Featuring just Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood accompanied by the USC Marching band, Radiohead’s performance of 15 Step on the Grammys was downright brilliant. Who knew combining this song with a marching band would work, but it turned out to be a perfect combination. It is also pretty ironic how Coldplay front [...]
Before Pink Floyd released Dark Side of the Moon and became big rock stars, a couple of their albums were actually soundtracks to late 60's early 70's crazy hippie movies. One of my favorite Pink Floyd albums is Obscured By Clouds which is actually the soundtrack to a 1972 french film called La Vallée [...]
I first heard this song on the SiriusXMU channel on Sirius Satellite radio a couple months ago. I liked it for its quirky, catchy take on dance music. After hearing it several times on the radio, I kept making a note to myself to download the song. The only problem was I [...]
So I finally decided on a new design for A Tender Praise. I think it looks pretty good. I tried to keep the same feel as the old design. The crossover wasn’t too hard to accomplish. I basically had to change the dimensions of the photos and videos on the most [...]

I have been a fan of the Black Lips ever since Good Bad Not Evil came out in 2007. I never realize what albums I like the most or what albums I listen to the most until I look at my iTunes Play Count and realize how much I play a certain album. [...]
So this song is already a year and a half old but I just heard it and like it, so I am going to post about it. I saw Yacht open for LCD Soundsystem and he is a pretty entertaining act. Kind of like the high school geek who got good at sampling [...]
I have never seen this before. Pretty cool and frightening at the same time. At around 5 minutes and 25 seconds, Yoko sounds like the lady in the following video….
From New Villager’s Myspace:“Buried deep in the American memory hole is this thing called NewVillager that threatens to—if not watched, and studied, and cornered—collapse all that is around it in on itself. NewVillager is, as you no doubt know, a part of a tradition that begins with Villager. Continued to Villager 2. And VillagerVillager. And [...]
I saw this last month but forgot to post about it. Memories and nostalgia of jamming out in a suburban home basement, covering Phish, Grateful Dead and classic rock tunes flood my mind. Or how about the half an hour space freak out jam over A minor? Or recording a psychedelic sound [...]
Our Autotune friend Kanye West has leaked a new Peter, Bjorn and John track on his blog, which appears to be on their new album that comes out in March. I am not really sure what to think of the song yet. It features a children's choir along the lines of D.A.N.C.E by [...]
Can we say contender for the best single stateside in 09′? Already getting major airplay in Australia since August, Empire of the Sun is a collaboration between Luck Steele of The Sleepy Jackson and Nick Littlemore of Pnau, both Australian based musicians. Already huge in Australia, the single "Walking on a Dream" is [...]
It looks like Jay-Z can't stop getting mashed up with other artists. New York producer Minty Fresh Beats has released an album of Jay-Z/Radiohead mash-ups entitled "Jaydiohead." The album features 9 tracks of Jay-Z mixed Radiohead and one with Thom Yorke. You can download the album for free at www.jaydiohead.com. The Full Tracklisting: 01 Wrong Prayer 02 [...]

Hey look, its another end of the year list. I am not sure if there is a difference between "best" album of the year and "favorite" album of the year, but I am pretty sure I could make another list that covers what I think were the best albums of the year, even if they [...]
Over a morning cup of coffee the day before your senior year as a playwright student at the University of North Carolina your thoughts become clear. ”I am unhappy here.” So what do you do? You pack up your bags, drive the longest route possible to Chicago, work as a carpenter by day, pick up [...]
