Sharon Jones And The Dap Kings

October 6th, 2005

How about something a little different from the normal bigstereo drivel? I was handed this record a while back and have since wanted to post about it . But I haven’t known where to start – mainly because it is so out of my realm and knowledge base. It is so good though. I have [...]

Lesbians On Ecstasy

October 5th, 2005

The hardest past of this post is picking which track to feature. I have to admit that I was not a fan of last year’s self-titled debut by Lesbians On Ecstasy. It did nothing for me. But a year later, Lesbians On Ecstasy have released a vinyl only remix album that makes up for the [...]

Giggles

October 5th, 2005

Rchrd is demanding I post more jamms. And I promissed him this one yesterday… so better late than never? Giggles’ “Love Letter” is classic Freestyle… and unfortantely, like most artists in the genre, one of Giggles only ‘hits.’ She did have another song “What Goes Around Comes Around” in the 90′s that sparked a little [...]

Beck + Letterman

October 4th, 2005

Beck performed “Black Tambourine” off of his ‘Guero’ album last night on the Late Show With David Letterman. Watch: Beck – “Black Tambourine” (Quicktime 7) It is worth watching just for the dancing tambourine man who almost (accidentally) punches out Beck. Purchase: Insound Screencaps after the jump.

Freeform Five + Mylo

October 3rd, 2005

Freeform Five’s latest single is for their song “No More Conversations” and features remixes by Richard X, Mylo and Alter Ego. The original version is a dancey, twisted electro-disco-house number that echoes Kylie Minogue at her finest. But the Mylo remix strips it down, distorts and edits the vocals and adds a fast ray gun. [...]

Candyman

October 3rd, 2005

I don’t know much about this guy apart from the fact that was with Tone-Loc. I enjoy this track as much as I’m sure you did at one point. Listen: Candyman – “Knockin’ Boots” (mp3) Purchase: Amazon

Adult.

October 2nd, 2005

Adult.”™s smartest move of 2005 was adding Samuel Consiglio to their line-up. Not that Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller needed help exactly. They did show both lyrical and musical growth between 2001″™s single collection “˜Resuscitation”™ and 2003″™s “˜Anxiety Always.”™ But 2005″™s “˜D.U.M.E. (Death Unto My Enemies)”™ ep did not prove to be a gigantic [...]

Nu Shooz

October 1st, 2005

Well this song fucking brings me back! That human voice sample is just out of control. These guys probably play weddings and concerts by the bay now. Oh and they’re obviously fucking white, look at their style, whoa! This track is fucking hot though. Listen: Nu Shooz “I Can’t Wait” (mp3) Purchase: Amazon
