CHROMEO BUSINESS CASUAL OUT SEPTEMBER 14th ON ATLANTIC RECORDS

OK. I know it's been awhile and I don't blame you for being mad but the "real" job has me working and the "fake" job is taking a back seat. Until I read this:

CHROMEO RELEASE NEW SINGLE FROM THE FORTHCOMING BUSINESS CASUAL LP
"DON'T TURN THE LIGHTS ON" AVAILABLE AT ALL DIGITAL RETAILERS NOW
BUSINESS CASUAL OUT SEPTEMBER 14th ON ATLANTIC RECORDS

Does it get any more awesome than that? Nah. So I am beyond excited. So much so that I am blasting She's in Control and Fancy Footwork right in a row. Yes. Chromeo!

Spiritualized - Performance of Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space At Radio City Music Hall, July 30th 2010

I first saw Spiritualized at Radio City with a little band called Radiohead. They were on tour for an album called Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space at the same time Radiohead was on tour for OK Computer. I had never heard of them but I went out and bought Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space the very next day. You will have a chance to find out why I did on July 30, 2010. The album will be performed in it's entire awesomeness.
