les musiques que j'aime

Tonight, i'll be deejaying at The Kooks after-party at double happiness. I really like this band, and i'll be talking some more about them after attending their show in brooklyn this saturday.

If you're a little bit fashion obsessed like myself, you probably already know that Karl Lagerfeld has compiled a double-disc CD of his favorite songs (for shows and home listening). I remember a few years back, looking through an issue of ID Magazine and finding hundreds of bands and songs listed from Karl's ipod (or rather one of his ipods, since he allegedly owns over 70 of them). He had everything from commercial to obscure to Mommy and daddy! I think Vivian was the one who pointed it out to me, since there were so many bands listed. Needless to say i was impressed. Just as i'm impressed with this eclectic track list...
