It’s been a few years since Chromeo released any new songs (2007 to be exact), so I’m really happy to hear that they just put out a new track called “Night By Night” which you can listen to on their Myspace page. The single was released on Greenlabelsound.com, but right now the site is so overloaded with folks eager to download the new track that it’s pretty much unusable. So to help you all out, you can download the track here.

If you haven’t heard already, Jay-Z’s latest album (to be released officially on 9/11) leaked yesterday and I’ve had the opportunity to listen to it earlier than expected. There’s one song so far on the album that really sticks out from the rest and I think it’s because it’s got a catchy hook and chorus. The song is “Empire State of Mind” and it’s more or less a song about how Jay-Z admires New York City and all that it has to offer. Think of it as a sort of NYC anthem that you can play in your headphones while you walk down any street in NYC and feel like you’re having the greatest day of your life.
There isn’t a music video for it, but I imagine a music video for this song showing Jay-Z walking in his old neighborhood with the sun shining brightly and him say hi and giving pounds to his friends along the way. That’s pretty much it. Maybe a car ride to another borough (or a Subway ride or something). But basically, just Jay-Z enjoying a stroll through NY.

Oh wow, Business Guys on Business Trips is a hilarious single-frame comic about the stupid stuff that happens at work. [via]
Situations that slow down progress, insane red-tape, and people in business suits are all addressed in this comic. You’ll want to bookmark this for sure.

Slovenian inventor Aleksander Polutnik has created what is essentially a one-wheeled Segway that he calls the Enicycle. [via]
The Enicycle uses a computer with gyroscopes that computes about 100 calculations per second to keep the rider balanced and upright. With a top speed of 10mph, it’s not something you would race with, but it certainly looks fun to ride! Currently, Aleksander Polutnik is trying to find a company to mass produce this one-wheeled vehicle. I hope it won’t break the bank!

No music video, but this is one great track. Certainly makes me anticipate the upcoming Bloody Beetroots album even more (to be released September 8, 2009).
