DOWNLOADABLES #80. Chromeo / Fancy Footwork. Update on my move…

Ever since Oz bluetoothed this track to me yesterday, I haven’t stopped playing it. It’s desperately catchy, insanely groovy and the 80’s synth-electro-rock-pop sound of the whole deal makes me wanna… boogie.
Chromeo is a Montreal based electrofunk duo whose music is described as “a shameless return to the glistening, sex-saturated synth-pop which ruled the eighties.”

HOTEL GOSSIP. WTFML. TWO NEW LAVIATORS

Hey guys. I’m relieved I got off this return flight alive. And that is being honest. I spent the past 8 hours walking up and down the aisles with absolutely not a second for myself and my poor little weak legs. I did not sit once in 8 hours. That’s how bad the flight was.
It [...]

Well Done. Update of the last 72 hours

Common Flight Attendant problems : Layover Blues.

I’ve experienced such state a few times already. Doing circles in my hotel room like a goldfish in bowl. As it might sound funny from the outside, it isn’t for the one living it. Living this fast paced life can lead to all sorts of different behaviors and moods you never thought you’d go through. [...]

May Roster detailed… I heart Crew Schedz!
