I've got a feeling and the feeling is new/you.

The Packers won Sunday and are heading to the Superbowl. So I think it's time for some happy/celebratory music and the upcoming Go! Team album is doing just the trick.
It's a really fun mix of vintage Go! Team updated with a tad Belle & Sebastian/Camera Obscura and a wee bit of the Avalanches.
The whole album is really solid, super catchy and upbeat.
Check out this track that's sure to be a hit single.

If I held my breath in the morning, would I wake up in the new light?

As I'm still putting together my top album list of 2010, 
I've been combing through everything to make sure that I haven't missed something.
And sure enough I had.
Ryan Bingham's alt-country album is one that I missed out on and have only recently discovered, 
so I want to call some attention to it now.
Check out this heartbreaker:

Through all of my sorrow, you can hear me say, I know we can make it.

Going through my albums from 2010 to start putting together my top list and came across this great reissue again.
I'll be working this particular track into my DJ sets:

Theme for snowflakes and bells.

Just finally catching up with the Feeling Today EP from the band, Botany, that was released a few months ago on Western Vinyl.
Reminds me at times of mid-90's Mo' Wax stuff, along with early 2000's IDM.
Perfect winter weather music to make you feel cozy.
The whole EP is awesome.
Really digging it.

Shocking, shaking.

Got a promo of Egon from Stones Throw's latest effort in his ongoing aural archaeology series.
This time it comes from Indonesia. Indonesian psych prog/funk/rock to be exact.
It's called "Those Shocking, Shaking Days. Indonesian Hard, Psychedelic, Progressive Rock and Funk: 1970 - 1978" and the whole album kills it.
Check out the title track:
