"Around the World/Harder Better Faster Stronger (Live)"
Daft Punk
"Alive 2007"

Unfortunately I couldn't cough up the $200 to see what has been described as quite possibly the grandest and mind-expanding concert/stunt/performance art/set piece in current pop music. Daft Punk is rock, rave, dance, disco, and lots of leather and lights in their laser beam accented recent live shows. The French dance duo's latest live album, "Alive 2007", sounds like they swallowed every hit ("One More Time", "Da Funk", "Face to Face", among many others) and upchucked something that truly embodies the dance spirit and frenetic genius that has become their trademark.


"Sensual Seducation"
Snoop Dogg
"Ego Trippin'"
dir., Melina

Is he sending up T-Pain and smooth r&b singers from the late 70s? I'm not sure and I don't care. The key-guitar, 80s computer graphics, and the "Under the Cherry Moon" era backup dancers are all okay with me.


"As Above, So Below (JUSTICE Remix)"
Klaxons

Sample The Doobie Brothers? Yes, yes, and more yes. This is easily one of the best remixes of the year.
