Buena Vista Mix It was a struggle to get on top of the HDPP this week as I've been without internet for quite some time. Hopefully I haven't lost any listeners due to the delay. This week's list started from an oldie that I had forgotten about (Starlight Mints' "Buena Vista"), but upon hearing it last week, it sparked some really good memories. I just rode that wave to the 45 minute mark, and voila: this week's playlist! Stream the playlist below (or by clicking here ).

All good things, apparently, must come to an end. After a whopping three hours of "sleep" in which MEGABOAT rocks side to side (how is that even possible on a ship this big? Oh Sea, you are a powerful beast and I would bow to you if I didn't think it would make me puke) and "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT BANGING AT 9AM WHEN WE ONLY GOT TO BED 3 HOURS AGO?", Cabinmate Terri and I slowly arise and extricate ourselves from Casa Weezer to go hunting for Breakfast Goods. We wander, then I sit [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-15T11:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4063302/playlist-hump-day-power-play-2-15-2012/
Wild Cloud Nothings Editition This week's Hump Day Power Play started around two songs: Cloud Nothings' "No Future/No Past" and Wild Nothing's "Chinatown". From there, it only made sense to through in the likes of Yuck, Black Lips, and Beach Fossils. The result was a smooth mix of shoegaze and noise pop/garage, which is quite good, in my opinion... but you don't have to take my word for it ! Hear it by simply clicking here .

I saw this last week and the tune hasn't left my head. Imagine a less complicated Animal Collective blended with the afro-pop sensibility of Vampire Weekend and quirky dynamics of Das Racist . All that sounds pretty cool, but it's the chorus on this one that takes the, er, cake. Black Flute is out January 10th.

Not that many people released music videos in the first week of the year, though I can't quite figure out why. The world is back at work, it's cold outside, and we need flashy images to occupy our eyeballs this time of year. Do your job, makers of music videos! A few intrepid souls did, however, give us some pretty great videos this first year back. They're below.

Keepaway are playing a dangerous game with "Cake." Like, had this song come out in 20072s halcyon days of post-Animal Collective, African music obsessions, it would have found a comfortable home next to the other ... read more »]]> text/html 2011-12-16T20:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3935047/contest-keepaway-in-brooklyn/
