Young Empires – Enter Through The Sun


If eternally bouyant electro musical fare is your bag (or one of them) then I think I got a fix for you. Matthew Vlahovich. Aaron Ellingson. Jacob Palahnuk. = Young Empires. Maybe not a holy trinity but a triangular array of dreamy space stuff just the same. Plug “Enter Through The Sun” into your headphones and ride this motha’ to shore. Check out more Young Empire music here. Peace.

Clubfeet – Last Words (The C90s Remix)

It is time to unwind. Take a sip of something wet with a very high alcohol content and chillax. The track “Last Words” is just what the Dr. ordered and Clubfeet is the dispensary of such luscious grooves. I’ve provided a bit of audio and a bit of video for your viewing and listening pleasure. I have also added a video for the sultry “Edge Of Extremes” as a chaser. By the way, you can check out other selections here. Peace.

Wale – Ambition (Ft. Meek Mill & Rick Ross)

All roads lead somewhere. All signs speak truth. Yesterday is gone. Today is here and tomorrow ain’t promised. So, what do you have to lose by chasing your dreams? Nothing. Never settle. Never give up. Keep your chin up. And most of all FUCK the haters. Shout out to all those who reach for the sky no matter how impossible or unlikely the goal (Psst … no such thing as an impossible or unlikely goal). Peace.

MGMT – Someone’s Missing/All We Ever Wanted Was Everything

Dim lit halls. Lazy half-light and weathered eyes worn and frayed. Someone cannot hope to see beyond this moment and tomorrow is fading fast. But somehow against their better judgement they wait it out a bit longer.  Someone is being thrown a lifesaver in the form of a song. At times it is just as simple as that. Peace.

Someone’s Missing

 

All We Ever Wanted Was Everything (Bauhaus Cover)

Pinemarten – Don’t Let Me Be Denied

Some songs you listen to and soon thereafter they fade into the sunset. Then there are those songs (like the ones I post here) that really have a shot at ending up in your iPod. Although you’ve more than likely never heard of U.K. producer Pinemarten you can expect that slight oversight to change in 2012. With the forthcoming release of If You Thought There Was Any Doubt scheduled for a November 28th release you can rest assured that his song “Don’t Let Me Be Denied” is only the beginning. Give you ears a “sound treat” and let them chew on the audio below. Peace.

Thieving Irons – So Long


Sprinkle this song liberally over your day and your bound to develop a craving for it quite soon. Thieving Irons is the creative outlet for Nate Martinez, whose no newbie to this whole music thing. Listen to “So Long” and “Pale Blue Dots” and I have a feeling you’re going to have a new band crush. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Peace.

So Long

Pale Blue Dots

Tennis – Origins

Ride with me. Come on just for a little while. Up above the treetops and out above the sleeping houses. Let’s make a left here and head west and float out over Lake Michigan. Now, look down below at the moonlight reflecting on the rippling waters. Now, close your eyes and just let yourself go. The band Tennis invokes such imagery, makes you feel like flying high and laying low. Their song “Origins” is just as seductive as it is charming and magnetic. Enjoy. Peace.

Ra Ra Rasputin – Ra Ra Rasputin

Got to love music that makes you want to jump around, right? Anna Rozzi, Brock Boss, Patrick Kigongo and Ken Quam somehow get it right when it comes to doing just that in the form of Ra Ra Rasputin. This quartet has built an album designed to make you smile and shimmy the day (and night) away. If you have an affinity for FM Belfast then you’ll love Ra Ra Rasputin just fine. Peace.

gary clark jr. // bright lights

Singing the blues is a serious commitment and by all accounts it looks (and sounds) like the blues and Gary Clark Jr. are in it for the long haul. His new EP Bright Lights is quite the listen, if you have doubts listen to “When My Train Pulls In”. But make sure your ready to be blown away. No bullshit hype here just the facts, just the facts. Peace.

Childish Gambino – Debuts ‘Camp’ on NPR’s First Listen

I know your geeked. As I am. I’ve been waiting for this for too long. Finally, we all get to listen to Childish Gambino‘s new album Camp. So bump it from beginning to end and just grin and “share” with your friends via social networks galore. Anyway, go get your listen on at NPR’s First Listen here. Holla back and let me know what you think. By the way, my fav is “Hold You Down”. Peace.

P.S. Shout out to Eboné for keeping me informed and on point, you’re the best.
