DISAVOW THE PLEASURE

August 11, 2010

If you don’t already know, The Twelves are a Brazilian electro-pop duo that have been making waves in the indie world for their energetic remixes of blog buzz artists like The Black Kids, The Virgins, Radiohead, and Metric. They are technically flawless, and their DJ sets have built them quite a nice cult following. I am lucky enough to get to see them at U St. Music Hall tonight (tix available here) along with ATG favorite Will Eastman, and you should absolutely come out if you live in the D.C. area. Ever since the duo dropped a dirty remix of M.I.A.’s “Boyz” back in 2007, they have been steadily building a stable of remixes that, in my opinion, trump the originals in most cases. Check out their take on Radiohead and The Black Kids, and go see them tonight.

MP3: Radiohead – “Reckoner (The Twelves Remix)”
MP3: The Black Kids – “I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You (The Twelves Remix)”

July 30, 2010

The time has come! All Things Go presents the first of hopefully many dance parties hosted by our good friends over at U St. Music Hall this Thursday, August 5th. Those in attendance will be treated to the sounds of DJ Che$t Rockwell, who some of you may remember as our guest writer Nick Cafritz, and DJ Chris Collins. Tickets are $8 at the door, and $5 with Facebook RSVP. This is the beginning of a new era for All Things Go. We are getting more involved in the D.C. area and you’ll see some serious changes around these here parts, beginning with these events and continuing with the site remodeling (which is underway as I write this). GET READY.

RSVP for the event and save $3 RIGHT HERE!!!!!!

Just to give you a taste, I can pretty much guarantee that you’ll hear a heavy dosage of these three jams:

MP3: Yolanda Be Cool & Dcup – “We No Speak Americano”
MP3: Will Smith – “Miami (Laidback Luke Remix)”
MP3: Wynter Gordon – “Dirty Talk (Laidback Luke Remix)”

Thanks to Derek from Neon Gold for designing the poster.
