This is a rather bizarre video for the band Beach House. Directed by Eric Wareheim.

Here’s the latest and greatest from Foster the People. Honestly, I’m a little confused as to why they’ve adopted the boy band, synchronized dance moves, but as long as they’re not going full on “N Sync – Bye Bye Bye” I can deal with it.

This morning’s little gem is a cover of Pearl Jam’s, Just Breathe by Willie Nelson. Although it doesn’t deviate a lot from the original, it is very Willie Nelson with that country twang. Listen to it at Rolling Stone.

 

Cudi the Kid

Wow, this is greatness.  Steve Aoki, Kid Cudi, and Travis Barker put together this little party anthem. Enjoy.

This is such a fun song by the Las Vegas band, Imagine Dragons.

I absolutely love this song. So sad, so real, and so poignant. This is Delta Spirit’s latest video. The entire album is streaming online here. And if you love this song as much as I do, you can download it for free. Enjoy.

*Thanks Kelly McCormick for turning me on to this.

Primadonna Girl

I ran across Marina and the Diamonds yesterday. At first glance she reminds me of Lana Del Rey, with her sultry, forlorn look, but her sound is more upbeat. Primadonna has a catchy, pop sound.

A good friend of mine, Shaz, put together a fantastic little rundown of all the bands playing at Coachella. Here’s a one song sample of each band. Get your listen on  The Knowachella.

Anthm is an app that lets people control the music in the places they go. It’s pretty much a juke box in your hand. Launch the app, start a party then you and your friends can add music into one playlist. No need to use your own library of music, Anthm will stream all the music for you straight from Rdio.
