Listen to full Sasquatch sets courtesy of NPR over HERE . ****************************** ****************************** ****************************** **************************** Day 1: Ass-heavy with camping supplies and provisions, I drive east out of Portland in search of Sasquatch. The land is green until I cross the Columbia River into the state of Washington where the vegetation is replaced by the soft tones of bare rolling hills and exposed earthen crags. The drive is long but not unpleasant, and before I know [...]
The Sasquatch! Music Festival owns Memorial Day weekend. It's a festival driven by its scenery, a gorgeous one in fact overlooking the majestic Columbia River Gorge, and features a hefty number of large and emerging musical acts. Last summer, Audio Milk had the honor of covering the festival , paying close attention to the smaller acts rather than indie heavyweights such as LCD Soundsystem, Broken Social Scene, and MGMT. For this year's event, you can expect the same style of coverage with a large photo diary and tons of exclusive artist interviews. Below are some of our most anticipated sets [...]

Pünktlich zur Zeugnisausgabe bin ich dann doch wieder an Bord. Ich sehe das Musikjahr ein wenig positiver als Ric, wenn auch mit einem leicht negativen Beigeschmack: Denn im Grunde ist es hinfällig, wie viele großartige Songs das vergangene Jahr hervorgespült hat, man wird es immer mit Lena Meyer-Landruts Siegersong „Satellite“ beim Eurovision Song-Contest in Verbindung bringen. Alben des Jahres 1. The Soft Pack – The Soft Pack Ich nutze lastfm hauptsächlich dazu, die Profile der hippen Amerikaner nach neuen [...]
Since I'm later than everyone else and am expounding (and have expounded) elsewhere plenty on 2010 I'll keep this one short. The following is a list of the most compelling records I heard in 2010. Not coincidentally these really were the records I actually listened to most. To my mind, every one of my choices [...]
Sí, 2010. El fin de año pasado y el principio de éste estuvieron tan ajetreados que decidimos esperar que pasara la tempestad para compartir con ustedes nuestros discos favoritos de la temporada que acaba de terminar. Además, el verdadero recuento debería hacerse después del último día del año, ¿no? Pero a no engañarse: si bien sabemos que el fuerte de este sitio está ligado a las canciones y a los remixes, seguir el día a día de la música sin escuchar muchos discos no vale de nada. Y en esta categoría, no siempre los ligados a la [...]
It's the last day of 2010 and I'm in a Melbourne internet cafe sucking a bottle of orange juice with the nipple unscrewed. Over my shoulder a lady is reading academic literature and next to her is a guy watching porn. Unusual situations will be remembered. So will great songs. Here are a few. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Fright Night (removed by request) I'm a big fan of new wave [...]

Since we've spent the entire week recounting our favorite albums of 2010, and quite frankly you're probably tired of reading about them, seemed like a no-brainer to end the week by giving a mix tape chocked full of tunes from these 25 HT approved albums. So sit back, enjoy and play it loud…
Although we already listed our Top Ten Albums of 2010 , we had an extensive list of favorites music and moments from the year. So we thought we would share them with you. Albums Teen Dream - Beach House Crazy For You - Best Coast Plastic Beach - Gorillaz My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kayne West Mischief Maker - A Million Years High Violet - The National The Unmistakable Man - River City Extension Cheap Sunglasses - Status Green Young the Giant- Young [...]
Amazon is offering a full 1,000 MP3 albums for only $5 each this January, including a lot of choice ones such as many of our top albums of 2010 including Wolf Parade, Superchunk, Yeasayer, Surfer Blood, Broken Bells and Beach House.

So if you want to fill in the gaps in your indie music collection, this is a great way to do it. Check out some highlights from the list below [...]
I think the thing that pleased me most about the Sirius XMU Top 41 of 2010 was that I photographed 24 of the 36 of the bands on the list.

BEACH HOUSE - 10 MILE STEREO ARCADE FIRE – SPRAWL II BEST COAST - BOYFRIEND LOCAL NATIVES – WIDE EYES ARIEL PINK’S HAUNTED GRAFFITI – BRIGHT LIT BLUE SKIES THE NATIONAL – ANYONE’S GHOST SLEIGH BELLS – RILL RILL BLACK KEYS – NEXT GIRL YEASAYER – [...]
I like to sum up my favorites from the year's music. Here are my top nine for 2010. There were a lot of others that I enjoyed, but none that I felt strong enough to put in a Top 10 list. - Joel 1. Beach House - Teen Dream "Walk In the Park" 2. Sleigh Bells - Treats "Run the Heart" 3. [...]
The problem with so-called best-of lists, is that they are really just a collection of items organized based on experience and time, in that there will be plenty of albums heard the following year and beyond that will hold just as much weight as these we dub as "Best." So, as of right now, at this particular time in the tail end of 2010 and the first moments of 2011, these albums are the best. There's no question about it; it will change. My next list (which I've started, but may take a while to publish) is [...]
1. Beach House - Teen Dream mp3: Beach House - Norway 2. Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest mp3: Deerhunter - Revival 3. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Before Today mp3: Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Fright Night (Nevermore) 4. Caribou - Swim [...]

happy new years eve! this is my own personal collection of my favorite songs of 2010. it was a tough decision to narrow down the best from out of 500 tracks, but the below addictions (in no particular order) seemed to take over my speakers for the most of this year. a collection of everything from indie rock, pop, r&b, soul, hip hop, electronica, and acoustics that made music in general feel good again. personally this year was a rollercoaster of happy emotions from moving to florida to starting a new line of jewelry to beginning new friendships to renewing [...]
Oh 2010, what a rollercoaster of a year you've been... I think that this has been the most awesome year out of my life so far. I've had lots of ups and I've had lots of downs. I met some of the most amazing people this year and I'm pretty sure I am gonna be meeting even more in the coming year. First: music. I won't give you my top 10 of albums in 2010, instead I will give you a list of the 15 albums/ep's I've enjoyed the most [...]
Cómo melómanos de larga data reinvidicamos las tan denostadas listas de fin de año. Porque pese a todos sus defectos sí funcionan en el objetivo de resumir lo que fue la temporada. Qué no estemos de acuerdo en la elección y orden es otro asunto. Y tenemos más que claro que se nos han pasado 45 discos por el lado que esperemos reconocer y apreciar en un futuro cercano, incluyendo algunos editados tan encima de la fecha de cierre que no pudimos darles el tiempo necesario. Cada año que pasa el acceso a discos es tan brutalmente abierto [...]
