Yeasayer – O.N.E. (Video)

Yeasayer “ONE” By: Radical Friend from ODDBLOOD on Vimeo.

Man I am on a roll with Vimeo lately. Enjoy this totally rad video from Yeasayer for their song “O.N.E.”. Neon colors, lasers, coordinated dance moves… love it.

PS: Shout out to MFR for putting this up.

Games – Everything is Working & Party Planet

To be perfectly honest, I do not really know much about Games. I know they are from Brooklyn and have released a few mixtapes via their blog. They have that great chillwave (ugh hate that word, it sounds like some sort of designer drug) sound. I scored these two tracks and I am pretty sure they are demos so… hopefully more tracks will be released very soon. Enjoy!

PS: Rent War Games!

Phil Lynott – Yellow Pearl

I went with some buddies to a huge vinyl/record fair at the Black Cat here in DC. Very crowded but very worth it. Geologist of Animal Collective DJed part of the event and he was playing some great stuff and several tracks caught my ear. So much so that I went and bothered him for a few moments to try and get the details of his playlist. He was more then happy to share and one of my favorite takeaways was this song from Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy. Yeah… what??? The track is off his solo record Solo in Soho. Enjoy!

The Cars – “Heartbeat City” & “Drive” Live Aid 1985

I’ve been a big fan of The Cars as far back as I can remember. I’ve been watching a lot of their older live performances lately, and stumbled across a handful of videos from their ‘85 performance @ JFK Stadium for the first of many Live Aid concert series. The Cars had (and still have) such a huge influence on new wave & electronic music. Here are my two favorites from the performance, “Heartbeat City” & “Drive.” Hope you enjoy ‘em!

There is a certain something you feel when you listen to Futurecop!. Whether you are listening to their EP The Unicorn and the Lost City Alvograth or one of their many remixes or watching one of their great 80’s mashup videos there is a nostalgic glee that consumes you. Enjoy the video for “Karate Kids” below and also one of my favorites from their EP, “NASA”. I will be posting remixes of the group later so stay tuned. Enjoy!
