  1. i never really give a shit about hair in food unless it's at a greek diner cause there's probably more where that came from *goes straight to hades*
  2. Saw Uwe do an HD set last Saturday in Williamsburg. In short he blew me away! Insanely fun show, lots of stuttering beats to move to, and hilarious visuals. He played Strom, Imperialist Pop, Empty and Ich Bin Meine Maschine from the album. He stitched them together with great live AE-like dance madness. After Imperialist Pop he destroyed our ears with about 3 minutes of distorted atomic bomb explosions. One after another. It kept getting louder and louder and funnier and funnier until it didn't. And then he just exploded more and more bombs with the classic Uwe deadpan face. The album stuff he played was so enriched by his visuals. Imperialist pop was these pearlescent word art lyrics flashing around while his bald max headroom like face moved around and stared at us saying STOP..... IMPERIALIST POP. Empty started as its own MTV music video with the artist/title card at the bottom left corner. Except the music video was Uwe in all black on a Berlin street standing motionless and slowly dropping giant handwritten posters with the lyrics. After each verse he would strike an emotionless pose when all the cards were out of his hand. Completely hilarious. I hoped he would play I love U, but sadly he did not. At any rate, this is what modern electronic music performances should aspire to! Had a complete blast. Here are two super short and lame videos that I took. Sadly I was having to much fun to care about taking videos of the good visuals. DISCLAIMER: THESE DO NO DO ANY SORT OF JUSTICE TO HIS SHOW. If you have the chance to see him, please do so!
  3. fuck haven't had a burger in ages at this point 5 guys would taste like the heavens
  4. Michigan is really really good. Never sure how non-Midwesterners feel it tho because understanding Kmart and icy winter farm flatness (read: depression) is something unique to that part of the world. Sufjan captures that very well. Illinois is a wee bit o' too much twee. Age of adz was ok... Three good songs The electronic one is alright. The rest of his stuff is gash and seeing him live was one of the biggest mistakes of all time. So bad, so many dumb hipster bitches.
  5. Not to make things worse or anyyyything... But the Andy stott show was great! Well mostly the Atom TM parts hehe but stott was great as well! Wish I could have seen you there!
  6. that said, this is if team doyobi made a juke record
  7. if this is rephlex then it's exciting that they're releasing something "new" and not just tuss-based acid trax and such. braindance for millienials!!
  8. woah ok so i need check this out then
  9. the fact that people actually like this makes me want to slit my wrists what a extreme reaction edit: just took a quick listen, pretty boring. wrists unslit over here. I completely understand why people would like it. It's pleasant. It's also dull and not even close to novel but that doesn't give me the right to judge others for liking it. I dunno, I find the casual limited listening habits of most people lame but I don't care and certainly don't get angry over it. I would of felt like Vamos as a 19 or 20 year old, but not now. I was needlessly pissy and cynical then. it's not so much the actual music itself, which is shitty but whatever, but it's kinda that covering a disco single from a famous band from an album THAT HASN'T EVEN BEEN RELEASED YET really just drives home the cash/internet buzz grab aspect. "Oh, let's just cover this when the song is really hot in the charts so people will listen to us." that kind of smarmy smug business move is really irritating to me. I'm doubly irritated by limpdick indie covers of dance tracks where they actually remove the most interesting part: the rhythm!! much like that retarded cover of heartbeats. all in the name of "emotional" i guess... I love that, like it's impossible to be emotional and reflective when you're dancing or have any sort of syncopated beat. also i'm 21 so by your rules i'm allowed to be needlessly pissy and cynical so THERE!
  10. the fact that people actually like this makes me want to slit my wrists
  11. thatd be great, boc have ZERO of kw's deadpan german humor so won't be as charming but yeah
  12. A super hot girl I've be flirting with for weeks showed next to zero interest in me at a party and instead talked to a strong attractive Argentinian of nazi descent. I was very upset and being a whiny bitch and then felt ungrateful and unfaithful that this got my dander up when I already have a super hot gf. Then I felt even worse and went home and felt like shit. Yay!!!
  13. view from below and above. or as I like to call it: PIZZA LOVER AND IDM WANKER
