Woke up today and felt kind of moody and melancholic.
Got a shift a this café where I've applied for work, which really is good news because that means I have a better chance at getting the job, but my gloomy brain didn't even feel happy about that. Just kind of indifferent.
Went to do the shift.
Now I'm exhausted but I feel like I could be the guy in this video, fucking chipper...! Weird what a bit of "purpose" in your daily life can do, isn't it?
So the video for SebastiAn's track "Love In Motion" was recently released. And almost before anyone got to see it the video was taken off Youtube. Why? Well, it seems the sight of the French child actress Lente Tresor dancing along to the track proved too risqué for some viewers.
Subsequently, someone else has uploaded the video and it has been "allowed" to stay up. YES, I can recognise the insinuation of a dance that can be interpreted as sexy and suggestive, but it is also fully possible to just appreciate it as being a feisty and energetic dance full of attitude and I-wanna-be-a-dancer-ambition. Of course I'm sure the video is meant to provoke, but there's no need to get all hysterical and pietistic about it. I think one should just enjoy the video for what it is.
But hey, that's just my opinion. Have a gander and make up your own minds as you are all individual and free-thinking human beings. And it IS a fucking awesome track.
You'll have to forgive me if my blog is looking slightly schizophrenic nowadays, constantly and erratically changing appearance. I'm just playing around with some ideas for designs, but as I'm sure you can appreciate, I lack the web design/photoshop skills to get anywhere near a good design. It's actually making me laugh when I'm sat trying to edit and mix these photos into something that is supposed to be a blog design. I'm like a dog in front of a computer: enthusiastic, but NO idea what I'm doing (so by all means, feel free to drop me some hints and tips if you feel like). Ah well, all I can do is soldier on and keep on trying. Rome wasn't built in a day and all that... (Nor did Roman builders throw down their tools in frustration, going "Oh fuck this! I've no clue what I'm doing")
Aaanywho. SO! I've moved to Copenhagen, ja? It is "meget sjovt". This city is fucking awesome, no doubt about it. I'm currently just exploring and getting to know the city, living lazy and unemployed days. So what could be more fitting than to share with you some Danish house music? If you haven't heard about Trentemøller, well... Then you're out of touch, granddad! But seriously, though, you should check him out... I'll give you a couple of examples of his electronic artistry.
This track, "Moan" is off his first album "The Last Resort". This video, man... Manly tears.
Trentemøller is also a wizard when it comes to remixes. This is one I stumbled across on the Hype Machine and I instantly loved it. Check it out for yourselves.
