Aw snap! It's summertime, biatches! Happy summer. :) Ever since I can remember, summer nights have sparked something odd within me. It's like, I GOTTA GET UP AND GO MAN!!! I dunno. Maybe Colorado just has so few hot nights that when I get 'em, I gotta make good use, ya know? Hot nights remind me of lower climes, places where you can be out all night in your shorts and flip-flops and not freeze... This phenomenon may have its origins when my neighborhood buddies and I would have sleepovers that lasted multiple nights... we [...]
Last summer, I noted that I'd watched Major League Baseball's All-Star game for the first time in years. This summer, I mostly ignored the game again. I watched a bit of the home run derby competition (and what I watched was uneventful). I spent most of the time trying to figure out if David Ortiz had actually gotten busted for performance-enhancing drugs, if he had been investigated for such hijinks, or if there had merely been rumors. (that grew wearying and I lost interest in the contest) I [...]
I can safely bet that when you hear the word gate , you don't immediately think of Phil Collins. Sadly, myself and plenty other recording engineers out there might. It's pretty normal to think of a gate as something that opens and closes, allowing things to pass in and out. Well, in the audio world, this is exactly what a gate does. Let me sum it up really easily for you. Everyone knows the badass drum part on "In The Air Tonight". DO DO , DO DO, do [...]
It's Friday and I'm afraid there is no Top 5 Most Played Songs list this week because I lost all the play count numbers when my computer crashed. Yes, my computer flipped out in exactly 3 months and 5 days. That, my friends, is a personal record for me. See that picture on the left? That's what my computer would have looked like if it were a desktop and if I wasn't able to return it for a full refund. The nice computer store people even threw in a few oatmeal raisin cookies just to [...]
Well yesterday as we know the new Ipone was released and it was crazy at Apple stores everywhere.I myself am a droid user but wonder what all the fuss is about its just a damn phone.But then again technology rules us.When they say the machines will rise there is a very good chance that is true.Aside from the craziness of the new iphone we were wondering if it would be worth our time to make Feral Party Kids radio app for the itunes app store in other words all music on our site streamed to your mobile device anytime.Would you [...]
My Mom and Aunt in 1983 I always try to figure out why I listen to soo much music that has a soft flow to it, then I think about what songs I wanted to hear the most out of my mom's music collection. She always seemed to have these great low key parties with close friends when we came to the States, I remember just laying there in the dark with the light and sounds coming from the cracked door, the tone was perfect, especially an uninterrupted front to back listen of The [...]

Back to the grind on this sunny Monday. I had a blast this weekend in Tulsa. Party time! On my way back home I just barely missed the massive hail storm in Oklahoma City. It demolished the town. If you're in Tulsa this coming weekend, I'll be back to play at Soundpony. Come party with me! Here's some good music to help you get your week started right!

I know I just recently posted this song on Mother's Day, but man alive... there are some songs that just hit you in your gut like a punch from Mike Tyson as he barrels at you with zero friction. I had forgotten just how powerful a song Phil Collins' 1984 chart-topper, "Against All Odds (Take a Look At Me Now)" is. I've been studying and listening to it for the past hour. My iPod was on shuffle and once the song came on, I had to repeat it... then again, then again, then again... until finally I [...]
Happy Mother's Day! Like many of you, I don't know what I would do without my mom. She's been with me since my birth (duh!) and has given me everything that a mom can give. I still talk to my mom every day and the amazing thing is that I can still hear the excitement and happiness in her voice whenever I call. After all these years, my mom isn't bored or sick of me yet... and that's saying something about my mom, not me. A few weeks ago, my mom stopped by my house [...]
È un Phil Collins letteralmente fuori dai gangheri, quello che si è presentato l'altro giorno nella redazione della prestigiosa rivista musicale Rolling Stone per rilasciare un'intervista che, tra il serio e il faceto, potrebbe sancire ipoteticamente la fine della sua carriera: "Ho speso una vita intera nella musica e c'è ancora gente che mi critica per partito preso. Perchè dovrei continuare a sorbirmi il loro trattamento? Non sono mica uno che ha bisogno di denaro. Se in futuro mi verrà ancora voglia di fare musica, comporrò le prossime canzoni nel buio dello [...]
I have a faint suspicion that the entire Dallas Morning News article about Phil Collins and his love for the Alamo is nothing more than a long, elaborate pisstake: British singer, songwriter and drummer Phil Collins has won seven Grammy Awards and sold nearly 40 million solo albums in the United States. But perhaps his biggest passion isn't music, it's the Alamo. Admittedly, the idea that Collins doesn't love music as much as something else is quite credible - indeed, for much of his later career, it wouldn't be a [...]
It's time again our weekly series where we honor the top songs over the last 50 years that start with a specific letter of the alphabet. This week we move on to the letter "E". Our list this week includes an "easy" song, an "evil" song, and a song that's "en fuego". And if you're smugly guessing "Eleanor Rigby" is on this list, guess again. Don't agree with us on our selections? That's okay. Just leave your comments below, and don't forget we'll be doing the letter "F" next Friday. So if there's a song you [...]
It looks like Mr. Brightside is striking out on his own. Brandon Flowers, lead singer of The Killers, will be recording as a solo performer, he announced on The Killers' website. More like it: FROM THE NEWS NEST: Bloc Party's Kele goes solo and more. FROM THE NEWS NEST: Katy Perry gets slimed and more. FROM THE NEWS NEST: MGMT releases new zany video and more.
"I'm gonna make you a mixtape. You like Phil Collins?" "I've got two ears and a heart don't I?" -Tracy Morgan & Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock Phil Collins is back! And as you can see by the unsuspecting youth to the right, he's Going Back to his roots. The Phil Collins hype machine is rolling, there's an exclusive track on his website, a new album on the way, and next month the legendary singer/drummer will be playing four exclusive shows in New York. [...]
My love of Genesis knows no bounds. I even own some of those solo albums from Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins. And I don't care what anyone says, but Collins has written and sang some damn fine pop and rock tunes. Thus I'm a little excited for his first release in 8 years (since 2002's disappointing Testify ). Going Back is set for release on September 13th, and will be a covers album of Motown and soul classics. Ahead of the album's release, Collins is to play four shows in June under the banner [...]
Deliziosa l'immagine di Phil Collins giovincello, cover provvisoria del nuovo album dell'artista britannico, la cui uscita é prevista per settembre. Dopo otto anni lontano dagli studi di registrazione finalmente l'ex componente dei Genesis, torna con un lavoro in cui rende omaggio al genere soul che tanto ha significato ha avuto sulla sua formazione musicale. Il titolo é "Going Back" che sarà celebrato in una serie di concerti al Roseland Ballroom di New York City dal 22 al 25 giugno. Gli spettacoli annunciati come "Up close and personal: Phil Collins plays 60s soul" saranno caratterizzati dai brani soul del [...]
Earlier this week, Rolling Stone launched their latest installment, dubbing this as a special issue on the "State of Rock" . Featured within the pages is a piece titled "40 Reasons to Get Excited About Music" , but alas, the compilation did little to titillate, especially with yawners like Black Eyed Peas and Miley Cyrus, along with "duh, we already know about 'em" nods to M.I.A. and The Roots.
