After finishing the elbo.ws II project we decided to incorporate it into our forthcoming Night Shot Remix album. Here is the video and track which brings all the indie rock hits together for one big megamix! The Night Shot (Remixes) album should drop in June and we will be playing some shows and dj nights to support it. Expect remixes from Immuzikation, Will Eastman, The Buddy System, La Chansons, Big Fun and more!
Kindercore’s newest addition The Young Sinclairs (look for “Songs of the Young Sinclairs” on vinyl this summer!) are hitting the road with The Lovetones. These dates are not to be missed if you dig psyche-pop a la the Essex Green, “Younger Than Yesterday” ear Byrds, etc.
The Young Sinclairs on Tour with The Lovetones:
May 1 @ Piano’s w/ the Lovetones NYC, New York
May 2 @ Cameo w/ the Lovetones, Weird Owl Brooklyn, New York
May 3 @ Velvet Lounge w/ the Lovetones Washington DC
Ruby Isle is putting the finishing touches on Night Shot (remixes) due in May and we thought we would give you a little taste of what is to come courtesy of DC’s and Blisspop’s Will Eastman. Check out his remix of “So Damn High”. We loooove it and hope you do too!!!
The remix record will feature this track and remixes from Immuzikation, The Buddy System, La Chansons, Big Fun, Mystery Palace, I am the World Trade Center, Magic Cyclops, Sex Mannequin and more!
Here is what Will had to say about the track:
“The remix is inspired by French House and keyboard melodies from Prince’s “1999″ album. I come from a indiepop song writing background so when I do a remix I tend to focus on building around hooks and melodies. In this case, the original song was perfectly tailored for a dance remix. The lyrics are all about listening to music, dancing, getting up with your friends and getting crunk. You can’t really ask for more with a dance remix. I’ve been playing this at my monthly Blisspop dance parties in DC since December and the response has been great. It’s helpful to try a remix out on the floor then take it back and tweak it before sending the final version. It comes out officially in May on Kindercore records and will be available on Beatport, iTunes, etc. Most of the work was done at Dmerit’s studio here in DC and big shout outs to Micah Vellian and Outputmessage who jumped in on production and Jesse Tittsworth for his helpful feedback. A video for the remix directed by Kylos Brannon is in the works. Thanks for listening!”
Will Eastman is founder and resident DJ of BLISS and Blisspop dance parties in Washington, D.C. Eastman’s remix of Ruby Isle’s “So Damn High” will soon be available on Beatport, iTunes, etc. in May. He’s currently at work on several house/disco/funk originals slated for release on 12” this summer.
Many of you know by now that I am working on a new brand of scooters launching in the summer. Some of you even voted in our first survey about styles. Well, we have picked our bikes and settled on a rough logo so now it is time to pick the final name. We are down to two choices and I would truly appreciate it if you could take a second and weigh in with this 2 question survey. If you do, you’ll get to see the lineup of bikes and the logo, so you know, you’ve got that going for you.

Thank you so much, your help has been immensely helpful!
As I sat last night watching Watchmen at the local multiplex (it’s me, you see, who watches them), I couldn’t help but wonder about the optimal ordering of adjectives when describing Dr. Manahattan’s flaccid, phosphorescent phallus.
“Flopping, glowing, blue dong,” or “glowing, flopping, blue dong?”
My ladyfiend had no answer to this question, but was, nevertheless, well pleased by the amount of cock in an American, non-porn film.
Not like that.
Well maybe.
But more she pointed out that they’ll show any and all parts of women (sometimes simultaneously) in American movies whereas da butt represents extent of most masculine movie nudity.
Is it prudery or homophobia?
Or is it that glowing, blue dongs flopping around 5 feet high is just too funny for most movies?
As some of you know, I am a part of a new scooter upstart brand and I’d love to get your input on some possible designs we will be offering. If you have a few minutes please click HERE and share your thoughts. It really would be a huge help!
