remember the good old days? when you could sit by the gowanus canal and actually just sit by the gowanus canal? when you could actually find a chocolate chip newsstand when you were looking for one? before iceberg lettuce? well…we do. and if you do too, we have some tunes just for you!

The Tough Alliance - First Class Riot

Originoo Gunn Clappaz - No Fear

Yo, so we apologize for the dearth of listings the last few weeks. But between the finals, papers, and tantric breathing exercises your intrepid hosts undertake, we just haven’t found much time for the music. What a blessing then, when the good folkers at BuffetLibre sent us the following mix.

Now, we get utter shit in the mail everyday from people asking us to post (hint: there’s still a guy that is enjoying MASHUPS with the Presidents of the United States… a shiny rupee to he who figures out what artist he would mashup their popular song with…). So it was delightful to get something actually interesting. Apparently there’s a backstory to this mix; there were “guest selectors” for certain songs. Whatever, just enjoy it and go ride your bike!

Buffetlibre Dj: “Verbena Selected 3: The Aftershow Party” (Zshare)

Spring makes us jump for joy, it really does, and as our neighborhood(ies) experience tons of growth, we have only to celebrate, count down the moments till that godforsaken spring break descends on us and listen to these fun, dancey songs.

Estelle - No Substitute Love
Fruko - El Preso

We made another mix–for our girl’s most excellent pool party & schvitz spectacular. It’s 90 minutes. You’ll dance. And it starts with an exclusive Lil Wayne / FPU (Miami Vice) smash up. There are a few fades–we apologize, but we’re just getting the hang of the softwarez.

Hotshit & Fuckyeah - Pool Party Mix

Celebrate a soon to be more frequent meteorological event with two minute dance parties in living rooms everywhere.

Au Revoir Simone - Fallen Snow (Teenagers remix)

Substantially less hated than the TSA (that recently started a fucking blog, with humor no less!), local brownstone band Professor Murder seems nevertheless to be buying into paranoid theories about their incidental relationship to the SoCa scene. We at TMYLM are never ones to shy away from controversies, and since we’d rather devote our love to Professor Murder instead of blog whipping boys the NYPD, we’ll go ahead and post a little remix that just came our way… And to prove that PM may or may not be so late on the bandwagon its like local positivist philolsopher gone wrong, compare it to the old Dutch Hex which kicked major fucking ass.

Professor Murder - Dutch Hex (Max Pask Murdub Mix) removed by request of someone
Professor Murder -Hutch Dex

We don’t normally do this at TMYLM but a particularly abject night leads us to a reposting of this delicious DJ Hoff mix, which came to us via the Neutered Noel via The Sweet Fix via Discobelle (via ethanol subsidies powering electricity, newly responsible for fucking bagels rising to over $1).

DF Hoff - Stereo! Mix

Today TMYLM continues our tour of aural worldly delights, after a brief respite in honor of plagiarism and death surrounding the blogosphere in these darkened times. Yes, you’ll have to put on your famous sunglasses for these ones, both picked up, sans venereal disease, in a hostel somewhere in the southern hemisphere. First up we have rootsrock band Kultiration bringing in a dancehallish rhythm over some weird-ass Swedish mixing. Sounds lame until ya hear it, don’t ya know… Next up is Colombian band Aterciopelados notspinning out some cool ass cumbia but without the beats so prevalent in, well, these darkened times. Next time you’re waiting in some cold ass line to hear Diplo at your local shithole, you’ll appreciate these in your mind.

Kultiration - Sparkar Och Slag
Aterciopelados - Baracunatana

This is how New York does it - but despite our city descending into revanchist, neoliberal hell, some people, namely us, still manage to find time to throw a party or two. Or perhaps we throw them because, being inside already-existing late capitalism, we subjects can’t really articulate a response that has not already fallen, Britney-Speaks-like, to the jackals of consumption. Below, then, are two unabashed pop songs that we will play at our party on Friday. And if you don’t want to subject yourself to more lectures, you’ll blast them right now.

Yes, I’m in finals mode. Tough shit.

Montell Jordan - This Is How We Do It
Gameboy Gamegirl - Sweaty Wet Dirty Damp

…to those that cry “but nobody dances in new york!” and stand stuck to the wall like an overcooked string of spaghetti, to the guys wearing purple diagonal-striped oxfords and belligerently begging for a cigarette, to the waitress ruining an awesome chicha night of dancing by passive-aggressively demanding a so-called suggested donation, to those that know that a napkin and pen are always better than a cell phone for taking down someone’s number, and to friends in other cities that I miss the shit out of.

Black Kids - I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance with You
Black Kids - Hurricane Jane
Los Mirlos - Lamento En Salva
