Starving for...

starving for
love

conversation

starving for

starving alone
when we should
be starving together

we're starving for you
and this thing we're after
starving for
more of the
love and laughter

Bushwick Essentials: Midlake

Bushwick Essentials:
Midlake

We've been in love with this band for quite sometime. Recently our love turned into
obsession when the track "Young Bride" was played at a recent party. The vocals
sound like Paul Mccartney fresh from a Rubber Soul session, aka good Mccartney.

This song has 104 play counts in the past 10 days. Essential indeed.

Midlake - "Young Bride" MP3
from 2006's beautiful The Trials of Van Occupanther LP

Bushwick Essentials: No Age


Bushwick Essentials:

No Age
Weirdo Rippers

1. Every Artist Needs a Tragedy
2. Boy Void
3. I Wanna Sleep
4. "My Life's Alright Without You" MP3
5.
"Everybody's Down" MP3
6. Sun Spots
7. Loosen This Job
8.
"Neck Escaper" MP3

9. Dead Plane
10. Semi-Sorted
11. Escarpment

Yesterday was a great case for why Hype Machine is a great tool for labels and music fans alike. I was turned onto a new record called Weirdo Rippers through one song on the Top 50 at Hype. From that I ended up purchasing an entire record via Itunes. Now No Age has a new fan, and hopefully we can turn someone onto them from this post.

The band is part punk rock, part flaming lips experimentation, 1/3 Wire. Raw repetitive guitar puts you in a trance as sounds from outer space float by. We are so hooked, and so will you...

Buy Weirdo Rippers
here or on Itunes.

Out on an Island




Sometimes we need to
put back some sense in it all.

Now we know...

what life is like,
for dreamers like you and me.


Now I'm out on an Island...

and you are nowhere to be seen.


I Hope things become clear again.

I'm ready.
