Beck is back with Dreams; a single from his untitled and unreleased album. Dreams is a solid entry to the Summer Jam…every Summer one song soundtracks the entire season.
A few listens inspired the following stream of consciousnesses…
We’ve all been there, slapping, slamming, cursing our tech. And the results…are often effective. Take that IT department. Duncan Robson plundered tv shows and movies to find dozens of effective tech slaps, cuffs, beats all tightly edited into the hypnotic Percussive Maintenance. Outstanding! Special bonus points for including Small Wonder, crazy deep reference. Well played…

A permanent sucker for that 70s soul sound…that Mark Ronson type production. With Problems Problems Frankie delivers an utterly intoxicating ditty…just push play, enjoy and dance, dance, dance!
And to think all this time most movies were about characters just falling in love. Turns out they’re often jumping, leaping off buildings, falling, escaping and more. Gravity shows up in the movies more often that we realize. All the classic leaps are here: Die Hard (YES GUY!), Aliens, Verigo…Iron Man and more. Enjoy this, I found the video deeply hypnotic.

Metric has returned with 2 new singles and album news! High fives and fist bumps.
But first this joke:
Q: What do Martians who use the Metric System say?
A: Take me to your Liter!
Awful, just awful. I ask for your forgiveness.
Now the good news:
Metric’s LP Pagans in Vegas arrives on September 18.
Album preorders include a curious time capsule package and a cassette version of The Shade. Fun, yo.

One of the lovely ladies from Audio Blood turned me onto this outstanding song…that voice, that banjo and those claps: I dunno how but this works!
As children our journey imitates human evolution: we start out drawing on walls. It’s one of our first artistic risks crushed by an ardent no. If we can successfully maintain our Artistic impulses through the limited faculties of education and many more nos we arrive to eventually professionally begin…writing on walls. Only this time wall…

I met this band at a CMW BBQ: rather fittingly with a dancey groove that’s got more pep than an entire rally, the smooth Total Blender blending of a male voice with a female voice and sadness and sorrow that this delightful tune is shorter than Gary Coleman (too soon?).
