Just a friendly reminder to set your alarm clocks for this coming Thursday, Dec 3 when La Blogotheque, one of the most beloved music blogs of all time, will release a very special performance by breakout artist of the year Phoenix.  By the looks of the teaser they will perform under the Eiffel Tower.  A more perfect stage for the French power pop group does not exist.  Check back Thursday for the full session.

posted on 30.10.09 Calvin Harris, Miami Horror - Music Videos of the Week

I was pretty stoked when I ran across this video today for the new Calvin Harris single Flashback, definitely one of my favorite finds of the day.  The song is very catchy, well constructed and sure to be a dance floor killer.

Calvin Harris - Flashback (Eric Prydz Remix)

I also recently became engrossed by a new sound coming from Miami Horror, who also just dropped a new single and artful video to go along with it.  Look out for the full album soon.

I caught the Miike Snow (click for all BDN coverage) show in ‘The City’ earlier this week, and Jack Peñate put on a fun opening set. It is also worth noting Miike Snow stopped using an autotuner in their live performances.

Jack Peñate has definitely got an eccentric British musician thing going on, as revealed in his videos below. The ‘Pull My Heart Away’ video was shot in the same location as Indian Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc - And who doesn’t love that?

Remember when MTV actually played music videos, ones that you even liked?  Well, in memory of the many things that have come and gone (R.I.P. Mike) we’ve saved you the effort of trying to find MTV 8 on the TV and will be showcasing a short playlist of handpicked music videos we appreciate.

Week 1:

Big Sean - Getcha Some (Dir. Hype Williams) : Fresh visuals paired with a catchy track off the upcoming album “Finally Famous” (look for Kanye)

Miike Snow - Burial : Great video, will get your travel bug itching

Kyle Andrews - Sushi : Fun song, funner video.  Click on the video at any time and it will link you to one of over 1000 youtube jems that were used to create the mosaic, the ultimate youtube time waster.

Empire of the Sun - We Are The People : Same poppy sound, same crazy outfits, now in the desert.

Birdy Nam Nam - Parachute Ending : Visually amazing, highly creative interpretation of the song, just stay off any drugs while watching, may lead to a seizure.

-If you have any video suggestions or want to see your own music video here, let us know!-
