Also if you have any issues with this video I suggest you read this.

Smile dude. Things are somethings okay. Like this. This is awesome.
If these grooves and moves don't cheer you up then sorry but I don't understand.
Sinkane's new album Mean Love is out now and very good.
music video of the day: "Running Up The Hill" by Kate Bush
Because...
- She just played her first show in 35 years, kicking off a 22 show run at London’s Eventim Apollo and I wish I could go. Alas, it all sold out in 15 min.
- She is an total goddess.
- I need to learn this choreography.

It's Friday. Bust out them moves. Just check these dudes. They know.
Caught Jungle live a month ago and the entire venue was groovin so hard.
God damn do those guys know how to get people dancing.
Jungle’s self-titled debut album comes out July 15 on XL. Pre-order it now if you like.

Friiiiidaaaaaaaay! Shake it out.
music video of the day: "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson
The first memory I have of music is of this song.
My parents are pretty young. When I was little & growing up they'd often have friends over for parties. There was a specific mix CD my dad had made and he played whenever we were having people over; it started with this song. I called it "the party song" and would beg my parents to play it so I could have dance parties in the living room.
Can you blame me? It's such a groove.
RIP

music video of the day: "Coffee" by Sylvan Esso
Because their fantastic debut LP comes out tomorrow & my pre-order came in today. Love it.
Seeing as the album comes out tomorrow, you have but mere hours left to stream said fantastic debut LP over at NPR. Do it up. Do it up. + ICYMI: check out their video for "Play It Right" !
music video of the day: "Drop the Game" by Flume & Chet Faker
Just realized I posted all dance focused music videos this weekend. That being said, each entry is so different from the next. From Friday's mini Sia featuring "Chandelier" to yesterday's Owen Pallett string swelling "Song for Five & Six" to this haunting coolness. Which is your fav of the weekend? I can't decide. Perhaps this one. Yeah. Maybe. Yup.
music video of the day: "Song for Five & Six" by Owen Pallett
If you know me at all then you know I love Owen Pallett. There's a reason the man is THE go to string guy. There's a reason I've seen him live so many times. There's a reason when given the opportunity I will gush on and on about how the man is a true talent and gift.
I guess I should play it cool and pretend I'm not such a fan or whatever. That's "cooler" right? Ugh. I don't care. His music moves me in all types of ways. It pulls and pings at my heart strings. And passion isn't chill.
So yes. Come out to the Danforth Music Hall tonight. Pallett is on at 9:30pm but come early for Doldrums cus they also are rad. It's a CMW show so your wristbands will get you in. If not, tickets at the door. Either way just be there.
His new album In Conflict is out May 13th on Domino but you can grab a copy tonight at the show.
Album release is three weeks away but this shizz will be available at shows starting this Friday :) pic.twitter.com/CwGLXw2TQN

Incredible epic flawless imperfection.
Stunning.
music video of the day: "My Moon My Man" by Feist
Because any time I'm at the airport this video pops into my head.
All I wanna do is dance on those moving walkways. Always.
I went to Pearson today to see off my little sister who's heading back to Halifax.
The holidays are officially over.
Sigh.
ps. Are Lizzy Caplan and Feist friends?
They're both rad and kinda look alike.
I vote they make a video together.
music video of the day: "Platoon" by Jungle
Because it was one of my favourite videos of the year and totally underrated.
B-Girl Terra does it up. Happy New Year everyone!
music video of the day: "JACK" by BREACH
Because tonight Toronto is burning and I'm going to a ball.
Have a freaky Friday y'all.
Happy Friday!
in Friday
It's Friday! It's Friday! It's Friday! It's Friday!
music video of the day: "When A Fire Starts To Burn" by Disclosure
When a fire starts to burn, right? And it starts to spread...
This jam though. It's hot right? It's sizzling.
I'm taking it easy tonight but damn does this make me want to go out. Perhaps instead I'll just play their much anticipated debut album Settle so so so loud and dance around on my own Robyn styles or whatnot. Great album name too eh? It's like "lol guess I'll settle for this?" but it's also like "OI SETTLE MATE SETTLE!" So not going to settle down though. Not when there's tunes like these banging.
ps. My recap + photos from their last Toronto show
music video of the day: "Imagine It Was Us" by Jessie Ware
Saw this babe face at the Opera House Saturday night and god damn it if she wasn't just an adorable lil Brit diva. The video for this Julio Bashmore produced track shows off her disco queen status nicely, as she glitters amongst a dancing crowd of circus club kids. If you're having a drab Monday this is sure to add a little shine to it.
