Why : You Won't have been [...]
Whatever suburban hole Jack found himself in definitely has something in the water. I think I may go next weekend. If I can half half the zany fun these rough-housers are getting into then I'm on board.
![[MP3] Kool A.D. – "Eight Elvises"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4180473_lg.jpg)
lyrics ♫ Kool A.D. - Eight Elvises When Das Racist's Kool A.D. dropped his mixtape around new years I listened once and then moved on. Months later I'm doing some iTunes cleaning and stumble on this mp3 with no artist name. Damn, what a smooth groover! A bit of research and I find out it was a mislabeled track from that mixtape The Palm Wine Drinkard . Weird but awesome! So enough fascinating stories from me. Zone out to this one already and just forget everything I said. I already have.

![[STREAM] Regina Spektor – "All The Rowboats"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4171906_lg.jpg)
first there's lights out, then there's lock up Regina is back and means business. I was disappointed by her last LP Far but it looks like she means business on new album What We Saw From The Cheap Seats (out May 29th). First single "All The Rowboats" is a massively infectious jam with a punchy groove, layered piano lines, and Regina's silky voice wrapping around it all. Ughh, I just love me some good piano and few do it better than Regina. I'm stoked.
Damn this song is good. Usher just kills it. And woah Diplo. See what happens when you put down the airhorn! Straight stunning magic in this song. The video is standard R&B shenanigans but it does confirm that Usher is still sexy as hell.
![[EP] Bastille – OTHER PEOPLE'S HEARTACHE (w/ "What Would You Do?" & "Of The Night")](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4169626_lg.jpg)
get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses ♫ Bastille - What Would You Do? (City High cover) If you only know UK's Bastille from last year's stellar jam "Flaws" then the emotional weight of his new mixtape may be a bit jarring. The thing is, what makes this guy so interesting is his ability to balance fun dance grooves with samples from Requiem For A Dream and lyrics about abused children (cover of City High's "What Would You Do?" above). It's more real then we expect our indie pop music to be. It's [...]
![[QUICKIE] The 2 Bears – BE STRONG (w/ album stream)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4169620_lg.jpg)
come on party with the bears tonight, we've got the funk of 40 thousand years for your delight It's no Hot Chip goofball party vibes or solo Goddard deep grooves but this sideX2 project is bouncy house fun. Im loving "Ghosts & Zombies" [Quickies are mini-reviews that can fit into a 140 character tweet. They are of albums that people already know of but perhaps are curious about our take on it. What did you think of the disc?] [...]

Its Friday and this is how we do it. Don't know about you, but I just got my coffee game on and Im feeling that caffeine high right about now. Powered right through that 2:30 wall like it was blue cotton-candy. And I love that shite. Just marf'n on it. Anyway, enough of this noise. Lets be honest, you're here for the chuneage. For more jams or by any of these artists use the 'tags' links at the bottom of the post! Follow @JoelAlbers on Twitter for updates on remixes, dubstep and all things Nurdy. [...]
![[MP3] Van She – "Idea Of Happiness"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4166066_lg.jpg)
Van She along with Cut Copy were almost single (or double) handedly responsible for my absolute obsession with the Australian music scene. Then, only to grow my infatuation with the bands from down under- came along PNAU, Empire Of The Sun, Bag Raiders, Ladyhawke and so many more. Thats right, over any other country in the world, I dig Aussie tunes. And let me tell you, I've been waiting patiently for a ridiculously long time for Van She to release a new album. So, finally, here we have it, the first (and title) track from Van She's forthcoming album, out on Modular July 6 (AUS) [...]

![[MP3] 52 to ZHU](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4164589_lg.jpg)
Its been over 6th months since ZHU took on the enormous project "52 to ZHU". A track a week for an entire year? Yeah, lots of people probably thought the dude was crazy. Conservative thought would lead you to believe that maintaining quality and substance would be nearly imposible. Well, like the Honey Badger, ZHU don't give a sh*t. The production Dj hasn't missed a beat in 28 weeks. Now thats commitment. Below I have singled out my preferred tracks since I last covered ZHU in week 6. 52 to ZHU 2011 is a year of innovation, technology, and dance [...]

![[MP3] Capital Cities – "Kangaroo Court"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4161864_lg.jpg)
the judge pulls me aside says c'est la vie, let your darker side come out to feed ♫ Capital Cities - Kangaroo Court Oh man! You have no idea how hard it has been to sit on this jam and not share it! Capital Cities are one of the best new bands going and their live show is a thing to behold. This jam is a glitchy groove beast! Ride the horns! Even though Capital Cities stood us up for the TBE SXSW parties [...]
![[EP] Entrepreneurs – THE FLORIDA ROOT CANAL (w/ "I Am 3!")](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4161865_lg.jpg)
♫ Entrepreneurs - I Am 3! Entrepreneurs have always made weird music but somehow I just vibe with it. New EP The Florida Root Canal is perhaps the weirdest yet but I keep coming back to it. Songs are mostly under 2 minutes and oddball interstitial moments buffer most tracks but somehow the whole things bobs, flops and twists its way through my brain and leaves me smiling. "I Am 3!" is a perfect example of the kind of dirty fun that bubbles to the surface of the insanity. [...]
