These mixes were posted in January and February 2010, the winter of our discontent. Seriously, the blog was on life support during this time. We're through that storm now. 2010 was such a great year for music, and these early mixes show why. Many of the tracks were available in late 2009, but appeared on 2010 releases. Tracks are from late October through late November 2009 Gapless mix ripped at 256k VBR. Download all tracks in one zip file [...]
Well, we're just about halfway with the reposts... Today, we feature volumes 9 and 10, which were originally posted in August 2009. Volume 10 holds a special place in this blog's history, because that's when Aaron from Tsururadio offered to post the mix on his blog. That started a bit of following and it has grown ever since. Aaron's moved onto Tsuruphoto, following his passion for photography. He now has a nudie-zine featuring some edgy but tasteful art, several videos to promote the zine and Tsuruphoto, and the occasional mixtape. We owe a big thanks for his early support, and [...]

Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned pulled out all the punches with their muscular sound and street savvy creds at Pete's Candy Store on Saturday night. Clearly their new material had more might and less folk. The heavy brass metal mash, double percussion and a slew of hefty instruments trumped up the acoustic guitar, banjo and violin to make way for an evolving new direction. Sgt. Dunbar brings the street into the venue making music that is alive, in the moment and vibrant. [...]

Finals are coming next week and I must say I'm pretty stoked to have everything aligned so I get out on Wednesday (especially considering last semester I had a Saturday final) and plan to spend a good part of the next week studying (that's the plan at least). Here's a little mix of stuff that will be on my playlist this next week or so. Yann Tiersen — La Valse D'Amélie (Version Piano) (Found this on the blisslist a while ago, one of my favorites movies ever, just watched it last week) [...]
In an effort to somewhat merge the AD show on XMU with that of the blog proper, this is the first of what will most likely become a recurring series. After the jump, check a selection of 27 (mostly) new-ish tracks I've been spinning over the past few weeks - 1/2 of which have not [...]

Sgt Dunbar's Hobo Banned may be a collective form Albany, NY but their sound is more akin to the strange bouillabaisse that's been brewing in the New Orleans Bywater neighborhood of late: 2 parts continental gypsy, 1 part Balkan folk, a pinch of Swordfishtrombones, with a healthy dash of On Avery Island. I've been spinning [...]

Blogophilia Vol. 9 This edition of Blogophilia features new tracks off unreleased albums from Arctic Monkeys and the Flaming Lips, a couple of rockers from the Henry Clay People and We Were Promised Jetpacks (yet another good Scottish band, Scotland's best export is Rock-n-Roll I guess), and a subtle Blogophilia tribute to John Hughes with a cover of Pretty in Pink by the National.

Sgt Dunbar & the Hobo Banned - "Everything Is, Pt. III" . Messy. The kind of guy whose bracelets always break, whose watches slip off his wrist and shatter on the asphalt. Very good at climbing walls. Favourite movie is The Great Escape . One day he was buying milk and interrupted a robbery. He got beat up good, but saved the owner $400. He gets milk for free, now. He brags about this to his friends. "Not everyone gets free milk," he says. Sometimes he stops mid-way through: "Not everyone gets fr-" he says, reaching to catch his [...]

Typically, by now I've given up caring about the music schmooze fest going on next week known as SXSW , but this year is different. I've somehow managed to convince my day job that they needed to send me down to Austin to partake in the massive Texas orgy of booze, BBQ and bands. With a mind-numbing number of bands playing over the course of the fest, it's a daunting task making heads or tails of what to see. Here's songs from six bands that I intend to check out. Enjoy and have a great weekend all. [...]
Sgt. Dunbar and the Hobo Banned miraculously packed all eight members and an army of instruments onto the small stage Saturday night at Pete's Candy Store . The band twisted and contorted their bodies to accommodate the large expanse of the trombone or the scale of the tuba. Even in cramped quarters their musical competence was not compromised. The sound of full-bodied percussion and brass burst with energy. Sgt. Dunbar delightfully gave it their all as the crowd chanted for it not to end ! [...]
