#I Created Disco

[aeolianblues]

A bit uncharacteristic of me, but I’m vibing so hard with 2007 Calvin Harris, I was reminded of that album today and first up, you’ve just got to spend a full 5 minutes laughing at the album title: I Created Disco. You already know this is going to be an album of fun and shenanigans. Completely unserious album. That’s fine, that’s fun, I’ve got time for it. I’m taking out the trash and just bouncing down the stairs because I’m vibing to retro disco from 2007. The first thing you hear as you put it on, “Merry making, drug taking at my place baby, at my place”, completely unserious, carry on. Very ‘let the words paint and exciting picture’ vibe and it’s giving ‘Daft Punk is playing at my house’.

Second, you forget that Calvin Harris even had a real infectious indie phase. I associate him right now with working on production for some of the world’s biggest pop stars making the sort of radio hits I would simply not listen to. But this one, like I said, quite in that indie nightclub vibe and like bands like LCD Soundsystem. Forget the Strokes, this is the facade of sheer excess that ‘indie sleaze’ wants to remember. It’s a banger of a silly, fun album. And it’s definitely going to become new bed music for my radio show— or I’ll try anyway, the lyrics are super clear, which again makes it that bit more indie to me. Love it.

You can’t not just shake your shoulders to it, that’s the energy I want to bring back. Everyone’s talking ‘2000s nostalgia’, ‘Y2K fashion’ blah blah blah but then still dressing like it’s depression season. ‘Now it’s all very well stepping out in black and white/But you’re no girlfriend of mine if you’re doing that, right?/Get some colours on.’ <- exactly, the 00s were about stupidly colourful fits. Wear those neons. Put on those wristbands. Many clips. Purple and orange leggings, red trousers. Turquoise skirt on top of that, there we go. Everyone’s forgetting how embarrassingly colourful it all was. If you really want to go back to the 00s, dress like my mum would dress me when I was 8.

Those colours were acceptable in the 00s ;)

Calvin Harris In Bed With Everyday Objects

Trying to get used to Tumblr. Here is quite a rare interview with Calvin Harris by The Guardian, who seemed quite cool with him even though they shat on his music.

Steam should come with a warning when you try to install Disco Elysium that says "this will irrevocably change your life for the better, but you will never find anything as good as this again"

Jean angst is soooooo funny. "im sad that you forgot about me but I will make every possible choice to be an unhelpful asshole and prevent you from actually remembering shit"

Hi????

This is simultaneously great and so, so unexpected! Calvin Harris with a full band, performing at Radio 1's Big Weekend in 2007 up in Preston. To think he could have gone down the indie rock band route!

This is also why I think of his early days as most adjacent to LCD Soundsystem rather than dance and EDM musicians. It could've been fun, too bad he doesn't quite associate with this anymore and requested it be taken down.

i think kim adores harry so so much and loves being sillies with him. i think they deserve little sleepovers together where they are just giggling and kicking their feet. they get in a tickle fight and as harry is hyperfocused on winning through the combined might of the furies, kim is like "i have never felt so so loved".
