First of all - go download Little Dragon’s original “Twice” from their self-titled album. It has been one of my most played songs for about two months.
Secondly, I sifted through a bunch of very bad remixes to find this pretty good one. It’s the Aaron Jerome Remix. I sort of feel like you need to listen to the original first before you can really sink into this remix, but I can’t force you to do anything. Do whatever you want, the song is yours now.

The only thing kids love more than explosive diarrhea is a controlled demolition. [thanks, s]

"The Imperial Phase" Poptimist on Pitchfork
This article is really interesting. It’s essentially about that grace period when an artist reaches the “I can do whatever I want to do - and people want me to do it” apex of their career.
Also - wasn’t Queen fucking awesome? Freddy Mercury. I’ve just been going through all my old Queen records this weekend. Totally insane! Best of the best.
Have a great weekend!
