early Bird Special::

You enter the club early, let us say 9:30 pm. Why? Because you can't stand waiting in your hotel room doing nothing. You arrive. Guestlist? There's the name. Cool beans. Inside you go, escorted by Baby Mama wearing the fashionable pink-and-white lingerie ensemble. She sits you down, and asks where your crew is located. You tell her it's only a party for two, if she sits with you and does a shot of the Goose, otherwise you're flying Han Solo. You look around, a scattered select of early birds pecking around the aisles and watering hole. In the air is a slight haze of the pre-mature fog machine mist and in the speakers blow the sounds of techno by the DJ Intro. What's he playing? Hmm. Probably this one...Why so early?

Never Mind Should B1 Word::

You teenagers are out of control. Everything has to be about sex. Sex! Sex! Sex! Girls dress in their barely-theres. Guys blast their filthy mouths. Nothing but simulated sex on that dance floor and drinking sexually-monikered beverages. Then the DJ shoves a risqué track to enhance the hormones to encourage such outrageous behavior. What do you have to say for yourselves?

Two words:

A Foam Decision::

There's a select few at the beach who have become poor sports who bring toilet paper to parties. How dare they ask you to turn down the music, that's coming from your iPod boom box. It's a public area, just like the public area at the mall or at a tail-gait party in the stadium parking lot (technically that's private property, but it's a populated area! And there's music!). It's not even ear-drum-shattering loud either. I'm sorry your ignorance and impatience of culture has led you to the Dark Side. I pity you, Worm. But continue the complaining, because there's more to come...Insert sinister guffaw here.

Press Start To Begin::

Today goes down in history as the day I heard eleven random people, throughout the day, in different locations, singing and/or humming the catchy Martin Solveig hit, Hello (featuring Dragonette). Factors to creating a catchy tune: simplicity, hook, repetition, familiarity, repeated air play. If you can create something catchy, you just figured out the up-down-left-right-A-start code to jump to the higher levels in the Industry. Boing!

8:15 P.M. Sharp::

It's January, so the Sharp Winter Formal is here. This Saturday, come join us for our seasonal knife party at Jimmy Sans' estate in West Hollywood. Be sure to dress in your black-n-white best and bring along your finest knives for the evening's knife exhibit and contest.

Serenity Now::

Look into the F.O.O.L and you'll see reflections of the dilated eyeballs of Owl Vision's remix of Berserkergang. From my knowledge, the Berserkers were warriors who rallied themselves into an outlandish rage, right before a battle. Makes you think about those mosh pit trendsetters at the concerts. Or, can you think of anyone you might know that goes berserk?

'Tis H.G. Wells Done::

Holy Ghost, Batman, it's not over, yet. The Joker is still on our tail and we've got to get to the DFA Records building before the timer sets off and oh, crap and a half, it's not poor Maggie Gyllenhaal. We've saved Two-face-To-Be.
