Electronic trash can-lid bass rock rave death dance - "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" Skrillex

"Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" Skrillex

Now I know you won't all be fans, BUT hear me out! Skrillex was the first music I heard on my very first day at Coachella - memorable shit for more than that reason! The music was industrial and dancey and spastic and extremely effing loud. It's non-stop head bobbing. Didn't think much of it until last week, when I saw that Skrillex was nominated for a bunch of Grammys. Jigga say whaaa? This track is Legend of Zelda meets Transformers meets Lawnmower Man meets a dance party. Give it a listen on great headphones.

Side note: If you want another cool Skrillex song and an INCREDIBLE video, check this out: First Of The Year (Equinox). Oh, and he has a new album out, Bangarang. Not mad at this one bit. Yo, I'm buying up all these albums!

Guilty dirty pop pleasure (who says "sexting" is a bad idea?) - "Dirty Picture" Taio Cruz & Ke$ha

"Dirty Picture" Taio Cruz feat Ke$ha

I told you this blog was about whatever moved me at the moment - good, bad, ugly, or... trashy.

When to play it: After you've had one too many and want to grind on girls/boys; Michael's birthday party this Saturday (toward the end of the party mix, like I said, "one too many"); when you need the courage to take an iPhone shot of your cleavage and drunkenly send it to your coworker.

Side note: This song kicks in at 1:00 min with some Tiesto's red headed stepchild, Ke$ha becomes my idol at 1:30 min, this random guy named Taio looks smokin' at 2:01. BAM. SUMMERTIME.
