But allow me to give you the benefit of the doubt. If you were even 2% my grandeur, you would have cried aborted fetuses out of your eyes when you heard Belgian superduo Aeroplane split up.
This brief period of doubt-benefit is over. If you have asked yourself either one of these two questions:
1) Who are Aeroplane?
2) Wait.. Aeroplane split up?
Stop reading. You are not worth my time. Cue emotive frustration:
Yes, the collective musical genius of Vito de Luca (right, now singly comprising Aeroplane 2.0) and Stephen Fasano have bifurcated, but the Spirit of Nu-Disco Future lives in them both. Like any proper bifurcation, however, the split has allowed them to explore their distinct takes on the genre, providing simple philistines like you and big-penised awesome people like me with a full-spectrum assault of booty-groovin' goodness.
If you haven't failed me already, you may be familiar with this massive remix they did for Breakbot:
A procession of driving basslines, images of Breakbot's short shorts, and erections, this driving high-energy track is perfect for the big room full of lasers, fog machines, and cheers of ecstasy from loyal fans and douchebags alike. However, "high-energy" -- and in a much more formal sense, hi-energy music -- is really the direction in which the Vito airplane is taking off. Taking on a much relaxed, disco fare comes Stephen, aka The Magician, whose choice of tunes is probably more appropriate for dancing by the pool or trying to convince your ex-lover that it was O.K. to forget you did it without a condom.
"Just dance and don't worry about it!"
Mr. Fasano has been pretty busy sculpting his craft of beautiful cosmic beach-lounge disco, with his recent Magic Tape Two receiving well over two thousand listens only two days after its release:
With sounds ranging from Roman Salzger of 'Lollipop Machine' fame to the much-talked-about Chilly Gonzales, Magic Tape Two exudes a type of cool so smooth you won't even notice it slipping inside you. All 48 minutes are simultaneously fresh, exciting, and familiar that compulsive head-nodding and feel-goodness is sure to be had. Watch out for a few remixes in the works right now along with a highly-anticipated Magician EP coming out in the fall!
I could go on about how I love this guy's music and give additional (and extraneous) description to his style, but instead I'll assume that -- since my music taste is so far elevated beyond yours -- you will have to go on and listen to the mix yourself to get the best idea. I'll be watching the sunset sipping on my caiparinha as you get transported to that same figurative beach-side cabana.
