NOT THE CSS THAT MAKES MY WEBSITE LOOK WEIRD



Out yesterday on Sup Pop is the new album from Brazil's CSS, Cansei De Ser Sexy. The electro poppers are out on tour now with fellow Brazilians, the bootlegging Bonde do Role as well as everybody's friend Diplo, playing the Varsity in Minneapolis on July 31. It's one of the few shows I'm looking forward to this summer.

A few links for more info, including a post at Fluokids featuring a bunch of remixes:

I have been getting tired of waiting to post some Cansei De Ser Sexy material. They were one of my favourite discoveries of my time in Brazil, and I think that if there is any justice in this world, they will be absolutely enormous one day.

That whole "World Cup" thing aside, this week is a big one for Brazil. Two of the country's most enjoyable musical exports of late, CSS and Bonde Do Role, are embarking upon a nationwide tour with a noted dinosaur DJ friend of ours...

Patchy and uninspiring debut from Sao Paulo disco punks and Diplo pals.

It's a bit hard to remember now that the entire world seems to be either on Diplo's dick or vehemently dismissing everything the guy has ever touched as opportunistic trash, but there was something truly exciting about Hollertronix's Never Scared mix...
