Exhibit A: More Vitalic

I'm feeling very anxious right now. I've got so much energy that I decided to... blog. It is a gorgeous day (gorges!) and although I already had a promenade on the boulevard du Logan, I need more. I saw my friend Kevin last night with his brother and cousins, I had brunch with Ileya and her husband today -- who else is visiting Chicago now?

Since I was listening to the D is for Disco mix, it's high time I clean out my cupboards of all the albums from the last month or two I've been holding out on you guys with. Exhibit A is Flashmob. I can't really say that it's typical Vitalic because I only have one other album to base him off of, but I can say like OK Cowboy there is a healthy mix of what I would relegate into a dream-acid-jam category as well as the more intense hair-flaunting, armpit-licking, visage-punching intensity I (you) know and love.

Vitalic - Still
Vitalic - Poison Lips

Come to Chicago already

Among the many other reasons to learn French, I've never heard Vitalic speak...


I've ordered Flashmob and it's on its way over across the Atlantique. Can't wait.

We've Been Waiting a While

Deep from within the crystal caves of southern France emerging from his cocooned chamber of foot-stomping, leg-writhing, positively asymptotic electric bliss comes Monsieur Arbenz, Mr. Vitalic. Oh my. There is a new album coming out and even though my foot is sprained and swoll from Logan jogging, it is going to fall off on November 3rd while my landlady next door complains to her upstairs neighbor about the bass for the second time.

Oh my.

Minimix preview. Clicky.

2manydj's Video

Every time I go to LA, I give Amoeba a stop and search for some 2manydj's mix cd's (slightly legitimate bootlegs, but $25 a pop). I probably should just do the forum thing and get it from random internet folk for zero, but I guess I'm lazy. Anyway, seeing Soulwax perform at Coachella and 2manydj's in Chicago (same people by the way) for the first time(s) was a life changing experience (more on that later). Now they are making a video of their experiences of traveling, partying, and dj'ing. Link plus teaser:

Another aside, Partizan (the folks putting the movie out) makes me think of Pias and Citizen, which are who put Vitalic out. Why the guy hasn't had another album in out in a long time is beyond me. Here is the track that got me hooked on him +1, both off of OK Cowboy

Vitalic - My Friend Dario
Vitalic - Repair Machine DiscoMix

And now since it's halb zwolf on a school night, here's a chill track that I found through Erol Alkan's Bugged In Mix. Good night.
