What’s the first song you’d play at a party?
Maybe I don't know shit about parties, but I feel like the first song can be whatever you want because you probably start before people are there. I don't recall ever being at a party where people were like "ok gather around i'm gonna open Winamp." I don't recall being at a party where music played an important role outside of a birthday party, and even then that music is provided by the guests, I don't get to say "everyone lets sing Money Machine by 100 gecs, you all know the words!" Though it would be fun to hear a group of people say "Hey you little piss baby."
So I'm going to pick something self-indulgent so that I can get it out of the way before I force my musical taste on people who didn't ask for it. Sleigh Bells has a new album out and it's good! I mean, it's the closest thing to their first few albums in a while and that's pretty cool to see them do. I've also been listening to their first few albums again and I currently think this song sounds pretty loud and fun.
