It's pretty incredible to think that the holiday season is here. It seems like just yesterday we were ringing in 2009, a year, which as we eventually discovered, would be beyond our wildest imaginations. From the scorching musical brilliance of Bonnaroo to the incredible weekend that was Lollapalooza ; from our interviews with Tom Jones , Slayer , Passion Pit , Pavement , Ben Kweller , and Ms. Consequence of Sound herself, Regina Spektor , to debates over the metal heads , 311 , and Albums [...]
Hey guys... You can tell it's Christmastime because the music industry essentially grinds to a hault for the month of December. It's like a musical wasteland for much of December and it kind of makes sense, your out buying your girlfriend a new Lexus, so why in the world would you want to pick up a new Bowie record. Anyway, this was supposed to be up on Friday 12/11. I obviously didn't make it, so here we are in the middle of this week and you have last week's Ten Tracks You Need err this week. [...]

What is Speed Dating? Well on the Great Pumpkin that is where a bunch of singles get together, and hang out, but this time it's mp3s, 7″s, and EPs rather than people. Speed Dating is where I highlight some tracks that I have been listening to lately. Whether I like them, hate them, am intrigued by them… no matter what I think they are note worthy for one reason or another. Each post will feature one to five songs by different bands, and aim to get my thoughts out on music that I have been trying to write about, but [...]
Sole hollers at us with a new MP3 and, oddly, a list of his favorite books.
the gore vidal of rap or still a cornball in fact? Don't ask me why. But every now and again, I look around the internet to see what Anticon is up to. Well, Sole from Anticon has recorded perhaps the worst rap song in history, or the ballsiest song since ahem, "Makeshift Patriot" by Sage Francis. "My President is Black, and that don't mean jack" . Sole says on the hook of the first anti-Obama Hip Hop song, that sends up Young [...]
"Battlefields" the music video from Sole & The Skyrider Band's "Plastique" album. Directed by Ravi Zupa. Features Markus Acher of The Notwist on vocals.
Free music. Free food. Free dranks.
This is going to be a new feature (again irregular feature) here on the Great Pumpkin, and I think this edition is going to be one of the most unique from the series, and it is only the first. When I find a unique cover song I will be posting it along with the original (if possible), and in this case both versions are unique, and wonderful. The original version of "This Blackest Purse" was written and recorded by Why? , [...]
Sole (founder of anticon. records ) and the Skyrider Band will be hitting the road this October, playing out the new record "Plastique." Click on the image above to pre-order your copy now. Honestly, we didn't think the preview clips do the record the justice it truly deserves over at circleintosquare.com , but you can at least get the compressed audio gist of the songs. Still though, the audio compression really ruins how great the songs actually sound! So, you need more than previews when it comes to these songs, [...]
So she left a nasty sting on my cheek, but it's the kind of nasty you go back for; and like everyone else I'm just going to have to wait in line, as I'm not the only "Englishman in New York" cueing up for more. But one thing that doesn't cost if your looking in the right places is that next dose of 30hz and below, and if you get lucky you just might find yourself somewhere that has the drops which hit the desired spot. Last Friday I found myself in Central Park at the truly spectacular 'Dark Disco [...]
Significant for nothing other than the "fact" that this song charted & was a constant in clubs ten years ago. A far cry from " Spoiled Rotten " JT Money. JT Money-Who Dat (Feat._Sole)- Promo CDS (1999)
Prolific hip hopsters Doseone and Jel have dusted off their Themselves project and created a new mixtape, entitled theFREEhoudini . As the title sort of suggests, it's a free download (although there is a CD version, too. More on that in a sec). But what would a mixtape be without guests? Nothing, that's what. So it's lucky theFREEhoudini is packed full of them. Pretty much anyone you could name from the Anticon family is in there, including a very briefly reformed cLOUDEAD, as well as Buck 65, Aesop Rock, Busdriver, Lionesque, Slug Of Atmosphere, D-Styles, DJ Baku, [...]
This was posted by Odd Nosdam at soleone.org Anticon is proud to present the newest addition to the Themselves catalog, a 39-minute-long free album of sorts, theFREEhoudini. Featuring guest appearances from Buck 65, Aesop Rock, Busdriver, Lionesque, Slug of Atmosphere, D-Styles, Pedestrian, Sole, Serengeti, and Yoni Wolf and Odd Nosdam as cLOUDDEAD (not to mention the whole entire mixtape being mixed down by Nosdam as well), theFREEhoudini serves as Doseone and Jel's return, posse record that never was, and contribution to [...]
