Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa

Calvin Harris has been on a roll with all of his A-list collaborations over the past several years including everyone from Rihanna and Frank Ocean, to Nicki Minaj and Gwen Stefani, as well as John Legend. His sound has been bouncing around from today's ubiquitous radio-ready EDM pop to slow-jamming R&B fare. On his latest release, Harris harks back to old school 90s house goodness in “One Kiss" - which unsurprisingly features a very of-the-moment pop princess...none other than English singer-songwriter/model Dua Lipa who is currently all over the FM airwaves with her “New Rules" hit.

“One Kiss" is definitely very reminiscent OG Calvin Harris. Think his earlier pace-setting staples like “I Created Disco" and “Disco Heat“ way before being Taylor's beau and becoming one of the richest DJs on the planet. The track brings back fond memories of that catchy classic house sound that swept Manhattan during the heyday of Crystal Waters' excellent 1991 “Gypsy Woman" house anthem. That's the direction where Harris takes “One Kiss"' along with his latest leading lady and EDM diva Lipa. And it's certainly working. Harris brings the bumping soulful grooves while Lipa belts out sassy diva vocal declaring that “one kiss is all it takes to" fall in love with her.

In today's music day and age of cookie-cutter commercial EDM sounds, it's nice to go back to basics and hear some quality deep house. And maybe going back to that is the future of dance music this time around.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
