Glum, Chum::

Sometimes it's good to keep your head down towards the ground and look like you're down and out. But on the other hand, you might discover a bundle of cash wafting in invisible midget twisters, totally $67.00. Now the hard part comes, what should I spend it on?

Five second rule.

Not My Peg-leg::

"There's irony in them hills." What is the difference between a remix and a bootleg? DJs continually give their twists to original songs and suddenly it's a whole new piece of music written out as:

David Guetta - Stay (Le Knight Remix)

(or)

Daft Punk - Aerodynamic (Nicky Romero Bootleg)

Then the question goes, who's music is it now? Club spinners will say, "It's Guetta's, but it's mine too, since I changed it." Recording Labels will say, "It's Guetta's, with your red fingerprints on it." Let's do some definition hunting:

• A remix is a different version of its original counterpart.

• A bootleg is a remix of its original counterpart but without the explicit

permission of the artist.

Part and parcel. Ultimately, remix seems to be a prettier term than bootleg, as pre-owned sounds prettier than used. In conclusion, they're all essentially bootlegs, since 95% of DJs out there clearly do not have permission to remix a song. Yet listeners could care less. Just put on something that sounds good, maybe even different than what I've heard before and my aural pleasures will be satisfied.

Bottled-Up Emotional::

It's girls night out tonight, plus me, at Hollywood's Avalon. Tonight's plan is to say hello to Josh, the Samoan bouncer, he'll mosey us in. I'll let the girls powder their faces as I say hello to Bree, the Brooklyn brunette bartender. I'll have a round of Cadillac margaritas and tequila shots awaiting the girls' arrival. After that, it's free drinks all night from my New York Doll. Then we await the performance of LAZRtag, in addition to Kids at the Bar, and BetaTraxx.

"It's gonna be a good, good night."

Throwback Thursday: Donna Summer

[1975] Donna Summer - Love To Love You Baby (Disco Syndicate's shortened love affair recut) by Disco Syndicate

Nothin wrong with a classic here and there. As a person who's always making electronic music, It feels good to listen to different genres to cleanse my brain. One can only take so many oscillators filters in a day. Donna Summers soothing serenade always does the ears good.

Better Than Wands::

All roads lead to Star Wars. It's possible that Lucas' baby is by far the most alluded, um, thing? - story, movie, piece of art, Americana - name something else. It's flabbergasting to observe society leaning towards entertainment rather than reality.

Where's the U.S. President from? 'I-o-no.'

Where's Darth Vader from? 'Tatooine.'

I suppose everything, in theory, is a form of entertainment, just to fill the void before we get struck by The Lightsaber.

Oopart contributes to this abyss of referential treatment towards "...the dark side." I contribute my nineteen-millionth piece of interesting void-filler (cue balloons release):

Shiny Toy Pun::

Today I feel like a constructive plaything - a toy. I've been used, abused and tossed aside. At least she has finally grown up and has uttered some matter of argument rather than furnish the predictable silent treatment. Some advice from the experienced: when you first meet someone and the first answer they spew out is a lie, you had better about-face and ogle some other beautiful disaster.

Rave Is The New Riot::

Boys Noize Records is featuring this new track by Glaskuppel, naming it Audionite. It's significantly a Boys Noize influential group but with a nudge to the left with the dynamics. As we don't hear as much Boys Noize creations lately, at least it's good to hear those artists that are heavily influenced by the legends of the past.

Huh, War...Good God::

Although I actually enjoy listening to Avicii's original version of Levels, this Clockwork remix likes to kiss the trance side a bit and redeems itself to more clubbers. Not only can you play this track in the main hall but also in the little nook in the back where the don't-enter-my-boxed-area dancers like to get into the zone and perform their beatnik bebop.

Staring Causes Blindness::

This remix is made with half Duck Sauce and half the fat of other remixes out there listed as "must download." Bag Raiders, to start off, have their own significant percentage of taste-good background crisp, a bittersweet reminiscent sensation. Then you get the coating of Van Helden's 90s Euro-house to make it a nutritious bite. Taste it for yourself:

Patience Brings Relief::

Here's something that's come out of the blue that perks my ears: Vitalic - Second Lives. Another something that has perked my ears is answering a random call from an old crush who's interested in meeting up for lunch. It only took her seven years to fulfill my fantasy. But wait, let me bask in my good karma before I realize the true nature of the meeting. Calm, listen:
