Stones Throw x Fool’s Gold take over Rotture 8/14

Because A-trak knows what’s good for a dance-floor, he got a bunch of his buddies together for a series of evenings across the country called the Stones Throw x Fool’s Gold: Discotheque. The Rules: Strictly Disco-Boogie and House Music.
I had the pleasure of attending this past weekend in Chicago and all I can say is, what an epic line-up. Although this will change a little from date-to-date, the core elements in DJ sets by Stones Throw’s Peanut Butter Wolf, and Fool’s Gold’s A-Trak make the journey. Portland’s Line up is as follows:
A-Trak
Nacho Lovers
Peanut Butter Wolf
J Rocc
Check out some photos from last night after the jump, and consider this your motivation to make the show this coming Saturday. After Chromeo Friday, and this show Saturday, I fully expect to hear about some hellish hangovers.

We’d be embarrassed if you knew how often Chromeo was mentioned on this site (plz don’t use the search function to find out), but we’d be equally embarrassed if you knew how many times we’d seen em live. Try every time they’ve ever played Portland. Try more than a few times out of town on top of that. By themselves, they do things to us we reserve solely for the dance floor, but with the group they have going on tour right now… well forgive us if we’re even more excited than usual.
THIS LINE-UP SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.
Chromeo//Holy Ghost//Telephoned//RUDE DUDES (Full disclosure: Our best buddies!)
Make the jump to see and hear about a million more reasons you probably shouldn’t miss this show.
UPDATE: Official After Party @ Tube with Holla + Oates & Sammy Bananas (Free with stub, or $3).

It is the most fitting combination and somehow I did not see it coming, Treasure Fingers and Chromeo!
Glossy sleaze meets glossy sleaze in a single I would qualify more as a cover then a remix. Almost identical song structure with the signature Dave 1 voice. Can we expect this to be a future tour lineup?
Treasure Fingers- Cross the Dance Floor (Chromeo Remix)
Coachella always pulls out pop groups from the eighties to reunite and everyone always goes from absolutely no care for the group to full fledged hysteria, often without even remembering the words to the songs. The only problem with this is that the world is running out of bands to reunite. This is why I am guessing Duran Duran may be gracing our favorite hundred degree stage soon.
So here is a song to get reunited with, now with a nice little electro kick courtesy of 33HZ.
Duran Duran- Tempted (33 HZ Remix)
I am not very impressed by the new Britney single but I could not help from posting it due to an amazingly named remix by electronic legend Tommie Sunshine.
Britney Spears-Womanizer (Tommie Sunshine’s ‘Holy Shit, The Economy Is Fucked’ Re-Rub)
MGMT has been ruling the blog world due to college students loving indy music and the fact that Justice did a remix. Also this is one of those strange occasions where the public seems perfectly fine with two great singles and the rest of the album being mediocre. Well make that three hits thanks to DFA’s highly dependable Holy Ghost! taking this and turning it more Hot Chip then Peter Bjorn and John.
Of Moons, Birds & Monsters (Holy Ghost! Remix)

I occasionally DJ under the moniker “DJ Countzero” and occasionally my moniker half makes mixes for general public consumption. It has been a while in coming for this installment with most of my time lately being devoted to throwing a party rather then playing one. Come see me play at FUBAR the night before our party.
Track list after the jump jump.
End of summer jump mix- DJ Countzero
