Rooks powerful remix of "Clouds" may just be too powerful for the vocals in Love in the Circus. Definitely feeling what each is bringing, but Rooks remix is such a dirty one - only capable in the Bay, by the way - that it may trot over Leanna Rachel's vocals a bit too much. Then again, I've always had a taste for gettin grimey with such lustrous vocals.

Electric Guest is a name soon to be ingrained in every indie-lover's mind. The LA-based duo are produced by Danger Mouse, and headed to SXSW where they're sure to impress the funky Austin crowd. There is nothing better than a catchy jam that calls for a little hip gyration and a few head bobs, and to be honest I could probably gush for a few paragraphs about my love for the Mayer Hawthorn-esque vocals... but I think I'll let it speak for itself.

RÆL J∆¥ - God Guilt Death (Prod. by Jack Murphy) Microwaves and Chasers is sort of my weird yin and yang philosophy I have on life and also is short term Mc (emcee). It's about taking the good and bad in life and balancing them. Microwaves symbolizes the greed of instant gratification and Chasers symbolize the chase, a chase that includes the grind and rocking shows, working part time jobs and going to Community College, doing whatever it takes to chase a dream. Finding the middle ground between Microwaves and Chasers allows one to [...]

I discovered Polaris At Noon original music after attending Bootleg Bar in Los Angeles. Specifically they were the openers to the show, but we missed seeing them perform but did grab their EP, En Pointe (iTunes), on the way out. The next day, I put the CD in my car and was amazed at how [...]
![[mp3] Saint Motel // At Least I Have Nothing](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4035214_lg.jpg)
Tweet vaso link Saint Motel's "At Least I Have Nothing," the A-side from the band's first 73 single from late last year, doesn't exactly paint a pretty picture of twentysomethings in the Twenty-First Century. Lamenting a general lack of goals, the song doesn't spare anyone the band's disdain, though it's said to be open to interpretation. It's strange, however, that a song that is as bleak as this one can be so damn catchy. It'd be a miracle if you [...]

I don't know if I can stray away from the original just yet, but I couldn't deny myself a Minnesota remix of my favorite Kraddy track. Minnesota does his usual blissful synths coupled with hypnotizing bass buzzin and plays wells with Erica Dee's sultry vocals. Couldn't ask for a better man to remix a better song! <3 Minnesota Birth Name: Christian Bauhofer Origin: MINNESOTA Location: Santa Cruz, California Links: SoundCloud | Facebook [...]

Feel as if I've been too mellow this week, so I'm glad I've got the opportunity to share this little jam with you. The group's called The Shrouded Strangers , a Cali by way of Virginia act, and they're about to release Lost Forever . You can grab the album from the group right now, and I suggest you do so, as it will definitely make your week. Yeah, the track has a thick coat of atmospheric wash atop it, but beneath it all is brewing this incredible sunny pop [...]
T & The Wonder - Vespa Most mornings I wake up and plug you some drone music or some weird, instrumental, abrasive noise pop, or something along those lines. But this, friends: This could be something of a hit single. "If I had a Vespa, I would drive up to your house and I could kiss you on the cheek and then hang out for the weekend, but I don't." ' Vespa ' reminds me of the band Stars ; innately [...]
Stream the new Princeton track "Florida" below, along with a remix done by Cosmic Kids. I certainly wouldn't be singing about the Sunshine State if I lived in California. The track will appear on the Cali group's upcoming 2nd LP, Remembrance of Things To Come. Released right as the Republican Primary (gross) is finishing up in Florida, the track is purposely released to get everybody back to having good feelings about the state.
NastyNasty's "Acid Hangover" is one romp around some strange ass sounds. Apparently, he created this after riding his cruiser bike around an abandoned San Joe while on Acid - sounds about right to me. It's like nothing I've ever heard before, which is exactly why I like it. Maybe throw in some Bay Area raps and this would have San Fran music written all over it. Also, just wondering - is it me or does this have that "Nookie" drum pattern at the start? [...]
