Brisk & Trixxy - See The Light

Brisk & Trixxy - Euro Love

I accepted it when Eyeopener turned out to be a eurodance cover. Somehow it hit me harder when Euro Love was. “Euro Love”. Yeah I dunno.

(It’s a cover of Wonderland’s Fantasy Of Love.)

I guess I lose all right to bitch about Flip & Fill and all them now.

Brisk & Trixxy - Eyeopener

For a while there, every single set and every single mix had either this tune or Euro Love or both.

The lyrics come from one-hit eurodancer Koko’s Open Your Eyes, and the other samples are from Redman and Method Man’s How High.

In honor of Sucker Punch:

Brisk & Trixxy - Goodbye Summertime

Back after Salon ran out of money to pay names like Paglia but before they reinvented themselves for the Bush years as the netmagazine of left-of-NPR-we-know-because-we-listen-to-NPR types, one of their few running beefs was with WWASPS, a collective of brutal, offshore or otherwise loosely regulated “reform” camps for teens.

For a while it was one of my dreams to debut the rogue military with which I’ll ultimately conquer the world by liberating one of these camps, to the tune of this song. And isn’t that the height of goddamn adolescent messiah fantasies?

It’s still one of my dreams.
