Le Youth – C O O L (Lane 8 Remix)

As long as you’re cool, right here is where you wanna be

These are the only lyrics in Lane 8‘s take on Le Youth’s “C O O L”. This is the type of music I can really jam to. It’s simple and enjoyable. It brings me to a happy, calm place- a place in which I don’t have to think. Audio stimulation is all I need in the moment.

So, I’ve been hearing a topic pop-up quite frequently lately (maybe there was a BuzzFeed article about it)- the cognitive differences between men and women. I hear things like, “men’s brains have compartments and they focus only on one at a time. And sometimes none at all.” While women, “think about 5 things at once and can never shut their brains off”. Ummmmm…. Thoughts on this from the audience? Seriously, write me a comment. I’m female and I don’t believe it this to be the case. I happen to turn my brain off fairly frequently, and I oftentimes feel like the “man” in the relationship; urging my partner to stop analyzing everything so much, to stop thinking. Be cool, go with the flow. Hey World, women aren’t always the most complicated gender!!

And this track is a case in point. When I hear a song like “C O O L”, I can’t help but to think about nothing. To just BE. Here. In the moment.

Sit, groove, enjoy.

Le Youth – Dance With Me

Le Youth is the musical project of producer Wes James from the 90210. He’s not that famous as of yet but I am a fan of his work. If you for one reason or another recognize the lyrics in this song or they just sound familiar, it’s because Mr. James sampled TLC’s 90’s super hit No Scrubs. Truth is, if I hadn’t told you it might have taken you a couple of listens to figure it out. They are hidden in a disco-laden marimba and tropical cocktail of sounds. When the track’s about to end there’s a brief pause and a little gift in the form of a rap that I won’t spoil for you.

Some crazy guy edited the original TLC video to sync up with this song, so here it is:

My favourite track by Le Youth is Cool which I’m including as a bonus. I simply cannot stop playing this one. It also features a little rapping before the last verses.

“This song is your cool… Baby tell me how you like it.”
