DJ Teridactyl

Kelis has come a long way since her "Milkshake" days. Her new video "Acapella," off her soon to be released album Flesh Tone, features Kelis as a futuristic warrior woman, and gives us a glimpse into her new electronica inspired sound. The visuals are a bit odd for me, but I dig the song. Do you think this new direction works for her?

Just a heads up that I won't be at Far Bar this Sunday spinning my usual set, because I've been booked to DJ a private party instead. But you can look for me back there again, April 11th!

Lady Gaga's epic new video for "Telephone" is here! Clocking in at over 9 minutes, the Jonas Åkerlund directed video has Gaga sporting more outrageous fashions, gives a nod to Quentin Tarantino, and brings Beyoncé along for the ride! The video also includes some female brawl fighting, skimpy outfits, strong language, and a crotch flash courtesy of Gaga herself, so needless to say NSFW.

For those wondering about the results of the competition last Friday, I'm afraid I don't even know them! I was placed at a major disadvantage though when I had to use both a different set-up and program than what I'm used to practicing on. So my guess is that I didn't advance, but just because of that doesn't mean I'm out of the competition yet. You can still vote me in as "Fan Favorite" until March 19th, by going HERE.

Above is the video I first submitted as my entry into the contest.

I entered KIIS FM's "So You Wanna Be A DJ" contest earlier this week, and they just called me today to say that I've been chosen as 1 of 5 semi-finalists who will be competing this Friday at Club DV8 in Hollywood for a spot in the finals!

Details are in the flyer above if you'd like to come out and support Friday night!

Update: The actual competition will be held from 10:30 -11pm.

I had a great time DJing the premiere party for "The Life & Times of Tim" last Friday night. It was held in Downtown LA (check out the skyline in the back)! Hope you tune into the show, it's a good one!

Timbaland's video for "Carry Out" has just dropped. Despite Justin Timberlake's contribution, it wasn't my favorite song off Shock Value II, but it's starting to grow on me!

Rihanna channels M.I.A. in her latest video for "Rude Boy." I'm really crushing on this song right now!

Beginning Feb. 14th (Valentine's night), I'll be DJing the Far Bar in Little Tokyo every 2nd & 4th Sunday. Come out, have a drink, and enjoy the music!

Tim's showing some DJ Teridactyl love on his shirt! Watch The Life & Times of Tim every Friday night on HBO beginning Feb. 19th at 9:30pm.

Christina Aguilera has one of the best dance tracks ever in my book with "Dirty." But I've never considered any of her other songs that danceable until now. The first single off the soundtrack Burlesque to hit the web is "Spotlight"- a thunderous, big band stomper that begs everyone to hit the dance floor! Check it out HERE.

Okay, tell me I'm not to only one out there excited about this? The first single from Gorillaz forth coming album, "Plastic Beach" has hit the web, and it's a goodie! Maybe not for the dance floor, but a laid back track with a nice beat + Damon Albarn (can anyone say "genius"?). Just do yourself a favor and go to http://www.gorillaz.com, and listen to their new track, "Stylo" on their front page.
