Tonight … tonight … tonight:

‣ L.A.’s favorite track-suited Norwegians, Datarock, are sprinting across the U.S. in suport of their new album “Music for Synchronization” and touting what they’ve called “the most extravagant single in the world,” the track “Catcher in the Rye.” The song is available on a 4GB USB stick – that also contains the album, an EP, 110 bonus tracks, 1,500 photos, an hour-long concert film and 20 music videos. Glowstick not included. Datarock parties at the Echoplex tonight, supported by Dirty Ghosts, Evan Voytas and Baertur.

‣ Great under-the-radar show downtown at La Cita: New Zealand trio Street Chant makes its L.A. debut. Raw, fuzzy pop-punk.
