If you listened to yesterday's Song Of The Day you will already have heard about this so you can go and make a cup of tea or something. If you didn't…

Not one of those songs is anything less than fucking amazing.
ANYWAY he seems to have his own 'artist' thing going on at the moment called The Dallas Austin Experience and one of the aforementioned Experience's songs is called 'Hot Girls In The Bathroom'. It's about attractive women taking drugs in the toilet, not fevered children shitting in a basin. It's great.
