Harlem Shakes C Side

Listen to this, because you probably haven’t heard it (it was only released as a demo), and because it’s great (she says, totally objectively). ”A Night” is a very, very old Harlem Shakes song – from their pre-Carpetbaggers days – and it’s the song that was transformed into “Sunlight” for the Technicolor Health LP. I like it even better than the song that it became (which is itself quite great and deserves more than a few listens).

    These songs and the Harlem Shakes in general were a very pleasant discovery (I now have them on iTunes). Such a shame they disbanded.
    You generally display good taste in music, you should post more songs!

    yep. i think we also covered 99 Problems and The Whisper Song by the Ying Yang Twins (which no one heard because, well, Jose actually whispered it). The floor also almost caved in. You rule. Good memory.
