“Was wird da draus?... Was wird daraus?”
The second track of Ratatat’s latest full-length, LP4, starts out with a voiceover from what I guess must be some old German film. Let me translate…Professor Sonorous Gravely Man Voice is saying, “What will come of this?” It’s almost as if Ratatat was questioning where on earth this latest album was going, if anywhere at all. The eager listener isn’t really sure where they’re going either through these seconds of pondering, at least not until Ratatat launch into “Drugs” and fully wallop us over the head multiple times with a solid succession of tunes. Tunes, I might add, that you will be hearing at parties all summer long (“Oh my God, I LOVE Ratatat! Why aren’t we friends?”), will be remixed with the latest Miley and J-Biebz by fall, and will make it onto the next installations of Super Mash Bros and Hood Internet mixtapes several times. Take my word for it.
Was wird da draus? (transl: "What will come of this?") EIN TANZFEST wird daraus. (transl: "a gathering in which many people are vigorously dancing will come of this.") This album could not have been timed more perfectly: it is nothing if not a summer album. The pace never drops below effortless boogie, and will have you at full out rave at certain points. This guy knows what I’m talking about.
Stand Out tracks: "Party With Children," "Drugs," the end of "Bare Feast" when a woman’s voiceover says this: “Yeah, I used to wait for people…after school and beat ‘em up (laughs), if I didn’t like ‘em, if they were pretty, or if they smiled too much.” Me too!

I like this two grade thing we've been doing.
lp4 also was recorded in the same session as lp3 so they literally just held onto the music they thought made the most sense for a separate album. Apparently they thought these were the more experimental songs. I feel a bit jipped, like we didn't get any actual development here, like they worked less hard at first to make it seem as if they were making leaps and bounds later. Lil Wayne woulda just released a mixtape for LP3, released LP4 a couple of years ago and would already be on LP5 if ya know what Im sayin. Good album, but the story behind it is weak.
Your means of describing everything in this piece of writing is truly pleasant, all be capable of without difficulty know it, Thanks a lot.

Hey! I know this is sort of off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does building a well-established blog such as yours require a lot of work?
I am completely new to blogging but I do write in my diary everyday.
I'd like to start a blog so I will be able to share my experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any ideas or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Appreciate it!
