New from the DFA...

oh shit was just banging "Me No Pop I" yesterday

Me No Pop I is great

I think I've heard a Prins Thomas Diskomiks of 4533 Part 2 (the Someone Great instrumental)

not strictly DFA, but did anyone notice that rong have put out a new COATI MUNDI single??

waaaau

ok it is pretty awesome

where does one hear new Coati Mundi? I'm waiting for Kid Creole to get off the zoot suit swing revival circuit and do some hip shit again.

he's been wearing zoot suits for three and a half decades now, wtf

coatimundi sound clips here

forthcoming album project!

(!)

Coati Mundi single is on eMusic - it's not one of the RONG/DFA splits... it seems to be a split with Stones Throw or something like that.

sounds great! Anyone know who produced it?

riley reinhold remix? now that's a surprise.
(also, did everyone have to have a P or an R in their name to get commissioned for that, and if so, how did Trus'Me get off?)

i but coati off of itunes

it's really catchy, been stuck in my head for 24 hrs

Xpost: ha, wouldn't have noticed that.

You've really got to love DFA for putting together a roster like that for a remix project. Am looking forward.

loz at the holy ghost video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB30ZXGdenw

maybe if arthur baker showed up at studio b more often it wouldnt have closed

IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

THAT'S MY FAVORITE PART

KEEPS ME UNDER THE GUN

The Holy Ghost remix of Curses (or to be proper i guess the Holy Ghost! remix of Curses!, hot exclamation point on exclamation point action) is one of my favorite DFA-related things in ages.

i would KICK IT SO HARD with all this dfa ppl

i have such a crush on the whang

she's mine!

you stay away from her

i love that like the whang's life is like making pizza, dancing, AND SINGING ON FUCKING "HAPPY HOUSE"

best part of that video is when her fam looks at her like "wtf is wrong with you girl?"

u guys have seen the original right?

okay lol

i've always loved that new order vid. i take back what i said about the holy ghost song. they won me over by redoing that video

wish baker would have given them a usb stick w/RAER mp3 on it

i guess murphy was gonna "play" arthur baker until the holy ghost guys ran into him at a pub and told him about the video and how james murphy was going to be him and he was basically like "nope, ill play myself"

hahahah what a great homage

You making that up max? I'm at work and so I haven't watched the Holy Ghost video.

matt2 i would NEVER make anything up, especially not on this board

N.M.: We were playing this really bad DJ set in London... well, actually it was okay... but there was this one girl who wasn't very cute or anything, but she was just, like, dancing by herself, and Alex and I said, Man, we should make a video with that―a girl dancing by herself. And then we were like, Oh, like the New Order video! That's what makes it cool―there's this awesome girl just dancing by herself! Alex just put our song to the video and we thought it'd be so easy to remake.

The last thing was that James [Murphy] was going to play Arthur Baker, and... well, we actually kind of know him and we ran into him at a bar and told him about the video. He asked who was going to play him, and we were like, James! "No, man," he said. "I want to play myself." I kind of turned to James and was like, Is that cool? He was like, You can't really say "no" to Arthur Baker... (shrugs).

Excellent story.

i have such a crush on the whang

lol when I saw juan maclean play in london a few months back, me and my friend spent the entire gig professing our love for nancy whang. after the gig our other friend, a girl, was tiring of this and with nancy and the others hanging around the venue she went up to her and purposely made us sound like utter freaks, eg "my two friends are your biggest fans for years, and have posters of you all over their walls, they have been to every gig you've ever played in england, but they're too scared to say hello, would you say hello to them? they're v shy"

a visibly weirded out nancy whang came over and said hi shortly afterwards, it was the most stilted conversation of my life.

hahaha

Was lukewarm on that Holy Ghost track too but the video redeems it.Those guys do really good DJ sets, too.

the cotai mundi single mentioned above is ace.

haha ronan. she obviously didn't know with whom she was dealing else she would've been the shy one ;)

Had I heard that Holy Ghost song on it's own I would have forgotten about it before it even got to the chorus, but now I'm singing it in shower, all because of seeing that video first.

that automato flyer on nancy's bedroom door gets me every time

wish baker would have given them a usb stick w/RAER mp3 on it

should have been Murphy delivering it to Baker in the DJ booth :(

i'm really feeling about half of the songs from the new YACHT album

the cotai mundi single mentioned above is ace.

fully. so into it

oh, i'd seen that holy ghost! video on another blog a couple weeks ago and dnr that was nancy whang and thought it was just pieced together from some Downtown 81 type thing

have enjoyed their remixes, they have an album coming?

Supposedly. And one of the tracks has lead vocals from whatsisface from the Doobie Brothers.
