i don't know what's happening to me.  more and more, i find myself liking unexpected things.  like, i don't know...those little cheese-flavored chocolates from the asian grocery.  and phantogram:



good, right?  yet another reason sasquatch is gonna rule.

also, truman peyote are from boston.  i think they sound like a barebones animal collective, in a really really good way:




and why did no one ever tell me about jaylib???

deadbeat winter

thursday at great scott:


Neon Indian - Deadbeat Summer from LaundroMatinee on Vimeo.

are we in?  probably depends on how court goes that morning...

(i'm the good guy)

oh, and also on whether or not i can get over how annoying vega was.

playin' yourself like accordion

a new mix, yo.

i just got back from vegas, and somehow failed to get rich OR married.  i can't help but think it would've been different if sinatra was still around.

anyway, this mix is loosely vegas-inspired.  start at sinatra, end in hell, all haze and bleeding red lights in between.
