Je$u$ Jui¢e - All 101 free MP3Z


to first get a feel for it before downloading
zip files, here's a sweet sixteen sampler:
Je$u$ Jui¢e - 16 free MP3Z

this playlist starts off mellow & the party really kicks off around track #12 with a Boney M classic all the way through to track 101...
because it's the season, there are a few xmas tunes by Tchaikovsky, the Vince Guaraldi Trio, Doris Day, Moneypenny, the Japanese Popstars, as well as a few slower beats by the likes of Alton Ellis, Brigitte Bardot, Lykke Li, Sam Cooke, The xx,... & a few rare gems like the 10 minute funky outtake of Prince's Purple Rain, or Ghanaian highlife anthem Daa Nyinaa by Ata Tak:




here are more retro videos of tracks in the mix:





this one's all about shaking it on the dancefloor, with more obscure yet epic house tracks (from disco to tech-house) to cool remixes and/or covers of Sade, Little Boots, Lykke Li, Daft Punk, Daedelus, Friendly Fires, Feist, Fear Of Tigers, Phoenix, Fever Ray, Riva Starr, Sia, Treasure Fingers, Acid Washed, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bag Raiders, MillionYoung, Michael Jackson, Myd, Malente, Miike Snow, Diplo, Vitalic...
back to Escort whose video from a few years back still entertains me:


watch John Denver's Christmas Together with The Muppets.
as for Riva Starr's I Was Drunk (#52), i posted here the video.

since Je$u$ & i celebrate our natal birthdays soon, here's #8:



i've also included a remix of Ducksauce's "Anyway"
which already has 2 different videos posted

here & here

as usual i have a bunch of
recent super low-fi mobile pics:

this was We Are The World ("Claystones" is #37 in this playlist)
further up are pics at a show choreographed by Ryan
Heffington for the Sweaty Sundays benefit, which
included dancers from the incredibly creative
& invigorating Hysterica Dance Company:

here for much better Sweaty Sundays pics... this clip
might not do justice to the live performance but check it out:


Radiohead's sublime Weird Fishes was just posted (track #16).

this might have been
the first time i saw them dancing.
my first dance class crash course was at their
fingered parties.
around LA over the past year, Ryan & his posse staged a few
surprise
dance attacks; here's one of them outside the
Los Feliz 3 Theatre on Vermont Avenue.


and now more mobile shots from the weekend,
from Echo Park with Chicho to Mt Washington
with Liza, Phillip & their beautiful son Henry:
