jt introduced me to the bloody beetroots some time in the past two weeks, and i’ve been bouncing up and down to it since yesterday when i casually IM’ed hatim “oooooh bloody beetroots” and he immediately tagged me as his elektroclash kaki or something like that and stopped giving me airy fairy indie pop-masquerading-as-rock, though deerhoof was a nice touch.

sigh, no one else quite does elektro like the europeans.

so hatim was in supposed dj mode yesterday, and i can diss him without fear because he refuses to read “blogs” (said sneeringly) nowadays anyway, and he started on an mp3-on-msn sending spree.

this is his lapsap-inspired list.

bonde do role – gasolina
don rimini – let me back up (crookers tetsujin mix)
MSTRKRFT – VUVUVU
federico franchi – cream
jesse mccartney – leavin’ (MSTRKRFT remix)
robin s vs steve angello & laidback luke – shoe me love vs be (hardwell bootleg)
shinichi osawa – star guitar
timbaland – miscommunication (the bloody beetroots remix)
digitalism – pogo (shinichi osawa remix)
shitdisco – 72 virgins (the blood beetroots remix)
MGMT – kids (soulwax remix)
hot chip – ready for the floor

nice nice. my only fear is that from outside my car, all the hard bass beats will sound like fengtau. coupled with my orange hair, i’m going to be so lalamui. current favourite? the bloody beetroots – dimmakmmunication.
