It List: Monday 9/25/06

Supersystem/ Zombi/ Flashlight Party DJs (Hailey's): The artists formerly known as El Guapo bring their DFA influenced dance electropop stuff to Hailey's tonight. To me, Supersystem is a pretty good singles band. I really like "Born into the World," as well as a couple of other songs off their first album and the more recent one, which I don't think has been released yet. Maybe it has, I don't know. Do release dates even really matter anymore? Anyway, I don't think their albums are as consistent as they could be, but I bet that they are a lot of fun to see live, and they are obviously very skilled musicians who will probably permit their songs to come through nicely in a live setting. Zombi also sounds great: new romantic pop, Night Rider, early acid house and Italo disco all seem to be good reference points for this Pittsburgh group, and I have a feeling that you'll want to check them out too. And be sure to show up early for Flashlight Party, who will be playing:

"a bundle of new shit from over seas, so we'll be playing lots of new stuff from: sebastiAn, vitalic, and aufken (all super good french shit) and remixes from lcd soundsystem, phoenix, hot chip and the rapture. get there."

Those who can't make it out to Denton can also check out Jazz Night at Amsterdam. I'm pretty sure drinks are cheap there on Mondays, and the musicians that show up to play are all fantastic. Always a very chill time.
