Check out DC resident DJ, Gavin Holland's rework of the Travis Morrison Hellfighters (lead singer from the Dismemberment Plan) track "Moneytown". The song has very David Byrne-esque feel to it. Pretty funky. Enjoy... Travis Morrison Hellfighters| Moneytown (Gavin Holland Remix)

This one's for all of you animation/Adult Swim fans out there. The cartoon production gurus teamed up with electro-genius Neon Indian to create any nerd's wet dream-an animated, pink-haired, big-boobied siren who can, and does, get any guy to do anything her heart desires. Enjoy!
Carly Maicher's latest, Hiding, is one of those albums that leaves me speechless; it speaks for itself. Her chillingly beautiful voice cuts through these light & airy acoustic melodies throughout the entire record, making for a soft, yet gripping album from start to finish.

A little love for our DC blog broz over at All Things Go. ATG recently launched a record label titled appropriately, ATG Records. Running a label is a tough business, and I give these guys a nod for bringing another label to DC. The Mausi single "sol." is breezy and cathcy as hell. [...]

I can always rely on my father to recommend a rare and dusty gem from his extensive music collection. This past weekend was no exception of course. We were talking about what might be the best song covers of all time, and he immediately thought of Art Garfunkel's album Breakaway. He then [...]
