dance the schwefelgelb

Schwefelgelb have obviously been inspired by German new wave. Although they say that they have not heard about DAF when they started the band, I suppose their parents listened to their records 24/7 when they were toddlers. As influences they name bands like electro pop pioneers Grauzone and Adult. from Detroit.


This is their new video for Stein auf Stein! I highly recommend to go and see them live on friday @ Magnet!

the purpose of blogs

Since I am writing an assignment on blogs at the moment, I read all those analyses about what motivates people to have a blog. Basically the purpose of blogs is to create an alternate virtual personality by positive selection of character in order to compensate for the lack of self confidence/ what a douche you actually are.

This could be the brain behind Hipster Runoff (... see the Nintendo?)



I Personally am 100% real and as cool as the music I post on my blog!

Chad VanGaalen's music is amazing and so is his art. The only thing I don't like about him is that he does not play in Germany when he comes to Europe in November...








Chad VanGaalen - TMNT Mask (mp3)

After three long years a new Antony & The Johnsons record is coming. Another World EP will be out in October.








Antony & The Johnsons - Shake That Devil (mp3)

And last but not least some dance music. I heard this new Lo-Fi-Fnk tune on Shir Khan's radioshow today. It will be on the next Kitsune Compilation.







Lo-Fi-Fnk - Want U (mp3)

schizophrenic taste in music...


People shouldn't get too personal in blogs. But now I am gonna tell you about a mental disorder I suffer from. I have a schizophrenic taste in music.

Y'know, sometimes I wanna ride Tippin' down, sittin' crooked on my chrome. Bookin' my phone, tryin' to find a chick I wanna bone...








Joe Budden X DJ Benzi - Classic (The Kickdrums Remix) (mp3)

... and sometimes I want to ride the bike with my eyes closed and arms spread like in a stupid Hollywood rom com...








Damien Jurado - Go First (mp3)

muaahahahaha!

I am sure y'all have seen this video of M.I.A.'s pal African Boy on discobelle today....


At this point I think I have to officially confess that I personally find Lil' Wayne a little tiny bit creepy... although he must be pretty succesful with the ladies, I mean not only is he fucking filthy rich, but he also is that kind of guy that takes care about his looks...

"I don't do too many (drugs). I just smoke weed and drink. But I'll never f**k with no more coke. It's not about the bad high; it's just about the acne: Cocaine makes your face break out. I'm a pretty boy."

And - as if anyone really gives a flying fuck about my opinion - the best A Milli Version to-date still is this one by Young Pulse, Killadaz & the TTC guys...

Today the secretiveness around the location for the oncoming A Trak & Boys Noize gig in Berlin finally ended, so I will finally be able to go to sleep again...

bunte streusel radio&fernseh DJ Set

"Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."

In my opininon music is like a big box of coloured sprinkles. For his newest DJ Set radio&fernseh once again combined a great variety of the finest sprinkles he could find to one unique, colourful and tasty mix.

Farewell Tiny Whales / Welcome Passion Pit

A few years ago a a friend of mine who was living in the States brought her boyfriend when she came to visit me in Berlin. He was from Boston, played drums in a band and was one of the nicest guys I have ever met. He showed me some stuff he and his band Tiny Whales were playing and I was a fan right away.







Tiny Whales - Same Shoes (mp3) (sorry about the bad quality)







Tiny Shoes - The Understudy (mp3)
I hope you don't like these last songs too much... because when I checked their Myspace again yesterday I noticed that they split up some months ago. Too bad! Fortunately you can still buy their old EP here.


However, in their friendslist I found this other great band called Passion Pit. They are already famous among bloggers and I am sure they gonna be big big big real soon!







Passion Pit - Sleepyhead (mp3)







Passion Pit - Better Things (mp3)







Passion Pit - I've got Your Number (mp3)
Their Album Chunk Of Chains will be out in the U.S. September 16th on Frenchkiss Records.
