For Tonight…
I was watching SYTYCD tonight and Lykke Li came on and I was reminded of how much I liked a few of the songs off her 2008 album, although the album as a whole didn’t speak to me she still is unique and awesome. Tired… Bed… Enjoy. m...
So Caught Up
Not very talkative this evening. Playing something a lot more mainstream (and yes Warner Bros. is freaking mainstream to me, I know, I am a snob), Rachael Yamagata seems just right… She takes us to a darker place on this follow up album and I ...
Ahn Trio Melodies
I fell in love with this song last night when I heard it on SYTYCD. It is so very beautiful… Perfect. The whole routine along with this song brought chills. Ahn Trio are sisters who were trained classically in violin, piano and cello. They blen...
A Little Romance
Hello world! Something romantic and beautiful this Friday morning to take you into the weekend. Matthew Mayfield is a singer songwriter from Birmingham, AL and he creates delightfully sweet acoustic guitar driven songs. This song comes from his 2008 ...
Random and Beautiful
Random I know… But I was watching SYTYCD a couple of weeks back and a couple did a dance to Koop featuring Ane Brun off the 2007 Koop Island album. I hadn’t really listened to her since I checked out her album A Temporary Drive in 2006...
At the tops of my lungs
Lets just jump right in shall we? I will be the first to admit I am high strung to say the least, it is just my nature, my mothers side obviously. I have limited patience. The only problem with this is that I can’t fake it. Damn it to hell. Som...
Sweet Dream
My mom is having surgery tomorrow (well for most of you reading this it will be today, Wednesday) on her shoulder, pretty routine especially for her since she has the muscle tissue of Gumby. Always the mom though, “Don’t worry, I’ll...
With The Notes In My Ears
I just love this song… It brings a big smile to my face and makes me so very happy. This entire 2008 album was just lovely. Broderick’s music is gentle and comforting, perfect for a sleepy Wednesday night. Peter Broderick is currently o...
I watch the hours slow down
Nothing new has really been tickling my fancy or if it did tickle I am still laughing and enjoying it to post it just yet. So tonight we will rewind to 2008 as I share some music that I had missed… I have to go into court tomorrow to take care ...
Hear the leaves applaud the wind
Image found here I can sum up today’s day with one word, lame. Work, OBGYN appointment and traffic, no thank you. Tonight I just want to sit back, press play and turn the volume up… mp3: Birds Emilíana Torrini on myspace Me And Armini 20...
Towards The Sun
Quick post tonight but none the less important by any means. I took off early from work last night headed north to the El Rey theater in LA to see Alexi Murdoch… I had previously seen dearest Alexi at the Hotel Cafe, which was a solo acoustic p...
Defeated
I just simply feel beat down and defeated this evening… Work has been tough lately, I come home angry and annoyed at the world. Maybe I need a vacation… Maybe it is time to move on. I just feel so stuck with the economy the way it is. *si...
Oscar Night
The Oscars are this evening… I love going to see a movie… It is one of my favorite things to do aside from going to see a favorite band play live. There is something so amazing to me about making a great film, it is inspiring to know al...
All Weekend I Heard The Sound of Rain
This is really how beaitiful it is outside right now… It has been a glorious weekend… I did nothing and it rained off and on… Beautiful white fluffy clouds graced us in the afternoons, rainbows, rain and even waterspouts just South...
This Weekend of Mine…
I got pulled over yesterday with my mom in the car… Yes, that is right, oh dear. My mom is a funny lady, but good god she is nuts! I knew he was going to pull me over as soon as I saw him behind me because my registration tags are expired. Fuck...
Another Fav Song of 2008
Along with my concern with my use of ellipses. This is an ellipsis (…) and I think I am addicted to using them. Just look at this page, I use them all the time! This is not a good thing. I need ellipsis rehab I think. Benoît Pioulard released ...
Happy New Year
Rather than posting a long list of some of my favorite tracks I thought I would post one of my favorite songs of 2008 that I have not posted on Untitled Records this year. It is from the always beautiful Aimee Mann , since hearing her in Magnolia, ...
Contrast Podcast Festive Fifty
I am compiling a list of some of my favorite songs of 2008 unfortunately it is taking me a little while… Plus I have so many I think I may have to do something different this year. We will see. Expect that over the Holidays. I have not particip...
Favorite Albums of 2008
I wasn’t sure I would get through it, there was some anguish and a little squirming but this is simply because I am terribly indecisive. This year was filled with some amazing debut albums and some solid albums from some of the great veterans. ...
Department of Eagles
Just listening tonight… mp3: In Ear Park In Ear Park 2008 (4AD) Department of Eagles on myspace Available at Amazon and eMusic...
I Could Use A Little Magic…
A magic carpet ride. *Sigh* It was a rough day… My job would be great if all I did was check artwork for print and I didn’t have to worry about communicating with the clients. Trying to explain printing to someone who has no idea how it w...
Hollywood Adventure Bites The Dust
MILK the new Gus Van Sant film was released this week at the ArcLight in Hollywood… Figured I would try to catch the 4PM showing today… Silly me. They closed down Sunset Blvd and Hollywood Blvd not to mention the surrounding streets for a...
Sweet Sweet Daniel Martin Moore
*Sigh* *Bats eye lashes and blushes* Daniel Martin Moore creates simple acoustic indie/folk which stirs the heart and relaxes the soul… Seriously I am not kidding. I am like a puddle on the floor when I listen to him. His debut album is dreamy ...
Santogold’s Debut
It has taken me awhile to grasp this debut album by Santogold, Santi White is the unique voice behind this amazing debut album. White draws on so many influences on this album and does a damn good job of mixing it all together into a new unique sound...
Stars How I Love Thee
They just get better and better… I mean there is something so tender about their music. This is an achingly dreary EP with a live version of an older song of theirs, Going, Going, Gone. The EP is a mix of a little electronica along with some be...
Aaron Thomas, Follow The Elephants
Oh man… *sigh* I woke up this morning and did not want to get out of bed. I was far from happy this morning. Mondays suck and I always feel like there should be one more day off for all… Just one freaking day. I think I am bored at my job...
A Somber Night With Winterpills
Pretty quiet tonight… I guess I am in a bit of a funk. I have been so angry lately… But what is worse is that I have yet to really pin point why. Sorry folks, I don’t mean to be so blah this evening, I think it would be best for all...
Halloween With The Electric President
Sorry I have been so sparse lately, it has been hard finding the time or the energy to post… But my schedule is changing next week and it will allow me a bit more time in my day… I am looking forward to it, I have really missed blogging e...
Take My Breath Away
It is all about the music tonight… Ray LaMontagne is a bit more popular than the usual suspects here at Untitled but this singer/songwriter is a must have. Gossip In The Grain is a solid third album, Meg White is a 60’s psychedelic rock...
For Now Just Sing For Me
It is quite a daunting task to re-install everything and try to get re-organized again… It sucks to be frank. I mean yeah my computer is running faster but my life is all over the place… To make matters worse I totally forgot about backin...
