The Facemelter
Have you ever been curious who makes everything here at Jetlag look spic and spam day in and day out? Well the man in front of the key board and mouse is none other than Mr. Eden Hannon. Today Mr. Hannon wants to demonstrate his vocal abilities in hopes to make it big. But we have to say we are all lucky he creates the beauty of JL with his hands and mind and not his vocal cords.Introducing Mr. Eden Hannon remixing the Foreigner hit, "I want to know what love is."

Baby Making Music
Sebastian Tellier's Album, "Sexuality", is probably some of the best "baby making music we've ever herd. Being produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk we knew he must be good, I mean come on have a look at the guy and his album cover. Purely amazing. But the guy does actually have some skill and he slows that whole synth-electro scene down to expose us to smooth relaxing beats and woos. With his quiet vocals mixed in babies are surely to start popping out of any woman in close proximity.

The Grammys Suck
I'm sorry but this year the Grammys were shit... Giving Amy Winehouse 5 Grammys for her over played over hyped song rehab and then having to sit through an awful performance of "Rehab" broadcast via satellite from the UK cause she was to drugged up to make the flight across the pond. Amy you need to "go, go, go"...This performance of Kanye is amazing though...
At least they did one thing right this year.

Yelle!!!
If any of you remember this crazy French electro video we posted a few months back we want to tell you more about the people behind it. The genius musician behind the video (who is not actually featured in the video) is the female French artist Yelle. Her popish, electro club music is blowing up in France right now and when she teamed with fellow French Electro/Dance/Rap team TEPR to remix A Cause Des Garcons and produce a video of the new electronic dancing of Europe the world payed attention.
Check out more music from her MySpace here and be sure to check out her whole album POP UP on iTunes

Robot Love
A couple years back a buddy of mine had a tiny little art/ music show on a Sunday afternoon in the parking lot of a art supply store. The scene was mellow and not much was happening until a lil known band name Robot Love came on. While they were setting up the lead singer grabbed the mic and beatboxing beats like Drop It Like It's Hot, by Snoop. The Kid kills it, he can play four beats at once and sing just with his mouth and a mic. Long story short his band Robot Love performed a solid little amateur show.
Last night I herd they were headlining a show at a sweet little club in downtown LA and jumped at the chance to go see them again. Once again the singer beatboxed even better than before and his band threw down some sweet beats throughout the entire show. Everyone was on their feet dancing, jumping and shouting tripping out to their wild light show that I can totally tell is inspired by Daft Punk.
Check out their video below and listen to a few tracks on their MySpace.
We love Robot Love

Girl Talk
Girl Talk has to be the best thing to come out of a cubical since office space. According to rumor this guy Gregg who is Girl Talk has been spinning mad beats on his laptop for years during his day job only to make a name for himself with the underground dance club crowd of today. His mixes everything and anything from 50 Cent to Peter, Bjorn and John constantly changing beats barely before you recognize what song it is. Mad props to this guy who is throwing parties at venues across the states by pushing play on his laptop, jumping off tables, and dancing with the crowd hours on end.Check out his site or his Myspace and be sure to listen to his new mis Let's Call It Off.

More Daft Punk Love
Yes Yes more Daft Punk but this video is incredible too. This is the official Around the World video and we think it rules. Check out how good the choreography goes with the music.Labels: Music Video
Daft Punk Hands
Yes of course we love Daft Punk here at Jetlag. How could you not? Probably the most amazing band of our days. There concerts rock harder than the Stones and there light shows will make those Hollywood Geeks sick.This isn't the original Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger video by Daft Punk but who ever made it is pure genius and has some mad skills.
I bet they shred on the piano too.
Watch and love
