The Sneaky Ting Tings

If you'd like to hear Hands, the new single by popular dance duo the Ting Tings, you must first "like" them on Facebook, which of course tells your friends that you "like" them. And if you want to hear the remix of Hands (and what fan wouldn't?) you must unlock the mix by sharing it to your page. Clever, clever. Never seen this before.

Scissor Sisters - Any Which Way

Dancing on the speakers, are you peaking with the tweakers, the bigots and the breeders on the scene? The night don't last forever, so get your shit together. Open arms are never what they seem.

TONIGHT: DJ Rich Morel In DC

DJ Rich Morel (one-half of the wildly popular Blowoff team) debuts a new party tonight in Washington DC at Club Liv. Doors open 10pm, $7. Facebook page. Guaranteed to be a sweaty furry mess! In a good way!

JMG EXCLUSIVE!!! Here's DJ Rich Morel's brand new mix for Yoko Ono, Wouldnit (I'm A Star). This is Rich's fifth production for Yoko and three of them have gone to #1 on Billboard's Hot Dance chart. Loving it!

Classic Philly Disco - Remixed

Famed remixer Dimitri From Paris has tackled classic '70s Philly disco with a two-disc package titled Get Down With The Philly Sound. On Saturday, DJ Frankie Knuckles spun Dimitri's below reworking of Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes' stone classic, The Love I Lost, at Montreal's Divers/Cite Sunset Party, where I had to school my able homoguide about Teddy Pendergrass' famous mid-lyric exhortations. "Uh HAH, I lost it!" He picked it up very quickly, the dear boy. You can stream the first disc of Dimitri's release right here.

RELATED: I'll get my final Montreal wrap-up post done shortly. Things have been busy 'round here, y'all!

Ke$ha - Take It Off

New clip from Ke$ha, same old auto-tune.

Chromeo - Don't Turn The Lights On

I heard this on the radio in Montreal. A lot. This reminds me very much of The System's 1983 electro classic hit You Are In My System. (Which was later covered by Robert Palmer.)

Jane Fonda For Scissor Sisters

Plus weathergirl Amanda Lepore, Juliette Lewis, and 80,000 drunk English homos.

La Grande Danse @ Divers/Cite

Montreal's Divers/Cite climaxed yesterday with an all day street party called La Grande Danse, which was headlined by the red-hot Freemasons. This clip was shot quite early in the day while opener DJ Danny Verde was spinning and before it got super-packed. I'm told about attendance at the party peaked at around 40,000.
