Show me the night!!! Yeah, I’ve been loving this song by electro-rock duo Jump Jump Dance Dance! And then come to find out there’s a music video? A well executed music video directed by Claire Carré of Partizan? I need to keep on top of my game; this one almost crept by me.
Also… You’re going to want to grab the Grum remix for this song. Jump Jump Dance Dance - Show Me The Night (Grum Remix)
Jeeze yall’ i’ve never had so much fun putting together a mix before. Searching for tracks was the easy part this time around; narrowing them down to 10? Very difficult… it’s like they were all Fire. I guess it’s just that time of the year again; everyone’s ready to put winter to bed, set fire to the sky, and dance their way through summer’s end. Very well, so be it!
Diligent Dance: March 2010 Mixtape
This video is pretty on the mark if I do say so myself. My favorite elements were the projection mappings, they definitely put this over the top. Animation on it’s own doesn’t excite me much… but when it’s done well I can really appreciate it! I am, however, a big fan of geometrics, especially when set to bomb ass electronic music. I dabbled with visuals & projections a while back but never could commit myself; Too tedious! And the stuff I was attempting had nothing on this! Watch the making of this video you’ll see what I mean.
Directed by Nobody Beats the Drum’s VJ Rogier van der Zwaag
By far, these mixtapes are the most trafficked posts on my blog. So I thought this would be an opportune time to get a pulse on who’s visiting my site; and to kinda open up a dialog so this doesn’t seem like such a one way conversation.
Everything in life doesn’t necessitate a comment and I have aversions to commenting on posts myself, but I’d like it very much if you could announce who you are and maybe a little something about yourself. Questions and/or critiques of my mixtapes and anything else are welcome too! If you’d rather not, that’s ok too!
Anyhow, without further ado…

Die Antwoord (The Answer) hails from Cape Town, South Africa and I’m not sure if he/they’re blowing up over there but I sure hope so! It’d be great to import some more of this “next level shit.” Give it chance, trust me… at 1:07 it gets real serious! Hat tip to DJ Skeet Skeet
My favorite quote from the comments!
