Some good music coming to Texas next month. Teen Daze will be in Denton and Austin next month. Chillwave isn’t just for summertime anymore. I’ll be excited to see them play. Both “Cold House” and “Everywhere” are great songs. You can dl Digital 7” No. 1: Cold House b/w Everywhere off their website for free. Just Click Here

Such a great song from this duo out of San Diego. Unsigned and relatively unknown, at the moment, but I’m positive that will soon change. One of the best Indie songs I have heard in a long time. It really makes me miss the good times I have had in San Diego

The famous Carl Craig does a slow bass driven remix of Hot Chip’s “One Life Stand.”

Acid Girls Love Cake

Great video by some great dudes. The Acid Girls have been all over the blogosphere for the past couple of years but it really took me seeing them live at SXSW this year for me to really appreciate there skills. These guys have the good mixing skills and right vibe to really put on a fun show. They are definitely worth seeing if they come to your neck of the woods.

The New MGMT?

Possibly. I say unlikely. Fuck the radio regardless

Going through a rough break up at the moment. Only means I’ll be stronger in the longer run. I have been listening to a bunch of classic rock etc with lyrics about love getting fucked up. I’ve never really appreciated it until now. You will too once you end up going through the same thing. We all do.

Warren Zevon has some words to live by. Bet ya only knew of “Werewolves of London.” Bad ass too. Both are live versions. RIP Zevon. I’ll be smoking blunts with you and Johnny C. soon enough.

Duck Cover and Hold

tssmithaz — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 07:26:19 +0000

I have been seeing a lot of remixes by Swedish producer Linus Eklow, aka. Style of Eye, in the blogosphere lately. Which normally would be great thing. However, I have been disappointed by the quality of them. So far, my favorite track by Style of Eye continues to be “Last Song” from the Duck Cover and Hold album released on Ultra. Enjoy

Exploring Our Orbit

Orbital Myspace

Orbital has been around ages. K only a couple of decades, but I am sure some of their select tunes will be timeless. “Halcyon + On + On” is one of the first electronic tracks I listened to as a kid. I remember hearing it while watching the movie Hackers. I am not sure that movie will stand the test of time, but I promise the track will.

Another great track of Orbital’s I recommend is “Belfast.”

There is even a track Pitchfork acknowledges. “Chime” was listed in their Pitchfork 500 list.
