Dalmatian Rex and the Eigentones - “Octopus I Love You”

The song is featured in the second half of this amazing video, enjoy!

Die Antwoord - "Enter The Ninja"

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 23:29:00 -0500

So, I’m not sure how much of their image is an act and how much is real, but maintaining that mystique is probably why I love these guys SO MUCH. Hopefully their album comes out sooner than later.

Here’s an “interview” with the group which seriously made me laugh out loud:

Gil Scott-Heron - “Me And The Devil”

I’ve never really followed Gil Scott-Heron very closely but apparently he’s coming out with a new album and this song will be on it. I thought it sounded interesting enough to post, so please enjoy!

Ariel Pink - “Politely Declined”

I don’t know why I find this so awesome, but I’m finding it REALLY awesome. I think it’s because it sounds like either some goofy record you bought solely for it’s absurd cover at Goodwill (I do this a lot), or like some communist-era Latvian recording you might find at your grandparents’ house.

Primary 1 - “Nice To Meet You”

This is the kinda stuff I love to listen to on a Sunday afternoon, which usually means it’s also something that I would consider appropriate for the bedroom. Anyway, this dude seems pretty awesome, enjoy!

Tanlines - “New Flowers”

I’ve always liked music that sounded like it was produced on an NES, and this group is no exception. Enjoy.

Marina And The Diamonds - “I Am Not A Robot”

Yeah, I know it’s the third time I’ve posted this song, but Marina is my new crush, and now the song has a video. Enjoy!

This is hilarious.

Jamie T. - “Chaka Demus”

His new album “Kings and Queens” dropped a couple days ago and I don’t think I’ve been this excited for anything to show up in my mailbox in a long time.

Also, this is officially my first post from Florida. Woot.

This song makes me miss Frankfurt in the summer…

I’m not overly crazy about this band’s other stuff, but this song is tons o’ fun. Enjoy!

Japandroids - “Young Hearts Spark Fire”

It seems like two piece bands are all the rage these days with acts like Wavves and now, Vancouver’s Japandroids. Having two people helps keep things simple, which is probably a good thing. Listen and enjoy!

Memory Cassette - “Last One Awake (Friend Version)”

It’s seems like it’s been raining non-stop in DC for the past two months. We’ve had a few lovely breaks from it, but overall, it’s starting to get to me. I really need to spend some time on a beach and get some sun and just decompress. When I finally get there, I might listen to this song over and over again.

Note: This band seems to go by like three or four different names, but I used Memory Cassette because it’s what the mp3 is labelled as.

YACHT - “Psychic City”

I’ve linked to stuff by these guys before, but this is from their forthcoming second album. This is one of the few bands out of Portland that I actually like.
