SBTRKT - Highs and Lows

Alex on March 25 2014

This one goes straight into my "Blast You In The Face - A Study of Trap Music - The DJ Set" folder.
In other news: Thankfully none of you can see the tears rolling down my face as I watch the 400th snow storm of the winter. Only one thing can make me feel better right now and it begins with a D and ends with a ouble bacon cheeseburger with fries.

Todd Rundgren - Johnnee Jingo

chris on March 24 2014

It's throwback monday... That's a thing right? While looking for some info in this song, I found out a little bit about Bebe Buell. Apparently she was quite the rock n roll floozie. She slept with Todd Rundgren, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Jimmy Page, Steven Tyler, Elvis Costello and Stiv Bators. That is quite a track record lady bird. Also thanks for bringing Liv Tyler into this world.

Sky Ferreira - You're Not The One (Cid Rim rmx)

Alex on March 21 2014

Cid Rim has this uncanny ability of taking an already awesome track, dropping it in a vat of dark voodoo goo, and producing something completely different but equally awesome. Cid Rim -- your sorcery is beyond my comprehension.

Mac DeMarco - Brother

Chris on March 21 2014

Mac coming super easy breezy on a Lou Reed tip. He's as cool as the other side of the pillow.

Jungle - Busy Earnin

chris on March 21 2014

It turns out the recording label XL is a freaggin powerhouse. The nicest lineup of artists from Bobby Womack to The XX to SBTRKT to Tyler the Entertainer.

RATKING featuring King Krule - So Sick Stories

chris on March 20 2014

I'm in a super dark place right now. On hold with USPS for close to two hours. I want to hang up... but what if I'm next? Just two more hours and then I'll call it quits. Oddly enough, super New York sounding RATKING matches perfectly with super English sounding King Krule. Both seem like they're deep in the streets.

Foster The People - Best Friend

Alex on March 19 2014

I wen't to Disney World for a few days and immediately returned to a 14 hour work day. 4 Day vacation effectively canceled out in one day. Mickey, also known as the master of my bank account, says what's up.

Metronomy - Love Letters

Alex on March 10 2014

Tomorrow is my birthday. I will be 31 years old. I will be celebrating with my beautiful girlfriend in a strip mall at the dogfish head ale house and I couldn't be happier.

Black Lips - Funny

Alex on March 06 2014

I just want to be riding around in a boat with a giant pirate flag on it, playing this track at 11, and drinking a bud heavy from a can that's been sitting in an ice cold cooler for 45 minutes. IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK?? Thanks Obama.

Darkside - The Only Shrine I've Seen

chris on March 05 2014

This is one of those tracks that is not really radio friendly, as they say. Who are they man!? It's like a conspiracy against quality music man! It's like if you don't conform to the norm man, it's like you can't even make it in today's world man.
