Hi! Hello! How are you? Do you remember me? Do you remember this website? Do you remember a time when people visited websites that weren't owned by some social conglomerate or were simply collections of content originally posted by other websites that also posted collections of content? Do you remember accessing these websites on actual computers, instead of sentient telephones? Well, anyway, I'm here now again, and I'm really glad you are too. I started doing this show over 11 years ago, before podcasting was even a thing. It's been six months since my last show, which is [...]
The final two weeks of summer have seen four Portland bands releasing music videos. I posted last week about those by The Helio Sequence and Parenthetical Girls , and today about the ones for Pure Bathing Culture and the Corin Tucker Band . Go forth and watch! Also, I've got a couple new podcast episodes in the works, one will be out later this week, the next by month's end!
I recently had the opportunity to be an extra in a video directed by Alicia J. Rose for Bob Mould. I talked with Alicia after it was finished, and wrote about her thoughts + my experience for my friends over at opbmusic. Head over there , watch the video and read all about it!

As a teenager, my favorite escape was to hop a bus downtown after school, and trek around the record stores for a couple hours before heading home. These days, the nearest proper record store is at least an hour drive from where I live, and most of my music discovery and acquisition is online, within the comfort and isolation of my own home. Sadly, my story is a common one. But I still love to go into a literal brick-and-mortar store and leave with an actual artifact in hand, one which provides a unique psycho-acoustical performance every time it is [...]
Ten years ago this week, I nervously headed into the KPSU DJ booth, with a duffel bag full of records and CDs, and delivered the first broadcast of my show. Its original name was "The Post Modern Rock Show", which was my attempt at coining the new term that we all use to encompass the types of music (indie, punk, new wave, electronic, garage, C86, etc) we all consider to be "the good stuff." "Alternative" and "modern rock" had previously served this function, but had been eroded by commercial garbage. My hope was that "post modern rock" would catch on, [...]
Usually, the Portland music scene sees a really solid music video come out just every month or two, but in the last month alone, we've had six (seven, actually, if you count Luck-One's luxuriously-filmed record shopping in Portland's inferior rival, Seattle). I interviewed seven filmmakers about their videos, and posted the whole thing in two parts over with my friends at opbmusic. So, get ready to get in touch with your inner Kubrick, and settle in with Part I , take an intermission, and then see Part II .

So, I hope you're enjoying the last podcast I did, there's more on the way in the coming weeks. In the meantime, I thought you might enjoy an article I wrote for my friends at opbmusic about Portland band The Alialujah Choir's new music video for their song "A House, A Home", which, yes, includes the video itself. It's beautiful, intriguing and moving, and really worth the full-screen treatment. http://opbmusic.org/blog/exclu sive_video_premiere_alialujah_ choirs_a_house_a_home

Hello lovelies! I hope you've been enjoying your first few weeks of 2012 and the gradually lengthening days. I just wanted to let you know that I've got some amazing music tucked away that I'll be putting into a new podcast very soon. In the meantime, I've written a couple articles for my friends at opbmusic about music videos. One is about Alicia J. Rose's spooky video for Laura Gibson's song "La Grande", the other is about Rachel Blumberg's stop-motion video for Tom Hagerman (of DeVotchKa). I also did a roundup of [...]
It was past my bedtime when I did this, so, you know, just bear that in mind if I slurred a couple words. The music is GREAT though. If you didn't hear it yet, and you can't get enough seasonal tunes, be sure to hear part 1 of this year's Christmas special , or if you're hard-core, every Christmas special I've ever done .
