So last night, I added a bunch of songs to the old MP3 player, but a few didn't get added for some reason, so I decided to "Rebuild" my database. Seemed a harmless thing, but it turns out it wiped out the new playlists I had created. Sooooo... this morning I tossed together a new playlist of the 20 songs that were successfully added last night, and they are all relatively new releases - I think and all new to me.
Noisetrade (which you really have to check out if you are a band or a fan of music... to be honest, I'm not sure how it works, but it seems to be a great way to connect great music to music fans... anyway, they aren't paying me, so....) recently offered up a couple of Delta Spirits' EPs, and our first song is a track from that one called Gimme Some Motivation - which rocks out in a modern way.
Friends of the blog - Makar are back (two days in a row) with a another song from their Funeral Genius album - this one is called In the Know.
The Bang Bang Boogaloo compilation Beyond Beyond is Beyond is available today for general distribution. It contains a butt load of diverse tracks all generally falling under the psychedelic category. This one features groovy, echoey vocals, fuzzy but strong guitars and a hand clapping beat. It sounds like it could come from the '60s, but it doesn't sound dated. This one is by a Detroit band called Outrageous Cherry and is called Unbalanced in the City.
My good friend Hayden Coleman just released a album (available on Bandcamp) of beats from 2007. The album is called From '07: The Beat Tape - H.C. is a connoisseur of hip hop and he knows his stuff. That much is evident in this beat called Bossa Nova Nuestra. Rumor has it, he makes a pretty good milkshake, too.
Finally, Charles Manson stole this song from the Beatles, U2 stole it back and now The Shake have taken it out on extended loan. Helter Skelter here is a live cut recorded live at Maxwell's. ===========================================================================
