Even though I’m not going back to school this time around, my summer is almost over, and like the one before it, this one had a soundtrack. Last summer’s playlist was made up of Trojan Records box sets, Easy Star Allstars, and Leftover Crack (C4 can definitely vouch for that!), but his summer I’ve been vibing on more exotic electronic music that has been (justly) overrun by Diplo. In case you weren’t aware, Diplo is a fantastic producer who seems to surround himself with the coolest and most talented musicians from all corners of the earth. (i.e. Curtis Continue reading Skinny Dip(lo): Summer Mixtape Vol. 2…
 Officially, “The Bowl welcomes the longed-for return of post-punk messiahs Pavement for an amazing show of rock royalty that also includes the iconic and experimental sounds of Sonic Youth and heirs to the lo-fi throne No Age.” Damn. Heirs to the lo-fi throne? No Age must be pretty stoked. Seriously, and I say this with love, who the fuck cares about No Age when PAVEMENT AND SONIC YOUTH ARE PLAYING TOGETHER? I sure don’t. Um, count me in. And by “count me in” I actually meant to say “Please buy me tickets so I can go cause I Continue reading Pavement and Sonic Youth at the Hollywood Bowl…
 I find it rather fitting that this is basically the only thing you’ll find on any link that has to do with the upcoming Brian Eno Warp release. Anybody have high hopes for this one?
 Last night I discovered that I have three very different and totally awesome versions of The Beatles’ harmonica-pop gem from A Hard Day’s Night – “I Should Have Known Better.” It should go without saying that version 1 is, of course, the original. Version 2 is a great duet, by She & Him, who will be performing at the 2010 Lou Fest on August 29th in St. Louis. M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel alternate vocal lines over a laid-back, galloping beat with Hawaiian-inspired guitar slides. Totally different take on a classic track. My favorite is version 3, by Continue reading You should have known better, rude boy!…
 I’ve been a little slow on the blog this summer, with good reason – dog, new job, no money, etc – but I figure it’s kind of my duty to kick you guys down with the details for this year’s FYF Fest, since I’ve done it pretty much every year…. The lineup was announced a week or 2 ago and includes some pretty awesome shit that we’ve written about in the past…. For starters, fucking UNBROKEN is on this years FYF lineup. Yeah, and I do mean the Life Love Regret UNBROKEN. What the fuck? My friend had Continue reading FYF Fest 2010 Is Just Around The Corner – Lineup, Etc….
 Are we really here? Is this really happening? When we say that we never thought this day would come, we REALLY mean it. The rumor of a new Three Mile Pilot album has been circulating for over a decade, further fueling the mystery and mythology that has swirled around the San Diego trio since the 1997 release of what was thought to be their swan song, the enormously influential Another Desert, Another Sea. The new release is called The Inevitable Past Is The Future Forgotten and it’s the first Three Mile Pilot album in 13 years. It also Continue reading New Three Mile Pilot Album Coming This Fall…

 To celebrate the sun finally coming out in the Midwest, here are a few odes to summer -perfect for porch sittin’ and pool-side sippin’. The Aggrolites – Reggae Summertime Ice Cube – My Summer Vacation Neon Indian – Deadbeat Summer Of Montreal – Oslo In The Summertime DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince – Summertime Kolohe Kai – Cool Down Jimi Hendrix – Long Hot Summer Night
 Last week, Rock The Bells 2010 announced the addition of Snoop Dogg, A Tribe Called Quest, and Lauryn Hill just days before tickets were to go on sale. Pretty slick move if you ask me. But it gets better – Snoop Dogg will perform the entirety of his debut album Doggystyle – do you have any idea how much that rules? Tribe will perform Midnight Marauders, and to top it off there will be a very special performance from Lauryn Hill. LAURYN HILL! Right?? The three legends were added to an already star-studded lineup that includes Wu-Tang (PERFORMING Continue reading Snoop, Tribe, and Hill Added to Rock The Bells 2010…
 I’m pretty into Soul and R&B, like, the popular kind – not just the old stuff. I dig it so much that sometimes my friends don’t even get it so I’ve stopped mentioning it. I guess you could say it’s a guilty pleasure of mine, like how c4 really likes NOFX and would probably pick Punk In Drublic if she could only listen to one record for the rest of her life. But truthfully, I really don’t feel very guilty about it at all. What’s it to anybody else if I like pop, right? Enter Alicia Keys. She Continue reading Thank God For Alicia Keys…
