New Years Eve – The Walkmen

And Modeselektor feat. Thom Yorke “The White Flash” from the Happy Birthday! LP. Hauntingly beautiful, I am really, truly, IN LOVE with this song right now, its just gorgeous. Going into 2008, having Thom reminding me “you have all the time in the world” is a great thought for the New Year, and contextually fitting all around!

The White Flash – Modeselektor feat. Thom Yorke

White is associated with light, goodness, and innocence. It is considered to be the color of perfection. As opposed to black, white usually has a positive connotation. White can represent a successful beginning. In heraldry, white depicts faith and purity. Flash - a sudden intense burst of radiant energy, a sudden brilliant understanding, or intuition.

Have fun tonight, where ever you may be, stay safe, and thanks to all for a great 2007!

Winter Mixtape, originally uploaded by Trash Menagerie.

Above is the view from my parents window, below is an email I just received from Philip Sherburne . . all around awesome person/DJ/journalist/tastemaker, extraordinare! : ) Thanks Philip, however did you know?!?!

“A few nights ago i put together a mix of sorts — this one’s not at all a “DJ mix,” far more like the mixtapes i used to make as a teenager or young 20-something with, like, time on my hands, and passion. technically nothing fancy — laid out in ableton to facilitate the blends, with a tad of delay or reverb added here or there. mainly it’s just about the tracklist, which is decidedly in a mopey mid-winter mood. if that’s your thing, download and enjoy.”

“Also, before I forget, Al Usher (Ewan Pearson’s partner in partial arts) included a new track of mine in a recent mix of his, about which i’m still pretty floored. his mix is genius — lots of slow disco, cosmic weirdness, percoset soul and the like. i’d recommend it highly even without my somehow stumbling into the tracklisting. funny, i’ve occasionally been skeptical about the nu-disco movement but as i’m increasingly sick of cookie-cutter house & techno, some of this stuff is sounding a lot better to me. (i especially dig the slow tempos… 110bpm is the new black.) you can get Al’s mix here:”

When our fellow bloggers, SYNTHETICROCKS, asked us to be a part of their first anniversary party, we were happy to support! Created in October of 2006, out of an addiction to other blogs, Isreal, (a.k.a. DJ nOn), and his cousin, Diego (a.k.a. Diktivek), have been focused on getting their music blog out there, and now, their first event!! Seems Mexico City is all the rage these days!

They’ve set out to make it one of the best parties of the year featuring a live act by “Laser” (FR), SyntheticRocks Djs (Freestyle), Dann Kalter (Rockets) + Chuck Pereda (Imeca). If you are in or near Mexico City, make sure you hit up the SYNTHETICROCKS fiesta at ‘Pasaje Americas’, since unfortunately, we can’t be there!! Cheers guys! x

I think I need to add Jay-Z to my “Top of 2007 Forward Thinkers” list along with David Byrne and Thom Yorke. I think I also should add a category – “Music Industry Buzz Words of 2007″ and list – NEW MODEL, FIRED, RESIGNED, ARCHAIC, and FLAWED.

2008 is going to be a damn exciting year!

Nabbed this from JustJared.buzznet.com

Rapper/entrepreneur Jay-Z is stepping down as president/CEO of Def Jam Records after three years with the label.

Says Jay-Z, “It’s really about trying to invest in the future, trying to invest in maybe coming up with a new model. Because going in hard making records with artists and throwing those records into a system that’s flawed is not exciting for me. It’s not the music; people ingest music the same way. It’s just that the model of selling CDs has changed. So doing things the typical way is not in the best interests of anyone and not exciting for me. My whole thing is, how do we invest in the future? If everyone is committed to doing that, then I’m sure there’s a deal to be made.”

Jay-Z will continue to release his own music through his label Roc-a-Fella, which is under the Def Jam umbrella. Ella ella ella ey ey ey!
