forbidden cocktails all round




while dancing my socks off last night and making up words to all the songs I didn’t know, I thought how much fun it would be to live my life in a strobe light.

well, not so much if I had epilepsy…

but there’s something about the jerky flashing of the light that gives me a drunken giddy feeling that makes me smile. and when everything starts to move in real time again, i’m slightly disappointed.

kinda like the feeling i get when listening to culture prophet’s remix of cof cof’s dirty tricks or we have band’s oh!

strobe lighting is probably the best thing about country nightclubs: a nifty trick used by the crappy djs that can’t seem to get the hang of making a smooth transition between their equally crappy songs.

when they start to lose the crowd, they just flick a switch and everyone goes mad again.

but back to cof cof.

this spanish duo, with their synthy dance pop, are just so much FUN.

their debut “who said party?” is available for free download on their myspace (www. myspace. com/cuadralogica), just one in a long list of reasons to love them.

another being the fact that they list “beer before making music” as their influence, something that's clear from their lyrics.

forbidden cocktail is a typical night for... oooh, just about everyone I know.

And doesn't caribbean boy's "i think i drunk too much but this thing must be love" sound oddly familiar?
