[...] Many months later and the P-bomb dropped was dropped. Things were never the same. I got a hold of their album. it did not have the immediate impace their live show did…i was unimpressed and mildly annoyed. Around the same time i started hearing a song on college radio called Able by another Brooklyn band called The National. I checked out the rest of their album, and i took to it immediately. I then began to read about a girl named Leslie Feist and i checked out her album. The first two songs and I could not stop thinking about how I had not heard of something so gorgeous before. It might have been because the album had not been officially released yet. how i got a copy i’ll never know. anyway, this post isnt about feist, because this one was. [...]

Rivers,

Completely agreed. That was a fun night at the Casbah. You only owe me hugs. First track is amazing. Especially if you’ve ever forgotten an ex-girlfriend’s name, which I of course have.

EMC,

This year’s quasimoto just didn’t do it for me. Maybe I need to start smoking weed again.

I’m with Oso on this, that Set Yourself on Fire is my favorite album this year. Although, E’s new record, Blinking Lights & Other Revelations is right up there too. Or Quasimoto’s record, and I even dig that new Dizzie Rascal (although, not entirely)…I just wished I had better Latin alternative selection…

oops…I meant the title track, “Set yourself on Fire” is my fave. I love those first few lines of that track.

Oso & EMC,
Yeah, both “Set Yourself on Fire” & “Heart” are tremendous.
‘Your ex-lover is dead’ is my fave track off the latest Stars. One fo the best show’s that we rocked to Oso…the Casbah never dissapoints, especially when you are buying me drinks. I think I still owe you from that night. But now’s not a good time to hit me up. Damn, I love talking about my monetary problems in comments. I dig The Microphones too EMC.

Revaz, hey, if you dig Mirah, you should check out Wolf Colonel or Jason Anderson. That dude’s music rocks, or The Microphones, The Blow, and Mirah’s new record is good. If I continue sharing my music collection, you’ll be hearing most of these musicans too.

Os, Set Yourself on Fire is fucking awesome. I suggest you hear their last record, Heart. I was very close to adding a track on my new mix but I’m restricted with a busted iBook.

I’m itching to share some of my hip-hop, latin alternative, and maybe weirder pop stuff. My girlfriend asked me the other day, “Hey, where’s Fantastic Plastic Machine? Pizzacato Five?”

shame, shame.

I’m diggin it aight….but I like her better along side Kings of Convenience’s “Riot on an Empty Street” – which for the record, hasn’t gotten old since I bought it last summer. Yes, I purchased it for around 15 odd dollars at a store Oso. I can’t help supporting the industry. And that’s why I only have fifty dollars in my account. But only after borrowing some from my mama.
Anyway…feist. About 3 years ago, I didn’t have any love for female vocalists… it’s not that I didn’t try, but I just wasn’t feeling them. But now I got some Frou Frou, Mirah, Stars, and others and I’m giving them mad love.

Fuck, dude, you’re complaining about Nic Harcourt? Count your blessing M, ’cause at least you don’t have the fucking annoying jerk that is John Aielli–he’s the morning music show guy in Austin’s KUT radio. His show Eklecticos, which is long overdue for a meteor to land at the KUT studios is the worst music show. But for some reason, people still fucking listen to his tripe. Seriously, man, how many times can I stand listening to five different covers of a Radiohead song?! I was already falling asleep during Phillip Glass’ cover when he goes off about music he doesn’t even know about. At least Harcourt knows his music, Aielli doesn’t know shit that when he has good artists in the studio, he alienates them by yappin’ about himself. Give me Harcourt any day. By the way, thanks for Feist, I’ll look her up. Bee Gees are great man.
