Tonight is Bandfest, the UQ Colleges annual Battle of the Bands competition, hosted by the college that I live at, International House. We have to organise the whole fucking thing and the other colleges bitch and moan etc. HECK YES.
Anyway.
My task in the Bandfest organisation was to select the house music to be played over the speakers between the bands. And pick the song/s for the air guitar competition (WOMAN!)
That was fun. I was only asked to undertake this task because everyone where I live knows that I am a giant music nerd. Album art is cool, ok?
In other news, Nine Inch Nails released a new song by some weird phenomenon, and it's not that amazing. I think Trent has gone completely off the hook and is just making music like crazy without actually listening to it afterwards. NOT THE WAY TO GO.
Here is a good knock knock joke that my friend Heidi invented:
KNOCK KNOCK/Who's there?
BOO/Boo who?
OH I DIDN'T KNOW MORRISSEY LIVED HERE!
Many lols ensue. ------>
Some music I have been addicted to lately are DFA Remixes of other songs. My favourites are She Wants to Move from N.E.R.D. (who I think are hideously overlooked as pop masterminds) and My Love from Justin Timberlake. BUT SRSLY, ALL DFA REMIXES ARE GOLDEN.
Finally, it's time to talk about new music o'clock. I got an album called Antidotes by a band called Foals and it's pretty good. They kind of remind me of Q and Not U and Bloc Party combined, featuring the brass section from TV on the Radio. Have a listen.
Foals - The French OpenFoals - Cassius
ENJOY!!
