ANTHONY VALADEZ – “Under Water (feat. MAR)” May 7, 2012
NAS – “Daughters” April 26, 2012
Nas just released his second single “Daughters” from his upcoming album, Life Is Good. In today’s world of tired hip hop, Nas is pure coffee. His lyrical genius and pitch-perfect delivery are unmatched. ”Daughters” is a refreshing track for a genre that is over-saturated with mediocrity. Providing production, the consistently on-point NO-ID is as great as [...] Read More…
FATHER JOHN MISTY – “Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings” April 23, 2012
J. Tillman, the former drummer for Fleet Foxes, is going by Father John Misty for his upcoming album, Fear Fun. KCRW has been playing “Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings” pretty consistently, and I still can’t get enough. “Jesus Christ, girl…” Fear Fun (Sub Pop, May 2012) Read More…
JACK WHITE – “Love Interruption” March 21, 2012
Jack White knows tone. He knows how to get the perfect sound from an instrument. He consistently delivers a bluesy style that is dirty and gritty yet subtle and beautiful, all at the same time. His new single, “Love Interruption” is a perfect example of the dynamic sound of Jack White- cool, visceral, authentic rock. [...] Read More…
LANA DEL REY – “Blue Jeans (RAC Mix)” March 20, 2012
Lana Del Rey’s major label debut was a big hit but I didn’t get too into it. I will admit that Born To Die is a very interesting album and definitely worth a listen. Personally, I’m just not that crazy about Lana Del Rey’s sound. I am, however, crazy about this RAC remix of “Blue [...] Read More…
ALUNAGEORGE – “You Know You Like It” March 12, 2012
Loving this track from AlunaGeorge. “You Know You Like It” is electro-soul at it’s finest, fitting right in with Little Dragon, Quadron, King, and Georgia Anne Muldrow among others. You Know You Like It – EP (Super, August 2011) Read More…
CARLOS SERRANO – “Something About The Fire (ADELE vs DAFT PUNK)” March 4, 2012

BAND OF SKULLS – “Sweet Sour” March 2, 2012
Band of Skulls have perfected an edgy, aggressive sound that really strikes a chord with me. ”Sweet Sour” is the title and lead track off their new album which was released less than a month ago. This song has been stuck in my head since I first heard it and I love it. These guys [...] Read More…
JUSTICE – “On’n'On (Ruined by RICK RUBIN)” February 23, 2012
Rick Rubin is one of the most diverse and accomplished producers in music. He’s got an incredible ear, unique style, and wide-ranging taste which spans across a variety of genres. Rubin’s remix of Justice’s “On’n’On” shows just how natural it is for the prolific producer to adapt his sound to fit any genre, specifically with [...] Read More…
PRINCETON – Remembrance of Things to Come February 14, 2012
Remembrance of Things to Come, the new album from LA-based band Princeton will be released on February 21st. Princeton have perfected their style- a blend of indie-pop and classical minimalism- giving the album a mature, fluid feel. It’s a fantastic listen from beginning to end. Tour dates: Feb 22 – San Francisco, CA – Independent [...] Read More…
