This mixtape is probably the closest I'll ever get to attempting to start a dance party. (If you've been paying attention the first one was about squiggly noises, the next was about the horrible death-slash-transcendent ascendance of humanity. That's more my style.)
Mixtape 2: Funky by AHB's Teenage Kicks
Reading Arcade as an outsider—an east coaster among west coasters (I think you're all west coasters?), a non-academic among academics—it sometimes seems as if there is a rich, offline soil in which the conversations that go on here flower and grow. A soil that is unavailable to an east coaster pounding Manhattan concrete.
In case my imagination has anything to do with reality, maybe you'll consider playing this at your next dance party. On soil. Consider the fact that it might be better to have a dance party on concrete. A bit easier to do your best moves.
What was I talking about? Huh, sort of lost the thread there. Damn you internet!
