Whew, I snuck in under the wire on this one, didn't I? My goal was to get this up before the end of the year, and I just made it. No fooling around here, either. I'm doing this straightforward, by the books, from 10 to 1. These albums meant a lot to me this year. I played them backwards and forwards and loved them truly, madly, deeply. So with no further elaboration, I give you my top-ten favorite albums of 2007. 10. Blockhead -- Uncle Tony's Coloring Book [...]
Photo by David Greenwald Like the albums list, this is divided into the ranked, remarkably great stuff and the unranked, still really great stuff. Enjoy the last post of '07, folks - The Rawking will continue refusing to stop bright and early on Monday, January 7. The full list and MP3s galore after the jump! [Continue reading...] 1. UGK ft. Outkast - "Int'l Players Anthem (I Choose You)" : mp3 2. LCD Soundsystem - "All My Friends" : [...]
It took a few more days than expected, but i've finally finished working on our year-end albums list for 2007. It was a great year for music, as I feel like i've listened to more albums than I have in my entire life. Well, i'm exaggerating of course, but i've certainly went through more albums than in previous years. I'm actually really satisfied with how my list ultimately turned out, as it's pretty much on par with where my musical tastes have gone this entire year - which has been primarily indie pop. Some may frown at the lack of [...]
No theme on this mix, just 13 songs we can't stop listening to. Enjoy. Download entire mix (.ZIP) Tracklist (MP3's): Lykke Li - Little Bit New Buffalo - Emotional Champ Destroyer - Foam Hands Wild Sweet Orange - Wrestle With God [...]
Sometimes things simply slip by, you know what I mean? Could be there was too much going on at the time to pay attention or I wasn't ready for it when it presented itself. That happens to me all the time with music, actually. So I apologize to anyone who pointed out New Buffalo 's album Somewhere, Anywhere when it came out in August. Somehow it slipped right by me. I finally "heard" it when I was searching for songs for yesterday's post. [...]
I was inundated with emails over the weekend from dozens of people who were looking for the music from Thursday night's Grey's Anatomy. Sorry for having a life, folks. Please keep in mind that this is just a hobby. Anywho...the music was good, the episode was just so-so for me. How many fans of The Office enjoyed seeing Roy survive his parachute fall? I always liked the shit out of Roy
BEIRUT - Nantes - from The Flying Club Cup envoyé par flyingclubcup Gros gros mois d'octobre après un milieu d'année plutôt calme au niveau des sorties. Très bon pour les oreilles, un peu moins pour le porte-monnaie, malgré le nouveau Radiohead, l'évènement du mois voire de l'année, obtenu pour 0€ (oui, et j'ai pas honte de le dire... je vois pas pourquoi il faudrait payer deux fois la même chose). Une playlist qui commence avec le petit génie Beirut , qui a enregistré avec [...]

Montreal-based Stars come to Philly Wednesday night in support of new album In Our Bedroom After The War . This show has been moved from The Starlight Ballroom to The Troc . All tickets will be honored! Joining them is Australian singer-songwriter New Buffalo , who has written for Feist and tours with Broken Social Scene. Stars - The Night Starts Here New Buffalo - City and Sea (Lady Nameless)
So this is the moment I've been waiting for all week. Friday. The day. The last day. Time to go cash my 'lil check and hop on over to Beermart(not the actual name of the store, but it sounds better than Liquor Pump, no...huh...why am I writing all this stuff in parentheses?). You get the idea. There's something about Beer on Fridays. It's match made in heaven...or maybe Germany. It's a night where the weekends just begun and you can drink to your hearts content(or limit) while watching some sports event. [...]
The first thing most of you may think when you hear New Buffalo, aka Sally Seltmann, is how much she sounds like Feist. Well, to beat you to the punch, I thought the same thing and found out she co-wrote "1, 2, 3, 43 with Feist, so it only makes sense her album Somewhere, Anywhere sounds very similar to Feist's new one. It's not as upbeat as "1, 2, 3, 43, but overall is a happier sounding album than Feist's. All Feist comparisons aside though, this is simply a lovely album full of piano and Seltmann's beautifully calm [...]
I'd have to say the fact that she's married to Darren Seltmann of the Avalanches is really cool and rather interesting. I'm not saying you gotta make the same style music but yea...I guess I'm kind of saying that. Sally Seltmann has been New Buffalo for actually quite a while but has been on and off and working with different artists like Jens Lekman . In late March, off the Arts&Crafts label, Sally kicked out her new album Somewhere, Anywhere . We love our synth-pop tunes and Sally does it well with [...]
New Buffalo helped take my Monday blues away...This Monday was not like most Monday's as instead of waking up at the crack of dawn to go to work I had to wake up at the crack of dawn and serve Jury Duty...Oh my dear friends this was my first experience and oh how I wish it was my last. No one wanted to be there, I didn't want to be there but alas all of us were summoned to the courts of hell to serve justice! Thank goodness it is over...Now I can rest assured I won't get another Jury [...]
Sally Seltmann moved to the seashore to write and record Somewhere, Anywhere , her second album under the name New Buffalo . You can almost smell the salt air in the songs languid and fluid movements. A native of Melbourne, Australia, the album has already been heralded as one of the best of 2007 in her homeland, and is now getting much deserved attention on this side of the globe. Though it's been two years since the release of her last album, Seltmann has been far from idle--she wrote "1234" [...]

Today was a big release date with Architecture in Helsinki, The New Pornographers, Josh Ritter, Earlimart, Minus the Bear, M.I.A., and Rilo Kiley all sharing space on the new release shelf of your favorite record store. But these days you can listen to an album weeks before its street date if you so desire and the cries of "what's next?" start before the ink has dried on the digipaks...the big music wheel keeps on turning and CD's keep on burning. So let's take a look at a few upcoming releases. Sambassadeur is putting out a new single on [...]

cheer me up thank you www.newbuffalo.net Ok so we just had a pretty crappy day yesterday: our car got broken into. Arrrgh. We were pretty irritated but then we realized it could have been worse, because while they smashed our back window, they didn't actually end up taking anything in the car even though both our cell phones were in there AND a wallet. Also they didn't steal the entire car, so that's good too. Anyway, I came home last night after talking to the police (never fun) [...]
