So You Think You Can Dance?

So You Think You Can Dance

A lot of attention here has focused on the brilliance behind the one man band.  True geniuses in their own right to be sure.  However, respect should be paid to those that dance all by their lonesome at a venue of their choice.  We’ve all witnessed or executed a similar circumstance; whether it’s 1/3 of Bell Biv DeVoe jumping on stage in between sets at a Soulwax concert, or busting your two-step with Mr. Gillis next to his laptop.  It never fails to entertain.

Fresh from the Sasquatch Music Festival in Washington a couple weeks ago, a video has surfaced of a happy-go-lucky fan who clearly enjoys the shit out of Santigold’s “Unstoppable.”

Would you join him?  Or would you sit idle in the crowd?  He surely makes a convincing case for the former.  Take note, fellas.  I expect to see similar moves constructed at Monolith later on this summer.

Mine As Well Chew the Phat….

Whoa.  Fire!  And I’ve really gotten past the remix lately; especially a track as played out as “Sweet Dreams” by the Eurythmics.  The rumor is that Chew Fu Phat,out of Brooklyn, (he’s not jangly) has the potential to absolutely destroy the dancefloor.  I don’t really know what that means anymore, since I’m too old for that environment.  But, I definitely can put this guy’s tracks on blast over here, and that is what is currently taking place.

In this mix, Chew places two MCs that are foreign to me: J-Cast & Substantial to rhyme and bounce over Annie’s vocals and a gutter bass like beat.  I could see this making some clubgoers rather excited, maybe even fucking ecstatic.  I’m clubbin’ right now at my desk listening to this–It is Friday night, right?
