Hardformat is rad album archive website that I came across from one of @Reserves twitter links. “It seems like everybody’s talking about the end of physical music media. Who knows whether they’re right or not, but Hard Format is a little place we’ve set up to celebrate our love of brilliant music-related design.” It seems [...]
XLR8R has some of the best podcasts going and they recently posted a good but short podcast with one of my favorite groups Junior Boys. Check the Junior Boys podcast here and the full XLR8R archive here.
The past few days, David Lang was Twittering about some “epic blog post” he was working on… I’m always stoked on anything David is up to, but I was expecting some exposé on a trials mountain bike rider or some future of communication on the Internet type of stuff… I was wrong! This past winter [...]
Just came across this site called We Are Hunted, which seems pretty interesting, and a potential way to find new music (you can listen to each one). Here is the gist of it straight from the site: “We Are Hunted is the Online Music Chart. We aggregate social networks, forums, music blogs, Torrents, P2P Networks [...]
A while back the band M83′s record label held a contest to create a video for their song “We Own The Sky” and I just came across the winning video on The Fader blog. The video is a visually captivating, motion heavy piece, that was was created by David Altobelli. You can check the video [...]

So, I can admit that my musical taste is all over the map. Just as an example, I’m listening to My Morning Jacket right now, but the day started out with The Dreams new album. I usually don’t listing to that much main stream hip-hop, especially not R&B, but I’ll have to blame my recent [...]
Smoovebert just sent this over and while we are on the topic of posting cleaver internet shit, I thought everyone would enjoy this. It’s a mash-up of youtube clips mixed together to create a whole album. I thought it was just one track, but no… an album. I tried to just listen to it in [...]
Greyboy is spinning live today and the whole Warchruch turntable crew should be showing up soon! Warchruch is just a big jam at Greyboys house where him and his friends all jump on turn tables and spin some rad music. “funky beats and breaks spanning all musical genres, but focusing on funk, soul, jazz, and [...]
Through a few message boards and some random clicking I just came across this rad video on, a site called Quality Control, that compiles sounds from the world to create music. I really love the concept and the video is quite fun.
This is too dope not to post. Imagine watching this when your computer is going slow, making those pixel ghost on top of the intentional ghosts…
There is a pretty good post on The Font Feed about the Grammy that was awarded to best packaging and music video. They give their two sense about the Metalica album that won for best packaging and put up a few of their favorite album covers from the past year. They also have some good [...]
There’s an interesting look at an interesting dude‘s interesting house on The Fader’s website. View it here.
The Fader just posted an interesting, yet not to long, conversation between The Faders deputy editor Eric Ducker and Eskay of Nah Right, discussing the lack of good hip-hop albums. I feel like there’s always talk of “the current state of hip-hop”, but I found this interesting because it seems like there is just a [...]

Out of all the end of the year roundups, The Fader has my favorite thing going on by far. I posted on their list last year and was super excited to see what they came up with this year. They always have the most random topics and I love how the numbers change… Like “Top [...]
Check the date on this NY Times article. Thanks David Lang. Read it here.
Andrew McMullen just posted a little holiday mix on his blog. This was his first attempt at putting tracks together and his song choices are dope! Andrew is always one of my go-to guys when it comes to getting new music. He has a great taste in music and a wide rage as well… “I [...]
Brain Park, one of the guys that posts on the Gnarwhale site, just posted this rad video/mp3 of a track he put together. He created the tracks in Ableton Live, then used an iPod touch to control it… The track is awesome and it’s always fun to see all the random stuff you can do [...]
