by bmac I really like this week's mixtape. A lot of foot-tapping jams. As always you can download/stream each track individually or grab them all in one place with the zip (below). I've also added a new help screen for those of you who've had some trouble downloading music from QC. Have a good week, homies. Get em' all at once - QC Mixtape 4.zip [...]

Remember when FMLY let you know about Devendra Banhart's side-project Megapuss last month? Good call. Well to follow up with that I'd like to let you guys know what Yeah Yeah Yeah's singer and heartthrob Karen O does on her free time. You can catch Karen O performing sol O at two NY gigs under the moniker Native Korean Rock. This is not a Yeah Yeah Yeah's show and this is not a performance of the leaked K.O. At Home - Karen will be performing love songs which she has written over the last two [...]
Karen O is indulging in a spot of side-activity, in the form of Native Korean Rock and the Fishnets . It's nothing to do with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs; at the moment, it consists of two live shows in New York on July 21st (= some shaky cameraphone footage on YouTube from July 22nd).

Yeah Yeah Yeahs singer Karen O has been recording what she calls "a body of love songs" under the name Native Korean Rock over the past two years, and now she's ready to show them off to the world; four of them are on her MySpace page, and they're stark, spare affairs with deliberate vocals that definitely fall under the "Melodramatic Popular Song" rubric that MySpace has given her. She'll be performing them live with "a motley crew of NYC natives"; there's a show scheduled for next week at the teeny Brooklyn bar Union Pool, and I'm pretty sure that [...]

She shares the following deets: *Native Korean Rock is a side project of mine comprised of a body of love songs written over the last two years, to be performed with a motley crew of NYC natives. Expect high drama, high stakes in two intimate performances. Does Native Korean Rock have anything to do with Yeah Yeah Yeahs? NO Are these the leaked demos of years ago? NO* Download a YYYs track at bottom. NKR plays Brooklyn's Union Pool on 7/21. Purchase tix here. Visit NKR on MySpace. [...]

The Yeah Yeah Yeah's front woman has a new side project " Native Korean Rock " and will be performing (2 shows/1 night) at the Union Pool in Brooklyn on the 21st of July. Here are the details we have on the show. You can also get a listen of these very impressive songs on the bands MySpace page. They only have 67 friends so add them too! Ha Ha :) [ Native Korean Rock ] Native Korean Rock is a side project of mine comprised [...]
by hernan harmonium Consider this my introduction or my four paragraph thesis. Either way, the circle of societal trends is like a hamster wheel in my brain right now. I flip out flicking through channels, hearing "indie" bands suddenly selling products to a myriad of demographics that hipsters have run from, yet call when they're out of money. Are music coordinators in mainstream media suddenly the hippest corporate liaisons alive? Have indie blogs promoted their favorite bands so well and extensively that music, once thought of as a special secret now permeates [...]
Each month, I make a playlist consisting of an artist of every letter of the alphabet. This month, every song is either a cover, remix, or mash up. This is July 2008: 1. Don't Speak (No Doubt Cover) - Anna Maria Jopek - Alternative - Crazy Covers 2-Beautiful Covers Download It Here I must admit, I absolutely love the original version and lounge musik so that's the reasoning behind this one. 2. Joga [ft. Ben Barnett] (Björk Cover) - Ben Gibbard - Acoustic - Rare Tracks [...]

Solista de la Yeah Yeah Yeahs a facut recent un cover la piesa Highway 61 Revisited, urmand ca acesta sa poata fi auzit pe coloana sonora a lui I'm Not There , filmul biografic despre viata lui Dylan. Piesa a fost preluata si de alti cantareti de-a lungul timpului, printre cele mai reusite versiuni numarandu-se si cea a lui PJ Harvey din 1992. Cel putin pe mine, Karen nu m-a dezamagit nici de aceasta data. =) MP3: Karen O - Highway 61 Revisited [...]
From what will appear on the Yeah Yeah Yeahs ' upcoming Is Is EP comes this sensational track, "Down Boy." The band's attempt to capture and sustain suspense throughout the live video is becoming one of the key reasons the band has grown on me as like it has. Ever since "Miles Away" I've been hoping for another such song that snowballs into a conclusive piece of hidden frustration...and to some degree this song relieves that need. While it isn't necessarily as hard driving as many of the group's songs through the song [...]

Karen O and Kool Keith did a track together. Yes you read that right, it was supposedly for a porno (+10 cool points) and they're talking about "ice cream" throughout the track. Go tell your friends. And download here: Karen O and Kool Keith - Teaser karen o , Kool Keith , mp3
