Young Artists For Haiti – Wavin’ Flag

Happy Easter Hamburger Disco Family!

Hello Everyone!

We hope that everyone is having a great Sunday!  It’s nice and sunny here in Vancouver, little windy but it’s a perfect day for kite flying. Just thought we’d upgrade your audio library with an amazing UK act that’s been garnering a lot of attention lately. Sunday Girl’s single “Four Floors” just released and let me tell you it’s one of my favourite songs at the moment. Great music to drive to on a wonderful Sunday like today.

“Official video for Sunday Girl’s debut single ‘Four Floors’ out 28th March 2010 Directed by Elisha Smith-Leverock”

Diplo also got his hands on it and made it equally as amazing as the original track with a totally different feel.  Check out the remix with Diplo Here and make sure to purchase the track on iTunes

Have a great long weekend!

The Best of April Fool’s Day 2010

Hello Everyone!

Its that time of year again, the time for everyone to play merciless tricks on unsuspecting people and not feel bad about it! Here’s what we came up with from all of the tricks played online…

bieberordie

What do you do when you’re a teenage popstar and a mainstay on Twitter’s trending topics? Buy comedy site Funny Or Die, rename it “Bieber or Die,” and proclaim that “anything that’s not Bieber, dies” in a video that shows the singer might actually be somewhat self-aware of the absurdity of his popularity. Funny or Die is taking the joke all the way though, completely redesigning its site for the prank. Justin Bieber recently has been garnering a lot of attention and Aziz Ansari recently poked fun at his new song on the site

KiD CuDi’s Pursuit of Happiness

“This past week, a music video for Kid Cudi’s “Pursuit of Happiness” featuring MGMT and Ratatat, had a short lived fling with the Internet as a wave of censorship swept it out of sight. There were rumors Cudi didn’t approve of his performance, and an alternate video for the same track (above), was created.” (more…)

California Dreams Reunion!

If you were anything like us growing up, then you know California Dreams was the coolest band ever.   Give it up to Jimmy Fallon for continuing to bring our childhood memories back to life.

This is pretty wicked. The whole gang looks pretty happy. I kind of wish they gave Sly some sort of intro gag or something. Matt Garrison never looked better – he actually looks cooler today than he did back then. Jake Summers on the other hand…
