Hey y'all --- sorry about the lack of blogging for the past few months. But not to worry --- we are back!

Hot Chip is a "complete band". Their singles are great, their albums are well conceived, their concerts are parties, and their music videos stand alone as works of art. Here is their new video for their single "One Life Stand".
Some of NYC's finest get together to remix A Keys' "Empire State of Mind 2". (Wouldn't that just be Empire State of Mind 3?) They aren't going to let this song go huh?
Beach House has a new record named Teen Dream ready to come out on January 26th of next year. I can't stop thinking about how a friend once described the Brazilian soccer team as a "Cream Dream".
Stephen Colbert lends a hand to Alicia Keys' on Empire State of Mind II --- "The Upper Middle Class Remix"!!!

After 6 years of dealing with the guilt alone I must share...
6 years ago I went to see a concert at Giants Stadium - one of those multi stage - not very fun - full of big bands events. Radiohead and Beastie Boys headlined which was pretty awesome but the big deal looking back was the fact that Elliot Smith played the smaller stage. What I am hear to admit is that I chose not to head out and check out his performance. A few months later he was found dead.
