[MP3] Hands: “Windows”

Stumbled upon this beauty of a track today and couldn’t help but post it ASAP. Mixing everything we’ve come to love about 2009’s progression of tribal influences and experimentation, Hands, a duo out of Los Angeles, are more than ready to carve out a role for themselves in the indie pop scene of 2010. At… Continue reading [MP3] Hands: “Windows”

[MP3] Green Pitch: “A Letter of Stone”

Supposedly, Danish band Green Pitch released its most recent album, La Jolla, in April 2009. And I haven’t heard of them until today? What’s up with that, am I right? So I checked them out, and as it turned out the music was a perfect complement to today: lying in bed while the sun refuses… Continue reading [MP3] Green Pitch: “A Letter of Stone”

[MP3 + Video] Angus & Julia Stone: “And The Boys”

What’s that? New music from Australian sibling sensations Angus & Julia Stone?? With Angus’s new side project, Lady Of The Sunshine, receiving its fair share of press lately, he seems quite willing to let Julia take the reigns on “And The Boys”, the new single from their forthcoming (March 2010) sophomore LP, Down The Way.… Continue reading [MP3 + Video] Angus & Julia Stone: “And The Boys”

[MP3] ortoPilot: “Stay One More Day”

To say much about this song would take away from its inherent beauty. We talk a lot about the songs we post here; but experience comes first with music. (And, uh, we didn’t get much from the email, so that doesn’t help matters…) Listen to this song at night. It might be reminiscent of some… Continue reading [MP3] ortoPilot: “Stay One More Day”

Knox Road’s Christmas Mix

So last year, I did a series called “12 Days of Christmas Music” and it was great! Very much a lot of fun! But this December was kind of hectic, very much a lot of busy. So I’m going to have to make you wait until next year for a comprehensive, 12-day tour de force… Continue reading Knox Road’s Christmas Mix

Homeless person makes “Creep” into a tearjerker

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m late to the party on this one. So sue me (please don’t). Anyway! A little while ago, The Opie and Anthony Show found this apparently homeless fellow on the street, brought him into the studio, gave him a beautiful Taylor guitar, and the rest, as they say, is history. Or at… Continue reading Homeless person makes “Creep” into a tearjerker

The Album Leaf is set to release a new album, A Chorus Of Storytellers, February 2, 2010 on Subpop. Wait, let me repeat that. THE Album Leaf have a new album coming out! *Screams of Joy (J capitalized for effect)* Usually I’d say Jimmy LaValle is so talented and all that jazz, but this time… Continue reading Notable Album Release: The Album Leaf – A Chorus Of Storytellers
