1. The Helio Sequence - Harmonica Song - For a long time, I thought this album cover was something like two lungs made of different sized dots. But it's way cooler than that, as you can see here. Two. Dudes. This song totally rocked live, it's hard to believe two guys could bring it like that. This sounds like a really good indie rock band being accompanied by someone playing Nintendo.

Alt-gramma and I are off to see Say Hi To Your Mom (now officially shortened to simply " Say Hi ") at the Glasshouse tonight. The band has just released a really excellent album - so check back soon for a review. Our buddies at indiechristoph think you should check out a couple of bands, Cats and Cats and Cats and This Town Needs Guns . Aquarium Drunkard features the release of a previously unreleased Neil Young album. That statement brought to [...]
In honor of the Girl Talk show last night (that I am still recovering from), I decided to make this mix dedicated to all of the songs that I enjoy dancing to.

Massive Attack - Risingson Maps - To The Sky Junior Boys - Double Shadow The Helio Sequence - Harmonica Song !!! - Bend Over Beethoven Ghostland Observatory - [...]

The Pick-Up Artiste By Tess Lynch I imagine these people are all very close. "Too Many People" - Paul and Linda McCartney ( mp3 ) "Smoke and Mirrors" - RJD2 ( mp3 ) The other day, I was at Aaron Brothers , just picking up some stuuuuff and chatting with the local crazies. This dude, who claimed to be an artist (and had some pretty unimpressive inky canvasses to show us; I [...]
You can listen to this while reading... We R in Need of a Musical Revolution-Esthero I am an advocate for the musician. Just by having a blog I am promoting artists less known, and re-hashing artists forgotten. I fully understand and support that artists should get paid their deserved royalties and advances, and the record companies that produce, release, and market these artists should get their share as well, it's how the music industry works. And it's obvious with all of the independent musicians, more outlets are needed for proper [...]
It was fun while it lasted, but Sub Pop Week is coming to an end. Given that there are so many great bands on the label, there really was no way to feature all of them, but that is okay because A) I'll be able to still post the other artists later, just not for Sub Pop Week and B) The only way to really end this thing properly is with a Sub Pop Mix. By the way, what do you think of my Photoshop skills? Jealous, aren't you. So anyway, here you have it: [...]
iTunes says there are 21,436 songs that suck up 107.40 GB of disk space and would take 59 Days, 20 hours, 2 minutes, and 45 seconds to play. Selecting the random "Party Shuffle" feature yields this mess (mix). What the hell does it all mean? mp3 Animals On My Mind ( Departure Lounge - Too Late To Die Young ) mp3 Gone_Live ( M83 - Dead Cities, Red Seas And Lost Ghosts ) mp3 I'm Deranged ( David Bowie - Outside ) [...]
