The Shins // Bait And Switch (Video)

I so glad James Mercer and Co. (The Shins) are so generous with the music, the videos and whatever else they’ve thrown our way. Here, we have another glimpse of what to we can expect from the forthcoming Port Of Morrow LP. On this visual of “Bait And switch” we are treated to The Shins performing live and it’s a most beautiful thing indeed. Is it me, or does James Mercer have one the coolest singing voices, EVER! Make sure you mark you time-keeping devices for March 20th, or course it’s important, that’s the day The Shins release Port Of Morrow to the world. And if you haven’t you can most definitely Pre-Order it HERE. Peace. Continue reading “The Shins // Bait And Switch (Video)”

Nas Ft. Damian Marley (DallasK Remix)

The thing about this collaboration is if you know about Nas then you expect the mic to be spit upon graciously. Same goes for Damian Marley, you know he’s going to bring fire and a whole mess of organic soul music. However, there is an x-factor here with this particular remix and it goes by the name DallasK, but don’t you dare fret. This up & coming Orlando based Producer/DJ (Dallas Koehlke) is the real deal. But I’ma shut up and let DallasK shove & prove. Hold on tight. Peace. Continue reading “Nas Ft. Damian Marley (DallasK Remix)”

M. Ward // The First Time I Ran Away (Video)

M. Ward is a busy man, but when he’s not making beautiful music with Zooey Deschanel as the duo She & Him, he has been slowly putting together his forthcoming 8th studio album A Wasteland Companion. The album is slated for a March 10th release, but until then check out the song, “Primitive Girl” and the Joel Trussell video for the song, “The First Time I Ran Away”. Both are excellent because that is how M. Ward rolls. To pre-order the Wasteland Companion head on over to Merge Records and do the damn thang. By the way, you can also get the single “Primitive Girl” on iTunes. Peace. Continue reading “M. Ward // The First Time I Ran Away (Video)”
