SHINee (샤이니) - "Sherlock•셜록 (Clue + Note)" Music Video

Did ya hear the news, ShaWols? "SHINee's BACK!" ;)

So I'm still not sold 100% on the Sherlock mini-album (iTunes), but I do love a few of the songs - "Stranger", "Note", and this here song "Sherlock" (resulting from the best parts of the song "Note" + the best parts of the less powerful song "Clue") IS a good one...

What this song & video have going for them (:

• It's got a catchy hook and the horn instrumentation is great
• You can tell the boys love singing and dancing to it
• The dancing is (of course / in true SHINee style) AMAZING! - JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT ELBOWS-OUT, KICKSTEP SWAGGER DURING THE CHORUS!!!

• There's a cute bull terrier in the video - but WHY does that bull terrier have road rash on his face? Has he been fighting? I want to hug him and take him away from the SHINee World that has left him scarred and battered!

• The art direction of the video / the "Rooms"
• MINHO. Nuff Said.

Minho's JEANS (DAMMMNNN BOY?!)

Taemin's top hat (Not a T.O.P hat, unfortunately ;)

• Key waggin' her finger all over the place like she's Beyonce or something

*SPOILER ALERT!* Jessica from SNSD (Girls' Generation / 소시) is the 'elusive' ghost who leads the Hardy Boys to the jewellllssss!!!

Things in this video that make you go "Hmmm":

• SHINee's acting

• TAEMIN'S HAIR = WTF x 1,000,000,000 !?

• Key waggin' her finger all over the place like she's Beyonce or something

Overall, we give this song/video a solid  4.5/5                 ^____^

The MV:

All's well that ends well!

COROCET DJ GIG @ Bedlam for Pants Dance Presents: APRIL TROUSERS on 4/29/11

Hey y'all

I'll be DJing this Friday (4/29) at the new-ish bar Bedlam on Avenue C (betw. 3rd and 4th st.).

2-FOR-1 WELL DRINKS from 10:30-11:30

My set goes from 1:15-2ish

You can expect to hear a very Pop- and Electropop-centric set... some Britney, maybe some Kylie, probably lots of new YELLE because I'm obsessed with Safari Disco Club and will be heading to see her live the next day (LiveNation Tickets for Saturday the 30th, YELLE @ Irving Plaza, NYC).

Tell your mom, tell your sister, tell her boyfriend too. It's gonna be a fun night!

Announcement RE: Darkroom Tuesdays

Dear Readers:

I write with a heavy heart to let you all know that beginning with tonight's installment, I am no longer directly involved with The Darkroom on Tuesday nights.

Though I will be continuing on as a semi-regular DJ at the Darkroom and all over NYC, neither my blog Blow Up The Water Cooler nor my @Corocet Twitter account will be spearheading the effort in terms of booking talent, promoting, and managing the weekly event.

For what it's worth, Daddy got a pretty wicked (good) day job that (for now) requires travel and energy beyond what I'm able to manage if I were to keep on putting this party out every week. DJ Dooga AKA Adrian is going to continue on as Tuesday night promoter extraordinaire, and I expect some serious parties to result from this switch.

Until we party again you can continue to follow me on Twitter and subscribe here for updates on music, fiction, events, news, UFOs/ETs, fashion, book reviews, and anything else that strikes my fancy.

XOXO (or as MIA would say XXXO),

Corocet

BUTWC Presents: My Little Party with House of Stank - Tuesday 5/11

This Tuesday at the Darkroom. Will. Be. Epic. We're going a little bit New York, a little bit Chicago...

Blow Up The Water Cooler first came across House Of Stank a few months ago. I instantly fell in love with their track "Get Up, Yeah!" because it sounded so fresh and so clean like much of the modern stuff that's around now... but what I REALLY loved was how it reminded of me of my old partying days in the Chicago house & rave scene back in the late 90's/early 2000's. Flash forward 6 months to last Thursday when I heard Christy Love & W. Jeremy from House Of Stank DJ for my friends Jason & Chaz ("The Beat" is their monthly. Check it out! :) Suffice to say their set at Fat Baby blew my mind; I booked them that same night LOL

We are UEBER,SUPER-DUPER excited for you to hear the intoxicating HOS sound. I KNOW you will instantly fall in love with their mix of oldschool jack and newschool flavor.

Resident DJs
DJ Dooga
and
COROCET
will be warming up the crowd and keeping things gravy.

The always lovely RICARDO will be behind the bar.
