I'm not entirely sure that a minute and thirty second commercial for Peugeot was really dreamed up on Madison Ave.

Both Simian albums are fantastic. 'Chemistry is What We Are' is a bit slower than 'We Are Your Friends' but just as wispy and frenetic.

I'm surprised though that the Mobile Disco project's first hit was a remix of the title track from 'We Are Your Friends' which was rockin as is. Why didn't they start with something new.

At least they made Kanye angry.

Loves me some Simian.

But I think you missed the boat by including "When I Go" instead of "Helpless" or "In Between," which are two superior tracks from that record IMO.

But yeah, "La Breeze" is a given. Here's a tip from me to you: find a friend with a really thoom-y car (lots of sub-bass delicousness) and listen to "La Breeze" as loud as you dare.

Trust me.
