I haven't done this in a while for no reason at all. So, Im gonna to try and get it back up and running with music I like and appreciate. I also wanted to try and link up with Spotify as this appears to be a good way to listen / share music in a easy and truly legal way. Below is a mix I put together for Kansas City Roasterie a few years ago and I came across it today and I really like it. [...]
![Non-Fat Urban Soundtrack [Episode 12]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3734401_lg.jpg)
Time for another episode of the Non-Fat Urban Soundtrack series, which is mixed and hosted by DJ Steve Martin . He is currently in LA, where he already brings a weekly mix to the ears of all the LA listeners through his radio show. The radio show is called "My Side of the City" which you can hear Saturdays on KPFK from Midnight til 2 AM in LA or you can check out the mix online. As we've seen with past Non-Fat mixtapes, DJ Steve Martin brings us a diverse mix of tracks, covering the full spectrum of "hop", [...]
Bonjour! Soo it's been a bit more than a month since the epic-ness that was Lollapalooza 2011, and I've been super busy with life. I'm studying in Paris for the semester, and it hasn't been as easy as I expected. The whole foreign-culture-different-lang uage thing is quite an experience so far, but I'm making progress. Anyway, I've been slacking hard on posting, so here are some recent

You have to have a little affection for bands aping a scene that they're a continent away from. Portland's Joggers seemed to desperately want in on the NYC sound of the early 'aughts. I guess they knew they could never be the Walkmen, so they had the good sense to highlight their harmony chops (not actually in evidence on this track) and lose the attitude. It was a nice angle, but it didn't raise them above the pack of also-rans . Still, I put on their debut album the other day and was pleased that [...]
"Shadows on Behalf" sounds like it was recorded at several points throughout history - at a '60s soul festival, the set of a '70s porno, a pioneering hip-hop sample demonstration from the '80s... it's a wonderful smorgasbord of stylistic periods, to say the least. The best classification for it, and many of The Stepkids' tracks, [...]

Today's my last day at Stereogum, so instead of the best videos of this week, I'm posting the best videos of the year so far. They line up pretty closely with my favorite videos of the year, but hey, it's my last day. I get to pick my favorites. I included videos from my two favorite up-and-coming director collectives (DANIELS and CANADA), directors who create mesmerizing puzzles, some uncomfortable clips, some uncomfortable narratives, and a few NSFW videos. If you've got 2011 videos that you think should be here, put them in the comments. And thanks for reading/watching/listening [...]

Today we're taking a bit of a departure from the typical straight-dubstep tunes regularly featured here. While all of these tunes definitely exude elements common in dubstep, we're venturing a bit into nearby territory like dancehall, reggae, rap, and classic rock. Not that rap and classic rock have much to do with dubstep, but, you know, f*** it. Take a listen and lemme know what you think on Twitter: >>> @Crimestein Peas and dub.

On commence à peine à les perdre de vue dans le rétro, qu'ils accélèrent pour être à nouveau à porté de vue. The Glitch Mob revient, avec une nouvelle fois, les morceaux de Drink The Sea . On a eu le droit à la superbe mixtape de Mashup Versus avec une cohorte de MCS bien connus comme Young Jeezy ou Lil Wayne intitulé Drink The Sea Part 2 : The Mixtape . Cette fois c'est un album de remixes sur-vitaminé à la [...]

8 bit beat freaks listen up! Jasper Patterson aka GroundIsLava from California's We Did It Collective is giving a full ep of unreleased tracks, called Book of Tech . It's to celebrate his upcoming release on Friends of Friends this April. Kinda like the stuff on Error Broadcast , except less sophisticated texture, more Gameboy goodness: spacey arpeggios colliding with hip hop riding on video game bleeps. [Groundislava - Birthday Beet] [Groundislava - Pulling Weeds] I first discovered Friends of Friends via the track Nephicide [...]

Do you remember the years you were a kid? Everything was so nice. The food was tasty. The music was so good. Everything was cheaper. Your family so happy. It was all like an endless Californian summer, like a good time pop song . Do you feel nostalgic? Do you remember well? Are you still sure that everything was so perfect? Maybe not. If you had the chance to go back in time and puke in some faces I bet you would. Maybe your endless Californian summer was more like a black metal song? You are [...]
Until this morning, I'd never heard of Jogger, the not-at-all-metal outfit that features Night Court star John Larroquette's son, Jonathan Larroquette; and while I do enjoy some moodier electronic music (e.g., Amon Tobin), I'm not sure that their music is for me. But GODDAMN if the group's video for "Nephicide" isn't the best music video [...]

They're asking for a donation that will get you an instant download for this album as well as Volume 2. But its for a good cause yall: Haiti. That's right. Haiti.
