Police Academy 6 ft unouomedude mp3


The assist goes to ymitroy on this one. I'd expect nothing less from the master himself unouomedude, but this song has put Police Academy 6 on my radar too. Most excellent song.

Julian Lynch mp3



I had honestly never heard of Julian Lynch until yesterday. This sweet picture of him & a dog, and listening to this song changed all that. Epically good music. Thank You Altered Zones for turning me onto him.

Julian Lynch- Terra

New Album Terra comes out April 26th on Underwater Peoples

Rainbow Arabia mp3




This was already an awesome song, and this alternate, extended version just makes it better. Great John Hughes movie feel to it. I am also in love with this artwork.

Star Slinger Mornin' Video

Super-Chill Video. I really like it. I get the same amount of joy from this video as from the song, which is saying something. This song is sick as.

My Two Favorite Music Videos Of All-Time

Now I'm just on a roll with music videos. Thought I'd share two of my favorites I've seen in recent history

So insanely good. After you watch, you don't even remember what the song sounded like because you were so enthralled with the video



I'll just put a link to this video, technically NSFW, but its not really that bad. I'm pretty sure this video is just based on some dream El Guincho had one night.

Watch El Guincho Here

The Avalanches- Frontier Therapist Video

This video is retro-bizarre in a way that could only happen in the early 2000's

Thank You YmiTroy

Blouse "Into Black" mp3




This song really gave me chills. The little chorus Blouse throws in just makes me melt. Its even better when watching the music video with a couple doing a completely primal dance with fireworks going off. Fireworks are one of my favorite things. They are completely pointless and overpriced, but watching them on the Fourth of July each year is my favorite, most reflexive time of the year. That is how this song makes me feel.

Toro y Moi FACT Mix + "New Beat" Video






Toro Y Moi has put together a nice little mix for the folks over at Fact Magazine. Good retro funk feel to most of it. Great to put on while pounding through some studying/background music when throwing a kick back.

...Also the Official Video For "New Beat", very typically Chaz, which I absolutely love

Star Slinger Does Elizabeth Fraser Live

Star Slinger consistently kills it, especially live from comic book stores. I like the clerk in the background, just acting like Star Slinger isn't putting on a live show right in the middle of his store.

Puro Instinct




I realize this is old, but it still needs to be shared because it's awesome, and features Ariel Pink. Two things that normally go hand and hand, especially when Ariel Pink acts like this.

Puro Instinct :: Stilyagi (feat. Ariel Pink)

Range Rover mp3


Not all together sure what I think about this song. The whole time I wanted less fuzz, but when the song ended, I was fulfilled. I think Pigeon Post put it best "recorded on an broken Alba walkman inside a disused washing machine". It will be exciting to hear what these guys continue to put out. Support these San Diego kids & Check out their Bandcamp.

Range Rover- There's Nothing for me Here

New James Pants mp3



James Pants has a good thing going. We know that. This track is like fuzzy coconut lounge music that devolves into a hyper-drive motor start-up, then simmers back down to a silky smooth, albeit fuzzy lounge song.
