No, the reason these two have been lumped together in such an undignified fashion is that they both have new singles out on the 23rd, but there's not really a lot to say about either song.

Chromeo's song is called 'Tenderoni', and is so '80s Calvin Harris wants to marry it. Korn's song is called 'Evolution', and is so Korn it's like Korn and and Korn tribute band got together to write the Korniest song they could possibly imagine, in a Kornish fashion...in Kornwall. Both songs are available at the band's respective MySpace pages, links are at the bottom of this page.

That's it. Nothing else to say...*fingerdrum*....

I mean I'll TRY to think of other stuff to talk about, but the big problem with writing, specifically writing about music and not really being allowed to add your own made-up stories, is that you never know when the word-tumble from brain to fingers will suddenly run ou...

Kidding! Of COURSE you're allowed to add made-up stories...

So, anyway, Korn and Chromeo, Chromeo and Korn...

Wouldn't it be brilliant if there was a faux-'70s detective series called Chromeo And Korn? It could be one of those slightly wacky ones, where they are a comically mis-matched pair, who really shouldn't get along, but somehow their individual quirks fuse, and cancel each other out, and even though they don't exactly play by THE RULES, they really get the job done.

You'd have, like, Detective Dave Korn, from downtown Chicago. He's an undercover cop on the edge, who works in a shady netherworld of long-haired youths in tattoo parlours, and freakish high-school kids who have to take 'heat' from 'the jocks'. He's got issues, but what he doesn't know about the Scottish martial arts - particularly lethal bagpiping - just ain't worth knowing.

And then there'd be suave Detective Hutch 'Chromeo' Donjohnson, in espadrilles and rolled-up linen suit jacket. He's come over from Miami, and hasn't really got used to the chilly Illinois climate. But his sunny demeanour and easy charm always go over well with 'The Ladies', much to Korn's disgust. And there's this running gag about how he got his nickname. Some say it's because he's always spotless, and a demon lover, or that he had a very shiny car which he used when out on the pull. Some say he has *blushes* a device which *more blushes* he uses in the act of *cough* making *coughcough* with *splutter*, and that's why he has never married.

Sure, they wisecrack with each other all the time. Korn calls Chromeo "a crazy jerk" and Chromeo calls Korn "a stoopid a-hole", but deep down they have total respect for the other's abilities, and when push comes to shove, they always come through for one another, like true partners do.

*sigh* Why is real life always such a let-down?
