The Art of Letting Go
Good news and bad news… Bad news: Despite the absurd amount of work that both Rya and I have put into it, the Great Top 50 Singles Project of 2007 has been abandoned. That said, I wouldn’t be completely surprised if it popped up here at some completely arbitrary point far removed from 2007 like July or some shit, so keep hope alive if you can even be bothered to care at this point. Good news: I’ve amassed a ridiculously large backlog of content to post in the epic amount of time spent on that Top Singles bullshit and now that I’ve put it behind me I can get back to my regular posting habits and start disseminating the aforementioned hot jams to the masses. Furthermore, we’ve got a shit ton of exclusive content lined up for you in the coming weeks, so stick around, will you?
Said exclusive content will begin later today or tomorrow, but here’s this in the mean time. I never thought So-Me could top “D.A.N.C.E.”, and then he raised the bar again with his video for Kanye’s “Good Life”. Then he goes and drops this shit on us? Out of control. Fuck YouTube, hi-res download below.

ALSO EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:
Dekker is a friend of mine from Clinton’s and he’s been putting on his excellent Apocalypso night at The Old Queen’s Head in Islington for exactly a year now, and to celebrate they’ve got an extra special line-up all ready to go for Saturday, featuring none other than Paul Epworth A.K.A. Phones A.K.A. Epic Man A.K.A. the fucking man headlining and yours truly getting things started on the ones and twos from 9-10:15 PM. My roommate and I have been DJing under the name Fresh Prints since… alright well this is our first formal gig outside of a few afterparties here and there, but I assure you it’ll be awesome. Anyone coming down (which you should, even if only to see Mr. Epworth do the damn thing from 1:30-2:45) shouldn’t expect any world class transitions or superior mixing skills on display during our set, but you can fully expect to hear jams of the extremely hot variety dropped in spades. Rounding out the night are a live performance from Miss Odd Kid and sets from the Magic Circle and Adventures Close To Home DJs, both of whom know how to put it down with authority, and of course Dekker himself. Set times are below, as well as one of Phones’ finest and most obscure remixes to get you in the mood. See you there?
