38 Farenheit

So back in Madrid, and it is ridiculously cold. As a San Diegan, these temperatures are unheard of: the high today is 47, the low 40. Awesome. Im in bed, as you can see above, and wearing three layers of pants and theres like eight blankets in the bed.
A Morocco post is soon to come.

Seems like it's crunch time back home, in terms of the election. Obama? McCain?? who's it gonna be?? Hopefully the former. I said I would stay here if he lost, but with this cold, San Diego sounds bomb even if its in a country whose possible vice president is...in not gonna bash Palin. You can come up with something better.

anywayzzzzzz. its cold. Whoomp there it is!

New Musique

So they've been around for awhile, yeah yeah. But this song is still fresh and the remix is growing on me every time I hear it. Love me some crunchy bass lines. Apparently they're playing San Diego's own FM949 anniversary show with another of my favs: TV on the Radio. But like typical SD-fashion, its a 21+ show.

SLOW MOTION

I love videos in slow-mo. check this one out:

Slow Motion Dog Drink

Not to mention...

I was in Barcelona for the past six days. Wow. That city reminds me of San Diego sooo much, you got good beaches, cool people, awesome views. But it doesn't feel like Spain, it's as if we went to a different country. Went to soo many things/museums. But two places stick out, more than the rest.
1. Picasso Museum:
Wow. this man is a genius, and i don't even know art, but i get it now. They had some old sketches, old paintings, newer ones, sculpture, pottery...

2. La Champanieria:
Big props to my cuz Roberto on this one. That man has excellent taste in food. He rec'd this place where they serve bocadillos (raza: lea tortas) or sandwiches. But these had such a wide variety of flavors all in one sandwich and they only had champagne for drink. Oh and standing room only and the place was more tightly packed than a fat girl trying to fit into a size 1. oh and there was no sign outside.

ps. I also lost my camera, so new photos will have to wait. I will either post old ones or spoil you with masterpieces as the one above.

I'm Back!!

Wow, its been awhile. So let's see, where to start...oh!!
COACHELLA dates announced! april 17-19. It seemed like last year a lot of people were 'over' Coachella, like it's too mainstream now, yada yada yada...I don't care, it's always been fun. And sure to be awesome this year as well. So see you there!

and this Justice Documentary preview, looks pretty cool. Wonder which one is better, Soulwax or Justice. Its a war of the documentaries:

JUSTICE - A CROSS THE UNIVERSE (teaser)

So last night...

Wow. So it all starts with the yellow "MTV Spain" book that was in my room when I got here, maybe some hip SMU student left it for anyone else to stumble upon. So naturally I look up "Clubbing" in the Madrid section. The book recommends "Nature (Mid-Day)" by saying, "Nature is absolutely worth a visit, especially on Thursdays...The metallic decor and low, red lighting make it seem like Han Solo might show up later on. Little TV's show Japanese anime." This description is perfect. PERFECT.
If you ever come to madrid, on a thursday, come here.

We showed up it was 1230-1ish. The place was empty but the music, oh my the music. Soo bomb, this DJ was playin nothing but the best electro you've never heard, ON VINYL. HIS WHOLE SET.

So later, people showed up and the place was packed, by then this DJ:
http://www.myspace.com/cajuan

starts his set with the banger of the moment, that you, dear reader, heard about here on El Eskeleto, "Kids" MGMT (Soulwax remix). Just obliterated the place. The house was about to burn down. He goes on to play Daft Punk Digitalism Justice Crookers Michael Jackson it was like he was playing off my computer, but my favorite song was the DJ SkeetSkeet remix of "Want you Back"-Jackson 5, that just killed the place. What are the chances of hearing a song from a LA DJ remixing a 30year old song, at a club in Madrid played by a random/bossa German DJ? Slim. To none.

oh, I should give a shout out to Skeetskeet, and his bossa blog: www.eatskeet.com
I'll take the cam. next thursday so you can see Nature in all its glory.

FILM; Moving Pictures; Pelicula

So freakin blogger won't let me upload a sweet video of me walking out of my place, hopefully I can upload it later. So since you can't see my video watch the preview for the Biggie movie:
