If there is one thing I love, it's the French. When teamed with disco however, it reaches a whole different level for me. It doesn't even matter what they're saying, all I know is, that it sounds pretty goddamn interesting. And who doesn't want an excuse to sit in front of Google Translate translating "I [...]
Here are a few french white guy attempts at making boogie cuts circa '82-'85. Thanks to our friend Didier from Paris for the source material.

Think you've seen it all? Well, you haven't really seen anything at all until you've walked into a showbar to find Speedo-clad swimmers performing underwater stunts in a giant onstage aquarium as "Sadeness" by Enigma blares from the speakers. As pre-party entertainment goes, it more than lived up to Copa's self-hype as "the only erotic underwater show of its type on the planet!"! But the novelty was kind of fleeting. After several songs spent watching aquamen in action, I started to pray for a drag queen to strut onstage [...]
Yeah, the official cover and tracklist of "LOUD" is now unveiled which confirms that there will be a second part of hers an Em's 'I Love the Way You Lie' as well as I've already said before, collabos with Young Money's brightest shining stars Nicki Minaj (on their remake of Weather Girls' old 'It's Raining Men') & Drake: 1. 'S&M' 2. 'What's My Name' ft. Drake 3. 'Cheers (Drink To That)' 4. 'Fading' 5. 'Only Girl (In The World)' 6. 'California King Bed' 7. 'Man Down' 8. 'Raining Men' ft. [...]
The Vatican recently saw fit to forgive The Beatles for wrongs committed against the Catholic Church. The Beatles were guilty of such crimes as: claiming they were bigger than Jesus, having kooky haircuts, and of course, making the the best pop music the world has ever known. In their musical pursuits, the controversy The Beatles fostered was often was linked to the lyrics of their songs. Maybe Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is a reference to LSD. The fire referred to at the end of Norwegian Wood could be an act of arson. And [...]
I'm slow. Like way slow on getting this out, and I'm 100% POSITIVE that I'm missing some submissions and apologize for neglectfully omitting anyone's. But you shouldn't drive slow when you hear these songs. Especially if you sing 'em with the windows down. So kid[s], what is the... Frankly, I only wanted to post ONE answer to this because, it very well may be the most epic song to scream, music blaring, windows open, whether you're male or female. Hit it... Liz, from [...]
This blows. I left my computer at work tonight, so I can't share the mix tape that I spent twenty painstakingly long minutes trying to compile this morning. I was supposed to post another "Covers! Covers! Covers!" mix, but oh well. Instead, I'm left to type this on Nicci's computer, which I playful call "Sunday Crap Tape Treasure Chest" ever since I started writing this sentence. That said, this week's Sunday Mix Tape Crap Tape probably needs no further introduction. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to [...]
I have many fond memories of the last time I was in Greece. It may have been 12 years ago, but I can still smell the crusty sea salt and cigarettes on my grandfather's denim shirt. I can still feel the dry, hot, heat warm my body as I took a siesta on the cool marble floor of my aunt's apartment, and unfortunately I can still hear the candied disco-pop soundtrack that I lived by that summer, bouncing off the stucco rose-wrapped walls of the home my father knew as a child. At 18, I [...]
Ooh...It's my first go at this...so give the new guy here a little slack...let's take a look at the list... The Weather Girls, "It's Raining Men" I mean really... I'd have to turn in my card if I didn't put this on the list. It's a favorite at many a disco and karaoke bar and hell, it was co-written by Paul Shaffer. Yes, THAT Paul Shaffer. Alphabeat, "10,000 Nights of Thunder" I decided to throw in a metaphorical weather song here so I could [...]
