Nana SMASHER Gangster Music

I can get the new Calvin Harris stuff out of my head. DJ Legacy blasted the first two tracks to a raucus crowd on Friday night. We'll probably all be sick of this in a few months, but oh well. Sunday Funday.

Rihanna - We Found Love (featuring Calvin Harris) by nikorobine

Feel So Close (Special Features Remix) - Calvin Harris by specialfeatures

This is an awesome tune. RAC's infectiously poppy edit complements this Theophilus London song perfectly.

Theophilus London - Why Even Try (RAC Remix) by TheophilusLondon

I have to credit this last inspiration to DJ Legacy as well...

Wyclef Jean feat. The Rock - It doesn t matter by untzologicalsociety

Sunday Funday.

Daytime Disco


Lazersaurus is back after a long summer (and indian summer) of just crushing life out in the sunshine. Fueled by my new portable Bose iPod dock (seriously amazing, a must own for the music/nature lover), the summer was filled with wonderfully inebriated young Americans dancing to serious beats in the great outdoors. Daytime disco parties are a delight, and I hope that we all continue this trend as autumn sets in. Here are a few tracks to ignite your next daytime dance party.

You need to start your party with a funky punch. Kick your hangover with a Californian (vodka, fresh OJ, fresh grapefruit juice, lime wedge) and this absolute banger of a track. I dare you to not dance when listening to this. Immediate mood enhancer.

Goldroom - Morgan's Bay


DOM is one of my favorite groups out there right now. I had the privilege of seeing and briefly meeting the band and the man behind the band, who's name is actually Dom, this past spring. They are high energy, angsty teens from Worcester, MA as their upbeat sound juxtaposes Dom's rough upbringing. This remix is a soul scorcher. Big booming voices and a steady beat tear at your eardrums in the best way. Dom's voice is ethereal and almost effeminate, but it works perfectly.

DOM - Jesus (Vacationer Remix)


As the day continues to pulse and the cocktails keep pouring, people crave for music that they know at least at some level. I found this suuuppppeerrr sexy remix of Daft Punk's track "Something About Us". Also, the remixing artist may have the best artist name I've ever heard in a while: Jellynut. If you are not taking your shirt or somebody else's shirt off at this point, you've probably got it all wrong.

The day begins to fade and the sun begins to set. Off in the distance the moon is rising. Its orange glow marks the end of your epic day of disco, but all is not lost. The night is upon us, dear children. Take a shower, whip up a Nixon Martini (half beefeater, half absolut, dry, lemon twist...always stirred, never shaken) and listen to this wonderful track as you watch the sky glow and plot your evening's adventures.

Poolside - Harvest Moon
