Sometimes a song just jumps out at me and screams, “Hey! I belong on your site, because I’m a lot of the things that you like and that your readers have come to expect!” In this case, it was “Dancing With The DJ” by The Knocks, whom you may remember from this Monsieur Adi remix of “Make It Better” that I posted earlier this summer (FYI, if you are a fan of Monsieur Adi, keep your eyes peeled, because there just might be something super awesome coming your way soon, we hope we hope). Well, way back then, we said almost nothing about the band itself, mostly because we were in the middle of our incredible yearly week up north with tons of friends at a sick cottage that couldn’t even be called that, and I was trying to finish up posts as fast as I could so I could meet the rest of the crew at the beach for fun in the sun. But the LES duo of Ben “DJ B-Roc” Ruttner and James “JPatt” Patterson, whose name comes from their humble beginnings in their apartment with the neighbors, you guessed it, knocking on doors and walls to get them to shut the F up. Luckily they’ve since moved on and are know producing some pretty funky jams like this one.
