a little late posting this one up, but this is a seriously legit remix. love what king britt did with the track. here’s what he had to say about it:
“But here, I finally present, by popular demand, my remix (or reproduction) of Anne. This song is a very heavy tune and I wanted to give Santi a very cinematic point of view. Santi loved it and we agreed to give it out.”
get, get ‘em.

one of my favorite bands of all time, one of my favorite albums of all time. as a thank you (and in celebration of the clarity live tour), jimmy eat world decided to put up a track by track breakdown of clarity. i’m about to put this album on and read this as each song plays. i suggest you do the same..

new song from the always prolific mars volta. i’m loving what i hear. and if this is any indication of the direction of octahedron (it’s probably not), then i’ll love it. bedlam was their best since de-loused, in my opinion. octahedron is in stores june 23, and this is the first single.

hot damn i love this video. i’ve been obsessed with this song for a minute now. this is some real, real, REAL soulful shit. stones throw up.

brooklyn stand up. fresh daily is an up and comer out of the bk, with one of the better descriptions of himself i’ve ever seen:
If you took alot of Jay-Z’s swagger, a little of Kanye’s flow, some of Pharrell’s fashion sensiblity, a touch of Common’s consciousness and style, Boot Camp Clik’s Brooklyn pride and underground appeal and mixed in MF Doom’s and Andre3000′s creative wordplay and swirled it in a pot with a poverty-stricken childhood and throw in the mind of Larry David, you get an emcee who has a natural penchant for stunting and swagger that almost brinks on the precepice of “asshole” except for his genuine personality, well then you’d be Fresh. Daily. I’m am emcee. I’m a graphic illustrator. I’m a sneakerhead and a gearfreak, teetering dangerously on the edge of being a hype beast. I am the flyest nerd you’ll ever meet. I am Brooklyn. I am Ft. Greenes mayor. I am 1996 seen thru ’89 Cazals rocking a dookie gold rope chain. I am the Blackstar video for “Definition” riding in a van with Jay-Z and Slick Rick. Get creative.
anyway, here’s a new track off his upcoming mixtape tomorrow is today, which is dropping in may.

so what’s the general consensus on years of refusal? it’s really hard for morrissey to do any wrong in my eyes, but that withstanding, i still think it’s an amazing album.

all those denim vests, wayfarers, marty mcfly high-tops and mullets are more than just the aesthetic of a bat-shit crazy ye: it’s clear that a love for the 80′s and a little tongue-in-cheek story about a controling female inspired his song robocop. strange how well mega man and a few 8-bit flashing lights (i went there) compliment his song. favorite moment: when our heroine sprinkles energy balls on her robotic nemesis (2:00). sprinkles!?!

taking influences from the zombies, the byrds and the velvet underground and soundling like their contemporaries midlake and grizzly bear, papercuts craft wistful lo-fi indie pop songs that are as catchy as they are gentle. singer jason robert quever sings in a dreamy, insular manner, drawing you in with his boyish vocals and bittersweet lyrics. the band’s music marches along as well, equal parts dream pop rock and folk, creating a quirky yet refined sound perfectly complimenting quever’s plaintive melodies. it’s endearing to hear a modern band with such a great understanding of their musical influences that came before them, the impressions of which leaving a lasting mark on their music.
papercuts’ 3rd album, you can have what you want, is out now.

man o, complete with the grizzliest (hehe) andy hull you’ve ever seen, do a great acoustic rendition of their album opener, the only one. ignore the fact that it’s for one of the worst publications in america and get on this album kiddos. the hype is no joke.

edit: it’s not vimeo, but we’ll see how long it lasts.
i was actually talking to some friends about talib kweli last night at the bar, so this was a nice treat to get today. ill footage of refection eternal destroying it at skidmore college. kweli freestyles over “get em high” and does his verse, followed by a new refection eternal track, and “get by”. you mean talib, lyrics stick to your rib?

just wanted to send some love out to space city rock, a great houston based website. i used to use to this site find bands to play in back in ’02 when i lived in houston. they did a recent write up on us in their blog section where they said the following:
weworemasks: Another I’m not super-familiar with yet, but fuck, they’re prolific as hell and can write like mofos. I’m jealous, y’all, especially since they interviewed P.O.S. back in March — something I attempted to set up last year but got dissed by the label/PR people for. But hey, I love the guy’s music, so any press he gets is good, right? This is a bit of an oddbal blog, btw, since it’s half based here and half in Plano (I think?). Still, well worth reading.
you can check out space city rock here. and since you’re reading this now, it means you already have good taste. you should tell anywhere from 5-50 friends about us every day.
