“Midnight City” Acoustic Audience Sing-Along with The Knocks

Last night, The Knocks had some technical difficulties in the middle of their set last night during PopScene at the Rickshaw Stop in San Francisco. While the audience waited, Mr. JPatt (half of the Knocks) played an acoustic version of their cover of M83’s “Midnight City.” He said that since Mandy Lee (the singer in their cover) wasn’t with them, the audience would have to sing.

No one knew the words, but everyone knew the boops.

A couple people behind my friend and me were convinced the first line was “waiting in a car.”

Electro Beats are Robot Heartbeats

A few minutes ago, I was listening to M83’s “Midnight City” and some Savoir Adore tracks, specifically “Dreamers” and the Yes Giantess remix of “We Talk Like Machines.”

I realized that electro beats are robot heartbeats and thought about the giant light cube at Creator’s Project a couple weekends ago.

And then I almost started crying.
