In Flagranti

MIA :Marc by Marc SS08 : from frillr.com

I love DJ-ing in Jamaica. I think DJ-ing was invented here (lol). The placed is drenched in beats and bass at every turn. I was at a party tonight and got in trouble for playing Peaches " I U She". If you know the sentiment to that song you would know it was a direct provocation . That said cruised through frillr.com for my daily digest of all the SS08 ads that are dropping now in all the glossies. To my delight I bumped into MIA posing for Marc by Marc . Yay Marc! He made us happy by venerating the goddess. MIA was the very first post in TI back in August, and in that upload we prayed for the sight of our London lady laying down some ruling imagery as a latter day fashion icon. Dreams do come true! So with MIA in the middle, here's TI's playlist of 10 tracks we loved during 2007, in the sequence we would play them at a party.

Calvin Harris: Acceptable In the 80's: I Created Disco
Bright, brittle plastic dance pop always gets the party started right

In Flagranti:G***** Blue Room: Wronger Than Anyone Else
Very rail thin, drop dead, deadpan nightclubbing gla-mour

Black Ghosts: Face:Afterhours Ibizia
This song's been around a bit but it makes me just want to slip into a Lanvin tux and go!

Black Devil Disco Club:Coach Me:28 After
Very sinister, super-creepy. Totally Pre-Guliani Times Square strip joint

Van Sudenfed:The Rhinohead:Tromatic Reflexxions
I can't listen to the latter half of this LP now but the Rhinohead still gets it done...and that Fledermaus video on youtube! Hilarious and iconic!

TI loves Super-Clever Dance Music

I've enjoyed living inside the ongoing Jackie Collins novel that is the BHH over the past few days but now my brain is starting to rewire itself into a NY state of mind. And the new soundtrack? In Flagranti's "What Are You Doing After The Orgy". The title is a lot more arch than it seems. Those very words were the title of an infamous essay by Jean Baudrillard. Smart-ass semoitic referencing NY dance music...how could we resist. Also hot from In Flagranti is "We Make Love In A House Made Of Glass" and "Nonplusultra" from the "Wronger Than Anyone Else" LP. The rest is more of the same, if not quite as witty.
