Sebastien Perrin. DJ PARIS.

his list:
Antony and the Johnsons, “Salt Silver Oxygen”: “Antony’s world-famous tremolo voice combined with the orchestral crescendo of the season, in my opinion.”
Aufgang, “Channel 7”: “It reminds me of the scary movies I used to watch when I was a kid, with an added sense of speed and danger.”
Chromeo, “J’ai Claque La Porte”: “An elegant and ironic love story, mixed by Philippe Zdar from Cassius. Translated, it means ‘I slammed the door.’”
Chilly Gonzales, “I am Europe (Claude Vonstroke Dub)”: “With its choppy beats and vocal bits, it’s a very sexy, uplifting song. It carries me away.”
Deine Lakaien, “Europe”: “A hypnotizing, futuristic take on Sixties French pop.”
Maximum Balloon, “If You Return (FEAT. Little Dragon)”: “This song, written by TV On the Radio’s Dave Sitek, perfectly captures the feeling of really fancying someone.”
Zola Jesus, “Night” and “Lightstick”: “The contrast between her beautiful voice and the bare music makes us all vulnerable listeners.”

Concert Review
I call this: Britney Spears verson 69.0.

Before the hate mail comes flooding in, I will preface this review by saying that once upon I time, I truly enjoyed the music a la Britney Spears. The best music from the show came from the remixed versions of old tunes that played between set changes. Her dancers put on quite the dance battle that proved to be the most entertaining part of the show. I felt a bit duped at the end, as though I could have received the same pole-humping, gyrating, bouncing, lip-syncing performance from a local strip club or anywhere in the Castro where at least my drinks are 2 for 1 instead of getting stepped on by pointy hooker shoes, and choking on feather boas in the sea of gays and slutted up girls at the venue. I spoke too soon, that happens in the Castro too, but there’s no $50 ticket requirement to get into the Castro. The set was amazing, and the stage in-the-round ensured the entire venue had a good seat. Light shows, trapeze performers, and pyro were all state of the art. What I had the biggest problem with was looking around and seeing 12 year-old-girls mimicking the pop-star sensation by thrusting their hips into the metal bars in front of their seats while singing along to “lets get naked, lets get naked, take it off take it off!” Then again, I should be blaming their parents and not the media-manufactured “singer” that really has the last laugh in her multi-million dollar profession. There was barely any interaction with the audience, however they did turn her mic long enough for her to give a shout out to Sacramento… though the concert was taking place in San Jose. Joke’s on me though, I’m fifty dollars down and she is $2123493582793842934.00 up.
I miss Britney 2.0.
