One of the oldest traditions around these here parts is the All Things Go Valentine's Day Mixtape, or the mixtapes in general, which haven't been featured here since last year's third installment of the Cannabliss Mixtape. I thought I'd return with, in my opinion, the most carefully crafted and entertaining mixtape to date. Ladies and gents, your 2009 edition, the All Things Go Valentine's Day Mixtape Volume IV. Norman Blake kicks off the love-fest with his unbearably sweet version of one of the all-time classics, "You Are My Sunshine", featured originally on the O' Brother Where Art [...]

Here's what South Carolina band Slow Runner (sheepishly) says it about itself: This is what we hope our music sounds like: interesting, lyrical pop music shot out into space, bouncing around the satellites and getting mixed in with all their beeping and blipping. like if r2-d2 had an aching heart and a love for the noisiest beatles songs. ideally, if you took out the depressing lyrics and substituted in educational stuff about sharing with others and the states and capitals, you could sit down at a piano and [...]

michael flynn, singer/songwriter/frontman of the charleston, south carolina-based band slow runner calls his band "music dorks with hearts of gold." mmm. yeah, we like that description. slow runner has some pop sensibility to them. press play below for proof: the band signed with j records a few years back, but then they got dropped and instead made a record on their own. it's called shiv! [...]
Sometimes the best thing that can happen to a band is getting dropped. I know that is harsh, but in most cases it is true. One casualty of the "make our record, not your record" is Slow Runner , but as a result they were able to create a self-released record the way they wanted. In most scenarios, unabashed freedom has many ups, but still suffers from a few unexpected downs and this record is no different. Led by Michael Flynn, Slow Runner uses keys, guitar hooks, drums and a smattering of other instruments in this pseudo-slacker rock LP [...]

En 2006, un événement d'hommage dans la célébration de l'anniversaire de Jeff Buckley a eu lieu à Paris, chez Phytobar. L'organisateur d'hommage, Danielle, Schuppert a pris le temps d'écrire une exposition merveilleuse au sujet de son inspiration pour tenir cet événement, l'expérience de l'organiser et une récapitulation de soirée entière qui a inclus la lecture de poésie par Walt Whitman, Rainer Maria Rilke, et Jelaluddin Rumi. La musique exécutée par Billy Bates, Stephan Powell, les 2M Michael Et Myriam en exécution de contralto a déplorer une Dido. Danielle est parvenu à coordonner une grande partie de l'événement [...]

So here it is, the top 50 Songs of 2006 . I try my absolute hardest to not include more than one song by a band in it because after the top 10-15, the rankings are mostly arbitrary and based on feel. There are so many amazing songs, it's practically impossible to actually rank them. Still, Midlake and Say Anything both have two appearances and I'm happy with it. The top 3 could also be interchanged at any given time and still ring true. I'm not going to go into depth describing these songs simply because they've all made [...]

Treasure from deep within my collection - but stuff that helps clarify the last five days of my week. Maybe you'll make some sense of your week with these songs. And depending on how your week went - maybe these tracks will help you forget all that. Either way - Listen to these songs.... Because for right now, in this moment we share on this page - they are as good as it gets! [...]

BLUE HILLS - A ROAD TRIP MIX THROUGH OCTOBER "Geography is all that separates you and your destination ." At least you'll have some great music for the ride. This may be the best stream of tracks yet! Burn on a CD for a great driving mix. [...]
Anything that makes my cats stop in their tracks and takes notice deserves a closer listen. This is what happened this morning when I put No Disassemble from Slow Runner on; as the first squelchy keyboard/organ riff rumbles the record to life, the cats stood in their tracks and did a double take, trying to decide where the sound was coming from. Not that I have the worldÂ's greatest stereo system
