Cloud Nothings - "Hey Cool Kid"

It's loose, unpolished, lo-fi, & has a hella good hook. I'm definitely into it. Also, CN is from Cleveland. Gotta rep the ole hometown. The rest of the album/tape (they're part of the relatively new tape scene) is legit too. According to the Cloud Nothings myspace page, they have a bunch of projects in the works. I can see them gaining traction very soon. Keep it on your radar if you dig the sound.

blessa

"rad party dood. no seriously, it looks like a lot of fun."

If you dig this track from Toro y Moi (& you prolly should), you can download the mp3 &/or the full-length album that drops February 23rd below. Vurrry nice.

welcome to the new decade

(nashville)

Bring on the streamers and fireworks, we have entered the year of the tiger. How's that for poetic justice, Tiger Wood's unraveling happens directly before the year of his namesake. Eh who care's about him.

So it's been quite a while since the last post. Charmaine and I have been traveling for the last 3 weeks - San Diego, then Cleveland, then Nashville. It was a long & wild ride, to say the least. Watching season 1 of X-Files till 4am every night on a projector screen was definitely a highlight. I'll be posting a new mix soon, prolly tonight. Stay tuned!
