M83 At Terminal 5 In NYC On May 10, 2012. 

are you kidding me, chrome sparks? 

London DJ and producer Gold Panda is killing it. His last LP Lucky Shiner continues to challenge and satisfy it's listeners, while key track "You" could be regarded as a modern electronic classic. 

A few months ago he released a remix of Lykke Li's "Sadness Is A Blessing", taking a gorgeous track and making it into something otherworldly. It's on another level.

Catch him play The Independent on October 25.

Babs is a babe.

fade out/fade in.

today is the end of an eleven day work stretch. 

every day i feel stronger. leaner. 

People worry about kids playing with guns, and teenagers watching violent videos; we are scared that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands - literally thousands - of songs about broken hearts and rejection and pain and misery and loss. The unhappiest people I know, romantically speaking, are the ones who like pop music the most; and I don't know whether pop music has caused this unhappiness, but I do know that they've been listening to the sad songs longer than they've been living the unhappy lives.

- Rob, "High Fidelity", by Nick Hornby
