Wu Lyf:

Friday, July 30th, 2010

spitting it concrete like the golden sun god WU LYF from LYF on Vimeo.

defiantly a favorite of mine, with little to no knowledge about the band. They have managed to keep almost everything about them a secret (they’re from the UK and have released 50 copies of a porcelain 7″). I Got Dem Wu Wu Busted Teef Spitting It Concrete Like The Golden Sun God (wow) takes up where the last couple songs I heard left off, with a style unto their own..”heavy pop”. The video about has some scary imagery but don’t turn away too soon, it’s well worth it. If you’r like me and cant get enough of this soulful indie goodness check them out on their very… interesting website here. For now I’ll just watch this video on repeat and try not to cringe.

Don't look for too long

Very, very exciting stuff coming from Chicago. Information is thin and far between, but for now we have three absolutely fantastic tracks to enjoy. I highly doubt this will be the last we hear about them.

Sunsquints – Machu Picchu
Sunsquints – Basque
Sunsquints – Dakar Doldrums

Culte Du Cargo

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

A great local band that was around a couple of years ago. I just rediscovered it while perusing my itunes library. I don’t really know what’s going on with them lately, but here’s a couple of songs that are a little bit old and a lot bit synth-tastic.

Where did you guys go anyway? Are you still a band?

Ms. Poppin – Culte Du Cargo

One Way – Culte Du Cargo

El Guincho Piratas de Sudamérica, Vol. 1:

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

covered this a while back, and now it’s finally out. blissed out spanish classics as interpreted by El Guincho. As a prude west coaster this would seem to sum up an ethnic styling pretty well. Mariachi band buys a lap top, smokes weed, chills out and everyones happy. A wonderful little romp through Spain’s sandy beaches complete with backing female accompaniment and the perfect amount of that mexi-vibe to make you feel like you’ve transported yourself to another continent without leaving the comfort of your headphones.

El Guincho – Cuerpo Sin Alma

El Guincho – Mientes

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

Women – Eyesore

slow down Big Boi:

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

this is unreal, for real. Big Boi drops some super catchy rhymes over one of the better beats I’ve heard in years. A video including Tron ladies, triangles, plastic beer cup walls and puppets. What’s not to love about this!? I think everyone needs to get Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico Dusty, it’s really worth it. Good luck with getting this one out of your head…
