We'd like to introduce Hanger Bar Thursdays

Which is our new pop music night. At Hanger Bar. On every other Thursday. With Keehnan and Evan. And it's tonight.

WHAT WILL BE PLAYED:
Kylie
Hercules and Love Affair
Sophie Ellis-Bextor
Roisin Murphy
Hot Chip

WHAT WILL NOT BE PLAYED:
Kanye West.

Hanger bar is at 213 E. 3rd Street (@ Avenue B) on New York's Lower East Side. We trust we will see you there.

Like, two years after the fact...

...Late of the Pier have finally gotten around to releasing a video for their current Best Song Ever™*, "Space and the Woods", and not to be all "we were there" or anything, but we saw them over a year ago and have been telling people to PLAY THIS SONG drunkenly in clubs since before them. We hope they become big (and they have time, since the median age of the band is still approximately 4).

We feel old.

:(

Here's the video. There is a half-naked redhead teenage boy at 0:20--do with that information what you will.



Because we love you so much, we are posting HERE AND NOW the brilliant c90s remix of "Space and the Woods". Yousendit.com or zShare.net: YOUR CHOICE.

*You thought we forgot about those, didn't you?

WHY

R.I.P. Audio.Out.

:(

Could someone please send a copy of SingStar to the usual address

Thanks.

And heaven and angels sing

O hai, Jordin Sparks.



It kind of pains us to write this below that photo of Jordin looking all snappy and cute, but it must be said: her music is really bad. We're glad she won Idol and all, not that we watched that season because it was horrible, but good for her. But like all Idol winners post graduation (except for our dear beloved K. Clark), her debut album is the pits. Except for, of course, the interplanetary amazingness that is "No Air". Say it with us:

"No Air" is amazing.

Again.

"No Air" is amazing.

AGAIN.

"NO AIR" IS AMAZING!

Now we have one more reason to rejoice: someone's finally done a remix that we might be able to play to other human beings without inciting a lynch mob (we DJ'd the original--and epicly amazing--"No Air" at one of our parties and the entire bar turned into one big stink eye. To quote the bartender: "I just threw up in my mouth a little.") Obviously this is not a testament to our impeccable taste in pop music but a problem with our society at large.

Anyway the remix is by Doug Grayson and is called the "Cruel Intentions" remix (LOL ETC):

Ok, it's probably not as good as it could have been but until Stuart Price or Alan Braxe gets on that shit this is as good as its going to get. So quit your whining.

Lolpost

WANT.

EPIC FAIL.

The Annie video was deleted from YouTube but now it's back

...for a limited time only. :(

We're not really that into the microphone in the new Annie video

The new Annie video is really good, it's called "I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me" and it's about women viciously hating each other (kind of like all of En Vogue or something) and that's all fun and games, but there's something we'd like to point out: Annie's microphone is shit and she knows it.



She's pissed.

Next to music and hair, microphone selection is one of the most important tasks a popstar has to undertake, and sometimes, as above, things tend to go horribly awry. Say what you will about the international mega-fiasco that was "2 Hearts", at least it had this:



Now THAT'S a mic.

It's obvious that they tried to rectify their error with a quick mic change near the end of the video:



...but the damage had already been done. Shame.

Video: 100%
Microphone: 0%
