The Features – Old Familiar Melodies 2008 – 2013 Don’t call it a Best Of! This is more of a Quality Sampler from a solid five years of music making by one of the nation’s best bands. Yea, that’s right. The Features still hold that title for me. Even if you know all the songs […]

upiter is My Hard Drive – “Best Thing For You” The first single from the next album by 80s-electro-pop outfit Jupiter Is My Harddrive. When I listen to this I see girls with obtuse haircuts with their head down feeling the beat and raising up with wide eyes to stare off into some unknown place […]

The By Gods – I Don’t Care Who Believes Me This wonderful rock record from The By Gods is now available on vinyl. Don’t sleep. Get a copy stat. If you still aren’t familiar with this gem, go have a listen.
The Electric Joy – “Put Your Foot In It”
Late summer head bobbing single from the Electric Western crew. It gets a little jammy for my taste here and there but I can see it properly burning down the right crowd and it’s a nice reminder that’s still summer.

So, get ready […]
Tipper Whore – Summer Sausage

There’s no way of properly categorizing it but this new Black Cat Sylvester IS a departure from his typical “two dudes at a turntable” video and, for that, he must be commended. The video is ridiculous but in the good, Intentionally Amusing, […]
Financier – Votech (The Leech Boyz Remix)
Hearing dark, moody, indie rock remixed into a dancefloor affair is usually something I steer clear from but there’s some bass going on here that I just can’t deny myself. Hear the original here and buy the remix here.
Mystery Twins – “Ghost”
After teasing at it for a week, Mystery Twins have released their brand new video for “Ghost.” It’s a haunting, black-and-white, piece that captures the mood of the song in the most eerie manner. Absolutely gorgeous work. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Evan P Donohue – Tell Me, Sara
Another quality preview from the forthcoming Evan P Donohue release, Stairway to Evan.
