this song post is for my much missed roomie ms. leveroni :)
heard about this chick after she did a sick cover of arcade fire's "suburbs" so i had to do a little more investigating on mr little jeans aka monica birkenes
fairly sure i play this song about 5 times before i go to bed. i want to use the word sensual, but i use that word too much. trust me, you'll definitely want to get naked to this song, but in the most beautiful way ever.
i've had this gem locked away for too long. thanks to the handy shuffle-- we meet again. such a gorgeous cover of drake's "take care" by florence + the machine. normally not a huge fan of them, but this is a beauty.
also, gov ball lineup is up: http://governorsballmusicfestival.com/lineup/artists/
everyone needs to put down what they're doing, listen to this san fran dude, and start boogyin'. i absolutely did just say boogyin' and that may or may not be how to spell it. you get the point. as much as i love a solid rebeat (a new term i dubbed for remix), his foot-thumping originals are where it's at.
“…the creation of this track and video is also an artistic explanation as to why I chose the name “Pretty Lights” for my musical project. It embodies the essence of the artistic eye and the idea that almost any moment, anywhere, can be a moment of inspiration and beauty.”
new year's resolution? post more songs. seriously slackin' but i pinky swear i'll be better! check these swedies out-- they have the foster the peeps/phoenix vibe which has been missing in my playlist recently. it's the perfect amount pep to my step in the morning. yeah, i said that.
happy new year, folks! while ringing in the new year a la avicii (note to self: never try and spend NYE with 6,000 people it's never any fun) and looking forward to the 20-dozen... there's just one last thing that will complete one of the best years that was 2011. i've been waiting for a really long time for this. and it. is. worth it. the zeitgeist 2011 is bringing one mixtape a day (hopefully til the end of time!) of the best songs/artists/albums of 2011. dream come true? i think so. keep going to hypem.com and take a gander. also, add me to your list so you can start listening to the tunes i've been heartin': http://hypem.com/zilnil
hi friends! friday night will go down as one of the best shows. ever. swedish house mafia took stage at the iconic madison square garden-- sold out in less than 10 minutes, whaaaa?
they played for 2 hours, breaking the "msg rule". but absolutely SO worth it.
watch the whole set live below! quickly before they take it down!
i've been diggin these guys called strange talk for a while now. they have the vibe of their fellow aussies cutcopy, no?... this song is definitely an alternative to what they normally have out, but still gets the bloods flowin and the dancefloor packed. maybe not dancefloor, maybe just an apartment party?
"your sexual lifestyle/ another name on the wall/ another someone to call"
can't stop, won't stop playing this song. goldroom reminds me of the magician... which isn't surprising that this song made its way into the new magic tape SEVENTEEN. listen here!
