Road trip! On August 27th, Blow Up Forever goes down at the legendary Factory in San Francisco, with EPR acts Glass Candy and Poolside on the bill, along with friends like Cosmic Kids, Classixx, Acid Girls, Plastic Plates, and many more. This show kicks off Glass Candy’s West Coast tour, which coincides with the release of their new single “Warm In The Winter.” This will also be the first gig in San Francisco for Poolside, who’ll be performing material off their debut album. We’ll be making the drive up the 5 to take part in this party (and to get a slice at Goldenboy), so we think you should, too. Tickets are available here.
It’s been a busy summer for Italians Do It Better majordomo Mike Simonetti: in addition to his latest edit 12″ (“I’m Gettin’ Too Old For This Shit”) and the Perseo release of his set staple “Hollywood 7,” his debut release of original material, “Capricorn Rising,” is out now. Praised by Pitchfork for its mix of “mesmerizing chill-out disco” and “pulse-raising electronics,” the EP’s first song, the Sam Sparro-featuring “Third of the Storms,” has a video that’s just premiered. Watch it below and download (if you haven’t already!) Mike’s mix that he made for our Exitos series.

We’ve had to keep our traps shut about this for a while now, so we’re very happy to be able to announce that both Chromatics and Desire have music in the new film Drive. Starring Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Albert Brooks, Christina Hendricks, and Ron Perlman and directed by Nicolas Winding Refn (who won Best Director at Cannes for the film), Drive is excellent, a modern take on LA noir that is thrilling and surprising. This is not the first time the music of the Italians familia has appeared in one of Nic’s films: Glass Candy’s “Digital Versicolor” makes an appearance in his 2008 film Bronson. In Drive, updated versions of “Under Your Spell” by Desire and “Tick of the Clock” by Chromatics appear both in the film and on the soundtrack, and “Tick” is also featured in the trailer. Check out a scene from the movie that features “Tick” below and be sure to head over to Italians image blog Primitive Desire for drawings that Chromatics and Desire did of the film.
GODDOLLARS – the Kenny Bania of house music, the resident rhythm wrestler at Rhonda – heads south this weekend to help repair the fractured border relations between the U.S. and Mexico. On Saturday night, he’ll be doing community service in Tijuana at La Chupiteria (and later at Adelita’s), and on Sunday he tutors high-income youth poolside at the W Hotel in Bland Diego. Let go and let GODDOLLARS.
