What a wonderful weekend. Had lots of opportunity to hang out with Madelyn and Coral. We did some swimming, record shopping, thrift-storing (now a verb!) and coffee stops. Saturday night was the co-op pre-school fundraiser. Being the resident DJ Dad in the school, I got the gig of jamming the tunes. I’ll tell ya, that was a night. These folks went hard and raged it. Lots of Moms having a couple and getting weirdly close-talky to request Flo Rida cuts…should be an interesting Tuesday morning dropping Maddy off.
The night had good energy. I think any party where the beer comes in a can and the wine comes in a box will end well. Coral bounced a little early to hit the Acres of Lions show and I rushed there as soon as I could to hear the last four or five songs. Wild.
Also on the weekend I got to punch up M83 on the modern rock countdown. It was fantastic to get a flood of positive reaction from Zoners jiving on the cut, “Midnight City”.

The album Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming came out last fall… but as often happens with these things, sometimes it takes some time for the great songs to reverberate.
The song “Midnight City” is moving up the modern rock charts in the US pretty fiercely, propelled by its Phoenix-esque hazy vintage synth sounds.
Like an good electronic jingle… there is a remix. Check out this one.
