This year I had much greater difficulty putting together a list of my favorite local albums than I did a non-local list. And that makes me proud. Not proud for myself, of course, but of this city and the wealth of musical talent it produces. There were more genuinely great local albums produced in 2011 than I can ever remember in my eight years living here, and narrowing them all down to a reasonable number proved to be a much more arduous task than I ever could have thought. And yet, here we are. The caveats and criteria [...]
The N.E.C. Pineapple [Pretty Ambitious Records, 2011] 4 out of 5 stars Purchase This Album: Pretty Ambitious Way back in January I posted a review for Mood Rings' excellent debut EP, Sweater Weather Forever , one that — among other things — established the EP's second track, "Indian Hills," as the benchmark for local music singles in 2011. To be clear, I was speaking purely in pop terms; [...]

Well the weather this week has been shit but last week building up to a 34°C day on Monday has had me slipping into a universe where there is only Moodymann . I can't think of any better music in the world to listen to while driving around on a belting hot day than some of KDJ's jazzy grooves. Not so much the techno 12s, but the albums just DO IT when the sun is out. 'People' is surely one of the juiciest jams in existence, with gorgeous sax baking away and Rhodes noodling about on top of a [...]

I believe that this is the first time that we have had a Pineapple-infused (or even flavored) vodka. The genesis of our receiving this bottle came in a get-tgoether that we hosted. Where we have a number of different vodkas on our shelves, the one attendee asked us if we had a bottle fo pineapple [...]
We hate to see them go, but we realize all good things must someday end. We will miss them, but look forward to their future projects. A statement from them, and their final show info is below. Farewell, Lucky Pineapple. Stay lucky. From Lucky Pineapple: After nearly 7 years, Lucky Pineapple has decided to cease to exist… As a band, anyway. While this is due primarily to the decisions of several members to leave the band to focus on other projects, it's also probably something that's [...]
John King talks to Drew Miller about playing with Lucky pineapple and Another 7 Astronauts, and on new projects, favorite bands, and summer dreams. JK- in February, Lucky Pineapple announced their last show on may 20th (at headliners w/ Ultra Pulverize), what brought on the break up? DM- I think it had a lot to do with the fact that we each wanted something different from the band. That was the seed of all the problems. And in any relationship, once you reach a point where you loose faith in what is [...]
3. keiki201uke / Ukulele Beatles Medley Another duo. This girl plays the ukulele well for a five-year old. "Love Me Do" and "A Hard Day's Night" are especially my favorites, particularly when she hits the high note in the former. That in and of itself is worth being showcased here.

I just got back from Prairie Cat 's tour kickoff show, which was a enjoyable night of catchy pop rock from both the headliner and opener Pineapple . Even though I've already posted a song from Prairie Cat's 2009 album It Began/Ended with Sparks , this seemed like a good opportunity to post another. "Just Cuz" is a melancholic piano pop tune about expiry dating, as singer/songwriter Cary Pratt mourns the end of a summer romance. We've all been there, or at the very least watched a movie about other [...]

Lyrics in dance music must be one of the hardest things to master. Make them too simple and you end up sounding corny. Make them too advanced and nobody will ever get the faintest idea about where you're heading. It's an outstanding achievement when you've actually made your lyrics compliment your track, which the following tunes are perfect examples of. Logg - I Know You Will (Lary Levan Remix) First Love - Party Lights Pineapples - Come on [...]

Two nights ago was what was probably my last concert of the summer here in Lisbon. I went with friends to see Bonde do Role at Lux . I didn't know quite what to expect out of it, having only listened to parts of With Lasers and hearing from my Brazilian friends that they recently added two new MCs, one of whom was a pro, and the other who won an American Idol style contest. I wound up being blown away. When performing, Gorky (the big dude) would start up [...]
