Picked this new War On Drugs EP on vinyl a little bit ago.
Love their sound.Reminds me of Arcade Fire/Bruce Springsteen/driving the NJ turnpike.
Perfect for road trips. Which I will be taking soon.

Riding on the freak train, where there's a whole new story there.

I already dug The War On Drugs and now completely love the new Kurt Vile solo album, "Childish Prodigy", that's about to come out as well.
This track is perfect for riding the subway.
Just put on your headphones, crank it up and people watch.

I wonder, wonder I do.

Going to see an awesome show at the Bowery Ballroom tonight.
The War On Drugs are opening up for Rodriguez.
And if it stays warm this evening, I'll be riding my bike to it.
Summer is getting closer every day.

A little about this blog: The idea when I decided to start up this blog came simply from my all-consuming love of music and the desire to share it friends and other fans of music. Though I may post new music here, my intention isn't to simply participate in an echo chamber of music or aggregation, but rather to come at it with a strong point of view about music - my view: what is exciting to me, what I am obsessing about, what I unearth, discover or rediscover. Sometimes it is even just a way for me to document my life - to remember what a day consisted of, what I thought about, who and what I saw, how I was feeling. At the very least, I hope I might turn you onto something new, old, inspiring. And please share back with me anytime. A little about me: I am a music supervisor, DJ, director, musician, filmmaker, radio host, book publisher, independent record label owner, writer, journalist, artist, curator, futurist, photographer & producer. After living in Portland, Oregon where I worked as a Music Supervisor/Producer at Wieden + Kennedy for over 8½ years, I made the move to New York City in February 2009, where I was the Executive Music Producer at Young & Rubicam for nearly two years, before I moved again to Chicago to become the Executive Producer of Music & Creative Integration at DDB, where I am now currently working. Though my background and current status is truly rooted as an independent artist, I’ve now spent over 11½ years in the advertising industry working with such clients as Nike, Coke, Honda, Nokia, Target, ESPN, Bacardi, Budweiser, McDonald's, Gatorade, Land Rover, NASCAR, Diet Coke, NHL, Starbucks, LG, MTV, VH1, State Farm, Oreo, EA Games, Honda, Sharp, Amazon, PowerAde, Avon, Orange, Vodaphone, REI, Campbell’s, Colgate, Office Depot, Fisher Price, UPS, Bayer, Dell, etc. In the past, I have been a music supervisor on such projects as Nike SB’s first-ever skateboard movie, Nothing But The Truth, the high school football documentary TV series for Cellular South, Head To Head, the indie film, The Auteur, the surf movie, Chasing Waves and the feature-length documentaries Helvetica and its’ follow-up, Objectified. I have also directed music videos for M. Ward, Cursive and Chin Up Chin Up, as well as TV commercials for Nike. With my bands and as a DJ, I have performed nationally and internationally, including San Francisco’s MOMA, Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art, PICA’s TBA Festival 2004 & 2005, CMJ Festival 2008, Flux Event at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, MusicfestNW, Paris’ radio station, Radio Nova, ‘boards Awards 2009 and Barcelona’s electronic music festival, Sonar.
