chill summer



While the actual soundtrack to this summer was "Call me Maybe", "I Don't like", and "Gangam Style", this one indie song and vid could very well have been playing all August.

This song is the boringly exciting numbness of various LA parties that are almost as hip as they want to be.

Watch the vid, the first minute before they get to the party captures the lack of accomplishment a hungover day can bring.  The guys are fucking around on bikes, being active in a way that doesn't build to anything. I find more similarity with the girls driving around in their old car.  LA has a car culture and that manifests itself in multiple ways. Driving around on a day off is a good way to fill time without having to think or work too hard.
