Dj poptart - Noctilucent
83mb, 1 hour live continuous Electro/Pop/Girly/Feisty/Neon-in-the-basement mix.

You've already been dancing for 3 hours. The venue is small, hot. You're sweaty,tired, standing out in the parking lot wondering of you should drive home. You hear a faintly familiar track come on the dancefloor. A fidgety second wind hits you and you know you can't go home yet. The night rewards you and your friends.

Here is the tracklist!
1) Road To Recovery (D.I.M. Remix) - Midnight Juggernauts
I love the intro- but the rest of the track isn't as melodic. Still, I wanted to set the theme.

2) Any Way You Choose To Give It (Boy 8 Bit MiX) -The Black Ghosts
The best use of 8-bit sounds in a remix I've heard so far. So clean and pixeleated! So melodic!

3) Cross The Dancefloor (Laidback Luke Remix) -Treasure Fingers
Must have one song about dancing. Robot boys singing to robot girls is always good.

4) Time To Pretend (DMoeFunk Club Mix)- MGMT
This track starts to take the mix into its story.

5) Star Guitar (alavi reroX)- The Chemical Brothers
I love this loungy remix of the Chemical brother's classic. Even more spacey. You should feel what I feel.

6) The Longest Road (Sonik & Simpson remix) -Morgan Page feat. Lissie
I've been waiting for the perfect remix of this to pop up forever. It's not dj friendly for mixing, but the beauty of the song makes it worth it.

7) Stuck on Repeat vs. It's a Fine Day (Richard X Blend)- Little Boots vs. Opus 3
A classic, electro-fied. I used to listen to this song when I woke up on sunday mornings. Softens out the sass of Longest Road.

8) Sleep Deprivation (12" Version)- Simian Mobile Disco
Starts with back of your mind bleeps, and then ramps up into unstoppable an Harpsichord whirlwhind. So epic! What could possibly contain the power of this track?

9) Ce Jeu (Cool Kids Can't Die remix)- Yelle
The first strange discovery of this mix, poppy french girls taking out the harpsichord army with class and ease.

10) Lauren From Glebe (Damage Edit)- Muscles
We heard the music from over the fence, so we threw up our hands with a smile on our faces. Went to the front with our names on the list. Those who were strangers had turned into friends
This is what a good night out is about. I had to hold back from using more than one unashamedly joyful Muscles track in this set.

11) Just Can't Get Enough (Dirty South Remix)-Depeche Mode
12) Overdose - DJ tomcraft
I've held on to the discovery of these two songs mashing up perfectly for a long time. Now it's finally recorded. Overdose takes the sappy happy if I Just can't get enough and turns it dark.

13) Shut Up And Let Me Go (Left/Right Remix) -The Ting Tings
The girl from the ting tings sasses back in a powerful remix. Don't tell me what I want.

14) Take on me (Where?) A-ha
I've lost the info for where I got this track. But it calls back to I just can't get enough with a eerie, transcendent version of the song.

15) Freak Me (VLRNA Remix)- Silk
Such a unique sounding remix. I love it's unexpectedness.

16) YOA (The Twelves Remix)- Theatre of Disco
Been in love with this track for months, though it is hard to mix.

Burn, share, enjoy, and let me know if it works for you.

Invasive imaginary personal polls reveal that .045+A/bc+16/pie% of young female voters of legal drinking age and reasonable interest in what the heck is going on feel like this.

What I saw at presidential debate 10/16/08.

Needed to draw and not click. Putting a sheet over my original doodle and finding the most important things in it helped me here. They were doodles I knew had something... but I'm wasn't sure what.

Dino one: Grrrrmph! Hop Hop!

Dino Two: Oooh snuzzle wobble snuzzle.

Dino Three: Oh no thank you I just had a huge lunch with an old friend and I am completely stuffed but they do look lovely!

Not that it matters, awkward dinos, because here comes the big swoopy comet of your doom. 

Pra-KOWW!

I would call this a design more than a drawing. I'm not happy that there's no emotion in it besides WHOOWSH WOAH SO COOL. So it's a design. Like a stained glass window.

You know what did have emotion? The 3rd season of Avatar.  I held off watching this series for a long time, because the episodes I caught here and there on tv didn't hold me. But believe you me, I now have watched it fully and It Deserves Your Time and Attention. It is important to modern day animation storytelling. When you have some time to give it, do so, and you will not be sorry.

Also, here's a flyer I made. 

I've been doing a lot of this hard edged compu-art because I do not have to bend over a desk to do it. I can sit up and click and it gets me into playing with colors and shapes quicker than making a nice drawing does. 

I hate desk.

Happy Oct!
