We told you about the rumors a few months ago, and now we've got a confirmed lineup for the 2009 Treasure Island Festival (with most of the rumors turning out to be true). The two-day festival will be headlined by MGMT and the Flaming Lips . As with the past two years, the folks at Another Planet Entertainment kept the two days largely broken up by genre with electronic artists dominating Saturday's lineup and Sunday dedicated to more straight-forward indie. The lineup again includes a healthy dose [...]
Come October 17th and 18th, the Treasure Island Music Festival will return to San Francisco’s Treasure Island for its third go around. This particular year promises to feature two days of “stellar and diverse" music, with Saturday geared more toward the electric side of things, while Sunday will offer an indie-like feel. As a result, the folks behind Treasure Island have tapped MGMT, MSTRKRFT, Girl Talk, Dan Deacon, Passion Pit, Brazilian Girls, LTJ Bukeum, DJ Krush, Murs, Frederico Aubele, The Streets, The Limousines and Crown City Rockers for Saturday and The Flaming Lips, The Decemberists, Beirut, [...]

![[JBI!] TBE Presents: Fever For The Flavor – A Mix for L.A.](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1811395_lg.jpg)
Los Angeles, the city of a million legends and a million disappointed tourists. Its too big to take in by foot and too confusing and traffic-packed to really see by car. It really isn't a city at all, but more of a collection of cities that all happen to touch each other and give the illusion of being unified. However, while the city/ies may be sprawling and disjointed, they share a role as muse for great music. As I have simmered here this past two weeks I have been compiling my list of great L.A. songs. Some tribute, some complaint, [...]
After four long days, which featured torrential downpours, grueling heat, lots of mud, and an over a hundred of music's best acts, the 2009 edition of the Bonnaroo Music Festival is now and will forever will be a memory. Join us, while we remember and review the festival that was Bonnaroo '09... Pouring rain and ferocious lighting served as the backdrop for most of Bonnaroo day one, making for some extremely muddy situations. Yet for those willing to brave the elements on Thursday evening, there were highlights to be found. [...]
Image From Here I think a lot. Maybe too much. But that is just how my mind is geared. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about this thing called control . Basically, it seems to me, that my whole life is just out of control. Or another way of putting it is - I have no control over things in my life. Sure, people say, worry about the things you can control and don't worry about the things you can't control. Yeah, that would be nice but I can't seem to adopt [...]
Bonnaroo Day 1: Thursday, June 11... Bonnaroo , or the Roo as some like to call it (although Colin Meloy will tell you that anytime anybody calls it that, a kitten dies), is unreal if you have never been to a camping music festival . The festival is just as much about what happens off the stage as what happens on it. In fact, sometimes what happens out in the crowd or the campgrounds is even more interesting than the music you hear on stage. [...]
Words By Prop Jay Some people see circa 2003 as a dark period that passed through Hip-Hop: The Jansport Era. I gave a chance to the music many people were either oblivious to or quick to dismiss through ignorance. While I can't front and pretend it was the best of times for H.E.R., it was a breath of fresh air from the Shiny Suit era. In fact, some memorable music came out of it and there are quite a few tracks that still get play if I have time to do some reminiscing. Here [...]
Opening day at Bonnaroo kicks off with a smaller group of artists than the other days, as fans...
Funny interview with Murs, where he actually runs the show instead of Buddyhead's correspondent. That's saying something. I WILL FUCK YOU UP: BUDDYHEAD VS MURS from Buddyhead on Vimeo .
Rjd2 is one badass dude, he released Deadringer in 2002 (one of my favorite albums of all time), and roughly one year later he released this ten track gem otherwise known as The Horror EP. Don't get me wrong, Deadringer is a multi-level musical masterpiece but I think The Horror EP is a little better. This EP has ten top tier tracks, revisits some of the best moments of Deadringer and further more, it features some of Rj's best beats. I feel as though if this was [...]
Big moves are being made over at TBE HQ and one of them is this, The Slow Burn Summer mix, our first DJ mix by local favorite "DJ be" who was kind enough to blend up a fresh-to-death 60 minutes of straight fire. Put in on your iPod, cell phone, CDR, or whatever and then slip on your shimmy-shoes. The mix is a single file because this thing is too fresh to be skipping tracks. I have, however, embedded a timecoded track-list in the lyrics section of the ID3 tag so you can at least know where you [...]
Gay Witch Abortion play on the Miss, Slug and Murs to release new album & next week's best new releases.
[A heaping helping of birthday wishes to David Byrne, and now to capsulize a busy night in the city:] Even if you steer clear of the boldfaced names playing the bigger rooms — Mos Def at the House of Blues, Murs and Tech N9ne at the Key Club, the Indigo Girls at the El Rey Theatre — tonight has a lot to offer. Three of L.A. most promising up-and-comers, Afternoons , the Happy Hollows and Warpaint , combine to fill [...]
Crazy, Ill, Dope, Stupid, Sick...(how many adjectives is that??) new track from Bossasaurus featuring Murs and James Blunt. This month dinosaurs (notably sub-species Bossa saurus) are giving dogs (Canis lupis) a run for their money as man’s best friend with the release of the remix of "Everything" by Murs featuring James Blunt. Enjoy! Download: Bossasaurus feat. Murs & James Blunt - "Everything" Remix
About a month worth of quality hip hop videos for you here. The highlight is the video from Kain (remember that white dude who signed to Bad Boy in 2001?). He writes his "I'm a failure without you Puff" song. Probably the last time we will ever here from him again. Poor kid. Imagine coming so close you can taste it.. only to have it ripped right out from under you. LOL. That's why I am for fortune.. not fame. (Not that I'll have either any time soon). Videos from: Kurious, MF DOOM, Mos Def, Reflection Eternal, Invincible, [...]
