[Hypeworthy] Gotye
Artists mentioned:I along with two of my close friends are one day away from embarking on a cross-country-and-back road trip that's sure to severely limit my contact with the interweb and those thriving within it.

Tuesday's Coming.. Did you bring your coat?
Artists mentioned:I'm not feeling fat or sassy and I doubt you'd need a coat in this weather but I did just get back from Louisville after being forced to listen to a friend's spectacular band whilst doing the fake smile+head bob as my ears wept internally. Things have been slow around...(read full post)

Ride The Moon Taxi!
Artists mentioned:Gettin' back into the swing can be a strenuous transition, but thankfully I've been rocking some groovy tunes lately to help transform a summer mindset into a "summer + some school" thought pattern.

Back & On The Move
Artists mentioned:NYC was a blast as I come back to the Bluegrass with some grand stories ("When was the last time you spent a night in jail in the Bronx?!" or "How do you like my Kanye shades?"), significantly less money, and an appreciation for both the fast paced urban lifestyle...(read full post)

[MP3] Bitter:Sweet : "The Bomb"
Artists mentioned:Bittersweet because it's been storming/pouring for the last 48 hours; good sleeping weather when you're sick but bad playing weather for my 10-year-old little brother. Bittersweet because of the historic, democratic night as Obama officially clinches the nomination (woo!) over Clinton; we already know how "Fair & Balanced" (snicker) Fox...(read full post)

[MP3] Electric Touch: "Don't Be Afraid"
Artists mentioned:For a city that maintains the local motto "Keep Austin Weird" and has nearly 200 live music venues, it would seem that it's just as good as any of the other musically nurturing cities (i.e. Brooklyn, Seattle, etc.) for a band to emerge from. This Austin-located band going by the...(read full post)

[MP3] The Do: "Stay (Just A Little Bit More)"
Artists mentioned:I will preface this entire post by making a presumptuous claim: you will really like this song. It's extremely enjoyable, light, happy, and so perfect in its construction that I don't even know where it came from! Fear not, for after some light research into the band that created such...(read full post)
