arod // springglo 2013 mix

Some music is just not conducive to moving your body parts. This is so not the case with aROD’s brand of groove theory

DJ producer Andrew Rodriguez (aRod) hails from sunny Santa Barbara, Cali but he might as well be from Venus. What’s so special about this sound craftsman? Well, for starters his brand of music is soaked to the gills with a pure silky groove reminiscent of a baby’s bottom. Check out his official SpringGlo 2013 Mix courtesy of our brethren over at GottaDanceDirty. The flow is so celestial. Peace. Continue reading “arod // springglo 2013 mix”

ruby fröst // water to ice (golden age remix)

Music is an unstoppable force of which we cannot resist… nor want to.

I have a muse and her name is Teddi Stavee. She keeps whispering the most incredible things in my ear. Case in point, she recommended New Zealand vocalist Ruby Fröst‘s Water To Ice (Golden Age Remix) to me. And of course she’s right (Muses are always right) when conveying an inability to stop listening to it. I feel the same way. You can catch Ms. Fröst in all of her unbridled vocal glory on her debut release Volition via iTunes. Peace. Continue reading “ruby fröst // water to ice (golden age remix)”

tv girl // if you want it

Back in the day (someone’s day) TV stations signed off for the night. Well, TV Girl’s signal never goes out.

Agreed it’s been a long minute since we’ve had the pleasure of hearing something new from San Diego, CA-based duo TV Girl (they’re mixtape The Wild, The Innocent, The TV Shuffle (2012) was a total gas)but that doesn’t mean they (Trung Ngo and Brad Petering) aren’t hard at work. According to sources they have a new EP coming out soon, not to mention the spectacular Coma Cinema they’ve helped record. Check this, whilst we wait, albeit impatiently, for the new songs the duo has put together a Spring Break playlist for Found Footage Mag. After the jump check out one of all time TV Girl tracks from yesteryear. Peace. Continue reading “tv girl // if you want it”

day joy // walking home + go to sleep, mess

Deceptively deft at making your heart smile at the sadness of it all.

When you play the Orlando, Florida band Day Joy as a precautionary measure it makes perfect sense to do so while sitting down or laying in a prone position. Why you ask? Well, their music has a way of turning your bones (and heart) to gelatinous goo. After the jump listen to Walking Home and the title track Go To Sleep, Mess, you’ve been warned. The alum Go To Sleep Mess dropped earlier this year via Small Plates Records, and you can cop it right here, right now on iTunes. Peace.

The new video was directed by Stefan Parker and the new material drops April 1st courtesy of Play It Again Sam. Peace. Continue reading “andy burrows // if i had a heart”
