So no updates I apologize but many things have come up that required my attention. I'm in the process of putting up a website for Tastemakers Music Magazine, Northeastern's music magazine. Learning wordpress has given me some more perspective on the whole blogging thing and I've decided once this website goes live I'm going to redo hippomusic in wordpress and make it incredibly sexy. I might ha...

Sabbatical...
Yall.....
So yall may notice a bit of a different look on the homepage. Steven was a beast and tackled the html coding I couldn't fix. Points for Steven. But back to why you all (and by all I mean the few readers we have) come here. I read pitchfork daily. No surprise there. Recently pitchfork nominated Antony and the Johnons new album, The Crying Light, as an album to check out of the new year and as he...

Mountain Dew music?!
Now longer by request.... My post!Here's something interesting! Mountain Dew has its own label and is sponsoring several artists including Matt & Kim and The Cool Kids. But by far the most interesting (and catchy) song in their lineup is Big Bills by Flosstradamus feat. Caroline Polachek. With a name like Flosstradamus, it's not entirely surprising that the song (and the members themselves) ...

Back into the swing of things...
I must apologize for the delay in posting. I was taking a much needed break during the winter while planning on resuming once the school year started, but thanks to school that didn't happen. But I'll try to get organized and get some regular posting in. In my absence some highly anticipated albums have been released and shaken things up in the music world. I'll start off with Animal Collective..

Quickie
So I've been hella busy with finals and all that, but I some how managed to get in some quality music time. Finals = more procrastination, that being said this post is just going to be a quick blurb with some cool beats I found. I also saw Bon Iver live two nights ago and damn it was one of the best shows I have ever been to, but there will be a whole post devoted to those guys later. Hot ChipÂ

Eat Your Own Spaceship...
So as we are closing in upon the holiday known as Christmas, there is one artistic endeavor that I would like to recognize, and that is the Flaming Lips's newly released movie Christmas on Mars.Now this isn't exactly your classic holiday movie, but hopefully it can be the Rocky Horror of Christmas movies, or at least some kind of cult classic, because even though I ended up watching a

It's been awhile...
Sorry for the long break in posting! Thanksgiving break was busy with friends and cooking and such. School has also been winding down so I've been trying to knock out final projects. But now back to the music. Generally with the blog I have been focusing on music I like and what I hear in them. So I was going to sit and write and blog post in Los Campesinos!, but this morning I found a website
