Improving Ashlee Simpson

To prove Ashlee Simpson's newest musical froc, "Outta My Head" isn't that bad of a song, listen to the much improved remix version by Brad Walsh. See, totally danceable! If you like it, download the MP3.

Now somebody find me blue eye shadow, warm-up socks, a hair crimper, and lots of rubber bracelets. I'm goin out tonight.

Feeling Bad For Ashlee Simpson

Poor thing timed the release of her new video and single "Outta My Head" at the wrong moment because this week has been all about Jaime Lynn Spears gettin' preggers. Ironic since Jessica Simpson lived in the shadow of Britney Spears for years and now it seems after finally stepping out of the shadow of her big sis Jess, Ashlee is bumboozled by Jaime Lynn.

The new single is different from her previous stuff but Ethan of Homorific hit the nail on the head when he said it's very reminiscent of the 80's group Missing Persons.

Get With The New Dances

I'm only 27 but I can admit how I danced when I was was 19 is now outdated. So in order to re-educate myself, I went looking for the hottest dance styles this year. You've got American Krumping, French Techtonik, and Dutch Jumpstyle. Hit the jump to watch each dance style in action. I think I'll take up Techtonik.



Krumping is known for its expressive and highly energetic movements.



Techtonik is a mix of disco, pop locking, and vogueing.



Jumpstyle is characterized by its jumping and stomping movements, carefully combined in choreographed sequences.

Declare Independence

Director Michel Gondry's visual genius, a mid-air suspended bassist, Mark Bell, and Björk's infinite vocals getting the color treatment courtesy of a magic, puppeteering megaphone. Has sort of a 'We Don't Need No Education' feel to it. Aces I tells ya.

Yes I Know The Music

In the last month I've received 117 emails about this ad for D&G Time watches. All sorts of questions filled my inbox most of which I can't answer like, "who are those hot male models?" But I can answer one question and that's the music. The artist is called Stylophonic and the track, 'R U Experienced'.

Enjoy

Like Two Different People

Nick Patera really amazes me. He's a Broadway hopeful with an amazing voice. The ability to sing both male and female leads in Disney's 'A Whole New World' is no easy task and he pulls it off beautifully. If you weren't impressed by that, check out his falsetto in his rendition of The Little Mermaid's 'Part of Your World'.

What's In Daft Punk's Pyramid

If you were one of the lucky people to see Daft Punk perform in their seizure inducing light pyramid this year, then I'm sure you wondered what exactly was in the cube - that is once you recovered from the frenzied light show.

It's a gaggle of technomatronamatry with gidgets and gadgets galore. You know, synth, light boards, computers, moogs, and freakin' laser beams. I have no idea what most of the stuff is but if you're interested, head on over to Kitsune Noir for the dirty deets.

And if you haven't already, go buy Daft Punk's Alive album NOW. Sonic perfection.
