This is the second video "Your Disco Song" that I have seen from my new favorite band Vitalic. I thought I should be my duty to share this hotness...

If you haven't heard of the Hood Internet, its about time
I have been listening to The Hood Internet now for almost a year. The Chicago Duo has been mashing up Hip Hop, Indie Rock, and Electronica in ways that fans of any of the genera would cringe. Really who mixes Ghostface Killer with Beirut? They do and with incredible success. The Hood Internet just dropped their fourth mixtape and I have had to listen to it at least once a day now for over two weeks. Its packed full of 100% original remixes.

Vitalic - Flash Mob - My Ears have been opened again...
Just when I thought I had heard it all, a group called Vitalic comes out of nowhere to literally leave me speechless. My friend Ryan described this group as the bastard son of Justice and Lindstrom... I was immediately intrigued by that description and downloaded the new album "Flashmob. (mini-mix audio :)" I had just enough time to transfer it over to my phone before going to the hawks game.
The hawks game turned into a night at Filter with George Acosta. The George Acosta set turned into a late night with friends. Around 3:30 am I remembered the Vitalic download from earlier and had Chris throw it on the surround sound. The first track, "See the Sea" start of with a glitched out sequence before the grimy baseline rolls through the track. I looked at Chris, Chris looked at Jorge, and Jorge looked at me. All three of us were speechless. After the three minute mark, the track breaks into a classic italio disco breakdown. We couldn't stop from dancing and smiling. Each track was more surprising than the previous. I have thought long and hard about how to describe Vitalic since Friday night but one word keeps coming back into my head, "EPIC."
