Une fête du danse tecktonique...

I have probably showed many the video of Spoke en Mode (or at least that is what I have decoded his name to be from my journies through the French comments left underneath this video on youtube and its French and Lithuanian counterparts), a dancer that I feel embodies the "tecktonic" dance craze that is said to be sweeping Paris. Since I have not seen this first hand, I thought I would show you this video of Spoke en Mode, instead of attempting to explain this amazing style of dance that just makes me want to move my whole body. To make matters ten times better, I also was able to track down the song from the video, which is incredible. You can listen to the song directly here. Or download it...

p.s. Having a techno dance party and short a DJ? No problem! Hit up discobelle, a blog that I just found that is really great for techno mixes and weird underground rap mixes. I highly suggest the Hollywood Holt Mixtape, a special mix that Daft Punk did for a Louis Vuitton runway show (check out the video on that page as well), as well as Calabria 2007 (Hatchmatik Clubabria Remix), which is a version of a song that was really popular when we were in Europe. For longer DJ sets, check out the mixes section of the site, which has tons of recordings of live DJ sets that are from 45 minutes to an hour long. This blog is super prolific, with almost five posts a day, so enjoy and explore...

p.p.s. Shout out to my roommate Ian & James Harris, who found this guy years ago...
