Lisboa, Tennessee?

When I first saw this video of Buckin and Jookin from Memphis I couldn't get over how familiar it looked. Then it struck me: It's really similar to Kuduro dancing, which is originally from Angola and getting big in Lisbon, Portugal where Buraka Som Sistema is from.

See for yourself:

It's Friday

So fuck shit up:

Adrian Lux-Can't Sleep

Call me sappy, but this video is the closest representation I've seen of the sort of empty, zombie state that heartbreak can put you in. I think it's really moving. I'll admit I got caught off guard at the end, but I liked it.

I'm back. Shinichi Osawa & Au Revoir Simone-Star Guitar

Well, sorry about that ridiculous absence. Let's get this shit going again with this gorgeous video from Shinichi Osawa, featuring the cuties from Au Revoir Simone. It's a cover of The Chemical Brother's Star Guitar, and it's great and a little haunting, I like it better than the original.
