Have you ever walked the streets of London. On a day when it hasn’t quite rained, but it sure looks like it will. Up ahead in the sky there is a wash of light grey cloud. Behind you go the rows of red brick brownstones, corner pubs, cobblers and candy shoppes. And you walk and […]

Does anybody wonder what Pacey from Dawson’s Creek it up to now? He’s singing country ballads that stick nicely to a production formula that asks you to listen straightly, and evenly, to passive lyrics about sitting down and having a beer with that long-haired figure, the most famous of them all – Jesus. I bet […]
Totally need to add this to the fall feelings post… Here’s the sweet live Love & Feeling from the talented Chet Faker…. They LOOK like fall. Nice instrumentation. Drums!
The Grammy’s were good enough to beat the best dreams about the Grammys this year (Rihanna *amazi*) – can’t wait now for the Juno’s where some Canadian musical talent is recognized, like Kathleen Edwards. Below:
It’s flu season – so, a topical one! The Do singer Olivia Merilahti is known for literal and morbid thoughts sung through helpless yet defiant-toddleresque vocals. Angelic, displeased but most usually stuck. The songs composed with partner Dan Levy ‘do’ tend to lean towards their Paris roots – pouty – with a heavy spattering of ’60’s tiki style […]

Moon suits, Emily Hainesesque vocals, many a “dark-end of the road” now “what lies ahead” a lyric: Computer Magic. Solo Project of Danielle Johnston – 21 year old blogger / dj. She also has a song called “Victory Gin!”
I can’t wait until this guy comes out with his next single: Pizza Ain’t My Veggie, Baby. Everything gets better through music, especially when the lyrics are directed at the general US government. Everyone can relate to that, not just Occupy Wall Streeters: you fuck with my money, and you’ll be sorry! Is their vision […]
Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs – this video came out last year; I have seen the TEED name around town, but it wasn’t until seeing an interview with Orlando Dinosaur himself, that I realized what a genius at dance tracks he really is. Self-proclaimed “Not a Dinosaur Nerd,” rather just a producer who ended up dressing […]
