The Discotheque is Where I Go To Dance

This is one of those records you'll have been hearing all summer but whose identity you wouldn't necessarily know. 'Washing Up' by dapper Swede Tomas Andersson has been caned all year by every self respecting DJ, causing all kinds of mayhem. It's now been given a remix by Canadian electro commandant Tiga... who has turned it into even more of a lethal weapon. The US military should be keeping tabs on this shit! This is Tomas' fifth release on Berlin's BPitch Control - the label run by Ellen Allien. I'm currently on a mission to track down the others!



It's impossible not to compare this to 'Rocker' - since it features a similarly devastating riff... and expect this, like 'Rocker', to be released and remixed about 10 times in the coming year in a vain effort to crash the charts. You've probably got about 6 weeks of enjoyment left before it's all over radio 1... so make the most of it while you can!

And for a bit of fun, how about this dirty little ditty from Carlos Adolfo Dominguez.. which is about as serious as you'd expect from a song called B.O.O.B.I.E.S., and is all the better for it. Carlos clearly fancies himself as the fifth member of the Cuban Brothers:



It is compulsory to dance to this by squeezing boobies... real or imaginary.

I'm finally getting to see Arctic Monkeys tonight after spending a ridiculous £40 for a ticket to their Oxford gig... hopefully they'll live up to my towering expectations!

Come back tomorrow for my thoughts on that, and hopefully a track from the new Goldfrapp album...
