calvin harris, the girls video

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007

3Hive says - “What Calvin Harris has created is disco in his own image: bedroom producer of the YouTube generation, behind his Amiga computer, making beats & riffs like it was 1984, the year of his birth.” Check out the hilarious lyrics to Merry Making At My Place below.

black kids, a new band discovery

Monday, August 27th, 2007

“Black Kids are from Jacksonville, Florida, and play an energetic sort of punk-tinged dance rock. Think something like an ’80s synth-rock band with occasional doo-wop harmonies and wit to spare. They have their moody moments, but they’re too tongue-in-cheek to lump them with the mope-rock crowd.” So says the folks at Cable & Tweed.
I’m Not [...]

old time relijun getting the props

Friday, August 24th, 2007

Portland’s Old Time Relijun gets the props big time -
