The Letter G

Gauntlet Hair hail from Denver. They're music creates sprawling landscapes of tripped out, reverb heavy, electro chill. It's nothing too ground breaking but it is weird, has a nice vibe and a nice edition to any mix. If that doesn't make sense to you then let me put it this way, if you are a fan of Animal Collective you'll be into this.

Here is a very different version of Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. It's not the bopin' version you are used to, this one goes down a much darker path. I would recommend that you check out not only the rest of Gnarls Barkleys live sessions but all of the other From The Basement sessions from artists like My morning Jacket and Radiohead.

Do you like your music to be fun? I know I do! So does the band The Go! Team. If you can't already tell by the name of the band, this band is all about making stadium anthem songs to get you pumped up. They blend elements of hip hop and rock perfectly into a super charged ball of energy, and then hurdle it at you. They are great for those, like me, who have trouble getting motivated. Check out their new album Rolling Blackouts for more great music.

It's Sunday, it's sunny, and I'm feeling good despite the fact that I am looking at a really crappy up coming week filled with mandatory overtime. Sometimes you just need music with a positive message.
Grits - My Life Be Like Ooh-Aah

I am a HUGE fan of a show called Trailer Park Boys. This morning I watched a short documentary about how it all came together and how it was produced. It was pretty interesting. I also watched an episode that they recently created that was supposed to be an ending to the series but the thing is, they already closed it out with what I thought was a nice ending to the series. The first ending left them in a good place, but this new ending episode did not. It did however leave the series open in a way that if they wanted to they could continue the story line. However judging by the so called finale, I don't know if they should. It didn't really impress me and it felt very forced. Sometimes it's better to just let sleeping dogs lie. P.S. The only thing this show and this song have in common is The Great White North, Canada.

I put my itunes on random and away we go.

Sometimes I think about scoring things, and I mean scoring in the musical sense. I am always thinking of what song would be good for a certain situation. I am pretty sure that was the same thinking behind this song and band. Someone was at a high school football game repeating after cheerleaders and thought "Man if I could combine this all into some sort of music score it would be great.
The Go! Team - Huddle Formation

Everytime I listen to this band I want to sit on a old wooden porch overlooking a field and sip some spiked lemonade. This song is way faster paced than most of their songs. I guess that's one of the reasons they call it a rocking chair.
The Avett Brothers - Gimmeakiss

Get out your wingtip shoes, throw on a fedora, or put on your best twrilin' dress cause it's time to do some jitter buggin'. This crazy cat knows how to blow, man. Some good ol' be bop jazz saxaphone style.
Gene Ammons - Jivin' Around (No Longer Available)

I honestly have never listened to this song before and I don't have much to say about it. I have heard some songs by the Wave Pictures before and I really like them. This song seems to be pretty fun and like the last song has a sax-a-ma-phone!
The Wave Pictures - Bumble Bee (No Longer Available)

Yup this one is an oldie, back when R&B was actually rhythm and blues. Someday I would love to host a party where I just play old hip wigglers like this. You know like in that movie Dirty Dancing where the chick carries watermelons and they are doing their naughty dances. It'd be a riot!
Banny Price - You Love Me Pretty Baby

I find this song a little repetitive in the lyric department for my taste, but I can not get over the singers velvety delivery. I love the bass line and the drums, it's a killer combo. I like how it's just a chill sort of sad song but it's got a beat that doesn't make you feel way depressed. The song has a very unique ending to. Not to sure I am digging the name choice for the band. It reminds me too much of that Common song. At any rate, it's still a pretty good vibey song.
