When we began throwing together the 'hilarious' image for this post in photoshop, it was pretty bright and springlike. Now it looks like it might be about to pour, but nevermind for Mint Royale 's music will reinstate a suitably sunny disposition. Alarmingly the BBC review of the group's greatest hits 'Pop is' also reads alongside " played by....Bargain Hunt ". Four words that could ultimately be a death sentence for any group, but not for one as joyous as the Mancunian duo. Mint Royale are a band we keep on coming back to and with good [...]

Ones To Watch in 2011 1. Claire Maguire 'Hope There's Someone' By Claire Maguire Claire seems to be on every ones tip sheet for 2011, but with good reason, her voice is incredible, in fact it's f**king IMMENSE, quite unique and was surely created in a musical hadron collider in which soul and blues collided....or something. It's dark, dramatic and almost otherworldly at [...]

Popop

Edgar Wright ja tema looming on ammune Popopi lemmik ja õnneks tema uusim film Scott Pilgrim vs The World teenis auga ära koha Shawn of The Deadi, Hot Fuzzi ja isegi Spacedi kõrval. Ja parem oleks, et need kõik sul vaadatud oleks. Lisaks filmidele ja seriaalidele on Wright aastate eest teinud ka mõned muusikavideod, ühe neist fantastilisele Mint Royale'ile. Ja see video on täielik maiuspala - peaosas Noel Fielding ning kaasa teevad tema Mighty Booshi partner Julian Barratt ning Spacedi kangelased Nick Frost ja Michael Smiley . Mint Royale - Blue Song
This post is the first of a series of hard and fast posts enumerating the top remixes of the 20002s. I tallied this list at this time last year, but didn't write up the posts. Since there are no rules about such matters in my book, I decided to put them out there now. I [...]

'Push it Away'/ 'Waste of Time' By Seerauber Jenny . "Firefly" By Seeräuber Jenny (free download). With my impending unemployment about to explode all over me like a shit filled water balloon, my email inbox has been the subject of intense scrutiny of late as I surf the veritable tsunami of job offers and business proposals. To be quite honest the only petition of any real substance thus far has been from [...]
If you are going to sing out loud, might as well sing about singing! What? Here's a collection of tunes all about singing! Sing - Blur Minimalistic masterpiece was both on Blur's 1991 album, Leisure as well as on the soundtrack for the 1996 movie Trainspotting. Blur is currently giving away the new track, Fool's Day, which [...]
New Video: Mint Royale - Blue Song (2006) Video By: Edgar Wright Reblog From: katiepierce : Mint Royale - Blue Song Music video featuring my favorite Brits Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt of The Mighty Boosh as well as Nick Frost from Spaced, Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz. So apparently this came out in 2006, and given my love of Noel Fielding I'm ashamed to admit I've never seen it. So a deeply heartfelt [...]
Despite being ahead of Andy only slightly in tracks used to this point, he is rather far ahead of me in actual time used. I don't think he prefers songs of greater length in general, it more has to do with his use of an entire John Coltrane album in one post. At [...]

These should have been out a while ago. A recent Wordpress bug has made them miss their scheduled posting time:( 80. Body Language - Mandy vs. Booka Shade I'm not sure that this track is going to stand the test of time, but it certainly speaks for a place in time back in 2005. In a way, this track captures the essence of the culture that loved it so much, and will forever stir the memories in many of the dance floors of this decade. [...]
Wow! Two posts in two days! Check out my style! Tonight is nothing buy amazing awesome spectacular music. I'd like to say that's always the case here, but we all know that's not true - I did once put up a cover of "Tutti Frutti" by Sting after all. Mint Royale Shake Me Shake Me (The Light Remix) Okay, am I crazy or is this song sampling George Harrison's "What Is Love"? Listen for it, it comes in around 2:20, right after the female voice. It [...]

Feeling a bit nostalgic, here are a couple of tunes from 10 years ago that maybe you missed. And even if you didn't miss them, it's always nice to be reminded. Mint Royale – Don't Falter (mp3) from On the Ropes According to their Wikipedia page , Mint Royale is not the jangly, female fronted band they led me to believe they are. In fact, they are a still-kicking big beat duo in the vein of The Propellerheads, Chemical Brothers, etc. The girl is [...]

Busy as HELL week last week, but now that I'm on my spring break or as they like to call it "reading week", I'll have a bit more time to post. I'll start off with introducing the video above from a Monster.com TV commercial which had me laughing literally the whole day. Yes, I totally just linked their site, not as a plug but homage for making a great commercial. I think there's a little bit of that keyboardist in all of us. The song is based off of the Real McCoy's Another [...]

a few years back, i wrote a series of posts around valentine's day that expressed my cynicism about the commercialism of february 14, and how it should really just be another day. i still believe that every day should be a day that you adore your valentine, but my state of mind is a little different these days. i suppose it's all a matter of perspective. maybe every day can still be valentine's day, but february 14th can be just a little more special than the rest. as i have [...]

I feel bad about missing last week's mix, but that's what happens when the summer is winding down and you have way more things to do than you have time. With that said, here is this week's. It is a party mix to get everyone ready to dance at Rock and Roll Hotel tonight.

Florida Street Warehouse ChinUp Bar, 2008 I can't sleep. I woke up at 5:30 am which is normal for me, if I was at my last job. I went out last night, so I guess it's my body way of saying to me, you treat me like shit, i'm not going to let you sleep, well. I have a slight dull pain somewhere in my brain. It's causing me to use words like, jellyfish, trombone, and aficionado, which is difficult when you are trying to send work emails. I used the words by saying that I was [...]
