If I ever wrote a song and ever had a rock band once again and ever made a YouTube video .. I think I would also want to have some sort of choreographed dancing with hundreds of people just for the heck of it .. just like Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video, or Asaf Avidan & the Mojos “Hangwoman” video

I saw this video posted in the comments of a post for Vintage (SFW) Porn Posters from the 1960’s and it peaked my curiosity in DJ Benny Benassi. This song is a tribute to cult porn movies of the ’70s (according to his website)

Janis Ian - At Seventeen - Then & Now

call HART crazy .. but

A friend of mine with a music and other trivia blog, emailed me a 2-second bit of song and I (think) it was Janis Ian .. who did “At Seventeen”. I liked that song! I remember seeing a version on an early Saturday Night Live show and it was really soft and quiet, but you could still hear the emotion in the song. Looking for it on YouTube .. I couldn’t find that particular show… but I did find these. Enjoy~

Summer Sun - KOOP

call HART crazy .. but

This is an interesting song. It sung by Yukimi Nagano who is just a dreamy vocalist, but not really part of the “band”. Actually - there is no band .. it’s just two people from Sweden that are doing pretty amazing stuff with sounds.

From their website

Personnel

Koop is Magnus Zingmark & Oscar Simonsson. When listening to Koops music it’s somehow easy to believe that it’s played by a small orchestra, but in fact the music is based on samples. Thousands of small clips from records puzzled together into new songs. All the drums, strings, horn sections and choires are actually sampled! This is a very time consuming way to make music (it’s one of the reasons it takes such long time to make a koop album), but it’s the only way to create the surreal Koop sound. One thing though, that for sure aren’t sampled, is the vocals. Many singers has blessed the Koop albums with their talent, and on Koop Islands the singers are : Yukimi Nagano, Ane Brun, Hilde-Louise Asbjornsen,Rob Gallagher and Mikael Sundin. Some fine musicians has also participated on the album playing solos, percussion and bass. Those are : Mattias Ståhl, Magnus Lindgren, Karl Frid, Nils Berg, Martin Höper, Ola Bothzén, Dan Berglund and Mats Lindfors. When playing live Koop transforms into a 7-9 piece swing orchestra including one or two singers, and the main mission is to make people move their feet. The line-up may vary from time to time so if you are looking for the personel on a specific concert please dont hesitate to drop a message on myspace. Koop them selves plays piano/accordion (Oscar), sampler (Magnus), and wear dresses.
