the bloody beetroots

Oh oh oh jam. One of my current favorite electro bands is The Bloody Beetroots, who hail from Italy.

They just did a mix for No Love Lost Records and the first ten minutes ripped my face off. Honestly, I was listening to it at the gym and it put a huge smile on my face. Check em out on Myspace and download the NLLR mix here.

The tracklist:
01. Goose – Everybody (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
02. Hostage – Gluttony (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
03. Martin Solveig – C’est la Vie (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
04. The Bloody Beetroots – We Are From Venice

I plan on getting my electro on tonite to Le Castle Vania, aka DJ Dylan, aka Dylan Eiland, who originally hails from Hotlanta. He’s playing tonite at Dance night at Arena in Los Angeles. Print out this pass and use it before 10:30pm for $5 cover. =]

Check out his songs “Tigertron” and “Trouble in Daylight” on his Myspace.

Here he is rocking the premiere of Dance night at Arena last November:

yelle if you heart frenchies

The French dance music train is going full steam ahead. I’ve been rocking out to Yelle, a French singer who clearly intends to keep the partyyy going. She will be playing Coachella 26 April 2008. Looks like you better get there early if you wanna catch her.

I love her song “A Cause Des Garcons” and the Tektonik remix on her Myspace. Enjoy the video here:

In Los Angeles concert news tonight, Vampire Weekend will be performing for free at Amoeba at 7pm.

Hot Chip has postpwn3d their show at the El Rey originally scheduled for tonight. (I heard it’s because a band member is sick, but I cannot confirm.)
