Codaphonic – Mindwrecker Preview

Codaphonic is doing something a little novel with their next release – a split double EP. It’s one vinyl record with two different EP’s per side. Two different producers, two different artists providing artwork and two different styles of approach on each side.  Preview the first EP, Mindwrecker, on Youtube now. Join them at The […]

Meadownoise – Louder Like a Microphone

As part of the ongoing “Single a Month” undertaking, Meadownoise recently released the January installment – “Louder Like a Microphone.” It continues in the dark vein that the previous two have taken and I, for one, completely approve. If this ends up being twelve tracks in this style it’s going to easily be some of […]

Circle K – First Six

I dunno if I’d call it a “side project” but Circle K involves at least one member of D. Watusi. So, take that as an endorsement of worth listening to. 

2014

Another year, another refreshed headspace for the undertaking that is We Own This Town. There won’t be a Best Of 2013 podcast this year because I haven’t been on top of things enough to get that together.  That being said, I definitely plan to keep posting about new music endeavors from all sorts of outlets […]

Critter’s Galaxy – Series Finale

Not gonna lie, kind of sad to see Critter’s Galaxy go but with an epic final episode like this, it’s worth it. Nice tributes to plenty of films in here – Harry and the Henderson and Indiana Jones being the obvious ones.  Looking forward to the next project from this team, as they’ve obviously got […]

Coco Motion – Christmastime

You likely know Coco Hames from her work with The Ettes or hanging out at Fond Object with a pig or maybe a few goats. She’s posted up a pleasant track just in time for Christmas that just so happened to also air on the final episode of WFMU’s The Best Show.

It Came From Detroit

The other night I watched the documentary, It Came From Detroit, and several things struck me.  1) Third Man Record’s Ben Blackwell and Ben Swank both make appearances, so if you ever questioned their Detroit roots, this film will absolve those doubts.  2) Watching this movie and substituting “Nashville” whenever they talk about the wealth […]

A Very Glossary Christmas is here!

I was fully expecting a 4 minute bit of Glossary goofiness when this was announced but it’s great to see that it’s a full-on 37-minute extravaganza. Watch performances from Glossary, Austin Lucas, Cory Branan, Birdcloud and Glossary again.  (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

D. Watusi – Dark Party

Sadly, any mention of D. Watusi brings about the incredibly sad and unfortunate memory of the passing of bassist Ben Todd. His departure really can’t be overstated enough as a real loss for the world. I’m not even using the least bit of exaggeration or hyperbole with that statement, the world was better with him […]
