Baby, YOU'RE a hot mess

Because I'm really great at starting something, giving up, picking it up again only just to give up, I thought I'd give the blog another try. I'm terrible at the follow through, so here goes nothing. I feel like I don't even really have anything to say through my marijuana fueled haze that I've been living in. I know. It sounds rough, but I'm managing.

I want to change the name of this thing, but something worthwhile currently escapes me. So, for now, West Coast Wonders will remain. I don't know. We'll see what happens.

Since this has all been a lot of nothing, I'll leave you with some good tunes to enjoy. I'll begin reallocating my abundance of free time toward random internet musings so that I can share them here. Deal? Deal!

Chromeo's Hot Mess



Now, check out the redux version of this song featuring Elly Jackson of La Roux. You can listen and download it right HERE.

Also, check this out. It's Sam Sparro performing his song Hot Mess live on some Danish radio show. It's a completely different song, but they're both great, so enjoy.

Artist of the Day: Sam Sparro!!!

So. I am aware that I am a little late on the Sam Sparro (Australian born/ Los Angeles-based) bandwagon, as his self-titled debut album came out in 2008 with singles appearing in 2007. However, I just had the recent pleasure of learning about the fabulousness that is Sam Sparro, and I thought that everyone else should know about him as well. His music is electro-pop, and his music videos do not disappoint. Sparro was also featured on Basement Jaxx's Feelings Gone, which was released in September 2009. Literally, everything that he does is great, so check out some of his music videos below, and check out his whole album if you like what you hear!








And, it is also necessary that you check out his videos for Black & Gold and 21st Century Life. Since his record label, Island Records, posted these two, the embedding has been disabled. Other notable songs are Pocket and Hot Mess, but I truly enjoy the whole album. If you like Calvin Harris, you'll love Sam Sparro!
