AlunaGeorge - Your Drums, Your Love(Friendly Fires Remix)

alex on October 26 2012

If one more person says Frankenstorm I'm going to storm all over their franken, and that's a psalm brother. I guess my bar is probably set too high considering this is the same culture whom remakes remakes of movies. In other news: Halloween has descended upon us, its that time of year again where we all get to go out dressed like assholes and feel bad about our creativity. I've always had a serious issue with the lady costumes on Halloween, the whole slutty costume thing just seems so easy - it literally works with any concept.. Slutty parking ticket cop (slutty parking ticket would even work, slap some post-its on your nips and call it a day.), slutty circus performer, slutty walnut factory quality service inspector #4.. it all works. And for those curious.. this isn't the chick from Little Dragon but damn does she sound like it.

MÃ˜ - Pilgrim

chris on October 24 2012

New babe on the radar. Babe-ar. Oh and thanks for the name which I have no clue how to pronounce, and will probably make an ass out of me once this is popular.

Citizens! - True Romance(Gigamesh Remix)

alex on October 22 2012

I've been a big follower of the Kitsune Maison compilations for years now. This one didn't quite deliver the same amount of pure gold tracks like previous mixes had. In other news: Today I saw a full grown man walk face first into a closed glass door, dude was speed walking like he was on a mission too. Next time slow down, bro. It bugs me how people walk in NYC, like where they're going is the most important destination known to man when in reality they're just going to Pet Land to buy Mr. Rufus some more wee-wee pads.

Local Natives - Breakers

alex on October 18 2012

Haven't heard from these guys in a solid minute. Welcome back Local Natives - I'm anticipating your new album which comes out Jan 29, 2013. Feels really weird typing out 2013. Seriously though where's the hovering skateboards? I could do without all the crazy future technology just give me a god damn plank that floats. Is that so much to ask, techology?

Surahn - Watching The World

chris on October 17 2012

Just in case you were wondering, watching a street bum try out a pogo stick he found in the trash, is hilarious. He had some skills too.

Holy Ghost! - It Gets Dark

chris on October 16 2012

This is some Rocky training shit. Nic and Alex of Brooklyn's finest disco-dance-duo bring the noise. I give it four out of five rock kicks.

MVSCLES - Where You Are

alex on October 15 2012

I swear if I see one more new band use a V as a U I'm gonna... ...-well I'm not gonna do anything but be a little bit irritated. I get it, its like latin, that's very clever. It was clever the first time around, now its just obnoxious. One thing mvscles has going for them is a banging single and a totally rad album cover which you cant see on here yet but in about a month you will. The sample of the chick hitting the high notes makes my dog go insane and in my book that just makes for a fun song.

Jake Bugg - Green Man

alex on October 12 2012

This fucking asshole. This dick wad of a kid is 18 years old and has more figured out about life and music than I ever will. Well played Jake Bugg, well played.

Bats for Lashes - Oh Yeah

alex on October 10 2012

I get so uncomfortable on public transportation when people start dozing off... When the nodder offer is only centimeters away from sleeping on the shoulder of the person next to them - I just want yell "DONT DO IT, MAN!" Watching that shit go down is like the epitome of awkward. In other news: My girl Natasha Khan has a new album and it's stellar. I'd rather wait years for an artist to release a new album than have an artist drop an album every year that's only marginal.

Chvrches - The Mother We Share

alex on October 09 2012

This was my thought process when I heard this song on Indie Shuffle - "oh, this song is pretty sweet lets check out the band." So I find their soundcloud, no mp3 download here. "I'll go to iTunes and PAY FOR THEIR MUSIC" - what's that iTunes? the mp3 is only available in the fucking UK? Because a digital format shouldn't be available to all countries. I then Google some shitty music blog that has an mp3 download link and they get money from me seeing their crappy site and their shitty advertising. That's where I fucking ended up, not paying the artist ... instead some random blog spammer got a couple cents - do we see the problem here? The whole time I was making that like disappointing clicking noise with my mouth - you know the one. Where you make that click with your tongue on the back of your molars "tsk." That noise our parents would make when they found our bongs or porn stashes.
