To mark our newly redesigned “movies” section, we just posted our beach volleyball classic Fun’s Over!

Funzo’s the first movie we made that follows the SciFi-cuz-we-say-it-is-logic that we’re elaborating all over the place on Halloween Face. It’s also the first appearance of Ball Deep superstar Kozmo.

Enjoy!

NOTE: There actually weren’t any teen ho’s there Friday. I’m just thinking of a party in Lancaster this Summer where there were. And they were all up on me.

More on my dream-come-true experience last Friday:

1. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures. Maybe that’s for the best. I think I’d belong on 60 Minutes posting photos of teens. But it was exactly like this.

2. I can’t overstate how great the Cxmbr1dge Sch00l is. If god-forbid I ever live near Boston, I’ll definitely send my kids there. Everyone’s so smart, mature, articulate and friendly. Maybe I’m imagining it, but the palpable aura of fear I felt in High School just doesn’t seem to be there.

Like:
3. Boys danced with boys! And girls danced with girls (in not-slutty ways)!

4. My favorite part of the night (ok, besides when Brian broke out his moves for the kids and they chanted his name):

STUDENT: This is…um…you don’t happen to have the Fast and Furious 3 soundtrack - Teriyaki Boys?
ME: Um…actually…

5. Promise? Not huge like I expected. Hey Ya, though, still works like magic. Vans and We Fly High: bigtime sing alongs. And you just can’t underestimate Akon’s hugeness. I played three songs, and that was like bare-minimum.

6. I got a request for Ratatat. So that’s that.

7. And I dunno. Those kids are just great. Plus Shakespeare…man…
Thanks again Brian. Kids, good luck with Macbeth.

P.S. So this isn’t a dead-end of a post internet-wise: DJ Afro’s mix over at NYremezcla is real good.

Obviously this adds up to no big deal in any way. But yesterday I had an — i dunno — uncanny experience reading this month’s Teen Vogue. In their “Fashion Trends from A to Z” section they recommend an MP3 for every letter of the alphabet, and whoever is writing that thing is waaaaaay keyed into the same thing as me.

I mean: Egyptian Lover - Freak-a-holic, Vanity 6 - Make Up, Heaven 17 - Temptation (Original Demo(?!)). So what right? a hipster works at a fashion magazine. And including Ratatat on the list — oh, it’s a Brooklyn hipster. Klaxons - Magick (SMD remix), well we read the same blogs.

But, come on — The Plantains - I Feel Love? They played like 5 shows! 5 years ago!

Whatever. Its just that I like to think that I read Teen Vogue for exoticism, and am surprised to recognize so much of myself in it. But then I guess that bodes very well for my plans for next Friday.

ok,
DJ Hot Donna
