Nightly News and what the “cool kids” are listening to these days.

In order to do this, you need a tv anchor that wants to be hip. I am not just talking about “we don’t fucking torture!” hip, I am talking about the type of hip that allows you to talk to Deer Tick.

Panama Kings unreleased track

Panama Kings (out of Belfast) are releasing a new single on May 11th called “Golden Recruit.” After checking out the myspace of these guys, I decided that I would probably be alright to sway back and forth and bob my head in rhythmic fashion while their music is playing. That being said, it is […]

Alex Gladwell just wants you to listen.

What a weird creation. Lets take some lo-fi electronic beats that make you guess that you are about to listen to a trip-hop album. Now, insert a voice so jarring that the first time I heard it, I felt a chill go up and down somewhere on my body. Throw in some ambient […]
