The Teenagers Homecoming

Remix Contests are sooo 2007?

Merok Records just posted a COLOUR IN CONTEST.
Here is the background info:

COLOUR IN ... BEST ONE WINS SOMETHING COOL !!! USE FELT TIPS AND BIROS ... PHOTOSHOP SUXXXXXXXX

Great differentiation strategy by the marketing team at Merok Records. Much like Kitsune banked on an economy of DJs and producers who were eager to remix "Drugs in my Body", Merok is counting on a large number of people with markers, coloured pencils, and crayons who are looking for some recognition for their abilities.

Starlett Remixes

The Teenagers are recording material with Gordon Raphael, the guy who produces The Strokes. Until their album comes out, Merok and the Teenagers continue to create content worth blogging about. Here's the highly bloggable video for "Starlett Johansson."

This video would earn a solid "A" in most digital art college classes, but the aesthetic might take some 'explaining' if the teacher wasn't 'progressive' enough.

From Merok:

Do you remember when you were young and you couldn't get your mind off that unreachable on-screen crush? Obsessively finding out all you can about them to make yourself feel that little bit closer? Well, take all those adolescent emotions and sprinkle in a good amount of sardonic wit and you've got The Teenagers impossibly catchy Starlett Johansson . A synth-pop pastiche to everyone's favourite film star, Scarlet Johansson, it will stick in your head like perfectly round pink bubblegum blown by the woman herself.

Here are some newer remixes of "Starlett Johansson." They're different than most of the other remixes of the Teenagers that are out there, so you should definitely DL them.
