i wrapped up the holiday weekend at the Miike Snow afterparty... from penning pioneering pop singles such as Britney Spears' Toxic, to playing in punk bands, DJing, producing & churning out a plethora of remixes over the years, the boys behind Miike Snow - Pontus Winnberg & Christian Karlsson also known as Bloodshy & Avant - took over the decks at School Night. here's their latest video by one of my favourite directors - Andreas Nilsson:
and now, here are some of my mobile's super lo-fi pics of the after party to their monday night show:
memorial day weekend kicked off with with DJ Harvey, whom i hadn't seen in a while, and belgian boys Aeroplane at Rhonda-Vous... it's been soooo long since i've bouncey bounced on a dancefloor like an early 90s raver!!! as for the crowd, it was a little more like in this video... i also took some downtime hiking with Chicho, and hit up some BBQs. the pics below are from Irene's birthday one... between photos, i'm including a few more tunes. Damb's sampling of Harry Belafonte in Daylight is a little psychedelic; Francis & The Lights has a bit of a Genesis vibe to it, which i love; speaking of which, Ali Love's Love In Darkness gets me pumped! ok, here we go:

i love this Anthony Dickenson video for Animal, Miike Snow's big hit last summer. i've thrown the original & many other remixes in my playlists since then, some of which posted on this blog over the past few months... if you missed'em, you'll probably find some by entering "miike snow" on the search this blog box to the right... totally different, but equally cool, check Charlotte Gaingsbourg's latest video on this page...
