nu-mi vine sa cred ca n-am pus-o p-asta pana acuma. am vazut-o la diana pe facebook, dar n-are cum sa lipseasca de-aici.

inaugurez cu aceasta ocazie vimeo-ul, ca pe youtube nu este.

I’ve never been one to know what exactly everyone is listening to, and I’m not the one in my circles of friends that has their finger on the pulse of the freshest tunes, but every now and then a song crosses my path and it becomes my theme song for a little while.  I thought it might be cool to share the one I’m living through right now!  If you haven’t given the album Apocalypso by The Presets a try, I heartily recommend it.  However, I haven’t really listened to the whole thing that much (even thought I did like it when I played it through once or twice) because I keep replaying the song, “This Boy’s In Love.”  I even bought the remix album and I rarely do that.  So, I’m not gonna go all critic for you and try to describe it.  All I know is it makes me dance, propelling me forward into the future.  I hope you enjoy it!

* Five Minutes Later *

The link is here, but do me a favor and do not watch the video.  Simply play the tune without watching the tepid and trite psuedo-narrative that accompanies the song.  I hadn’t seen it until just now (I’m not one to watch much television much less music videos) and damn is it disappointing.  Anyway, play it but don’t watch.  Seriously.  And if you do, and you wanna bitch about it then leave a comment, but I’d rather talk about how the lyrics kick so much poetic ass.  I think the song rocks.  I just wish I hadn’t seen the video because the narrative I had in my imagination was infinitely richer than what I just saw.  Okay, I’ll stop now.  Click this link!  And read the following lyrics:

THIS BOY’S IN LOVE

I stole the keys to the skies, 
we’ll leave this place for the final time, 
no crying words, no goodbyes, 
yes tonight we’re burning all the tough times. 

drown all the fears that we had, 
these are the things that we’ll never understand. 
this time fight fire with fire, 
cause baby tonight, the world belongs to you and I. 

This Boys in love, 
love 
this boys in love 
under city, under city lights. 

dont tell the world what we’ve known, 
we’ve come so far, but theres still a way to go, 
its dark, theres no need for lights. 
when the fire in his eyes is so bright. 

this boys in love, love. 
this boys in love, under city lights. 

tonight, turn out the lights. 
dont wait, too late to die. 
look out, hold on, hold tight. 
tonight all night i’m getting ready so 

love (x4) 
this boys in love, 
[this town, this street, your friends, 
you’ll never see this place again, 
you’ll think about it now and then. 
you’ll never see our face again.

This would have to be one of the hottest film clips. I bloody love it. Homoerotic or what?

Song of the Day: The Presets – This Boy’s In Love (LifeLike Remix)

Notes: On some days I love this kind of music. It’s definitely great for dancing! Download this song for free at rcrdlbl.com

Não é porque não vou sair hoje que não posso me animar!

Cut Copy – Far away – essa musiquinha é tããão fofa! Tô adorando Cut Copy, ouvindo toda hora. E esse começo com palminhas, todo pra cima?!
We Are Scientists – Chick lit (Danger TV remix edit) – esse remix é uma delícia, para brincar de fazer pose na pista jogando o cabelo prum lado só, bem Malu-Mader-em-Top-Model
Miami Horror – Don’t be on with her – mais anos 80, impossível. Parece música de festinha de filme com o Kevin Bacon, que todo mundo dança estalando os dedos
The Presets – This boy’s in love – essa música já apareceu por aqui em versão videoclipe. The Presets é quasequase tão bom quanto Cut Copy – ainda prefiro os segundos, mas essa coisa meio fubazenta do The Presets me atrai. Cheira a inferninho do interior…
Falco – Rock me, Amadeus – clássicos não morrem. Minha irmã tinha o vinil. Eu amava!

The Presets – This boy’s in love

Acontece.

Aussies know how to go all the way down under and produce them dark, dirty sounds like no one can.

With Cut Copy releasing In Ghost Colours, I thought few could match them this year.

Then came along The Presets with Apocalypso. This might just take the cake.

I cant decide which album’s better. They are both 5 lightning bolts to your ass.

Grab this mad mad single from them and i think your chills will be crawling all over your stiff body.

This week was pretty horrible for new music (unless you’re a Raven-Symone fan or think that Madonna can still be relevant), but there was one good album in the form of Australia-based duo The Presets.

The group creates a sound similar to what you’d expect from groups like Daft Punk with a bit of extra disco thrown in for good measure. Their newest album, Apocalypso, is a freaking fun dance disc full of phat beats and hefty electronica to make sure your party keeps rocking all night. Plus, singer Julian Hamilton sounds like an awesome mix of Depeche Mode’s David Gahan and Brandon Flowers of The Killers. Watch the video for “My People” and get a link for another below.

The Presets – This Boy’s In Love (Lifelike Remix)

When The Presets (myspace) dropped the first single off their forthcoming LP Apocalypso, I wasn’t as hyped as others. I just found ‘My People’ to be a bit much, it had all the intensity of a smashing Presets track but it perhaps wasn’t what I was expecting – ‘Girl and the Sea’ anybody?

In any event, after seeing it thrown down at Nevereverland I was sold.

To cut to the chase, their second single, ‘This Boy’s in Love’, has got me psyched in a whole different way. The first I heard of it was on Lifelike’s myspace, where I noticed the French DJ/Producer was doing a remix of it. Then lo-and-behold Waves At Night came through with the original, and now the remix!

Track: The Presets – This Boy’s In Love (Lifelike Remix) (over at Waves At Night)

Is it just me or can you totally hear the KIM influence in the building synth melodies a la ‘Fistogram’? Well of course Kim has a bit to do with how it sounds, but I’m really digging where both outfits are going with it.

On my way out the door to Shelby’s birthday dinner (holla!) but wanted to post this video just because I like the tune and it features hot guys wrestling in what looks to be milk. It reminds me of Domino Dancing, by the Pet Shop Boys. It’s by The Presets and is called This Boy’s In Love. European music is so much more interesting. What else? Oh, yes, still obsessed with that Brenda Dickson video I posted a few days ago. Also, my stomach aches because I ate too much cheese today at work in one of the conference rooms. It tasted good because it was free.  

So I’ve been cruising over the blog for awhile now and thought I should at least contribute something. The perfect way to start is by posting the new presets video from their soon to be released LP ‘Apocalypso’, which everyone should buy on April 12th. The Presets second single ‘This boys in love’ is a bit more mellow than the first single ‘My People’ but is a great track nonetheless. Enjoy the clip.

The presets sacan disco en breve, el segundo single de
“Apocalypso” se llama This Boy’s in Love, saldrá en
Modular Records.
