Built To Spill - There Is No Enemy LP

Over three years have passed since indie rock great Built To Spill have released their past album. There new album, There Is No Enemy, is scheduled to release in a few days on Oct 6th. I am a huge fan of Doug Martsch (lead singer) and am stoked to hear what the band can come up with, as they have been together for almost 20 years. Below are links to listen to two of the eleven tracks on the LP, enjoy.


Wisconsin is for lovers


Discovered this little diddy after my second cup of coffee this morning. It was a pleasant surprise for sleepy eyes. The group is called DeYarmond Edison, Justin Vernon's band before Bon Iver. This is the band that split up after Justin got a case of the ol' mononucleosis, fueling Justin to go to his fathers cabin and create "For Emma, Forever Ago", which may be the most productive thing ever done by someone with Mono. The rest of the members created a group called MegaFaun, but before all that, they created this enjoyable folk number

DJ Green Lantern & Styles P - "The Green Ghost Project" Press Release & Artwork


“The Evil Genius” DJ Green Lantern, and Styles P “The Ghost” have joined forces to create a monster – “The Green Ghost Project” – and on Nov 17th the world will say “It’s Alive!!!”

“The Green Ghost Project”, a joint album filled with original production from DJ Green Lantern, Alchemist, Scram Jones, Statik Selektah, etc., can be seen as the next natural step for the two mixtape veterans who constantly look to push the boundaries of how Hip Hop is given to the fans. “Styles and I got together and made a monster”, says Green of the project, which is being distributed through Invasion/The Orchard.

“Don’t call me ‘The Ghost’ right now, call me ‘The Green Ghost’”, remarks Styles P about the album’s sinister undertone. “It’s a different display of talent. We got together and brainstormed about it and it came out crazy!”

DJ Green Lantern and Styles also added some potent ingredients to the mix in the form of guest appearances from Jadakiss, Sheek Louch, M.O.P, N.O.R.E, Uncle Murda, Junior Reid, and more, taking “The Green Ghost Project” to truly “monstrous” proportions.

NEWBURGH NY


I don't usually listen to much hip-hop, but when I heard this song I just couldn't stop re-playing it. Angel's innovative lyrics mixed with his un-matchable flow makes him a serious force to contend with in the rap game today. What can I say Angel just has love for his city, and he rep's it hard. Matt this one is for you... also this is a joke if anyone hasn't realized that yet.. sorry it wont happen again

Apple Cidar Season

I am big fan of fall in New England. Sweaters, soup, orange skies and brown leafs. I have playlist upon playlist dedicated to this time of year, lots of Bon Iver, Fleet foxes, Bowerbirds, Horse Feathers and Elvis Perkins. Recently I have being listening to alot of Peter and The Wolf, a folkie band out of Liverpool, UK.

So put on some chords and tweed, put a little whiskey in your Cidar and enjoy.

Safe Travels- Peter and The Wolf


Calvin Harris is sick. So is this remix.

Oh No - Dr. No's Ethiopium

Oh No recently released the LP Dr. No's Ethiopium. Brothers with rapper Madlib, the incredibly talented MC has been writing and recording beats since age 11. Digitally released on Stone Throw Records, the LP features a combination jazz, funk, hip hop, and electronica. I ended up just buying the album online and it was well worth it. J Dilla fans... you gotta check this one out! Attached is a link to the song "The Pain" thats off the LP.

Animal Collective and The Beach Boys

Recently released by a blog called Porch of the Mystics is a Animal Collective and Beach Boys remix entitled "I'm Waiting for My Banshee". The song is a mixture of Animal Collective's "Banshee Beat" and the Beach Boys's "I'm Waiting For The Day". The song shows off vocal harmonies from both bands with Banshee Beat as the instrumental. Its definitely worth the listen, check it.

Feel It All Around (Remix)

Ernest Greene, A.k.a Washed Out, just released a remix of his track "Feel It All Around". The remix was made by Toro Y Moi, a fellow South Carolinian and friend of Greene. Keeping the laid back sound of the original track but adding percussion and a funkier rthym, Toro Y Moi's remix is a fun listen. The track will be released on Greene's Feel It All Around 7" single coming out soon. Check it out...

Real Estate



I recently found out about the band Real Estate, a New Jersey/Brooklyn collaboaration that is gaining popularity amongst the thousands of music blogs out there. Following the trend of low-fi recording, the band has recorded most (if not all) of their music themselves in various locations throughout Brooklyn and Ridgewood, NJ. The band's style is unique, as their songs sound like a mixture of hazy summer pop with a bit of punk. Below I have attached my favorite tracks thus far, Enjoy!

Jay Z cover, kinda

I've been listening to alot of rap lately, I am not proud of it, but I have been. Jay Z's new album The Blue Print 3 "leaked" on the internet a week or so ago, and since then there has already been a shit ton of remixes, I found this gem on hypem. I have no clue who it is, but he kills it, makes me want to buy an AK-47....

Washed Out - Life of Leisure



Finally something progressive to come out of South Carolina.  At first, I wasn't sure what to make of Washed Out or their latest venture Life of Leisure, but as I leave for springy South America, the hazy track "You'll See It" makes me want for one last dehydrated day on Folly beach.  The beginning of "Hold Out" could totally be Cut Copy, but the distant vocals and lazy beat lends to a sound all Ernest Greene's.  You can stream most of Life of Leisure here with additional links for downloads, and if you're into Washed Out and washed-out photography be sure to check out Mr. Greene's blog for a few snapshots as ethereal as the music he makes..

Feel like dancing??!?! Listen to Not Made for Love (remix) by Metronomy here.

High In One Eye - Neon Orange Walker




Guitar/Drums duo High In One Eye just released their first album Neon Orange Walker last month. The New Orleans band is super talented (last track "Digital Messiah" is improv, shits crazy) and plays with a ton of energy. The album is available for a download at Bandcamp.com and can be streamed at their Myspace. This band kills it, its definitely worth the download.

Yim Yames - Tribute To EP

Jim James, lead singer of My Morning Jacket, recently released a six-track compilation of George Harrison covers entitled Tribute To EP. Under the name of Yim Yames, the album features beautiful renditions of Harrison's tunes featuring the popular "My Sweet Lord" and "All Things Must Pass". Recorded in 2001, the EP sounds more like At Dawn then some of My Morning Jacket's newer releases. I am a huge fan of Jim James and I hope he continues the solo work. Check out Yim Yames at his myspace or download the EP on itunes....
