Surfing On A Rocket (Remix)

The Juan MacLean have done an awesome extended remix of Air's "Surfing On A Rocket" for the 12" single -- fortunately the kind folks at Astralwerks are streaming it too. REAL.

UPDATE: I might like this No Mo Heroes remix even more. REAL.

To west coast readers: So Air, Stereolab, and Sondre Lerche are at the Hollywood Bowl on 9/26, all performing with the LA Philharmonic? That sounds cool. Someone go and review it for us! Also, photogs in Brentwood should stop fucking with Mary-Kate. MK we gots yo back.

The No Mo Heroes remix is infinitely better.

i heard the show at the bowl was air, stereolab and phoenix, not sondre lerche.

i'm thinking of going, but all i can afford are $3 nosebleed seats.

I plan on going so I'll try and take some notes and pictures, although I'll probably be in the nosebleed seats as well. This has the potential to be a really good show. I've never seen Air, but I love Stereolab and have seen them a bunch of times.

i got some tickets for the super seats. not necessarily nose bleed, but not close enough to grab photos with a phone.

remixing air songs seems to be quite trendy right now....check out "alpha beta gaga (mark ronson mix)", thats a great one.

and i totally agree that they should stop fucking around with MK. i can relate to her past eating disorder problems and its not fun shit to have people all in your business when youre trying to overcome as big a problem as that. love to the olsens.
