Inner Moonlight

I've been having a yen for guitar-based music for a couple weeks now. Is it just me or do guitars sound cool again?....

yet another preview to a 'special post' **coming soon**

Sample Stain

So maybe since I'm just gonna get so much ridicule anyway, I'll just post whatever...


Way behind on this one, but have fun!

Can I Live?

Been stalking Drew's facebook, and it looks like he finished his tenure helping 6 yr. old Asian girls float in the pool. And since we both recently had birthdays that officially branded us as old ass men, I say this marks a new beginning. It's time to make something of ourselves. To make something of the blog. No longer accepting staid concepts like 'new urbanism', '(computer generated) lo-fi', 'mixed use retail/condo developments', or 'cassette-only releases' as an answer. We gotta make something new, something real. We gotta do it for our consort, who've been down since day 1. We gotta do it for the 'hood, because the suburbs aren't that much different from the streets [via spiritual ghettos]. In the spirit of the come up, I leave you, the reader, with this blessing: wherever you're going, whatever you're planning on doing - Win this week.

This track will not be appearing on the Golden Age comp (it technically falls outside the timeframe)... but hip hop never really got better than this, did it?

As if Odd Future needed to be smacked any further out the frame, apparently the LOX reunited and have a new album coming out this year (?!?!), their first in over a decade. This never happens in hip hop. Pray that it doesn't turn out like most rock reunions (see Guns N' Roses)

Squeeze my hand as hard as it hurts

I'm working on like, 3 ambitious posts that may or may not see the light of the blog (the title of this one is a clue), but in the meantime, I'm just gonna fire off these youtube clips from Memoryhouse. These tracks struck me as a good example of stuff from 2010 that was 'not that good, but not that bad either', of which there was an abundance. Not 'best of' material, but deserves its spot here due to the choice Jon Brion sample (c.f. Eternal Sunshine soundtrack) used in the latter.

Serve chilled and enjoy.
