Nike commissioned LCD Soundsystem for 45:33, a running mix. Pitchfork has already reviewed it. When I first heard about this collaboration, I spent a while trying to decide whether it's deridable sellout (Losing My Edge, indeed), or more likely, a little bit cool. Musically, though, it's very good. No superfluous lyrics other than a couple of vocal samples, and plenty of warm-up (~5 minutes)/cool down chillout (~10 minutes) sandwiching approximately 30 mintues of discopunk we all know and love from James Murphy.
Yeah, this will be the soundtrack to my next jog.

too good not to share
I have a natural disdain of (most) Yalies for myriad reasons.
But here's one more, straight from Bizzaroville: Aleksey Vayner. Every little thing he does is magic.
The entire saga can be found here and here.

Due to the former stalker situation, I'm not posting exactly which shows I'm attending.
And I apologize for that.
Because you really should have been at the Alias & Tarsier show last night.
It was beautiful.
They're about halfway through their tour.

typo?
If you like fonts and typography as much as I do (and I hope you don't - it's probably not healthy, esp. if you're not in the field), early 2007 will be a very happy time:
Behold.
Helvetica. The film.
P.S. And in the extremely unlikely event that you're wondering: my personal faves are Futura (the Royal Tenenbaums font), Grotesk, and Century Gothic. Mmmm, modern.
