I just want the world to know that searching "Oh My Gosh" on Google Image Search yields this image*:

What kind of owner couldn't love that face........

*At least it yields it for me.

HEAR HEAR: Röyksopp


Happy Up Here - Röyksopp

Newest song from their latest album, "Junior" and it's so cute/fun/amazing/relaxing.

ICYDK (In case you didn't know): Royksopp did the song "Remind Me" that was used in the Geico caveman commericals. (ie. When the caveman is riding on the flat mover thing in the airport and he sees posters of cavemen and Geico and gets offended by them. The music in the background is all elevatory and like "Remind remind remind me. Everywhere I go...there's always something to remind me.....blah blah blah. It's awesome).

Anyway. The video is great. It has space invaders. And the videography is A+.

FYT: More songs from their new album that are awesome.



New Tunes

And I quote: "It Is Here." And it is Crank-Tastic.



New Bloody Beetroots featuring Steve Aoki! I'm feeling the vid as well.

Hear Hear: 90s Throwback

I'm building up my 90s music collection and happened upon this song!




I love it! It was like the staple "chase the girl after everything got screwed up and prevent her from getting on the airplane" movie theme song! I love it! If I ever have to get chased down by someone, I hope this song is playing....in our heads.....it would be nice if it played for the world to hear but we have to be realistic.

You Know What Really Grinds My Gears: SUNGLASSES

Sunglasses: Can't live with them, can't live without them. Or maybe you CAN live with them if you AREN'T me. Those that know me well know that I'm a magnet for awesome sunglasses. I have like 20 pairs spread between New Orleans and Miami, functional glasses, novelty glasses, etc etc. I love them. I'm saving up money to buy Ray Ban's because sunglasses are like number 2 on my life priority list.

Ray Ban Glasses

I woke up today and it was windy and overcast so I dress appropriately, go to class yada yada. Well I get out of class and OH HAY, the clouds are gone and it's about 100 degrees now (another thing that GRINDS MY GEARS). AWESOME. And to top it off...ALL OF MY SUNGLASSES ARE OUT OF COMMISSION because they hate me and anything that CAN put a scratch in ALL of my sunglasses did...rendering them essentially OPAQUE. There's nothing like walking on white pavement on a sunny day (that's a lie. It's actually pretty similiar to walking in an aluminum foil room with the sun shining brightly in). So I decide....it's time to buy some new sunglasses. And not scratch them to hell this time.

Go to Ross. They've got some lovely pink Playboy brand sunglasses. But I think Playboy is a little to classy for me. Dejected, I head to a mall knowing I'll only be able to admire Ray Ban's from the window of Sunglass Hut because $140 for sunglasses is blasphemous. So I do admire them from the window, leave. Then I stumbled upon one of those sketch booths in the middle of the mall that sold sunglasses!!! 2 for $20 basically. And they had Ray Ban knockoffs! Perfect!

So I buy my new Ray Ban knockoffs. It's like heaven to put them on and NOT see scratches. And even better, the glasses CAME WITH a protective case thing (not a very good one but it's better than nothing...which was what I was doing before). AWESOME. So I throw the glasses, IN THEIR CASE, into my purse. They can't get damaged that way right?

....

OH NO. THE PIECES OF S**T ALREADY HAVE A SCRATCH. I MIGHT HAVE TO KILL SOMEONE. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, IS IT SO HARD TO MAKE SCRATCH PROOF GLASSES?! THAT ARE KNOCK OFF BRAND* I'd think that would just involve making the lens out of glass? I don't have any diamonds with which to scratch glass so it should be fine. JEEZ. I JUST WANT TO SEE CLEARLY. now the rain is gone.

BYE COKE



Another sample of AD GENIUS.

Not to mention how AWESOME the song is. I believe the song was created just for the commercial. But holy wow, I think the producer has a promising career in nightclub DJing. (And it's NOT Benny Benassi. I know for a fact.)

Daft Console

Dinosaur has been MIA recently due to an unfortunate laptop mishap (read: laptops suck and shouldn't be so fragile or expensive). But the temporary fix is for her to blog vicariously through me! Or text messagerly...

So I bring THE DAFT PUNK CONSOLE on behalf of Dinosaur.

BEHOLD. THE DAFT PUNK CONSOLE.

Photobucket

If you guessed the letters on the console match up to your keyboard...you are CORRECT. And when you press whichever letter, it plays a sound bite from Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.

How can you use this?

Well people with Macs can make a musical beat in Garage Band....then somehow (I can't tell you exactly how)...get the daft sounds into your song and make a remix of Harder Better Faster Stronger. Or make a new song with sound bites from Harder Better Faster Stronger.

Or you can quiz your memory and try to replicate the real song as best as possible, making the beat with your mouth or hands or whatever.

Get creative, have fun!

Hear Hear: Don Diablo


New, AMAZING Video! Sparking controversy already.
This is what Don Diablo says about the video: ''I think this video gives a good representation of what goes on in my head when I am asleep, it's like a drug free LSD trip for pros.''

I WISH my dreams were this awesome.

Don Diablo is a DJ from Amsterdam (read: best city ever). This song is awesome. And more importantly.... this is what Don Diablo looks like.

Watchmen

Watchmen Rorschach

The huge hype around Watchmen intrigued me, so I went to see it today. I honestly had no idea what the plot of the movie was other than it was about "super heroes" and I didn't read reviews because I didn't want to be biased or anything. At any rate, I was pleasantly surprised.

I was expecting another Spiderman/Batman/X-Men but Watchmen is TOTALLY different than the hero movies we are used to. It's mature. It has this crazy intense plot. The characters are fantastic (well, 2 of the characters at least). Really, I was blindsided by this movie. Did I mention it's really mature (aka kids can't appreciate it). It was suprisingly gorey/graphic....on the level of Friday the 13th....I had to cover my eyes at parts to prevent upchuck.

Some Highlights:
1. Blue man penis flying all over the place
2. Ginger baby man with mad freckles
3. Fight scene cinematography
4. Pretty nice soundtrack

So, if you have a penchant for those thoughtful kind of movies then I'd suggest seeing it. But don't expect that picture perfect Superman nonsense. This is wayyyyy different.

DIGITAL LOVE

MORE Daft Punk news!!!

Tron movie poster

Daft Punk will be creating the score for Disney's remake of Tron (appropriately titled TR2N).
Translation: NEW DAFT PUNK ALBUM!

The punks have already set up a recording studio for the score. Expect it 2011 (D=), I don't think I can take the wait! It will have been 6 years since their last album in 2011. I wouldn't give a crap about TR2N before, but now it can't NOT be awesome.

-------

TR2N won't be Daft Punk's first time putting their music to a movie. The entire Discovery album (probably my favorite album) has a "visual companion" titled Interstella5555. It's basically a music video movie. It has a plot and characters and character development and everything, it's mad entertaining, and it's set to the WHOLE Discovery album. There's no dialogue or anything, just music and animation. Amazingness.

Daft_Punk_InterStella5555_01

Interstella5555 is the reason I got into Daft Punk in the first place....It came on TV at 2 AM one day and it was love at first sight. Everyone should check out Interstella5555.

Placenta?

AROUND THE WORLD

WORD ON THE SIDEWALK IS, DAFT PUNK WILL BE GOING ON TOUR IN 2010 OR 2011. AKA START SAVING MONEY NOW BECAUSE TICKETS WILL PROBABLY COST MORE THAN A LAMBO.

I've loved them since 2000 and in these past 9 years haven't even HEARD of a Daft Punk concert. If I don't see a show, crap will hit the fan.

This blog is in capslock because I'm very excited by this.
