It is definitely Autumn. The weather is getting a bit cooler, kids are back in school and bands are out on their fall tours. It's the last hurrah down the beach. The Dewey Beach Music Conference starts tonight and runs through Saturday. With over 100 bands from all over the country at 7 different venues, it is sure to have something for everyone. The best part is all nighttime shows are absolutely free! Local acts playing that we have covered are Philly favs [...]
En marzo del año pasado publiqué un post sobre In Flight Radio, grupo al que acababa de conocer y que me había dejado un gran sabor de boca tras escuchar sus temas disponibles en myspace, así que poco después compré su disco y la sensación no pudo ser más favorable, con unas canciones intensas a la vez que melódicas y una potente voz al frente a cargo de su cantante Peira. Recientemente han publicado su segundo trabajo, "The Sound Inside", el cual no desmerece al anterior, sino todo lo contrario, nuevamente nos permite disfrutar de buenas canciones, a [...]
I often make light of the fact that I don't have health insurance , and haven't had an ounce of coverage since leaving my big-time corporate job in February, but the truth is, its been kind of scaring the crap out of me lately. Not only have I had to ride solo on some harsh headcolds and stomach bugs, I also have a big trip to Mexico coming up at the end of this month, and god knows what I'll catch there, especially from that tasty tap water everyone's been telling me about.

Songs That Might Otherwise Pass You By Jaymay, "Gray or Blue" This is one of the prettiest sort of-maybe requited love songs I've heard. The xylophone accompaniment to the xylophone lyric is a nice touch and I love the change in the end (the "crazy eyes have u" part). It's wistful, but not wimpy. The emotions are strong: she's lamenting a would-be lover, making her case to him, though he may

Unlike a large amount of my countrymen and countrywomen, I am not a hockey fan. I harbour a few reasons for such a sentiment, one of them being hockey fans themselves. Especially Montreal hockey fans. And they showed off their love of the game again last night by heading downtown to wreck up the place : looting shops, damaging cars, and torching police cruisers. And it's not like they won the Stanley Cup or anything: they won a Game Seven match in the playoff qualifying round, for the love of Pete. They're just moving [...]
This is yet another packed week of releases. I can recommend M83's new one, Saturdays=Youth, as well as You Have No Idea What You Are Getting Into , for all my electro fans out there. Also in the pile of really good releases, are albums from Culture Reject, In Flight Radio and Ours. M83 Saturdays=Youth - Full Album Stream Does It Offend You, Yeah? You Have No Idea What [...]
As DJ El Toro reminded you yesterday , this coming Saturday, April 19, is Record Store Day , when record stores around the country "will simultaneously link and act as one with the purpose of celebrating the culture and unique place that they occupy both in their local communities and nationally." What better way to prepare for Record Store Day than start picking up some new releases now? True, this week is a bit lighter than last week , but only just a bit. There are still plenty of worthwhile releases to choose from. Just [...]
It appears to be another solid week of new releases. So if you're heading down to your local record store here are a few SDM recommendations. Let us know what you pick up. Also let us know if we've left anything off our list. New Releases, Cover Art, and MP3's after the jump...

Summer is heating up and so is the Philly music scene. Friday night I'll be at the Guster and Ben Kweller show on Festival Pier . Chris Cornell is at the Borgata in Atlantic City, so gamble a little, then rock out. Or you could just wait until Sunday and check him out at the Electric Factory . The Grand Opera House in Wilmington is hosting a sold out White Stripes show. If you don't have tickets to that show, good luck. They are going for [...]
Sigo conociendo grupos interesantes gracias a myspace, en esta ocasión me encontraba en el perfil de Static of the Gods y ví un comentario que le había dejado este otro grupo, entré en su página y empezó a sonar come back and stay, una de esas canciones que con escucharlas una sola vez sabes que merece la pena, una bonita melodía que empieza de una forma suave recordando el sonido de Dido para ir ganando en intensidad con la entrada de la batería, a esto tenemos que añadirle un estribillo pegadizo y una gran voz a cargo de [...]
