I quite like this album. It’s in stores tomorrow (16 February) in the UK and on Tuesday in the US. Take a listen to the single I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris:

Joseph Arthur v. MGMT

So iTunes was on Party Shuffle today (as usual) and Joseph Arthur’s Glass Pipe was playing when I noticed it sounded similar to MGMT’s Time to Pretend. It’s got a different feel, but still… Here’s Glass Pipe for you, from And The Thieves Are Gone (2004):

And if you’re not convinced, here’s the MGMT track from 2008:

If you like Kavinsky, you’ll like this Terrestrial Super Receiver remix of a Ladyhawke track. It’s pretty chill.

Today

We jammed for the first time in a really long while. Felt really good. If you didn’t read a few posts down; we’re playing on Saturday evening at SP — come down if you can, or let me know if you want tickets. They’re $12 a pop.

Broken Social Scene — Lovers’ Spit (Redux)

The Boys Noize remix of My Moon My Man has the most annoying vocal track ever.

I paid a visit to CBGB’s two years ago, two months before it shut down. The place was really quiet with a few kids hanging around outside and in the bar; I bought a tshirt and sat around for a while. Then I returned home, enlisted in the army and right after I get out of BMT I read the news that’s pretty much gone, except for the merchandise.

Two years later I’m reading an article in the New York Times about one of those infamous family arguments about who gets the spoils from the dead husband’s estate — absolutely ridiculous, but I guess that’s what money does to people.

Well, I guess I’m feeling part of the disillusionment & disappointment that come with age. But in any case, since I have the right to be selfish and materialistic for a day I’ll post my wishlist here:

Digidesign Mbox 2 audio interface
Yamaha HS80M nearfield monitors
Numark NS7 USB DJ controller
15″ MacBook Pro (the new 13″ Macbooks will do in a pinch)
Pioneer CDJ-800s and matching mixer
Denon AH-1001 or Sennheiser HD280 headphones
Black iPod Classic (or 2nd Gen Nano)
Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5s or Westone UM2s
Sadowsky #4440
2 Aguilar DB115s
Aguilar DB359 (if you can find this I LOVE YOU)
A wardrobe of James Perse, Band of Brothers, AA, Burberry, Paul Smith and Zegna
More Jack Spade bags
Cazal x Dita 902 glasses
Nikon D700 + SB400
Bell & Ross BR03-94

Yeah… that should do for now.
