The Beast

Here is Stephen Coffman's new hiphop/jazz group.

The Beast

Give them a listen they are really good.

Modern Guilt

The new Beck CD (Modern Guilt) is really really good.

It might be as good as Odelay.

Looks like Danger Mouse helped co-produce it.

Pandora

Reggie Watts

music and comedy, not exceptionally funny but it would be an interesting show.

Free (Streaming) Music

http://songza.com/

You can type in the song or artist you want to listen to....and then you can. I think it is legal because it is offshore and there is no downloading you are just listening to songs from the website.

P.S.- I am going to the Citizen Cope concert tonight and i found an awesome cover he did of "Karma Police" you should listen to it (just type in Citizen Cope at the above website). Also, he is going to be at the Cat's Cradle this tuesday and i bet it would be an awesome live show.

Vampire Weekend

http://www.vampireweekend.com/

Good band. Indie rock with Afro-pop beats.

almost forgot about this

best music video ever

Nerds are cool

The Cal band

Mark Ronson remix of Bob Dylan

video/song

Two of my favorites combined

cool way to send a message (and nice viral advertising too).......p.s. I didn't make this one.

Dylan and Heels

Where I find my weird music

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/

Well, at least some of my weird music. They review all genres of music but there is a definite lean towards the Indie/Emo scene.

They are pretty good for the most part but they have the typical Indie/Emo arrogance that is noticeable every now and then in their reviews. For those of you who have talked to someone who is (a little too) into Indi/Emo knows exactly what I am talking about.

Wale

If you want to download Wale's 100 Miles and Running Mixtape.

It is free and legal.

Hip-hop in case you forgot.

New way to get free music

Hippity Hop

In case someone wants to listen to some good (not mainstream yet) hip-hop, this guy Wale is pretty god.

White Stripes

The White Stripes have a new single out "Icky Thump."

Rock

The Gossip - Standing in the Way of Control

I really like this group. The lead singer is this girl who actually makes you feel it when she sings. She just lets loose and sings like the singers from the Motown era, except now it is rock. Really really really good, I very highly recommend them.

Teddybears

"They began as Skull, a grindcore group"
Swedish rock band in 1991

What is not to like...

Since then they have started experimenting more with electronica. As a result I really like their new sound. I confess that I have always had a place in my heart for shameless pop, and since they are not mainstream I do not mind blasting them with the windows down. I would categorize their music as electropop/dreampop. If you like The Dandy Warhols (The Monkey House - top 5 albums ever) or The Flaming Lips, you might like these guys. It is a really good mix of rock, pop, some reggae, and electronica.

Their latest album is Soft Machine, and I highly recommend you buy it and listen to it all the way through...all their songs are good but their songs Punkrocker (ft. Iggy Pop), Are You Feelin' It (ft. Elephant Man), and Cobrastyle (ft. Mad Cobra) are really good.








Other electronica-ish groups you might want to give a try:
Hot Chip - The Warning
Girl Talk - Unstoppable (this group is crazy, they take top 20 songs and mix them all together into this frenzied mix that sounds like 3 records are skipping, or like you are turning the dial on your radio really fast. I am not sure how much I like them, but I just assume I don't understand good music and it is the modern version of Free Jazz)

Tom Waits

I'm curious if any of you listen/have listened to him. If so, thoughts? If not, die.
