What do you get when you mix the new school party boys with a old school club banger? You get "Shots" which is the song from LMFAO and Lil Jon . The song has been out for a good minute but the video was just released this month. The video is funny as hell and should always be used to get the party started for the night. They even got alcohol drink recipes sprinkled throughout the video so you can DIY! Now i'm not promoting the consumption of non stop shots at the club but hey...have some [...]
Aloha will release Home Acres , their new full length on March 9, 2010 . It follows the acoustic EP, Light Works from 2007 and was recorded by T.J. Lipple and Nick Anderson
POLYVINYL RELEASING ALOHA HOME ACRES ON MARCH 9, 2010 "Like a computer geek with a romantic streak, Ohio's Aloha straddle the line between trad songcraft and proggy virtuosity." - Entertainment Weekly "It's prog without pretense, pop with a brain; every perfectly recorded note is necessary in order to propel itself into the next, leaving it impossible to focus on any particular instrument or voice without being immediately and happily drawn to another." - Under The Radar "The band sounds more confident than ever, and every arrangement is stripped to the bones." - Pitchfork [...]

![[Local Love] WHO IS DIARRHEA PLANET?!?!](http://cache.elbo.ws/posts/2130989_lg.jpg)
Not very much is known about this local group that seems to have just appeared in the spotlight out of nowhere. People have their panties quite bunched up about their SUPER CRAZZZZY NAME which makes me think a lot of them missed out on 3rd grade. Their shows live up to whatever pre-conceived notions you could come up with about whether you like them or not. Take the DP challenge and go see them live wherever they decided to play out next. After listening to their Debut E.P. "Aloha!" a couple times, It's become pretty clear [...]
A band by the name of Diarrhea Planet played Wednesday night at The End. While I was personally unable to attend, Intern Lance was present, and he came back with three things: a positive report, ...

So many great choices for Thursday. You could start at Toad for the early part of the night and see uke master Melvern Taylor. Afterwards there are many venues that have great line-ups. Gordon Gano, yup the guy from the Violent Femmes, and his his new band is at the Middle East with Sidewalk Driver and Mascara. Also on Thursday there's the Lovewhip cd release at Church or go to TTs for John Powhida International Airport, Logan 5 and the Runners, Weisstronauts and Mercy James (great local line-up!). On Friday, I'll Be at Precinct to see My Own Worst Enemy, [...]

(Editor's note: today's interview comes to us with permission from Cleveland Bachelor , where the Q&A was originally posted. Yesterday was one of those work days that you dread, meeting after meeting after meeting. From the moment I got to work until nearly 4 PM, I was shuffling from one room to another, trading brain cells for increased self-loathing every additional minute. Mere seconds after finally sitting down in my chair back in my dank big boy office, the alarm on my phone went off. I looked at it, wondering what it was I was reminding myself [...]

Attention fellow House heads: Gather 'round and freshen up with something very special from Harvard Bass . If you're even the slightest bit involved with the sound resonating from camps such as Institubes / Sound Pellegrino , or Fool's Gold (and trust, the list doesn't end there) there's no possible way you've missed your dose of Harvard Bass - His tracks are being dropped EVERYWHERE. His aesthetic is on a very distinct house tip. Refreshing, minimal, and injected with just enough 'jack' to get you moving every single time. If you [...]
Another Halloween has come and gone (sigh) and this year we definitely threw our most epic party to date. I will let the three clips below do the talking for me on this post. The first two are differing shots of the Bloody Beetroot's intro. One is filmed from the crowd, the other is filmed from the stage in supercalafragalistic high definition. I think these two together give the proper perspective. The last vid is done by our friends at 4mtl and is a compilation vid of the entire night. I thought they did a great [...]

SAINTWOODS HEADS BACK TO THE S.A.T. FOR MORE TERROR AND MAYHEM!! On FRIDAY THE 13TH Philly's hardest partyrockers since Diplo are bringing their legendary set to Montreal. Take your multivitamins, eat a bunch of ColdFX and get your rest after the Beetroots... You do not want a little H1N1 stopping you from missing the sluttiest, hardest, dirtiest jam of November. And of course once again our favourite venue will be transformed into an indoor carnival of sin and debauchery. Hold onto your hats, clothes and girfriends this is going to be one party you might not make it [...]

NT89's tracks have already been supported and played by the likes of Tiga, Erol Alkan, The Bloody Beetroots, Shinichi Osawa, Jaymo & Andy George and us (if that counts?) to name a few, and released several highly esteemed remixes and original tracks. His popular remixes of ZZT "The Worm", and Tiga's "Mind Dimension" killed dancefloors the world over and captured the attention of Tiga who decided to put the Mind Dimension remix on his new album "Ciao!" (Japanese edition). NT89 is also Bloody Beetroots studio assistant and recently released the official remix for Turbo recordings Noob [...]

I first heard of renaissance man through a sharkslayer remix of their song spraycan, which is amazing. The [...]
DOWNLOAD: Cale Parks - One at a Time (MP3) photos by Andrew Frisciano , words by Benjamin Lozovsky On Saturday October 24, a night full of swirling electronica, booze-soaked theatrics, and plenty of limey-infused glamour came together at the Topman CMJ Party at Roots Studios . The British urban fashion superstore hosted an RSVP only show at the massive studio space in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which included performances by The Almighty Defenders , Neon Indian , and [...]
