29 February 2008 | Leap Day Hot Topic: Limonade & Seele

Sometimes, we have to go way back here at produzentin.com.
I’m thinking Friedrich von Schiller weeks. (Google him, he’s ancient & German)
Let’s start with one of my favourite quotes:

“Die Limonade ist matt, wie deine Seele.”
(Kabale und Liebe)

“The lemonade is weak, like your soul.”
(Intrigue and Love)

‘Weak’ seems to be the official translation for ‘matt’ in this case. But I’d rather use ‘flat’. A more casual translation would probably be:

“The pop is dull, just like your soul.”

Although dull is not the right word, but it sounds so good.
What do you think? Are you down with Schiller?

24 February 2008 | LezzieNuts

It was the most lezzie Hotnuts, yet. Thank you all for coming out, it was tons of fun.

Lex’s performance was so incredible, a lot of party people got their suckle on. One of my dreams came true: djing with a drag king, Kiki rocked the house. Also, it was my first time in pants at Hotnuts, thanks to a generous present I got from Cologne, kisses to M.&C. Karen was the hottest chick with a dick & she brought a bag of Hotnuts from Mexico.

Mary, we missed you.

20 February 2008 | Welcome to the Soo

As if the snow in Toronto wasn’t enough, I’m in Sault Ste. Marie until Friday. I’ve learned it’s somewhere in northern Ontario. I guess to make sure that everyone knows how to pronounce “Sault”, the city is also called Soo by them peoples.
I’ve put a couple of pictures on flickr.

On the way to the Soo

18 February 2008 | Me Wants To Be Morphed Into a Mermaid, NOW

The mystery is finally solved. On the cover of her next single, You Know Me Better, Roisin Murphy wears Givenchy Couture Spring 2007. Roisin spilled the beans in the comments of my favourite myspace spy.

Riccardo Tisci, the creative director at Givenchy, says that the collection was inspired by “the metamorphosis of sailors into mermaids.”

How do you say ... Givenchy Couture?
You Know Me Better is out at the end of March
Listen to remixes by Toddla T and Guy Williams (via the great Roisin blog)

Here’s the complete Roisin fashion stalk-a-thon. She wears:
Givenchy Couture on the You Know Me Better cover
Sandra Backlund on the Overpowered album cover
Maison Martin Margiela in the video to Let Me Know
Gareth Pugh: Overpowered video, Let Me Know single cover, Let Me Know video
Viktor & Rolf on the cover of the Overpowered single

14 February 2008 | Slow Tongue

I really don’t know what took me so long to get Millie Jackson’s album E.S.P. (Extra Sexual Persuasion). Blame it on sluggish postal service.

Anyway, the vinyl arrived at my doorstep this week and it hasn’t left the turntable yet. The stand out track on the album is Slow Tongue, a slow burning number with sultry lyrics and a hypnotic guitar hook. That’s my kind of nastiness. I loves me some Millie.

Read My Future. Please.

Juices
Lubricating
You bring me to the rim
I can’t take it anymore

Slow tongue
Working your way down

Another E.S.P. highlight is Sexercise: “I do my workout late at night, the bedroom is my gym”. Expect a couple of Millie posts in the coming weeks. In case you haven’t noticed, Millie has the best album covers.

Happy Valentines!

12 February 2008 | E=MC²

Excuse me while I dry my pants.
It’s official, Mariah’s new album is called E=MC². Out on April 15th.
Best title ever, hands down.

Her new single, Touch My Body, produced by MC, Tricky Stewart and The-Dream, premieres at radio stations TODAY.

11 February 2008 | Omar’s Little Secret

I’m a bit behind with The Wire, having just watched season 2. Anyhow, I discovered Omar’s little secret: He was in a Madonna music video, you guessed it: Secret.

More interesting than homo Omar is his cute bf, Dante. I would rob drugs for him, too.
More pictures of the faggy-butchy-thug Wire couple after the jump. In total gaction.
Gay. Gay. Gay. Gay Gayness.

09 February 2008 | Get Myself Together

Last night, Mary and I went to our favourite gay strip club in town (there is only one). One of the strippers sat with us for a while. His name was Flame (I think it’s his real name). He made fun of me because I’m a lap dance virgin (still are). Suddenly, he fell off the chair and we had the last laugh.
Mary was really into one stripper who looked like a CK model. When he starred back at Mary he was basically eye-raping her. A couple of shots later, Mary said: “I want to give him my PIN number!”. I knew it was time for us to leave.

Like a mantra against my hangover, on repeat today: Get Myself Together (Hercules HercHouse Mix) by Chaz Jankel. Soon to be released on Tirk including a re-edit by Todd Terje. Get the song at the great mp3 blog These Rocks Pop. They have Mariah mixes, too.

Earlier: New Hercules

Frederick Ljungberg
That’s the betch. Mary always falls for Swedes.

06 February 2008 | Search with Kanye

Kanye has his own search engine, powered by Google and 5 million other websites. You can win prizes, swag dollars and all that. My first two searches were: “kanye naked” and “kanye boner boy”.

Just a little message to let ‘Ye know what peoples really want.
