i have been a fan of the amazing band villagers helmed by the very talented (understatement) conner j. o’brien and although the band’s sophomore album ‘awayland’ is due to drop january 3rd i highly recommend checking out the band’s debut release ‘becoming a jackal‘ to get a feel for this band’s complete mastery of intelligent and thematic indie-pop. in my humble estimation this is a band more people should become familiar with, you’ll thank yourself later. after the jump check out the video for the song, “waves” and enjoy. peace. Continue reading “villagers // waves”

Continue reading “jeremih // *uck u all the time (shlohmo remix)”
one sure way to pique my musical interest is to lay down some sensuous femme vocals over a wickedly dangerous track. anneka is an accomplished vocalist/multi-instrumentalist and visual artist based in brighton, u.k. who isn’t afraid to try different approaches to further her craft. and, if you’ve followed this blog for some time then her name is a familiar one. and for good reason, she makes another appearance here with her song, “jaws of day” . the track was originally included as part of the electronic explorations compilation released mid-summer. however, it is available now as a single for immediate download too, how cool is that? after listening to this gem i am eagerly awaiting more music from anneka sooner rather than later. peace. Continue reading “anneka // jaws of day”

The Weeknd has been building tremendous hype for the past couple of years. So naturally there is a great deal of anticipation for his debut trilogy album. Unfortunately, the minus is his debut release contains material we’ve already heard on his previous mixtapes. The positive, is the songs are remastered for this release. Yeah,it’s a small thing. but the big plus is the addition of three new songs, “Twenty Eight”, “Valerie” and “Till Dawn (Here Comes The Sun)”. You can cop the trilogy via itunes. peace. Continue reading “the weeknd // wicked games”
