Tonight, VICE Presents a Tour de France (Of Sorts)

Tonight, our friends at VICE records have teamed up with Scion to throw a massive "house party" at Antone's—best of all, it's completely free if you RSVP in time.

They've flying in legendary French music producer Quentin "Mr. Oizo" Dupieux, who's best known for his 1999 techno track, "Flat Beat" (think: yellow sock puppet). Joining Oizo (pronounced oi-seau) is fellow French hip-hop producer and Ed Banger artist DJ Mehdi. Between the two, they've remixed everyone from Air and Architecture in Helsinki to Scissor Sisters and the late 70s disco troupe, Gary's Gang. Local favorites Ocelot open.

Update: We've received word that Mr. Oizo isn't going to make it to tonight's show. Nevertheless, the party is still going to happen.

Kavinsky is replacing Mr. Oizo on the bill per the email I just got from Scion.

Vice is skeezy, skanky, and ugly.

If you read Vice, your mind gets herpes.
