The Life and Times and Amazing Adventures of DJ Bunny Ears.

So my external drive with all my music on it died this weekend and caused a big mess.
Smartly, I keep a back-up and for the most part came out unscathed.
While rebuilding my iTunes' playlists, I came across this Via Tania song, which I don't really know well and it just caught my ear.
Now I want it to catch yours.

Dedicated to my friend, Hawthorne, whom I dearly miss.

I was out of town all last week, hanging around Chicago (and then Milwaukee)during the Adweek/Billboard Music & Advertising conference,so I didn't have a chance to post anything, but now I will.

This is one my favorite tracks from Peter Wolf Crier from his album "Inter-Be".
And even though it's been out for a little while, I'm just finally truly appreciating it.
The whole thing is solid.
Enjoy.

Me, right there, with all the other tired horses.

Thanks Bailey, for the lovely banner awaiting me this morning.
You're the best.

Song of the day from album of the week.
Kinda Animal Collective meets The Flaming Lips, esque-ish.
Dig it.

Call it Drag, Witch House, Haunted House, what-you-will, etc. (http://pitchfork.com/features/articles/7806-ghosts-in-the-machine/),
but no matter what, I'm really digging what these kids are up to.
My friend Max turned me onto Blackbird Blackbird sometime ago and now I'm turning you on to it.

Also, there's more free tracks from the band here:

I don't know much about Eamon McGrath yet, but that doesn't stop his album from kicking my butt.
Punk-blues-folk-rock?
Certainly.
Love its' rawness.
Have a listen to the first track:

I've been listening to the promo of Twin Shadow's upcoming album "Forget" on Terrible Records, pretty much non-stop.
Check out this jam.

Also, looks like you can listen to the whole album here:

Song of the day from my favorite (mini) album of the week.
Due out on Frenchkiss in the early fall.

Also, here's what our little spread from an impromptu party on a Friday afternoon for a hip bachelor on a rooftop of a music studio in Soho looks like.
Check out the tiny cassette player by the buns. It rocked out a serious booty mix.

Back in NYC from the Bahamas and though I'm getting a little butt kicking from work, trying my best to retain some of that sunny mellow vibe.
Fortunately the album "Next Stop...Soweto Vol.3" is really helping with that.
So super amazingly good. Pick it up.
