The Lovely Feathers: File this somewhere between Queen and Sparks. Canadian act, The Lovely Feathers, brings us some out of control indie, post-punk pop that just seems too good to be true. This is the kind of quirky, weird music that keeps me going. Try not to take a band like this too serious. It’s [...]

I totally thought I posted this like a month ago. But I guess not? Here you go. This kind of starts out like that remix of Britney Spears’ “Stronger” — don’t even pretend like you don’t know what I’m talking about. But this turns into a nice little electro-house mix of an electro-rock track. The [...]

I have to admit this: When this album arrived in the mail, I was super excited because I initially thought it was a new Figurine album that I didn’t know about. I popped it into my car stereo and was totally taken off guard. Because it was of course Figurines and not Figurine. But what [...]

Check out Codebreaker’s fresh video for “What Is This Earth Love?”

Everyones favorite robot, My Robot Friend, is back with a new single off his soon-to-be-released sophmore album, 0. “23 Minutes In Brussels” is a cover of the Luna song, and the single sports a remix by Mr. Tommie Sunshine. The tune is in the same vein as My Robot Friend’s earlier work. He creates a [...]

Codec & Flexor’s “Time Has Changed” managed to turn some heads in 2002, but it never really translated well to album. They were kind of lost in the great electroclash shuffle of 2003 — like five minutes too late to cash in on the hype. Now that the dust has settled, the duo’s second effort, [...]

This is a pretty sweet deal. Insound is having a 98 cent shipping sale… 98 cents on all domestic shipping on products in their warehouse. Stock up!

I know, it’s Friday night and you need a record to get your dance on with. Cajuan comes to us from Tiefschwarz’s Fine records. More importantly though, Cajuan’s 12″ is backed with a Digitalism remix. Shit, you can’t go wrong with Digitalism these days. Digitalism is like Soulwax for 2006. Like totally. Their remixes are [...]

Leander is a cure for winter. With “Idaho”, German brother’s Leander create a sensitive, start/stop track that basically summarizes the way I have felt the past few months. I don’t know. This song really just feels like winter. Like how winter is stripped away… to make room for something new. I’m being kind of ambiguous [...]

Miss Prissy, Misshapes, Coachella. All Madonna needs now is a Diplo mix… ah. Shit… too late. Yousendit: Madonna – “Hung Up” (Diplo Mix) (via Clitspit)

The best part about Youtube is the instant access to all those classic 80s videos you kind of forgot about… How awesome was this video? I was always more of a fan of Part II when they were dancing on the ship with the pirates. Still hot. More Cyndi Lauper videos

Ok, I know Erlend Øye is hardly an insider tip. But. If I had to pick one favorite song of all time, it would be Erlend Øye’s “The Black Keys Work.” I have listened to this song at least a billion times, and it is still a favorite. Hands down. The sensitivity of his voice [...]

Ok, I know Jason Schwartzman has his own band, but does that one guy (second from right) look like Jason Schwartzman? No? Ok so maybe it’s just the photo. Whatever, Islands are about a million times better than Phantom Planet, and that is all that matters. Why does it feel like Friday, and it’s only [...]
