Monday Re up #10: 100th post extravaganza

This week's Monday Re up marks the 100th post in this blog's history and as a result ya'll are being treated to an extra large portion of songs to keep your toes tapping and fingers snapping throughout the week.

First of I came across this Lykke Li video of her performing Dance Dance Dance with none other than Bon Iver. Watch her shake her accessories about and flail around in the most memorizing of ways. The footage is shot in a kind of purposefully erratic way which for whatever reason ends up working wonderfully.

Also this week we've got the best Love Lockdown remix of the hundreds that surfaced from Kanye's stem experiment and an old (but great) kick push remix that I've been listening to lately. Enjoy the week.

Kanye Calls Us Heartless

I haven't addressed this Kanye West situation yet. Mostly due to the astonishing proliferation of Love Lockdown and in part because I wasn't sure how I felt about it. I'm still not sure, but this new single from the upcoming 808's and Heartbreak has gotten me a little more comfortable with this auto tune direction Kanye seems to be heading down. It seems to me the meticulous workings of a man with a plan. He seems set on diversifying out of the straight hip hop genre, and so far it's working. I guess?

Flosstradamus This Friday... getchasome

This friday Coda Club is hosting an old Chi town favourite for ya'll. Flosstradamus hasn't been around our city since the last time they played Coda. One of the select few acts that have kept me at a bar until closing. They know how to throw a party, so don't miss it. It's being hosted by HGHLY TGGBL and here's the event on the book. For those of you who - gasp - don't plan your social life that way,

Monday Re up #9: Unplugged

Like good Canadian pilgrims, we've deferred the monday re-up till tuesday this week. Give thanks we didn't skip it all together, okay? This week I'm bringing to attention some old favourites, being my two favourite tracks from Jay-Z's 2001 Unplugged album.

If this is news to you don't feel too bad. Your now the well informed individual you thought you were. Just keep reading.

Hot Chip Keeps Me Company

At the last minute, my super friends at Snap! Magazine have bestowed upon me a free ticket to the Hot Chip show tomorrow night. As the Pop Montreal festivities kick off, I'll be right in the thick of things. There's only one problem... No one seems to be going!

Literally no one I know is going and I realize the world may not revolve around me, but the facebook group, which is usually a okay, albeit lame barometer for event attendance, is literally barren. Anyways, I'm going regardless of whether I have anyone to go with. That's the sad story of my life folks.
