THE SCENE

Just when I start to get all pissy about electronic music, I see something that restores my faith. Thanks to friend of Cobrapants, Rico Suave for turning me onto "The Scene" a Detroit cable TV show that aired videos and featured local dancers throwing down to tracks that would become legendary. All in all, this shit scores a hundred out of ten in the fashion, dance and music departments. I also almost forgot to mention the obscenely awesome sax solo in the first clip.
Fuck yeah!

I wish I was one of them chicks doing "the hot secretary strut". Too cool.


Here's the Slingshot rework of "You Shook Me All Night Long"

More to come on this, as I'm currently obsessed.

DELTA MARSH: ECO-SEXY

Usually when you think of "earth friendly"...Goddamn hippies come to mind. Not so much, in the world of Delta Marsh. Inspired by artists such as Eno, Laurie Anderson, TVOTR, and Vive La Fete, the Toronto based duo blend the futuristic with the naturalistic, visual suggestion implanted by wistful female vocals and hard edged video. Theremins, tree frogs, beats, buzzing bee basslines and...Nick Cave dolls. Delta Marsh rock.

Check out the Syntonics (more to come on that kickass duo) remix of "Want You Back"
HERE
This is the original version, with video based on the true story of a pretty girl and a dark obsession with Nick Cave.




"Good Times" is a complete 360 in style, it's rather Banksy-esqe..so relevant to these troubled times we live in.
