We love it when people send us stuff they’ve made — check out this sweet video for Shawty is a 10 (Remix) we just got:

We’re hard at work on a new original track called “Morning Light (Stay)”, but in the meantime we sort of flipped out and put together this remix of The Dream’s “Shawty is a 10.” Check out the album art — late night CES secret strip club photo FTW, baby.

Hey, it’s taken us almost a year, but Devotion has finally been released, and we’re really excited. Go here to get it right now, and come to our release party on September 20th at Chicago’s Subterranean (2011 W. North Ave) at 8:30. The show is 18+, which is a rarity, so bring everyone you know. We’ll be playing new songs, and breaking out the house version of “Don’t Stop Believing” for a triumphant second appearance. See you then!

So the H70s will probably be releasing our second single, “Devotion,” next week and I’m really happy with how the art is turning out. This isn’t the final version, but it’s close. Ten points for anyone who can identify the girl.

UPDATE: I’ve changed it to the final art. It’s much nicer now, more blended / color corrected.

After a lot of hard work and some rough patches along the way, I’m pleased to say that The Heaven Seventies have released our first single, “Coldest Day of the Year.” You can go get it from shiny new website like, right now. We’ve got some hot shit remixes on the way, as well.

We’re planning on releasing our next track, “Devotion,” shortly. You can hear a prerelease version of it on our MySpace — we think it’s pretty hot.

Finally got around to doing something with the show video from the sold-out Hideout show. The overlay is the projection we used — it’s the first one I made, so I’m fairly proud of it, particularly the DDR sequence at the end. The official Heaven Seventies website is scheduled to go up next week with the release of “Coldest Day of the Year,” I can’t wait.

Everything you write is terrible. It’s like you don’t even listen to what you’re covering. I promise you, a year from now, your review of Justice will provoke incredible embarrassment. You used the word “cockslap,” for God’s sake. To describe dance music with no bass. That doesn’t have vocals. Fuck you.

so according to my last.fm profile, i am 26.82% mainstream. that seems about right, i think.

as long as you commit, it will always work:

some of you have already seen this, but i feel guilty lifting so much content from others without posting any of my own, so i’m re-using it. sue me.*

i made this video about a year ago for a first coat song called “artichoke”, from their record move like sparrows. i shot it with alex kramer over the course of one rainy afternoon and evening at what most hp music kids just call “the everett apartment,” during a mr. hyde records packaging party. i think it was for hyde five.

anyway. here is a thing that i made. if you look closely, you can see that it is basically my idealized representation of What Being In A Band In College Is Like.

(for some reason i can’t get youtube to not stretch the shit out of this, if you want to see the non-distorted version (in ipod format, no less) click here.)

*i say this with great pride and confidence, because wonder of wonders, i’m a fucking lawyer now.
