Operators - Cold Light

Alex on February 03 2016

Just sitting here drinking my pea, hemp, and spirulina protein shake listening to Operators.. who are unmistakably related to Wolf Parade member Dan Boeckner. That's right, I said pea, hemp, and spirulina protein shake - which also just happens to be vegan -- so I got that going for me.

California Carpool - The Moon

Alex on January 28 2016

It's that time of winter where all I want to do is sleep or maybe just be comfortably horizontal. You could hook a drip of the lightest most caffeine laden coffee directly to my veins and I would still just want to curl up in bed and sleep the day away. Anyways, here's some moody surf rock to match my mood.

Honne - 3am

You don't know what you've got until it's gone they say. Once it's gone, you may never get it back, and if you do... it won't be the same. But from what you loose you gain in experience and vision, which is a very good thing. Like Hemingway said, "The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places." This isn't a rant. It's directly related to the theme in this song.

Dan Casey - Hidden Guide

chris on January 18 2016

I've decided to get back in touch with my emotional dark heart. Excuse me while I slip into bottomless pit of dark music. Let's start this depressing party off with Slint and follow it up with a touch of Slowdive. See you on the other side.

MIAMIGO - Hard To Love

Alex on January 15 2016

Sometimes I get a little obsessed with a song. I'll listen to it a solid 10-15 times in a row and dissect everything about it. Generally after that glorious first day when I hear the song it just reminds me of my shamefully brief aural romance. What I'm trying to say is if I saw this track across the bar after lusting after it for a whole day I probably wouldn't acknowledge it. We could still be friends though, like maybe grab some coffee every month to not make things awkward.

Bright Light Bright Light & Ana Matronic - West End Girls

Whenever I hear tracks like this all I can think about is Giovani Ribisi crushing the dancing situation.

SPORTS - Get Bummed Out

chris on January 08 2016

They are from Ohio. I knew it. It has that midwestern darkness and just the right amount of amazingness with just a pinch of the Cranberries.

atOlla - Bloom

Alex on January 05 2016

2016 - year of the monkey. Which can only mean one thing -- real life planet of the apes. I had a thought during New Years Eve while staring at a giant decorative fountain, does anyone else think its fucking strange we build these giant things that shoot water in the air for no purpose but to look at water being shot upwards? I think when aliens descend upon us they're going to be really disappointed in our opulence. "What form of power generation is this?" "Oh that? It's just shooting water upwards." "...This planet sucks."
