Oh My Ghent!!!
Its was kinda of magical, dont.contradict.us can tell. Let yourself be charmed...
Beats Of Love by VILLA Soundcloud
For the finale, we alert you about the coming of a music lord, encyclopedia and gold digger, of real sound surgeons. Dirk de Ruyck operates the decks of the Parisian club Chez Moune on Friday, October 1st. Creator of Eskimo which needs no introduction, co-owner of the new nevertheless important Abracada label, selector of choice at Alainfinkelkrautrock and manager of groups like Aeroplane, among others things...
Extra!
If you want to party in Belgium, we recommend the Libertine Supersport club led by the duo Mustang and Chris le Frog. The place is warmly welcoming and the line-up is quite rich.
dont.contradict.us wants to thank Belgium and the Belgians for the flow of love and madness that has been offered. We owe you one...
Oh My Ghent!!!

EDITO
dont.contradict.us took a long vacation, even a spiritual retreat to refine its approach and broaden its horizons. But also forming a new team, new players to give dont.contradict.us a stronger taste and look which matches us more closely.
dont.contradict.us is an idea, a thought, an act, a mean that wants to be in perpetual evolution; far away from what evokes its name literally, its goal will be to respond without imposing.
Without claiming awkwardly to bring "the unseen" in the blog world, we still want to add something which we hope will be very special and proudly inimitable .
What is now for us largely the best tool demonstrator of our talents will also have to be a wide field of discovery/rediscovery of what we love, what we transcend, without established order, without diktat and especially without being too pretentious.
We stress here the "too much" because we are lucid about the content of our megalo journalistic approach.
Apart from our point of view, that of our precious environment will punctuate the sections to individual desires, discoveries and encounters of each and everyone of us.
With insolence and lightness we talk about clothes, photography, places, festivals, art and as much as possible without being too serious...
Borrowed from the irreverent Talking Heads, our motto will now be "Stop Making Sense"... A motto that captures perfectly the spirit of dont.contradict.us...
Hoping that you will attend to each of our appointments...

Stay tuned... Hello darkness my old friend
I've recently re-watched Larry Clark's movies, and it's still the pool where I'd happily drown… Unfortunately, as it seems, ****** fairtilizer never heard of NOFX, Bad Religion, Pennywise, or even Chokebore… But, well… somehow those tunes remind me of a certain atmosphere and make me wanna stare at Joseph Szabo's book, Teenage Wildlife.
Stay tuned... Hello darkness my old friend

On stage... The Strange Boys
The Strange Boys will play at the Midi Festival, Villa Noailles - Hyères ( 23th to 25th of July) on the initiative of their scheduler Frédéric Landini. We can be sure that like the past years the selection will be excellent. Last thursday we went to see them at Point Ephémère. It was such a nice atmosphere, cool guys, great interaction with the audience,… The singer reminds me of Bob Dylan somehow, so when he started playing harmonica it was picture perfect!

Idle hands are the devil's workshop - Pyjama party at Prescription Cocktail Club
What's a cool thing to do on a Sunday, when you're either hungover from the night before or really bored out of your mind? Well you could go to a cool pyjama party! And guess what, that's what my friends and I did. There's this great cocktail club, sort of a secret place called "Prescription Cocktail Club". It's located rue Mazarine in Paris' 6th district and they make p.r.e.t.t.y. good cocktails... And guess what we all had, yes, Bloody Marys the perfect cure for a hangover!
For more information, checkout their fb page here.
Pyjama parties hosted by Chi Chi Menendez and David Piper.

On stage... WHY?
WHY? - These Hands / January Twenty Something from anticon. on Vimeo.
The band from Cincinnatti, Ohio will play in Paris on March 25th at La Maroquinerie. Before his first year in high school Jonathan Wolf called Yoni, discovered an old 4-track in his father's synagogue and began to experiment musically. Later, his brother Josiah and Doug McDiarmid joined his project to form WHY?… For their third LP Alopecia, they asked fans to contribute photographs of their palms for the album's artwork. It was released on March 11th, 2008 to very positive reviews, with The Hollows as the first single and the excellent These Few Presidents. Two different european and US versions of the single were released featuring remixes and covers by Boards of Canada, Xiu Xiu or Islands, … on their respective issues. On September 22th, 2009 they released their fourth LP, entitled Eskimo Snow, Yoni Wolf described those new songs as "the least hip-hop out of anything I've ever been involved with". They perform live with Andrew Broder (guitar) and Mark Erickson (bass).
Here is the video of the two first tracks of Eskimo Snow, These Hands and January Twenty Something, listen and enjoy...

Imagine all the People - Two supermodels, Two generations, One allure
The words jostle: statuesque, busty, sexy, devastating, subjugating.
I assume here and definitely my bias in her favor. I set her up today besides Eva, a moment of silence, please ... just to see Eva always so amazing after years of loyal service as the "#1 supermodel". Eva is a concentrate of sex appeal and feline grace that consumes you in a smile and kills you in a glance. What eventually leads me to compare them, is that they are not alike physically, but rather share a look, an attitude, an aura. Transcended by Lara who now boasts a regular size, both wonderful and rare to emphasize, imperfect teeth for some and undeniable charm to me. But above all, a charismatic icon. In other words: "a foxy lady".

Love at first sight... Odessa by Caribou
The Canadian band comes back with a new opus called Swim due to be released on April 20th 2010. The first excerpt Odessa is hacked for the dancefloor. We always find the psychedelic atmosphere that characterizes them, but this time the hovering sound of Melody Day (on Andorra - August 2007) or joyful of Yeti (on The Milk Of Human Kindness - April 2005) gives way to a darker mood.

Imagine all the People - Anna Mouglalis, Diane Kruger... New icons next door
Modern muses and perfect representatives of the contemporary "female icon". Far from the throngs exasperating and hollow "it girls", they would have us accept as a new concept of disposable icons ... Gross ... They are the "new glam", ie a mix of old and new codes of "female icon" adjusted to our time.

Most little girls play with dolls, then they become real human size dolls, and play in way different spheres as those of their childhood's clean and cosy nest.
