So apparently Four Tet are/is releasing a song next month titled, "The Track I've Been Playing That People Keep Asking About and That Joy Used in His RA Mix and Daphni Played on Boiler Room."

Me too!

I stole el donko from El Mel.

The Donko Doco.

Hip hop beefs really aren't what they used to be.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Au contraire...

Spoiler

Still, credit where it's due. Very well played.

Then be very suspicious of the one girl who has a thing for the donko onesie.

Spoiler

It'll end in tears.

Someone please Photoshop Cobbz in his donkey suit into this and change the title to Donko Doco.

 

[joyfulgirl]

This is getting good.

This thread, I swear. You guys are insane. And I mean that in the most loving way possible .

I listened to it last week. There were a couple tracks I dug, but when that "AND IT FEELS LIKE I AM somethingsomething TO LOVE YOUUUUUUUUU!" I laughed, because every time I heard that song in whatever commercial it is, I'd wonder who it was. And here it was!

Not because I liked the song at all, but because I wanted to know who this was being so ubiquitous in commercials.

In the end I decided I didn't like enough songs to buy it. Although in all honesty, I might have been swayed by my dislike of that song.

The first time I saw the video for that song I had to do a double take because that is NOT what I expected Alex Clare to look like. I kept picturing some scrawny kid in his 20s who's kind of a DJ/raver type or something. Not a guy who looks like he spends his days down at his local pub.

That song did seem to be everywhere for a while, yeah. But eh. I don't mind it.

That's great.

 

[LemonMelon]

Proper.

 

[u2popmofo]

I think it's kinda funny, I think it's kinda sad
The dreams in which Cobbler's dying are the best I've ever had

 

[corianderstem]

Gold, Jerry. GOLD!

 

[LemonMelon]

I think it's kinda funny, I think it's kinda sad
The dreams in which Cobbler's dying are the best I've ever had

When people dress in donkey onesies
It's a very very mad world

I found a video of the festival Cobber's been talking about

I knew from the title alone that this would be good.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Brilliant, you guys.

2 things:

1) This is perfect in context

2) But even in a vacuum, this is fucking great. I love Japan so much and the sad truth is that I could have probably sat there and watched those motherfuckers dance for an hour.

Honestly, make the beat a bit more electro, add a few trees, and that's not far off.

I just spent 15 minutes trying to figure out what the hell the significance of that dance is.

Somehow knowing Japanese makes trying to understand bizarre Japanese videos like this even worse.

This entire thread is winning the Internetz today. Way to work as a team, everybody.

 

[u2popmofo]

How have I not seen this before?

The Kitten Covers

 

[Imperor]

May have to use that for the venue tomorrow.

Guys, pass on silly music shit like that. It makes me look like I have some semblance of a clue what I'm doing.

 

[corianderstem]

I listened to that iamamiwhoami album today. I'm sorry I missed that when it first came out - I liked it quite a bit.

Russians on youtube are like that, too. The more I understand, the less makes sense.

I just put the Out Of Control forum on ignore, and now my mind is blown every time I click on "New Posts."

I feel like Elaine driving her car in that episode where Kramer painted over the lines in the highway to make the extra-wide lanes.

This is so luxurious.

 

[cobl04]

I did that like three years ago. I've got most of the forums and game threads in here and EYKIW blocked. It's glorious.

 

[corianderstem]

I bought a Wild Nothings CD and I'm listening to it now.

I am also drinking a beer, and I had a little piece of cheese.
