throwback thursday | my time | minus the bear

my time | minus the bear

my time | minus the bear

Minus The Bear and their track My Time is one of our gallantly danceable Throwback Thursday selections this week. The reason being? Well, give it a listen and you’ll get a chronic case of the “happy feets”. Don’t worry, it’ll wash off in the shower. The track My Time is included in the band’s Omni (2010) release. It’s the first song on the LP and for good reason. This one made my summer playlist on the strength of his listenability and groovy vivaciousness. Yeppers! I said it so check it out. Also, peep the My Time (NGHTBLND Remix) after the jump. Peace. Continue reading “throwback thursday | my time | minus the bear”

space flakes // best life of my time (official video)

Finally! One of the best tracks of 2011, “Best Life Of My Time” by Space Flakes has some optical eye candy. I must say the video is as trippy as the song is good. The video looks like the love child of Dr. Seuss and Louis Carol. However, it turns out to be some surreal animation inspired by Emery Hawkins circa 1977. Somehow it is fitting as the perfect representation of rampant, and blatant Western consumptionism. Yet, in the end it is the perfect visual accompaniment to Space Flakes’ sonically superior musical swag. Party on! Peace. Continue reading “space flakes // best life of my time (official video)”

Toddla T // Love Like Water (Toddla T Remix)

MIXED IN SHEFFIEEELLL! I love it! And I equally love the story of Toddla T and his journey from a milk on his breath 14-year old DJ way back in the day, to the much in demand mixmeister with the frenetic work schedule of today. His career is not only well documented by the numerous mixtapes, collabos, and guest appearances. But, Toddla T’s path showcases what a person can do when they love something; and it becomes their life. But make no mistake, love is only one part of the equation. This seemingly tireless DJ puts in work, and the fruits of his labor are displayed nastily on sonic gems like “Love Like Water” and “Take It Back (Ft. Shola Ama).” And so, I would be doing all of my followers a monumental disservice by not sharing Toddla T with you, right? And really that’s what the responsible citizen does upon discovering good music. See how you can get yours after the jump. Peace. Continue reading “Toddla T // Love Like Water (Toddla T Remix)”

Santigold – Big Mouth (Video)

I’ve been waiting for this for what seems like forever! New music from Santigold is always a positive, especially when it is as fun as her first release “Big Mouth,” from the forthcoming Master Of My Make-Believe. This song is a lot of things and none of them are bad. It’s raucous, a bit odd-ball, and laced with a sweet dancehall sound to keep you high-stepping deep into the night. Check out the Cody Critcheloe directed video below. Visit santigold.com and get your free Bigmouth download. No official release date on the LP, but I’ll keep you posted.  Peace.
