Sylvan Esso - Play It Right

alex on April 17 2014

Sometimes I feel like the genre of music I love is evolving into something I don't really enjoy listening to. All my spot on music sources have since moved onto either punk garbage, absurdly minimal music, or white people hip hop. I suppose my aural aesthetics are getting old just like me. I remember feeling the same way when I first moved to NYC in 2006.. All I wanted to do was wear cargo camo shorts all the time. Cargo camo shorts are just not cool and out of fear of being judged by New York's Finest Fashion Police I shelved the camo cargoes. However as the fashion world turns camo cargoes inevitably will become fashionable again so my Abercrombie cargo shorts from 2001 wait patiently in my closet. When the time does finally come I'll be rocking a sick pair of vintage camo cargo shorts.

Connan Mockasin - I'm the Man

Amazing psyche-pop from this weirdo that's on Brooklyn's own label, Mexican Summer. They have quite a stable of musicians. Look out for Vietnam's comeback album as well.

Pillar Point - Touch

If I post anymore Pillar Point my girl is gonna think something funny is going on between us. Oh snap, that just reminded me of Secret Lover by That Work. FunkNastay.

Little Dragon - Klapp Klapp

Alex on April 16 2014

Like Garfield loves lasagna, Alex loves Little Dragon. Some things never change... But mostly all things change, a lot and all the time.

Wake Owl - Candy

I bet Canadians are about fed-up with being considered the USA's tag-along younger brother. Come on guys, wait up! Ehhh! These doods are cool though. And so is Broken Social Scene, obviously. And Mike Myers.

Wild Ones - Paia

Chris on April 14 2014

I was carrying a guitar in a case down the street a couple weeks ago, and let me tell you something. That shit's a woman magnet like I have never experienced. They had no idea that I can barely play a lick, but it didn't even matter. I had to duck around a corner to lose a few of them at one point. I may just start carrying around an empty case all the time.

Future Islands - A Dream of You and Me

chris on April 10 2014

Chris gives this album two thumbs up. I have every vinyl that Future Islands has released, and damn they keeps it real. Keeping current but still maintaining that signature sound that makes them amazing.

Young & Sick - Heartache Fetish

Alex on April 09 2014

Harmony, son.

Phoenix - SOS In Bel Air (Ariel Pink's rmx)

Alex on April 04 2014

Sometimes you're just extremely hungry and dirty at the same time. So much so it leads to only ONE logical conclusion - eat a slice of cold pizza in the shower. I'm not even ashamed.

SNOWMINE - Columbus

Alex on April 01 2014

I accidently typed SNOWMIME... which is actually pretty funny when you think about it. Snow is the perfect camouflage for a mime......... A predator serial killer mime who traps you in invisible boxes while it puts the lotion on.
