Making Me Nervous by Brad Sucks

Even though this track is 11 years old, I don't think enough people are aware of the fabulousness that is Brad Sucks (aka Brad Turcotte) from Ottawa, Ontario. Therefore, I present to you the 1st track ever from the 1st Brad Sucks album ever entitled I Don't Know What I'm Doing which was released independently & for FREE in mp3 format only (at the time of the original release) on December 19th 2003.

Tomorrow's Modern Boxes by Thom Yorke - Brand NEW!!!

Thom Yorke has done it again...surprising his fans & the music world this morning by suddenly releasing his new, 8-track album Tomorrow's Modern Boxes initially via BitTorrent for only $6! Check out the new album in its entirety BELOW! Thom also released a video for the 1st twitchy, tweaked-out single A Brain In A BottleThom may not be the most handsome man but he is certainly 1 of the most talented & original artists of our time. His music isn't everyone's cup of tea but I doubt he cares ;)

My Lady Got Two Men by Atmosphere

Atmosphere is, by far, my favorite current hip hop group. Slug & Ant continue to impress album after album & live show after live show. 

Their latest (& 8TH!!!) studio album Southsiders was released a few months ago but, just this morning, Rhymesayers Entertainment dropped the new, funky, silly, official video for the track My Lady Got Two Men

So, now, it's ATMOSPHERE ALL DAY...Modern Man's Hustle baby ;)


My lady got two men
One's a stranger and the other's a friend
She keeps us both cause she needs us
Zig-zag back and forth in between us
My lady got two lovers
One for the funk and the other for the comfort
I'm trying to understand
But I gotta figure out which one I am

No Rain by Blind Melon - PUMPKIN REMIX

I think I like this remix of Blind Melon's No Rain better than the original!! It definitely gives me a newfound appreciation for this classic track!

Portugal. The Man & Grouplove @ The Greek Theatre - 8/15/14

Because I've been beyond busy the past month quitting my job & trying to wrap everything up after 6 years at the same company (my last day is Friday & I couldn't be more excited!!!!), I've fallen SUPER behind on my blog posts :( Sorry guys!!! 

And, because I'm still at work at almost 10pm on a Wednesday, I only have time to say...Portgual. The Man & Grouplove DESTROYED the Greek Theatre last month!! Both bands get better & better each time they perform & getting to see them at my favorite outdoor venue in LA the Friday after Outside Lands was an extra special treat!
