NEW PODCAST ALERT:
CAT DISCO!

Have you ever seen Jingle Cats? It’s totally bizarre and very psychedelic and just downright fun. It looks like it belongs on an episode of Tim & Eric’s Awesome Show Great Job but it’s no joke this is the real deal. This was my inspiration for creating CAT DISCO. Except replace xmas music with dance music, get rid of the meowing (trust me that’s a good thing) and imagine what a disco jingle cats DVD might look like. If they won’t make one then I may just make one myself!

Enjoy

JINGLE CATS: OK this is just kind of scary. Jingle Cats continues to shock and amaze me with it’s trippy visuals and good old fashioned authentic cheesyness.

Electro was a sound from the late 70s, 80s and even 90s that I had liked and listened to but would never think of “playing it out”. The sound was dated, and the beat was not hard or fast enough I thought. I think it was a combination of this “new” electronica that was actually quite retro inspired and very hip in the underground / alternative club scene (fisherspooner, miss kitten & the hacker, felix da housecat, peaches, DJ Hell) with the return of POP MUSIC all the time on every radio station and even in CLUBS. Brittney, Kylie, Spice Girls, etc. I absolutely detest this pop music and hated it even more because it was very electronic and danceable as it was assimilating the style of “Electro”. So before my rambling continues: This mix album is my dissection of the modern day pop star. A Sexy Robot, mannequins, brainless bodies, beauty and
