I see that this was actually posted in late 2010, but it's the first I am hearing and seeing it. Alex Greenwald covers the Arcade Fire song "We Used To Wait" on a mandolin and it's perfect. I miss these random little videos and covers that he used to film with his Phantom Planet peoples. Too good not to share. Enjoy.

This is the first track that Alex Greenwald had given away via his Twitter page, but he took down once he released "Balisong". "Return Of The King" was listed as a possible track to be included on Phantom Planet's final album, Raise The Dead . Glad to finally get to hear it since the title always intrigued me. A different sound than "Balisong". I wonder what direction he'll go with his solo debut: indie rock or a little Ronson-pop-funk inspiration. Either way, loving what I've heard so far. Also, check out the video of Greenwald performing a [...]

There is life after Phantom Planet! Alex Greenwald has been working with Mark Ronson over the past couple years since the "hiatus" of his former band. He's working on a solo album and has been sporadically tweeting tracks to followers of his Twitter . I always seem to miss it, but Mr. Greenwald was kind enough to start up a Soundcloud page where he has posted the first of his solo material. Check out "Balisong (She Told Me So)". Finally!

Marc Ronson & The Business International's 2010 LP, Record Collection , largely flew under the mainstream music biz's radar. This is a shame and a surprise - to begin with, Ronson was the mastermind behind Amy Winehouse's success with Back To Black. He's also an objectively top-notch producer. You can see his influence on Winehouse when you compare her raw, unrefined footage to what came out of the studio: she wrote the music and the lyrics, but many argue that he was just as responsible for the retro-soul Amy Winehouse "sound" so many people fell in love [...]

After rocking Letterman earlier this week, the traveling circus that is Mark Ronson & The Business Intl hit Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. But this time, Ronson and his crew staged a much bigger production, performing on a slick red-and-white set. Watch Ronson and several of his other Record Collection collaborators (including Atlanta rapper Pill, filling in for Q-Tip on "Bang Bang Bang", and Spank Rock on "The Bike Song") tear it up below: Q-Tip and MNDR handle vocals on the studio version and on the [...]

Coverage of Mark Ronson & the Business Intl.'s performance of "Bang Bang Bang" & "The Bike Song" on the October 13 edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live .

Last month Mark Ronson unleashed his latest, highly-anticipated musical endeavor Mark Ronson & The Business INTL , a collaboration album of sorts. Rather than a collection of covers a la Version , the fresh and inspired album titled Record Collection features original songs with appearances by MNDR (who I just saw with Miike Snow ), Spank Rock, Q-Tip, Alex Greenwald, Rose Elinor Dougal, Boy George, Miike Snow, D'Angelo, to name a few! Monday night the gang joined onstage at [...]

Well my little beasts and buddies, here's the final piece of the puzzle that was an amazing day. Once again, thanks to VICE and Intel for hosting one of the funnest days/nights we've had in like, a really long time. [...]

Parece que Lady Gaga , además de estar completamente loca (de eso no hay duda, vamos), también dice lo que piensa en todo momento y cuando escuchó cantar a Mark Ronson , el famoso productor, le dijo que vaya a tomar lecciones . Resulta que Lady Gaga y Ronson estaban en el estudio y Ronson empezó a cantar una canción. En ese momento Lady Gaga lo miró y le dijo que tomara algunas lecciones. Sin duda el canto no es lo mismo que la guitarra y la producción y Ronson no está hecho para [...]

The Lab was an initiative run by Tooheys Extra Dry late last year in an almost wildly drafted plan to find an artists/musician/band to fly over to New York and work and record with renowned producer Mark Ronson . With only a week and a half for entries it would have almost seemed by pure chance would an ideal sound make the cut that would ride out the entire process long enough, to come to fruition and be released to a universal audience. The final band as selected by Mark was of once solo [...]

It's a sad day for fans of Phantom Planet (and subsequently fans of "The O.C."), as the power-pop wunderkinds have announced their imminent demise, effective December 12. In a short message on their Myspace , the band writes: This could be the most difficult piece of news we have ever had to post. Sadly, Phantom Planet will be playing our last show, December 12, at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, the same venue that we played our very first live [...]
